Failure of a New England Furnishing Com
pany, with Fourteen Branches.
BosToN, March 13.-The Atkinson House
Furnishing Company, with fourteen
branches in other New England towns. has
made an assignment to Charles +. Libby.
of Portland. and Costello & Converse, of
Boston. President Isaac Fl. Atkinson saws
that the liabilities are 1900 900 and that
the assets are estimated at SO, 1000 600. The
trouble WAS caused by the stringency in
the money market and inability to meet O
call loan on Saturday. Last year the CON-
psny did q business of $500 o coo. President
Atkinson says the firm will probably pay
it's debts in full. While the great
est portion of the indebtedness is to
firms In Boston and vicinity, there
are q number of creditors in New
York, Philadelphia and Chicago. The
company Is a Maine corporation. and has
been doing q very large business with its
various branches, it's headquarters being
at Portland. Isaac II. Atkinson, the presI-
dent of the company. has made an assign
ment of HE personal property. valued at
about $3.50. 600. for the benefit of the cred
itors of the corporation. In the opinion of
the legal advisers of the assignees, the In
debtedness will he found to be very much
larger than 81 500. 900. President Atkinson's
estimate. and may reach double that
amount. Il. A. i. Atkinson. the founder of
the corporation. retired from the business
some time ago. and has no interest In il at
the present time.
