President of the Company Re-
pudiates Moore Brothers
Operations.
Examiner Walker Says the Concern
Is Not Liable for Notes Issued
Without Authority.

CHICAGO, ILL, Oct. A morning
paper says: President O. c. Barbor of the
Diamond Match Company, in circular to
stockholders which will be issued in the
next day or two, will announce as his
opinion that the $79S. 767 which was used
by the Moore Bros. as margins on the
7,750 shares OF stock purchased for the
account of the company was illegally
used, and that it is claim against the
Moore Bros. which will be held against
them until it is liquidated. President
Barbor will send the stockholders report
from Edwin Walker, the new director and
general counsel of the company.
Examiner Walker gives it as his opinion
that notes issued by the Diamond Match
Company were issued withau authority,
and that the Moores NAV be held liable
for that amount. Mr.. Walker also says
the Diamond Match Compa is not and
cannot be held to be i'm plicated in any
speculative transactions for the Moore
Broth -rs, and that the full extent of its
liza bilities Is the amount of the notes issued
and discounted at the banks. The COM
pany, in his opinion, is not bound to take.

Robinson, trustee, and for the account of
