goes, that this was better thing for the
farmer than certified check of an ele-

TO ship their wheat to the firm issuing
it. Mr.. Robbins is said to have taken it
as an imputatiOn on the standing of his
company. hence he issued the now cele.

that the world owes every nan liv-

If the city hires loo men these men

This plan is not a new one by any
means. L can remember that the city
of ST. Louis tried this plan. The city
orders were accepted by all mer-
chants and for lakes, and passed
for their lace value as well as green
backs. The depression was relieved
and the plan worked well. If The plau
OF any one very similar is not adopted

AS stated in the GLOBE yesterday
morning, at meeting of the elevator
men, held on Thursday evening, COM
mitUee was appointed to interview the
jObbers and See whether they would re-
ceive the certified checks with which it
is proposed TO purchase wheat. In the
meantime wheat is coming into many of
the stations Tor sale, with the check
question still unsettled. 1t may now be
stated that at the meeting referred to, it
WAS conceded that this grain must be
taken care Of. and the only way in which
to do it is to pay for it with cash. This,
it Is understood. will he done, and it is
said that all of the elevator companies
have made arrangements to do SO.
a leading elevator man said to a
GLOBE reporter last evening that his
company already had ample funds at
every point where it operates with which
TO pay for wheat. He said Furthermore
that, in his opinion, there would be
within few days plenty of money
available for this purpose: and that re-
course to the check system would not
be necessary.

The attorneys mentioned recently OBJ

appear before notary in Minneapolis
Aug. 81 and testify. This order he ig-

The Equitable Company Will Be
Handled by a Receiver. -
NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-The bill of
complaint, in asking for receiver for
the Equitable Mortgage company, states
that the business of the company under
ordinary circumstances is prosperous
but by reason of the present financial
conditions it Is unable to collect on g
mortgages, loans and securities held Bly,
it. which have matureG. By reason Of
the depression 1t is further stated thar
the credit OF the company has been ill.,
paired, and renewals of mortgages can
only be negotiated at sacrifice and
assets, which. under ordinary condi-
tions, could be readily realized upon,
are useless for the purposes of raising
money.
The principal property of the com.
DaDy is in the state of New York, but it
has also valuable estates in Missouri,
Pennsylvania, Kansas, Arkansas, Texas,
Louisiana. Mississippi, Nebraska, Iowa,
Colorado, North and South Dakota,
Minnesota. Georgia and Alabama.
In his answer to the complaint Presi-
dent Fowler admits all the allegations
contained i'll the bill of complaint. He
further says that the financial condition
at present has impaired the standing of
the company as financial institution,
which heretofore has been uGquestioned,
as it has always been able TO meet its
obligations without difficulty.
Inability to realize on securities and
collect money due from holders OF mort
cages will prevent the company from
meeting obligations maturing Sept.
and succeeding months. He therefore
joins in the application to the court for
receivers, as otherwise the assets OF de-
PENDANTS will be wasted by lcvies and
attachments. Suits will be Instituted, he
says, by creditors, the property sacri-
feed, wasted, squandered, TO the ir
| reparable damage of the defendant, the
creditors and stockholders. Ultimately
| he believes that all creditors will be
paid in full. The surplus Is $S00. 900,
