GERMAN LOSS IN COTTON
One Bank May Be Involved to
Extent of 100000.

Berlin, April Set now appears that
certain German banks are involved ir the
insolvency of the Alabama cotton firm OF
knight, Ysncey & Co.
The matter was discussed much to-day
on tie Boerse. where shares of the
Deutsche National Bank OF Bremen were
sharply depressed. because it was assumed
that the house has sustained severe losses
through forged bills of lading. The bank
itself appears to be still in doubt whether
bills accepted by it were forged or genuine.
In any case the officers of the institution
do not expect the losses TO exceed saOo,oeo'
The Deutsche Bank ESQ apparently Is in
volvea, but its officers authorize the state
ment that serious losses are not ex-
pected The interested houses are waiting
anxiously for the arrival OF steamers upon
which cotton was ostensibly shipped Only
upon the coming OF those vessels can the
losses be definitely determined
