Loss OVER 500, 900, 900.
London & Globe Swindle Was a Rec
ord Breaker.

London, Aug. THE official receiver an
nounees that he has issued summons
against Whitaker Wright and Robert Lee
man to recover sS50.000 in connection with
share transactions between the British
American Corporation and the failed Lon
don and Globe Finance corporation, linn
tied. In the same report the receiver says
that for the present it is not proposed to
prosecute the directors of the London and
Globe company for malfeasance.
The city is displaying great interest in
the company. special petition has been
circulating on the stock exchange and
signed by many influential men demanding
the prosecution of Whitaker Wright, and
it is considered that the credit of the city
and the stock exchange demands thor
eugh investigation of the London and
Globe methods of finance. Probably the
full extent of the money lost to the com
pany will never be learned, but the finan-
eial experts now estimate it at upwards
of 500, 600 600. The f1otations for which
Wright was responsible aggregate forty
one, with the enormous capital of Sill, TO-
CO., and with few exceptions all these COM
panies are either in liquidation have been
absorbed are defunct What the share
holders will recover from the crash may
be imagined from the announcement that
the creditors of the London and Globe will
raceive only 5 per cent and that nothing
remains for the shareholders.
The compulsory liquidation of the Lon
don and Globe Finance corporation, limit
ed, was ordered on October 80, 1901.
