THE POOL DECISION.

Causes the Western Freight and Passen-
ger Association to wind Up Its Affairs.
CHICAGO, March 27.-A meeting Of the
leading roads in the Western Freight as
sociation was held here for the purpose Of
discussing the recent decision of the SUI
preme court and its probable effect on the
associations under which the westerns
have been working. b. +. Ayre, the gen
eral counsel Of the Illinois Central, was
chosen chairman Of the meeting. The con-
ference lasted the entire afternoon and
terminated in nothing, as far rs action Is
concerned No formal decision was reach
ed by the meeting, and no announcement
was made. The meeting was more for the
exchange OF views than for any other pur-
pose. lt was agreed, however, with few
dissenting voices, that the decision would
have the effect of doing away with tho
Western Freight association as It is at pres
ent organized. The form of the agreement
of this association is such as to bring It di-
rectly in confiss with the supreme court
decision, and the combined opinion of the
attorneys present was that it cannot con-
tinue.
The Western Passenger assooiationagree-
ment was not taken up, but the decision
made regarding the freight association is

practically the same lines, and If one Of
them is in the line of the decision the 9th
err must necessarily be so. It Is likely that
formal action win be taken in a few days
putting the Western Freight association

practical sense it is already dead
Z here is no question but that both the
passenger and freight associations will
be in operation within q short time but
in "a form different from that in which
they have been working up to the present
time
Opinions were divided at the meeting
as to whether it was most desirable TO on
deavor 20 bring about such legislation rs

similar to the western passenger and
freight associations. or TO continue tho as

those present favored tho former plan, but
It did not get beyond a mere discussion.

Loan AssocIATIoM FAILs.
It's Assets said 20 BE $4,000 short Of
Its Liabilities.

PHILADELPHIA March 27.-The Surety
Building and Loan association, whose
stockholders are well known residents Of
the northwestern portion OF the city, has
made an assignment for the benefit of
creditors. Charles B. d. Richardson, the
solicitor Of the association, is the assignee.
The Surety Building and Loan associa-
tion is 26 years old, and the news Of the
assignment was a great surprise to many
people The explanation Of the trouble
was furnished by the assignee, Mr.. Rich
ardson.
owe do not know just what shape the
association is in, % he said. An expert
accountant is now engaged on the books,
and until he has completed his work it
will be impossible to tell how we stand.
The Liabilities arc about S65. 600, aud as
the books look now the assets are about
slO 600 short of that amount.
Tho assignment was due TO the fact
that our secretary, George c. Thompson,
has apparently left the city A short time
ago the state bank examiner notified Mr.
Thompson that he would like to look into
the accounts Of the association. He fixed
