Cobrarles iquince centavos!

No, cie1 tamente.

A letter dated July 2S, sets forth that
the situation had changed and that
the writer had notified Oppenheim that
all the French underwriters would be
held to their individual liability.
postscript to this letter read thus:
"P. S.-Since writing the above, Reg
NAL, one of the underwriters. came in
great state of excitement and said
that he had been to See HarjeS and
asked whether they knew anything
about the business; that he was accom-
panied by a man who spoke English
and he listened: that the cashier did
everything he could to sepak badly
about the business and said there We're
no quotations for the securities in New
York and that they did not want to
have anything to do with it, although
they would receive the money for it.
Regnial was very indignant and came
to me.
Il saw young Harjes. who said that
he had been very much prejudiced
against the affair since seeing Young.
II became very indignant, said that
| had not introduced Young, that he
was 4 mere promoter, such as Mr.. Nor
gan constantly used in New York, said
Regnial was the man and that Regnial
told me this Gerry day he would pay up
the entire call irrespective of whether
there were any defaults"
In the correspondence included the
following cablegram:
Paris. July IS, 1902.
"MacCook. New York:-Have Nor
gan's wire IIarjes. Take cordial view of
affair. Say properties valuable; per-
sonnet fine. Regnial just told me will
pay for underwriters who may default
but wants those paying Harjes en-

TRACK AND STABLE.

Isaac Grey of Plymouth has a hand
by Burdet.e which looks as though it
were going to make q good horse.
George Sanders, who brought out Lou
Dillon, 1885, is to train ten head of trot-
ting stock for John Fl. Shuts of New
York, for the season of 1901. Mr.. Shuts
| has expended as much, if not more
money on trotIers than any one in the
country, but never had anything at the
races that brought his name before the
public.
G. T. Grey of Plymouth has hand
some tWo-year-old colt by Warrener;
dam a Wilkes mare. This colt is
dark grey in color and is sure to
make Il trotter He also has a year
ling, "A chestnut in color by Bonny Red
lawn; dam the same mare. This colt
is Of good shape and size and is going
to be q good one when he gets some age

Every norseman will want a copy OF

ample OF the illustrating and printing

many features of interest would require
much space. sufficient to say that the
leading matters of interest i'll the horse

The letter criticises severely in a
postscript the impression said to have
been thrown OUT by the younger Har-

Efforts through other source also We're
made, according to letters and cable
grams quoted to counteract the effect
of various reports circulated as to the
impending collapse of the underwrit-
ing scheme in New York.
In one of the letters from Paris ad-
dressed to Alexander 4 Green. Mr..
Alexander is quoted as follows:
Il constantly say to all parties that
nothing can bc done in the way of as
sisting the underwriters here to dis
pose of their bonds unless they frankly
come forward when notified. acknowl-
edge their liability and make their first
payment. when all hands will unite An

good Judgment not to stand out. but
suggested to her that perhaps Scott
would make her an offer in the securi-
ties OF the new company which will be
good enough to be attractive. as one
of her difficulties is the trouble of in
yestinR the money she may receive"
In another letter dated July II, 1902,
signed by Mr.. Alexander. the state
ment is made that investigating the
Bank Rosa, the writer learned that the
Pope had $S,O0o.00 in that bank; that
he had a similar sum with the Roths-
childs and about the same amount in
England.
According to the World. the word
"Drexels" was used in the correspond
ence to respresent Morgan. HarJes d

to Mr.. Alexander there also appears
the following:

One of the French underwriters was
named Schryer and the following refer
ence was made to him in one of the
letters:
II hear he has million dollars be-
longing to an old woman to invest
at his discretion"
In this same letter there is also this
statement:
II have caused it to be known that
a leading English banker has told me
that | must get a million dollars in q
