LIABILITIES OVER s5oo,ooo.
New York Commission Merchants
Make an Assignment.

New York, July 29.-The firm of
Cumming & Stockbridge, export and
import commission merchants at II
Broadway, has assigned. The liabili-
ties of the firm are given as in excess
of $500,000, but the assets of the firm
will not be known until an examina-
tion os the books is made. The firm
was mentioned in recent Havana dis
patches as having been involved in the
failure of B. Duran of that city.
A statement issued by attorneys for
the firm says the suspension was i'm
mediately occasioned by the maturing
of number of acceptances, aggre-
eating a considerable amount, drawn
upon the house by B. Duran of Ha-
vana, whose suspension was announced
in Havana last Friday Until definite
advices from Havana are received 1t
will be impossible to give an entirely
accurate statement of the affairs of
Cumming & Stockbridge. 1t is
thought that the assets will nearly, if
not quite, equal the liabilities.
Cumming & Stockbridge organized
about four years ago. The firm has

and Germany. They are the local
agents for the Comstock Steamship

Wilson would have been summarily
executed but for the interposition OF

Lake George, N. Y, July 29.-The
committee appointed by representa-
tive anti-imperialists in New York
city to investigate army conditions in
the Philippines, has sent letter to
President Roosevelt commencing him
for his action in reviewing the court
martial Of General Jacob H. Smith.
\ The committee believes the presi.
dents action will do much toward es-
tablishing the national prestige and
the restoration Of the morale of the
army.
The committee states its investiga-
tions led it to conclude that demorali-
zation of the army in all branches Of
the service was even more general
and pronounced than stated in the
presidents review of General Smiths
case; that in a district in the Philip
pines, where the total population was
100000, not less than 100000 perished.

serious that he has been examined by

fections and after consultation they
forbade him to resume work in the

that the specialists feared the affect
of the exciting scene which would be
