called at the state department TO-DAY ana
had half hours interview with oecie-

formal. and in fact, it could not nave peen
otherwise. as the commissioners, peinS
unprovded with credentials tn have fTem NO f fo

missioner closely as to the authority W
which he appeared, what the commission
was doing here, and as to Hawaiian az
fairs generally. TO all these questions
Mr.. Wideman responded freely, aSd

patient from Il house on Arthur street in

ASSETS ARE LARGE.
Gossard Investment Company Max es
an Assignment at Kansas


Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. CALVIN H.
GOssard for the Gossard Investment
company this morning filed deeds of as
signment for the benefit of creditors.
Ex-Postmaster f. B. Nofsinger is named
as assignee. The assets are placed at
1921 800 and the liabilities at S191.2S3.
Considerable business was done in New
England, where the heaviest losers are
located, and it is said many parties in
the East were caught for big amounts.
The company was organized IN 1880
with Il paid-up capital of 100000 and
dealt principally in bonds. The capital
stock was subsequently raised up into
the hundreds of thousands, but before
the company's failure was reduced, at
that time being 100000. Bad loans
and stringent times are said to have
caused the collapse.
The company loaned heavily here on
real estate and then sold the loans III the
East after guaranteeing them. When
the notes became due the makers could
not pay them and the holder of the notes
fell back on the Gossard company. Pay
ing out cash on these notes and then fore
closing upon them, getting in return real
estate greatly impaired i'll value. and in
turn exchanging this in cancelling the
company's Indebtedness, caused the fail
ure. The holders of these notes are scat
tered all over the East, numbering into
the hundreds, and they are caught in
various sums ranging from $1,000 to 500
900 or so. Names are unobtaInable at
this time
Mr.. Gossard today stated that it was
too early to say whether the company
would be able to resume business. He
gave the impression, however, that the
affairs of the company would be wound
up as soon as possible and the firm go
out of business altogether. He could not
say whether the assets would cover the
Fatalities. They were composed princi-
pally of impaired Kansas City realty, and
all depended upon their ability to dispose
of this property. He placed the liabilities

Montgomery, Ala, Aug. THE returns

says he is confident of not less than 70,
900 majority, that the Senate has good
Democratic majority and the house at

assets about $240.000. Last year the
BUSINESS of the house amounted to over
$60OOO0, but it fell off greatly this year

toners, caused the assignment The out
standing accounts due the firm amount
to 100000.

Of this place, have assigned. Liabilities
about $4,000; assets about the same.
