this afterno. n: "The liabilities are
about Sl0,OO0,OO0 and the assets at
present market prices largely exceed
that sum. The liabilities are due
aim 81 entirely to banks aud banker
or loans made in the course Of business
and are we'll secured. The cause of
the Suspension Was inability of the
firm to borrow the necessary amount
Of cash required IN the days business.
The firms transactions were very
large. it being nect ssary to borrow
several millions daily. The firm had
abundant collateral today and 1t vas
not for lack of security, but INABILITY
to make 1t available, WAS the sole
cause. 1t was simI ly q matter Of alb.
soluie inability to get money on the
best securities. owing to the ex'raor-
dinary money sringency now prevail
ing. As securities are a special line,
there may be disposition on the part
of creditors to sacrifice them on the

suicide. The character of the securi.

senior member OF the firm, said: "0ur
fsilure is due to the simple fact that
we could not get money to carry on
