there is reason to believe the majority

Whether the report will be unanimous
is open to doubt, as three of the men,
bers Of the committee arc-not counted on
as positively favorable to The courSe in

with the priI3la facia right TO be sworn

Work has been indefinitely suspended
on the mammoth abattoir of the Pace
Pork-Packing Company, in the Wess-tsld
suburb adjoining the Union Stock-fards,
The contractors for the work dismissed
their force several days Hgo, anil no
date was specified for the resumption oc
operation.
The plant was projected to cost up
wards of 100000. The plans contemplate
a very complete establishment, perhaps

Abandonment of the wors. however. Is
only temporary. The enterprise has gone
forward so far that it is out Of the duas-s3
ton to abandon It at this stage OF the
proceedings. The costly buildings have
nearly reached completion.
WHY THE EMBARRASSMENT.
The embarrassment OF the Pace Pork
Packing Company, it was stated on the
authority OF the president. AIr. James 3.
Pace. yesterday. is due primarily to the
slringency of the money market. Mr..
Pace said last evening: Temporary sus-s
pension of work was rendered necessary
owing to my inability to place the bonds
OF the company whereby funds would
have been secured to continue the work.
of construction. This state of fairs has
come about in the past three v .eks.
Gas soon as the money market eases
the company will be reorganized on an
even stronger basis than had been con-
templated at the outset. Exactly When
the reorganization Will be effected can
not be foretold at this time IT depends
as have said, on the rapidity with which
finances resume their normal state
RESULT OF DELAY.
It is understood that there would have
been no difficulty in placing the bonds up
to three weeks or a month ago. Before
the furry In the money market conditions
were so promising that the plans OF the
company were carried forward, In the
confident belief that there would be no
trouble experienced in disposins OF the
bonds at leisure. Before an EFFORT was
made to place the bonds the money mar
ket stifened.
The capitalization OF the company was
or a basis of 100000, and a bond issue OF
an equal amount was contemplated
A RECENT CONFERENCE

that crisis had been reached The al;
ternatfves were laid before them His
friends were unanimous in advising the
futility of attempting to place the bonds
at the present time, and their advice that
the work be temporarily suspended was
followed.
The Pace Pork-Packine Company Is q
local corporation. No outside interestA
are represented. Mr.. Pace Is confident
that at least three-fourtEs of the 100000
of bonds will be placed here.
