MEETS THE MONEY KINGS.
CARLISLE TALKS TO THIRTY NEW york
BANKERS.
BOND QUESTION DISCUSSED.

junction Matter Considered-It
Is Believed That the Financiers
Have Agreed to Take the En-
tire Issue OF Bonds-The Secre.
tary Is Silent.
New YORK, Jan. 29.-By direction Of
Secretary Carlisle, Assistant Treasurer
Conrad n. Jordan sent out today invita-
tons to thirty bank presidents and Off
GERS of other prominent financial inSti-
tutions, asking them to meet the secre-
tary of the treasury at the subtreasury
at a conference lasting for an hour and
a half. At its conclusion several of the
bankers who were present said that
Secretary Carlisle had spoken at length
OH the act of the Judiciary committee,
saying that he thought this resolution
showed the legality of the issue.
He also said that he believed the reso-
luton would fail to pass. Referring to
the action OF the Knights of Labor, he
said that he was Of the opinion that the
decision of the courts would undoubt-
edly affirm his right to issue the bonds.
The bankers present asked nu merous
questions concerning the points at issue.
They assured the secretary that if the
legality of the bonds was sound. he
could rely on it that all bonds would be
taken in New York, Internationally
and above the upset price. The general
report of those present at the con-
ference was that the proposed issue was
much strengthened by the discussion.
One of the members Of the clearing
house committee said he was convinced
that in the minds of those who had
heard Mr.. Carlisle's statement Of the
case there was no doubt of the safety
OF the bonds as an investment. Their
legality, he said, was assured.
How far the issue has been subscribe d
for could not be learned. The con-
ference was said to have been the re-
suit of withdrawal of subscription
which had been made.

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE.
He returned to Washington by the
6:20 train this afternoon.
Brayton Ives. one of MIR. Carlisle's
staunchest supporters, stated after the
meeting that he regarded the issue per-
fectly legal, as we'll as Secretary Car
llsle's right to use the money as he saw
fit. He also thought there would be lit
tie, if any, difficulty Ill disposing of the
issue in New York city alone. He
thought that as an investment they
could not be surpassed by any govern
ment security now in the market at the
same figures, being absolutely gilt
edged.
Another bank pre- sident, however.
who. for political reasons. would not
permit his name to be used, took an en-
tirely different view.
Notwithstanding the fact the issue
may be perfectly legal" said he, 1.-The
judiciary committee action, be it hostile
or otherwise, has been made public,
and the latter now rather doubt the
secretary's legal right to make the
issue. There are no more cautious per-
sons in the country than those who ill.,
vest their money in government securi-
ties. The fact they are willing to accept
such a low rate of interest shows that.
Now, when at practically the same figure

bankers and brokers will look at it
from business standpoint purely. and
not because of any patriotic motives.
This is season of profound peace, and
not war. In the latter case we would
be willing to help the government. We
would buy them to SELL, and not to
keep, and if it is tho oHght the investors

tary Carlisle returned to Washington
this evening he was much disappoint-

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 30. .-Advices
from China announce the complete
annihilation by an earthquake of the
town of Kuchan, Persia. Twelve thou
sand persons were killed in the awful
disaster. and where was once an
important and beautiful city OF
10000 people, there Is now
nothing but death and terror. Ten
thousand corpses had been recovered at
the date of the dispatch. In addition

$4,000 cattle are said to have perished in
the upheaval of the earth. Details of
the terrible event are not given in
the dispatch. The town of Kuchan was
a walled city of Persia. 1t is situated
about eighty miles northwest from
Meshed. on the route to Shirvan, and is
enclosed by the HaZarmaZiai and Aldagh
mountains. The town lies at the foot
of Shah Jahan KIh, mountain which
rises to the lofty height of 1000 feet
above the sea. The city itself has an
altitude of 5000 feet. 1t was a most
delightful and prosperous place. and its
sudden and awful destruction is one OF
the greatest calamities ever known i'll
Persia. The town was the residence of
the district governor. 1t was surrounded
by rich and extensive gardens and vine
Yards, the fruits and wines of which are
noted for their superiority.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. .29.-The district

fies, and last summer. when the finan-
cial outlook was the darkest, and banks
were tottering and falling on ev-
cry side, the city of Duluth gave
to the American Loan and Trust COM
pany of this city, the sum of $4,000 for
the purpose of paying off and taking up
$4,000 of city Indebtedness. The said
company, in place of so doing, merely
took up 1000 of city Indebtedness, and
unlawfully and without any authority
retained the other $4,000 thereof, since
which time said trust company has
failed to return said amount to the city,
although requested 20 do so. At the
time the same occurred legal steps
would have Immediately been taken,
but for the protestationS from the other
banks that the same would do the city

and bring widespread disaster on our
CITY. In addition to said S15,C0 there is
on deposit with said company the sum
of S12,5 $50 belonging to the city Of Du-
luth. So far the city of Duluth has lost
nothing by the delay, and the time has
now past when there is any fear of
bringing disaster to other institutions
by any action the city may take IN the
premises. The city attorney feels
he would not be justified in
taking decisive steps In the mat
ter without Instruction from your
honorable body. Your financial COM
mttee has had full knowledge of all of
the above facts from the time of the oc-
currence thereof. and L now lay the
facts plainly before you so that you may
take such action as may best protect the
city, and if an offense has been COM
mltted see that the guilty party is prop
erly dealt with. | would further state
that immediately on the discovery of
what had been done, Mr.. Elder was re-
moved from the trust company and its
affairs placed in the hands of Mr.. Rich

ness to have its books examined by an
expert appointed by your honorable

HISTORY OF THE COMPANY.
The American Loan and Trust Com
pany of Duluth was incorporated under
the laws of Minnesota in December,
1887, with 100000 capital. A. w. Brad
ley vas president, George A. Elder vice
present and manager and A. Ii. Brown
secretary and treasurer. Among the
directors are William Mckinley, Clin-
ton Markell and James Billings,
with the officers ex officio.
The institution got into "trouble''
some six months ago under Elders
management and he surrendered the
management to w. E. Richardson, who
is now in charge. The so-called
"troubIe" seems TO have arisen from a
reasonably successful effort on the part
of some of the officers to borrow the
bank. They so far succeeded in this
direction that, but for the aid OF
other institutions in Duluth and
the leDlency of the city and
county authorities, the exposure
made tonight by Mayor d'Autremont
would have occurred six months ago,
but it can now no longer be concealed,

City Treasurer Fred j. Voss to ask his
explanation of the mayors letter. The
treasurer was not anxious to give much
