The Lake Charles echo. [volume] (Lake Charles, Parish of Calcasieu, La.) 1876-1898, 1883-08-18

The announcement last Saturday
morning Of the suspension of the Lake
Charles Lumber company, created
great deal of comment and some lit
tie excitement in business circles.
Wild rumors were freely circulated,
and as is usually the case, the situa.
ton was exaggerated in many in
stances. In order that our readers
NAV have the benefit Of truthful ac-
count Of the affair, as far as develop
ments have yet taken place, We vii!
simply give a plain statement of facts
as we have been enabled to learn them,
without attempting to 20 into details.
The amount for which the company
have failed is estimated to be in the
nrighborhood Of $4,000. As yet, it
is not exactly known how near the
assets of the concern will approach
these figures but it is reasonably safe
to presume that'thcy will not fall far
hort Of the liabilities. The mill alone,
~ say nothing Of accounts. logs, lands
and IunJer 90 the yards, is worth every
dollar Of $40 600. Hence it may readi-
~ be seen that the conpauy's crcdl-
tors, in any event, are not likely to
sutfcr much loss if indeed, they lose
anything. A meeting of the credi-
tors will be called at as early period
as practicable, when the company will
exhibit a statement of liabilities and
assets and an adjustment Of affairs will
he effected. DR.. a. H. Moss is author
izod to act for Galveston parties in
interest, who, with himself, are the
chief creditors, and in case "a satisfac-
tory exhibit is made by the company,
it Is possible ARA }gcmcnts may be
perfected by which they can at once
resume operations without further de-
lay. If otherwise, as matter Of
course receivers will be appointed. In
either case, it is not probable the mill
will long remain idle. There is a feel
ing of sympathy existing 10 the com
muujty for the members of the com
