Venezuela, Texas and Colombia and it
was on one of its cattle boats. craft
of 1000 tons burden, that Silveira with
his family left Hayana in October.
Silveira has been a promoter of many
enterprises in Cuba. One Of his spec
ulations, in which Mr.. Ceballos Is said
TO have been associated with him, was
the purchase during the war which
freed Cuba from Spanish control, of a
large mass Of soldiers warrants which
he got for little money. but which sub
sequently were redeemed at par and s
per cent. interest. He cleared a large
sum by this operation.
AS the financial agent of Ceballos &
Co, Sflveria's firm handled money in
bulk and often had on hand an excess
holding of more than million dol
lars. Ceballos & Co. were the business
agents for many new York firms and
individuals interested In Cuban pro-
jects and in this business handled large
sums of money for their customers
At tle f1Otel America, where CubanS
and Spaniards made their home, the
opinion among all who would express
their sentiment was that the expected
had happened. They said that Silveira
had employed Jose Miguel Gomez, the
Liberal candidate for President, whose
defeat by Palma had brought on the
recent revolution. as general admins
traitor of vast sugar plantation in
the province of Puerto Principe, "and
the way they spent money on that
plantation" said one, was amusing.

Juan NJ. Ceballos. the head of Cebal.

nently identified with many interna-
tional enterprises. He has had few
Wall Street connections and his house
was regarded as not so much Wall
Street concern as a promoter Of Latin
American enterprises. The effect of the
assignment on local firms is problemat-
ical.
A man who has close business rela-

the extent of 100000 in curtailing
it's credit to that amount. The loss.
