sided in South Brooklyn, Pugilisi being
a nan of Tutolo. Pugilisi was dispos-

ONCE MORE ON IT'S FEET.
The Equitable Mortgage Company Re-
organized Under a Plan That
Nay Save Millions.
ITS ARMY OF STOCKHOLDERS HAPPY.
BY the Scheme Of Resumption Valuable
Chattel Mortgages Are Saved from
Practical Sacrifice.

Nearly all Of the 80, 900 creditors of the
Equitable Mortgage Company, which
failed last September, have agreed to
the reorganization scheme proposed by
a committee appointed for that pur-
pose, and a spec.a charter has been OBJ
tanned from the Legislature to start the
Equitable Securities Company, which
will assume the obligations and assets
Of the defunct corporation. now in the
hands of the receivers.
II this scheme proves successful the
Equitable will be the only one of the
numerous companies of this character
which went under in the financial de-
preston last year that has SO far been
able to resume.
