THE SWEET FAILURE.
e2.OOO,OO Borrowed of Boston Banks
They Promise to Pay Their
Creditors In Full.
Rnsrox. Mass March G.

BosroN, Mass, March g..
1t is stated that c. A. SWEET & Co. have
| borrowed about s. 900 900 ftom Boston banks
on collateral recently. and that they had
about 500, 900 of the Massachusetts, Central
bonds. Mr.. Perkins, member of the firm.
says they hope to pay in full.
| The Post says: 1t is reported here that the
failure of c. A. SWEET Co., is partly due to
the decline from los to "a in the bonds, and
from 40 to sid in the stock of the Connecti-
cut Valley Railroad. The firm of Edwards,
SWEET Co., New York, are not involved.
From conversation with bankers and brokers
who are supposed to enjoy the. confidence OF
Sweet Co., it is supposed that the carrying
| of a large amount of securities of the Mas
sachusetts has caused the disaster. They
have gradually increased their interest in the
road, and being obliged to sustain the market,
large losses have followed.
The Massachusetts, Central Railroad bonds
have fallen from l0l last summer TO so on
Saturday. The sales of public stocks have
been small, but SWEET & Co.. have been oblig-
ed to purchase heavily to sustain the market.
As result the firm is now greatly OVERLOAD
ed. The effect on the market, in the opinion
of brokers, will be serious collapse in the
Massachusetts, Central.
The personnel of the firm is as follows
Chas. A. SWEET, who has not been active in
business for some months, but who is reputed
to be worth fully Sl.000,00O outside of the
banking firm; Mr.. G.. w. ID. REILLY, Mr.. A.
w. Perkins and Mr.. Walter II. SWEET. The
impression now prevails that the failure will
not involve any other large house to a serious
effect.
| The members of the embarrassed firm OF
Chas. A. SWEET & Co., with full force of
clerks were at their office on State street I'M
til late hour tonight, making thorough
examination of their accounts. with the view
of ascertaining the true state of their affairs.
A detailed statement of their liabilities and
assets was drawn up, but this they refused to
furnish for publication until it had first
been submitted to the creditors. A summary of
this document shows the gross liabilities of the
| firm to be from 81, 750, 900 to 80, 500, 900. In
the matter of assets it is shown that, reckon
ing the other securities at a fair market value.
and the Massachusetts Central railroad bonds
at so, the last sales were so Saturday, they
can, if a fair extension of time is allowed by
the creditors in which to realize upon their
securities, pay their liabilities in full. They
hold $500, 900 in Massachusetts Central bonds.
Tho balance of their assets good standard
securities, nearly if not all in the hands of
Boston banks as collateral, and these credit
ors will undoubtedly grant any reasonable
extension asked.
