Established Firm.

Baltimore. Nd. July 1.-The banking
and brokerage firm of McKim & Co. was
placed in the hands of Charles Morris
Howard as receiver today. Mr.. Howard
said he could not as yet give any fig
ures as to the liabilities. etc.
Mr.. Howard gave bonds for $500, CO.,
which would seem to indicate that the
liabilities were half that amount. With
drawals of deposits and poor business,
coupled with the desire of Hollins Nc
Kim. the chief partner, who is getting
along in years. to retire from active bus
mess. were given as the reasons for the
action. Receiver Howard issued a state
ment in which he said:
Funds in Real Estate.
1T was deemed wise to wind UP the
business. The move was not an antago-
nistic one, but was made by the firm s
associates and with the fun consent of

SHIPS TIE IN LONG RACE.
Dead Heat Of 1890 Miles sailed from
Honolulu.

Philadelphia. Pa, Aug. ia race
across two oceans from Honolulu to
the Delaware breakwater, a distance
of 1870 miles. between two four
masted ships, for a wager OF $500,
ended at half-past seven o'clock yes
terdaY morning IN dead heat, when
both vessels arrived together.
The ships engaged In the long race
We're the Edward Sewall, Captain
quick. and the Astral, Captain Dun
ham, both American vessels, with big
cargoes of sugar.
To make the race interesting each
captain agreed to divide $500 with his
crew providing his ship won. The
men knew this before the ships left
Honolulu and the way in which they
manned the ships in the long cruise
accounts for both arriving at the same
time.
The race and wager was arranged
in Honolulu on April IT, the day before
the ships set sail for Philadelphia.
CAPTAINS Quick and Durham were to-
cether when the question as to which
shin would arrive at the hreakwater
arose An argument followed during
which both contended that his vessel
was the swfter and would arrive long
before the other.
