City of Glasgow undoubtedly exercises de-
pressing influence on the shipping interests
on the Clyde. The failure of Potter, Will

but 1t now transpires that Mr.. Potter, the
head of the firm, was director of the Bank
OF the City of Glasgow and had received for
his house s1sO.OOO $500, OOO) in advances
from the bank. The shipping business was
extremely dull before this crash, and rumors
were rife concerning firms in the shipbuild-
ing trade. The only suspension since, how
ever, has been w. Simons Il Co., of Renfrew.

half the factory population Of Blackburn is
