HUNTINGTON WILL FIGHT.
Does Not Propose to Lose Control
OF the Central Pacific.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 19.-Collis P.
Huntington and his supporters In the d.
rectory of the Central Pacific Railway COM
pany are planning a great railroad deal.
Briefly, it is proposed to issue a blanket
mortgage covering the entire property of the
Central Pacific.
The alleged purpose Of the loan is the pay
ment of the funded debt of the corporation
to the government amounting in round num-
bes to S118,000,000. 1t Is asserted however,
by those who ought to know, that the Central
Pacific is hard pressed for funds, ard that
the purpose to place a blanket mortgage over
the road Is the first step on the part Of the
Huntington portion Of the stockholders to
offset the emphatic action taken some time
ago on the part of the Morshead committee
Of English stockholders of the Central Pa
cifc, who seek to reorganize the company and
Dust Huntington from control.

PITTSBURG, Oct. 49, = Notwith-
standing the rumors that have been
afloat for some time concerning the
financial straits Of the German Ma
tional bank, of this city, the announce
ment this morning that the bank had
gone into voluntary liquidation caused
Sreat surprise, and many depositors
hurried to the bank to find the doors
closed. Outside a small crowd assem-
bled, but there was no excitement.
The suspension of the bank can be
traced directly TO two causes, the car
rying of too many securities of the
Natalie Coal and Coke company. and
large loans on insufficient collateral.
The beginning of the difficulty was
nearly a year ago, when the Natalie
cOmpany's paper became the object of
much intricate litigation, in which the
German National bank figured. This
was followed few weeks ago by the
sudden retirement of Charles Burg
dorff, as cashier. The final stroke was
the confession of heavy Judgments by
AdOlphuS William G.. and 0. H. Groet-
singer, and A. Groetsinger & Sons, to
Edward Groetsinger and the issuance
