The outcome of the underwriting is rein

aud its effect is enhanced by the knowledge that
similar conditions exist in the case Of other

uiative position IN the market. rather than the
sinister forces Of anticipation of stock market

belief that crippled speculation accounts OF
smaller importance were involved. ASIDE from
these special incidents in the market, develop
ments were not favorable. The rate for time
loans for al periods went 10 below per cent

anxious that its integrity be main
tanned and many conferences were
held with view to putting the knick-
accomplished without weakening other
Institutions George w. Young Of the
Windsor Trust company expressed the
sentiment of the bankers generally
when he said: 1888
"It would be suicidal for the other
trust companies not to desire to save
the Knickerbocker.
J. P. Morgan and his partner were
In conference at their Wall street Of
fee until after O'Clock. Mr.. Morgan,
when asked as to the situation said:
"We are doing everything we can as
fast as we can, but nothing has yet
crystallized"
Shortly before II o'clock last night
J. Pierpont Morgan, George W. Per
Kins, George F. Baker, president Of
the First National bank, and Frank A.
Vanderlip, vice president of the Ma
tional City bank, and a. B. Hepburn,

Due to Depreciation in Securities.
The assignment of the firm of
Mayer & Co. brokers and members OF
| the New York Stock Exchange, was
said to be due to the recent deprecia-
| ton in the values Of securities. The
| liabilities were given as $6,000,000 and
it is said that the assets may prove
sufficient to offset the firms obliga-
lions. ...0...
At meeting of the directors Of the
Hudson Trust company the resigna-
ton of Orlando F. Thomas as presi-
dent was formally accepted and E.
r. Chapmnn was selected as head Of
the institution in his place.
! Attorney General Jackson reached
here late Tuesday night and after a
conference with Bank Superintendent
Skinner said he did not intend to
make an application for receiversh1p
for the Knickerbocker Trust company
today. AS to what might be done later
he declined to say beyond making the
| declaration that he expected no Grim
inal action.
The committee appointed by the
Trust Companies association made 9
cursory examination Of the Knicker
booked books Tuesday night. This
was sufficient, Chairman George W
Young said, to establish the solvency
of the bank. Today more detailed
examination Of the affairs Of the com
pany will be instituted. The commit
tee will report to the association to
day, but the association will take nc
action toward aiding the Knicker
booker until they are satisfied thai
the condition of the company is suc1
as to warrant them in SO doing.

STATEMENT BY CORTELY0U
National Banks of New York in
Strcnq Condition.

New York, Oct. 23.-Secretary Of
the Treasury George 3. Cortelyou
made the following statement shortly
before I O'Clock this morning:
IT repeat what I stated before leav-
ing Washington Tuesday afternoon, If
for no other reason than to emphasize
the attitude of the treasury depart
ment. It will use its facilities to as
sist in every proper way legitimate
business interests and it's actions will
be prompt and thorough.
"'rhe national banks of New York
city are in an exceptionally strong
condition. The general situation here
seems to be we'll in hand and is being
looked after by many strong and in
f1uential men, such as those whose re-
cent actions in the clearing house re-
ceived emphatic public approval. The
movement for similar concert of &C
ton among the trust companies should
have helpful and far reaching ef-
fect.''
This statement was made following
a conference on the local banking sit
nation held at the Hotel Manhattan
between Secretary Cortelyou, J. Pier
pont Morgan, George w. Perkins,
George F. Baker, Frank A. Wander
lip, James Stillman and Judge Cam.
Subsequently it was learned that
the position of the Knickerbocker
Trust company was regarded by those
at the conference as hopelessly in
solvent and that no aid was to be ex-
tended to that institution. 1t was
| learned that the Trust Company Of
| America had applied for and was
granted liberal assistance. The bank
sers further decided to extend addi-
tional aid to the Trust Company Of
| America should this be required.
It was the consensus of opinion of
the bankers at the conference that the
general banking situation not only so
far as it concerned the banks, but the
trust companies as well, has been
very much strengthened and no fur
ther trouble is apprehended. Such
trust companies as may deserve as
sistance 1t was learned, will be given
| It,
A committee was appointed to make
an investigation of the affairs Of the
| Trust Company of America and 1t
will depend upon the result Of this in
vestigation what further action will
be taken by the banking interests in
regard to the Trust Company OF Amer
lea. The Trust Company OF America
has s12,0O0,O00 in its vaults to meet
payments today.
