CRASH IN THE
GRAIN TRADE
Eppinger & Co. of San Francisco
Forced to the Wall.
NO HOPE FOR RESUMPTION
LIABILITIES FAR IN EXCESS OF
THE ASSETS.

= AN FRANCISCO, June 6.-Eppinger
& Co. of this city, one of the Iarg-
est grain dealing firms in the
United States, went to the wall today.
The crash came suddenly and for a
1 time threatened to completely upset
the local grain market. As it was, the
announcement of the failure caused a
big bobbing of prices on change and
wrought uD such excitement as has
not been witnessed on the floor for
many years. 1t is thought that the
losses of the firm may run up into the
millions, while the London, Paris &
American bank, the money house with
which 1t deals, win also, it is said, suf-
fer heavily.
The failure of the EpDinger concern
is the greatest and most far-reaching
crash in the California grain trade
since the time when William Dresback
was forced to the wall some seven or
eight years ago.
Brokers Were Startled.
Although there had been a whisper
Of uncertainty in inner circles for sew
eral days as to the standing of Epping-
er & Co, none of the brokers was at
all prepared for the startling announce
ment that was made on change. It
was known that the cOmpany was
oAANA ! va q AAGSNng e1AAAOAAA- u december
wheat and the outcome Of the an
nouncement in the face of this condi-
ton at once brought about the most
marked activity.
Creditors of Eppinger & Co. at once
began buying against the amount short
for the account of the suspended firm,
with the result that December wheat
quickly rose from S1.32 at the opening
to $1-341z- After the great bulk of the
pressing contracts had been filed the
market weakened somewhat and the
price declined to S1.34.
Senior Partner III.
The firm embraced Jacob Eppinger,
the founder; Hermann Eppinger and
E. Ettlinger. Up to the dissolution of
the great combination, which controlled
the grain business, charters, prices and
contracts, Eppinger & Co were mem
bers OF a combination known as the
Big Four" This combine was in con-
troll of warehouses all over the state,
notably those at Port Costa, dissolved

WAS ALL A Mistake

Some weeks ago there appeared an
editorial in these columns relative to
an advertisement of a Marconi Tele.
graph Co. which appeared in the July
McCiure's. says the Hawaii Herald. In
that advertisement was a statement to
the effect that this Marconi Company
had acquired the Wireless Company
in Hawaii In the mail which arrived
here last Sunday the following letter
and copy of the correct advertise.
ment mentioned was received by the
herald:

New Orleans, La, Jan. 17.-Liverpool
advices were not encouraging, but our
market nevertheless opened l to points
higher on fears of unsettled weather
continuing throughout the belt. Realiz-
ing later, however, was instrumental in
establishing a decline of 8 to points.
Near the close large buying on the pros
poets of a lighter interior movement,
caused an improvement of to 10 points
from the bottom, making the net gain
5 to 6 points on the day. The higher the
market goes the more bullish does senti-
ment become, until now there is prac-
tically no speculative short interest left,
Every one seems to be unanimous in the
belief that a further enhancement is in
order. This opinion prevails in Liver
pool New York and in the local mar
ket and it is naturally easy under such
conditions to maintain values until some
thing new develops in the situation.
While everything works so smoothly
optimism is rampant. Still we think for
that very reason it is time for traders to
eporate conservatively. The receipts,
weather and the demand for spots will
continue to regulate the further course
of the market.

sources or employment, whereof before,
the timber was a capital in their hands
that would have given them employment
and support for many years.
No man worthy to be called NORTH
Carolinian" will purposely destroy the
future of his country for present gain;
no legislator worthy the honor he bears
will cast his vote in any way to facilitate
the further destruction of our forests.
The soil on the mountain sides is not
Ger ten feet deep at the deepest. Some
fields have lost one foot of soil, an aver
age, in the last two years. At this rate,
twenty years will leave only the bare
rocks.
The mountains are clothed in trees and
crowned with laurels; their underskirts
are tucked with ferns and galaX; their
bosoms are decked with rhododendrons,
and rivers trinkling from their feet,
carry their music and poetry through
smiling ballies to the great ocean, why
allow this bi-furcated fungacide called
timber men" to cover them with bitter
rot?

Forest Destruction in Western Nortl
Carolina.

Written for the News and Observer.
The Appalachian National Park move
ment gave great impetus to the pur-
chase of timber land in Western North
Carolina. The timeber men were so
envious of Uncle Sam that they flew
at the timber with greed; like hungry
wolf leaping upon it's prey. Some of
them we're in such haste that they paid
the value of the land, when previously
they had bought it for a song. But this
only makes our threatened forest de-
struction all the more appalling, and
leaves it incumbent on the Legislature
to guard our interest at every point.
Five years ago lumber plant was
established in a large pine forest in
Mitchell county. Some of the timber
was bought, without the land, at the low
rate of one dollar per acre The laps of
the fallen trees got dry in autumn. and
forest fires breaking out from the tram
way engines, have given the once YER
dant country a look of dissolution.
When this body of timber is all cut,
the tram-ways will be removed the peo-

taking of yesterday would finally bring
about a setback would be inevitable May
and March sold two points lower than
yesterday and there was not the support
that might have been expected We can
not but believe that on break Mon
day morning cotton will be a purchase.
On the break a few weeks ago May de-
clined twenty-five points and then re-
acted twenty points in no time. From
the action of the market this morning,
We look for a further setback. May
bought around $40 should be a compar
atively safe purchase. If the opening
figures Monday are S.73, or S.Ij., we
would take risk on that side. We have
never vet seen q market crumble away
without a reaction. This market will
not. Those who took profits yesterday
can replace their cotton ten or fifteen
points lower. On a further break buy
more and let the cotton go on the first
advance. There should be more cotton
for sale at this price. Nine cents N
New Orleans and only ten points from
that in New York yesterday means a
good price 1t will mean more cotton
from the interior. Last year the move
ment fell away sharply after leXt week
and this we may be treated to a better
movement. For this reason profit taking
on such an advance as this weeks IS
the part of wisdom. But we would GUY
cotton on the break Monday if We get
one.
