New York, Aug. 7.-Stocks were unset
tied during the greater part of the day,
owing to the rather unexpected engage
man & Bro. for Europe by the steamship
Augusta Victoria tomorrow. This
brings the total amount engaged and
shipped by this firm during the past three
weeks up to 3d. 600. 1t is stated the
firm will forward another large amount
of gold on Saturday. In addition to the

the plan of the reorganizers is given out
it will be found that the junior security
owners will have to bear the greatest
proportion of the expenses. In the after
noon the early sellers Of stock for the
