business Failures.

PHILADELPHIA, January 22.-Third
street is agitated over the troubles AFFECT
ing houses in the morocco trade. Inc
principal house in trouble is d. y.
Stokes, importers OF hides and skins. Mr..
Stokes says the firm will decide to-day
what course they will take. The hrm
attributes their embarrassment to the fall
of George w. Hunnell i Co., who were
unable 10 meet their obligations, and re.
lied on L. & @. Stokes to meet for them.
This firm is indebted to z. 81 G. Stokes
over 100000.
The following houses are also reported
insolvent: John Deemer Il Sen, S9O,-
600; VIM. r. Stewart i Co., Sl20OOO;
Hammond IL Driker, $4,000; Sarvey,
Lynch Sc Co., $4,000; Stewart Allen,
$4,000; Edward Evans il Co., $50, OOOi
q. Bockins, $4,000; L. G. Baker Manu-.
featuring Co, of Wilmington, Sl90,OOO.
L. & q. Stokes are creditors for about
three-fourths of all the liabilities of the
above named firms. They decline to
| state the total amount of their own lia.
biities, but claim to hold paper OF other
morocco firms to amount from S70O,OOO
TO 100000
Ellis Stokes states that his firm has
been keeping other firms going for years,
and were crippling themselves in trying
to accommodate them. We had, be
said, to push them at last, which resulted
in failure. Our annual business will
probably amount to one million dollars,
We shall go out of business, but only
| temporarily. 1t is an almost Inextrica-
bic mass of obligations OF one
to the other, and l would
be willing to go through
the bankruptcy court to settle up. .
George W. Hummel. of Hummel u
Co., deny that their failure to pay their
notes precipitated the trouble. He says
the cause OF the trouble was the failure
of L. u Q. Stokes to take up their notes
as accommodation paper. de further
says f. & &. Stokes were partners IN his
firm, and are therefore liable first as the
makers and then as endorsers of The
paper which went to protest.
