Forced tn the Wall.

NEW YORK. Aug. 21.-Leipold We'll &

failed to-day. Their liabilities were esti-
mated by their attorneys. Rays & Green
baum, at 1925. 600. or the assets the at
torneys said they could to-day form little
idea. The failure appeared to take on
somewhat unusual form. The principal
creditor of the firm was Joseph Frankers
Sons. manufacturing jewelers., to whom
was owed about $50. 00o. Finding themselves
pressed by their creditors the members of
the firm transferred their merchandise.
book accounts and other assets to Joseph
Frankel's Sons. There was no assignment.
Mr.. Greenbaum described the failure as one
by transference.'' Strenuous exceptions
are expected from other creditors to this
action.
The failure of the firm was precipitated
by a refusal of the banks with which il
dealt to grant further discounts until
moneys already owing had been paid up:
TO the refusal of several creditors to grant
any extension of time. and TO request from
debtors for indulgencies and assistance.
The firm had had exceedingly poor bust
ness lately. Last year its safes amounted
to $500. 600. IL is said. This year they have
been only 5000 D since the lst OF January.
The firm is composed of Joseph Well, who
has been in the business for forty years
and Julius Koch.

NONUNIONISTS DISCHARGED.
Possible End of the Long Lockout Of
Union Flint Glass Workers.

Union Flint Glass Workers..
PITTSBURG. Aug. 21--Notices were
posted to-day in the South-side factories
of the United States Glass Company, now
operating, announced an indefinite shut
down. Individual notices were given the
%nonunion workmen employed by the COM
pany since it locked out the American
Flint Glass Workers Union members three
years ago. that their services would not
likely be needed again. and in the absence
of definite assurance of future employ
ment the men were advised to take work
elsewhere if they can find it. This may
mean the beginning of the end of one of
the greatest industrial conflicts ever
fought in this country. and it is probable
that the factories of the company through
out the country will be open again TO
union workmen and the long lockout
terminated. This will be only possible,
however. in the event that the company
restores the wage rate and working condi-
tons in force prior to July. 1898. The no.
tice of dismissal was wholly unexpected by
the nonunion men and has greatly angered
them. The majority of the employees were
brought from points outside of Pittsburg
and they are in poor shape to stand a loss
of work for any length Of time.
