firm was in trouble, and its sales of North
ern Pacific preferred caused break in that
stock this morning. 1t was supposed that
the firm had passed the crisis. The firm
was carried down by the shrinkage In
Northern Pacific securities and the inability
of customers to respond to the call for m ar
gins.
b. Fl. Stern. attorney for the firm, gave out
the following statement concerning the
failure: "The suspension OF the firm is due
to the fact that one Of the partners. Theo-
dore Baldwin, was specializing on his own
account with the firms money. He lost in
this way about S150.000. Baldwin has con-
fessed everything. and is now at work help
ing an expert in Strengthening out the books.
The firm had no outstanding contracts on
exchange. having notified the firms with

contracts. The firm also sent around this

PROSECUTING THE JEWS.
Matters Are Becoming Steadily Worse

LONDON. Dec. 29.--Latest advices from

show that the persecution OF the Jews and
the inhumantiy OF the Gar sofficials toward
that un happy race Is greater than eyer be-
fore. Six edicts have been issued aiming
to disperss the Jewish subjects in Russia,
to weaken their position in the trading
centers and TO crush out their religion.
These edicts are enforced with the utmost
rigor and severity everywhere. In Moscow
the papers boast that since the beginning of
1891 10000 Jews have been converted TO tie
orthodox faith. The condition of the Jews,
in fact, except In Lodz and a few other
places, is becoming steadily worse, par
ticularly In the case OF those who have no
