BACKER DIED OF PNEUMONIA
The Bankrupt Note Brokers' Ply.
sician Makes a Statement.

Abraham DGcker, the note broker, Of 2s5
Broadway, who failed last August for
S4,OoO,0 900, Is lying dead at his home at 33l
West Fifty-eighth street.
HIS death was brought on by an acute at
tack OF bronchitis, though It Is said that his
nerves were unstrung by his business col
lapse and the criminal action instituted
against him, which was Just on the eve OF
being brought to trial in General Sessions
Mr.. Backer was siXty-eight years old. In
1865 he came to New York from savannah,
and started in the cotton commission busl-
ness. lie finally established himself as q
note broker, and for the last ten years had
done very large business In handling COM
mercial paper.
The volume OF his business was estimated
at $15,000,000 year. He handled paper not
only for the best commercial houses In this
city, but he had large Southern business.
HIS failure was due to some unsuccessful
enterprises in Georgia and Alabama in which
he was largely Interested. In order TO carry
on the construction OF these railroads In the
south hc resortod to all sorts OF eXpedlents
to raise money to make advances.
securities which had been deposited with
him as collateral for loans, and securing the
payment OF notes which he negotiated for his
customers were rehypothecated by him. and
when the failure came hundreds OF thousands
OF dollars worth Of securities were missing.
IL was on cnarRe OF incorporation OF
this sort that Judge Horden OF savannah, had
Baeker arrested and indicted.
HIS anairs are still In tangle, and his as

CYRUS ". FIELDS NEST EGGS.
Records Prove that He Still Holds
Much Property.
Belief that Edward NJ. Fields Steal
ings Have Been Traced.

Recent developments show that the affairs
Of cyrus W. Field are not In such desperate
condition as was described q few days ago
1t was said that when he lay Frustrated, after
learning OF his sons alleged insanity and the
extent OF the disaster TO the younger mans
firm, he had declared that he was completely
ruined, and was as poor as on the day he was
born.
Mr.. Field Is not even reduced to straight
ened circumstances by his soils misdoings, II
the evidence OF tho County Clerks office at
White Plains is to be depended on. The rec
ords there show that Mr. Field holds mort
gage for s45o.OoO on property In westcnester
County, which is now controlled by what is
known as the Ardsley Syndicate. The prop
erty comprises 700 acres Of land, situated
near Ardslcy Towers, cyrus Fields country
scat, and was for many years owned by him.
year agolast August he sold this property
to the syndicate, which purchased It for the
purpose OF laying out a suburban village.
The Syndicate paid 100000 down, and gave
the mortgage which Mr. Field stlll holds for
the balance.
The records at White Plains show that the
mortgage still stands In Mr.. Fields name,
and no assignment OF It has ever been re-
corded. Edward N. Field had nothing what
ever to do with this transaction, according to
Charles Henry Butler, the counsel for the
syndicate.
1t Is said that Mr.. Fields strong box still
contains many other valuable securities, and
that there is no danger whatever that he will
pass his declining years In poverty.
lie Is gradually recovering from his late i'll
ness, according to DR.. Fuller, his physician.
To-day he shows much more strength than
yesterday. when he was able to sit up almost
all day. 1t Is thought that he will be able to
drive out within u lew days. The condition
OF Mrs. Lindley. his daughter, is unchanged.
Assignee Gould still refuses to say anyt Thing
as to the condition OF the insolvent firms
affairsl What discoveries he may have made
he Keeps to himself.
In Wall street 1t Is believed that It is pretty
well known to the Assignee and those en-
gagged In untangling the iirms affairs, where
the vast sums OF money taken by Edward
Field went. The facts, however, are being
concealed, 1t Is alleged, TO enable the relatives
OF Field TO make good some OF the losses
which innocent persons have suffered because
OF his rnisdoingS.
There is also suspicion that Edward NJ.
Field is not 50 crazy as has been given out
According to the reports from the Mt. Vernon
Asylum he Is doing well, and has become to
all appearances perfectly sane.
HIS manner Is said to be natural, and his
conversation on all ordinary topics perfectly
rational. Care is taken to avoid reference to
his business troubles, for that subject always
seems to excite him.
Lawyer Almon Goodwin, counsel for the as
stRnee, this morning protested that he was
utterly ignorant as to what Field had done
with the money which had come into his
hands.
