Some uncertainty prevails as to the
bases OF the settlement to be made
nnaliy as to the accounts OF creditors
and debtors. While information has
been given out that accounts with
creditors here will be figured on the
basis of values the day the receiver
ship began, Ii IL not determined as
yet whether that will be the bases
upon which the transactions between
the receiver and Hayden. Stone & Co..

Sentiment in favor OF a sale of the

sale has grown, az the market Is
figured by experts to be on high
