A COLOSSAL SMAsHUP.
A $7OO,OOO Business Failure in st.
Paul


ST. PAUL, Mimi, June 90 Special Telc-
gram to TIE BEE. The largest business
smashup that has occurred in St Paul in
many years came to light this afternoon IN
the assignment of the Eureka Improvement
company. The amount involved is 500, 600,
considerable of which is held by eastern par
ties. Stock is held by st. Paul business men
as follows: d. d. Merrill, SlOO,0O0; DIR. ].
H. Bryant, 100000; A. NJ Lawton, s25 900;
A. Z. Clark. $4,000; C. w. Clark, So, 900;
Thomas Smith, Si2,00) and j. w. Jamison,
$4,000. The Eureka company was organized
to deal in lands and electric motor enter
prlses in South st. Paul. The assignment was
made to Thomas Il. Smith, one of the
largest stockholders, on an attachment suit
brought by Iowle q Fitz, surveyors. The
were well prepared to meet it. The COM
pany was organized to construct ana operate
an electric motor, with terninl at South
Park and Minneapolis. It fought for long
time with the city council to secure a fran
chlSe for proposed elevated road, an cxper-
mental mile of which it had already built at
South park at cost of $4,000. After much
dicliering between the city ana the company
the council offered TO grant franchise to the
company with the privilege of u right of way
to the west bank of the river, but further
than that the council falcd to grant. The
company failed to secure the route through
the city, and after having already purchased
large and valuable tracts of land in Dakota
county along their proposed line of transit,
the concern was forced to care for and main
tain its great property holdings. The mar
ket declining, and the concern thus crippled
the little less than half million
dollars put into the undertaking by we'll
known men of this city was fast being alb
sorbed by the mortgages upon the vast acre
age purchased in Dakota county. One fore
closure followed another until the pressure
eliminated in the assignment. The stock
holders will lose nearly $500,00O. The in
debtedness, which is about 500, 900, is nearly
all secured by first mortgages upon property
upon which from a third to half Of the pur-
chase has been paid.
