the son Of poor farmer and had many early
prlYauons. He was a member OF the firm OF
Williamson, Burrough a Co, who carried ON
the dry goods business on Market street

about his school before he signed the viii.
His physicians last week had told him that II
he had any important business to transact he

Prompt Action OF American Managers
Prevents Crash.
PARIS, March s. The sensation OF the day
here was the blow given that great financial
concern, the Compton d'Escompte, by the
suicide Of NJ Denfort- Rochereau, its man
aging director, in consequence Of its compli-
cations with the copper syndicate There
was tremendous run on the bank.
Had relief not come from the United States,
through the action Of the managers Of the
American mines, there would have been u
crash, nor is the danger entirely over yet.
The excitement which caused the run on the
Compton d'Escompte subsidized later in the
day, with the assurance that the copper syn
dieate had tided over its peril Shares Of the.
bank closed at 665 francs, which shows that
il has not been seriously shaken. Uneasiness
with reference to the syndicate has not en-
tirely disappeared Thus what threatened to
DO panic has been averted; but confdenca
cannot be thor oughly restored until the siti-
eide Of NJ Denfort- Roc hereau and the faiIuns
and flight Of NJ Ephrussi, a son-in-law Of tha
