FAILS FOR 100000 OEAMATD DIVORCE
Firm of w. L. Strong l. Co., In
Receivers Hands.
DUE TO TWO DEATHS
Ex-MAYoR AND FRIEND EN-
DoRsED EACH OTHERS PAPER.

New York, Nov. 14.-Justice Andrews
in the supreme court has appointed
Edward A. Treat receiver for the firm
of w. L. Strong & Co. New York and
Philadelphia. His bond was named as
$3.50. 600. His sureties are Edward \,
Treat. August JuiIlard, John Claflin
and Cornelius y. Bliss. The suit is
brought to wind up the old firms bust
ness. One of the attorneys interested
said:
TT is one of the largest failures that
has occurred in the last few years, and
the liabilities will easily amount to
IS, 600 000."
Counsel for the firm said that the
Strong firm had indorsed more than
100000 in notes for the StOtt wooden
mills of StOttVille. n. V for which the
firm was agent, and that the odd cir
cumstances OF the death of former
Mayor Strong and F. II. Stott. heads Of
the two oncerns within three days of
each other, had brought about a crisis
by dissolving both firms at a moment
when large sums were due.
One note Endorsed for the StOtt COM
pany for 100000 is due tomorrow; other
notes for nearly $500. 900 are nearly due.
The StOtt company, in which the Strong
company is largely interested, had in
dOrsed notes of the Strong company, tn
return, but for an insignificant amount,
probably for less than 100000.
Deaths Cause Entire Trouble.
IF either Mr.. Strong or Mr.. Stott had
| lived the difficulty might have been set
! tied without public embarras sment,'
| said the attorney I'VE cannot say
| what action will be taken in regard to
/ winding UP the business of the StOtt
] company. but the debts of that concern
/ rather than those of Strong & Co. have
/ brought about the present crisis. The
| StOtt partnership is dissolved, the
| same as that of Strong & Co"
Doubt as to Solvency.
| Edward A. Treat, receiver for the
/ firm of w. l. Strong & Co, said today
1 that he was at present unable to re-
! move the uncertainty as to whether
/ the firm is solvent. 1t is not yet known
/ whether the firm was financially EN-
/ barrassed before the death of ex-Mayol
! Strong. Mr.. Treat made the following
| statement:
THE books must be gone over anC
| days will be required for that work"
