Philadelphia. Aug. 80. - Receiver
George H. Earle, Jr.. has taken charge
Of the affairs of the Real Estate Trust
company which failed because Of the
heavy loans made by Frank K. Nipple.
late president, to Adolf Segal, pro-
moter. upon insufficient security. I'm
til Earle completes his investigation
the exact condition Of the company's
affairs cannot be told. The receiver,
however, expressed the belief that the
trust funds are intact. John H. Con-
verse, a director of the company, and
one of the foremost Presbyterian lay
men in the country. said he was salts
fed that the securities of the various
Presbyterian church boards are safe.
They Hope to Reopen the Bank.
1t is the hope Of the directors to re-
open the doors of the bank, and with
this end in view they held numerous
meetings, comforting with Receiver
Earle. One of the meetings was at
/ tended by Adolf Segal, and later 1t
was learned that he had sold the town
/ of South Altoona, Pa, which he built
with money borrowed from the Trust
company. The purchaser, It is said,
paid 100000 for the various proper
ties.
Wanted to Make 1t Secure.
Adolf Segal, who is the central fig
ure now in the collapse Of the com
pany, stated that some days ago he
placed in the hands of the officials of
the company several million dollars
worth of bonds in order to make his
borrowings absolutely secure. There
were no conditions attached" he de-
clared. ''1hey were to be used to the
best advantage of the company l feel
l have done everything in my power
to relieve the Real Estate Trust COM
pany."
Hasn't Got That S5OO,OOO Yet.
Continuing, SegaI said: II am inter-
ested in from twenty to thirty big
companies. Several months ago a num-
Der of Pittsburg capitalists entered into
an agreement with me for the pur-
chase of my real estate holdings in Al
toona, Pa. The purchase price is $780,
600, hut the money has not yet been
paid"
Says He Will See 1t Through.
Segal declined to give a list Of his
securities, consisting of bonds and
mortgages, which the trust company
holds. He said that T. W. Nipple, son
Of the late President Nipple, has oc
cupied the position Of secretary in one
of his companies, but declared the po
sition was purely honorary. and that
no salary was paid the young man. II
was rumored today that I intended
leaving town. concluded SegaI. II in
tend to stay right here and see this
