NEw ioRI, Nov, 1S.-The following
statement is authorized by the olliciaIp
OF the North American company: "The
reports as to tho condition Of the North
American company are uniounded and
extremely unjust. The company has
no outstanding call obligations, and i,s
time loans are held by comparatively
few persons and institutions of great
financial strength, and are abundantlv
secured by colIa.erals, which, even at
the panic prices prevailing during the
lost few days, could have been sold for
a sum sufficient to pay all its obligations
and leave q large and substantial sur
plus to the credit OF the company. The
company has also large amount Of val
liable assets in its treasury which are
not placed at all, and is, and always has
been, perfectly solvent. Owing to the
feyerish and uncer tain condition of the
market, it was thought wise to call the
creditors together, in order. to get their
assurances that'the assets OF the compa-
ny pledged to then, as collateral would
not be sacrificed. These assurances have
been cheerfully given, and committee
OF creditors was appointed to cooperate
with the officers uf the company in
preventing any needless sacrifice OF its
securities. The creditors were called TO.
gether simply to satisfy them of the
sound condition of the company, and to
obtain their cooperation. This COM
mittee has made made no assignment
