BANKS MUST STAND THE LOSS
Eppinger Failure mt San Francisco
Worse Than at First
Reported.

SAN FRANCISCO. June s-The Chronicle
today says:
The Eppinger failure is more sweepins
in its results than at first was supposed
1t is now known that the liabilities will
approximate S1.373,OOo. There is only about
s65O,0OO worth of property with which to
pay this and 100000 of It is represented
by $1,000 acres of land on which the London
Paris and American bank holds the mort
cages. leaving but $26O,o0o in warehouses
stores and grains to satisfy claims OF
nearly 81, ,000, 900.
The absolute loss. with no possible pay
ment, will be approximately s750,0O0. The
Eppingers will be left practically penniless
and four San Francisco bankers and three
country banks will have to bear the com
bined loss Of S75o.OOO
The committee appointed by the creditors
of Eppinger & Co., the grain dealers, to in
vestigate the affairs of the firm, met today.
After considerable discussion three attor-
neys were chosen to institute insolvency
proceedings in the United States circuit
courts. 1t was agreed that the interests of
all the creditors could best be protected In
this manner
One Of the attorneys said that they would
ask for the appointment OF receivers for
both Eppinger & Company and the Pacific
Coast Warehouse company.
The main committee will report back to
the creditors tomorrow and in the mean.
tire the members will hold themselves sub
ject to a call at any time the attorneys

COTTON SHORTS ARE SCARED

Figures.

NEW YORK, June 9.-The upward move
ment in cotton continued on the opening
today, July, which closed at 11.S2c yester-
day, opening at 1L9ic. August was up 10
points from 11.lSc to 11.2Sc and September,
which closed at 1026c, opened at l0S2c.
other options advanced point or more.
1t was one of the noisiest and most ex-
citing openings of the season, September
advancing TO 10.3Oc, August to l1.3Oc and De-
cember 10 s.60c. The advance was a con-
tInuance of the scare of the shorts started
yesterday, and was attended by-further talk
of July corner and reports of crop dam
age. The Liverpool cables were lower than
expected on the old crop, but higher on
the new while New Orleans was again
strong. with July selling up to lS.O7c.
After the call here there was tremendous
realizing and July declined to l1S5c, whilo
August reacted 70 1l19c. The new crop
months. however, held most of their ad-
vance and the undertone was nervous and
unsettled.
When the weekly crop report was read
the trading became wilder and more ex-
cited than at any other time this session
Within a short time July was rushed uE
to 1216, August to 1l.55 and September to
1886. these figures being from IL to "a points

day,

Gasoline Famine in CrestOn.

CRESTON, Ia, June s.-(Special) )--Ores-
ton is threatened with a gasoline famine
unless the railroads soon get freight from
the east TO coming into town. There has
been no gasoline to be purchased of any of
the stores for two or three days and the
Standard OIL company which has tanks
here and supplies the city and surrounding
towns, has none in its tanks. There is
two carloads OF the fluid somewhere on the
road between here and Ottumwa, but none
to be had In town, Should the railroad
fail to get the cars here in the next two
days there would be much Inconvenience
from the lack OF this most necessary fluid
Besides the enormous amount used in pri-
vate families for cooking purposes, there
are many places in the city that use it in
engines for doing their work and a large
number OF business houses that depend
upon It for lighting purposes.

Iowa Crop Bulletin.
Iowa crop bulletin for week ending June
S. The first week in June brought a marked
Improvement, and the weather conditions
Of the last three days caused resumption
OF field work in considerable portions Of the
state, and seems to give promise of the
early restoration of seasonabe tempera-
ture, sunshine and rainfall. This is i'm
peratively needed to prevent well nigh
total loss Of corn and some other important
crops.
Reports are much more encouraging in
tone from the larger number Of counties.
The greater amount of damage by exces.
sve rains and floods has been suffered In
the drainage basins Of the Des Moines,
Iowa and Cedar rivers. The rainfall for
the week ending the Sth was generally
light. and the work Of powing, planting
and re-planting corn has been resumed in
upland fields in four-f1fths Of the counties
Of the state. The present conditions Justify
the belief that the amount of irreparable
damage to crops, though quite heavy in
many localities, will not be as heavy as
appeared 10 be imminent during the height
Of the foods. The acreage of corn will, of
course, be very considerably short OF the
large area planted in recent years.
The oats crop is becoming quite rank
and the same is measurRbly true Of wheat,

Get the Laugh on Omcer.

Two clowns attached to the otto Floto

uty City Marshal Leuch yesterday. One
was attired in ordinary civilian clothing
while the other wore the grotesque cos
tune of his part. They followed the parade
and at the corner of Broadway and Fourth
street apparently engaged in fight. The
plain clothes clown was felled to the
ground with a brick hurled by the cos
tuned clown, who proceeded to pound the
PROSTATE man with vicious looking club.
A crowd collected and the clowns acted
their parts so we'll that those who wit
messed the fight sent for the police. Deputy
City Marshal Leuch was the first to arrive
on the scene and escorted the belligerents
to the city JAIL the clowns not objecting.
Once inside the portals of the Jail they
explained the whole affair was but an ad-
vertising scheme and that the deadly look
ing club and brick were stuffed" dunn
miles, They were at once released and his
brother officers had the laugh on Oficer
Leuch for the balance Of the day.
