to one of the American magnates, the
seCurity being mainly Union Pacifcs.
The bank decided that this loan should
be repaid, but on meeting with re-
fusal, it resolved to liquidate the Sc
curity by selling the Union Pacific
shares in it's possession. An attempt

vate negotiations failed, and conse-
Quently very large quantity was put
upon the market.
Those knowing these circumstances
formed the natural conclusion that

change firms, including one Of the high
