THE FIRM PROTECT THEIR STOCKS.
Not only did Flower G. Co. do their part yes
terday in protecting the holders Of Flower
stocks In general by supporting the market
with heavy purchases, but they also announced
to their customers that they would protect their
own customers even II the margins of the lat

would even buy more stock for any customer
who should ask them to make such purchase.
Not few costly mishaps occurred in the
citing quarter hour just following the opening Of
the stock market One young broker had
order to sell 900 shares OF Brooklyn Rapid
Transit at 10. but In his haste and excitement
he read the selling price wrong. and accordingly
closed out the block at 100. his loss through the
blunder being the not inconsiderable sum OF
$4,000. Another broker, who had order TO
buy ten thousand shares OF the same stock at

securities in the crisis.
TO CONTINUE IN BUSINESS.
One OF the newspapers Of the financial district
said yesterday in reference to the prospect Of
the continuance In business Of the firm OF Flow
er & Co.:
I'VE can state from an authoritative source
that the firm OF Flower & Co. will not be af-
fected by the death Of the Governor He was a
special partner only, having in the firm the linn
ited capital Of 100000. His partners are all ex-
perienced men, and have been conducting the
affairs OF the firm without any special help from
the Governor They Will continue the business,
and have ample capital at their command. He
had no securities which were not paid for, and
he had none which he did not intend to hold for
investment"
The directors OF the International Paper Com
pany met yesterday and adopted resolutions
euogistic OF Ex-Governor Flower, who was
member of the Board. The many other corpora
tions, societies and clubs in which Mr.. Flower
was a prominent figure are expected to take
similar action at early date.
