T. A. Mcintyre & Co. were members
of the Chicago board OF trade, the
New Orleans cotton exchange and the
Liverpool association, and was one Of
the largest brokerage commission
houses in the city. walter II. Meier,
Office manager for the firm, said today
that while he has not yet ascertaine1
the extent Of the failure, he believed
the FIRMS liabilities would be less than
100000. The direct cause of the sus-
pension. he said. was an impairment of
the firms capital which followed the
financial panic of last fall. THE firm
had been carrying the accounts of y
number of It's customers who were UNI
able to meet their obligations.
New Laws Also Hurt.
Mr.. MoIer said the firm also had suf-
fered greatly from the effects OF the
anti-option laws of the southern
states, which had curtailed trading in
cotton.
An involuntary petition in bankrupt
cy was filed against T. A. Mcintyre

An effort is being made by GER.
