sbould go slowly in imposing any new re-

road has charters In three states. he SAID.
and in the issuance OF securities has to
conform to the regulation Of all those
s,ates. To allow the federal government

BIG CONCERN GOES TO WALL
Receiver for John Matthews
Soda Water Corporation.

\ petition In bankruptcy was filed yes
terday against John Matthews. u corpora
tion, manufacturer of soda water and car
donated beverages in bulk at No. 333 East
10Th street. one OF the Oldest and best
known concerns IN the United States. II
has been IN existence for seventy-nino
years The peut!onnS creditors are the
National Cork Company, Sis; Runkel
Brothers. S3Q5, and the Powers, Weightman
& Rosengarteu Company. SIT. II was al
legged that the corporation was insolvent
and made preferential payments. Judge
Holt appointed Lindsay Russell receiver
under a bond Of $4,000 and authorized him
TO continue business for thirty days.
Thomas & Oppenheimcr. counsel for tho
creditors. said the liabilities were S2So,O0o
Of which $4,000 were debenture bonds ana
$4,000 general liabilities. Of which $4,000
was Ia banks. Nominal assets are about
the same as the liabilities. and actual as
sets are probably 10000, exclusive Of good
will and trade names known throughout
the country. Trade has been slow for the
last two or three years and was not suffi-
cient TO warrant a continuance Of the busi-
ness.
At a meeting of the directors on Friday a
resolution was passed that the corporation
was unable 10 meet its obligations and was
willing 10 be adjudsed bankrupt and 10
consent to the appointment Of q receiver.
Notes had conc 10 protest. creditors were
pressing for payment. and several suits
had been started against it.
The business was started in 1882 by John
Matthews, grandfather of the present Off
GERS Of the concern, which succeeded to the
business in 1901. when it was incorporated
with a capital stock of 100000, Of which
about 10000 was Issued. Tho company
bought the Matthews business. also that Of
Gunther q Stucke and the National Soda
Water Supply Company Of Brooklyn
George Matthews vas president, John H.
Matthews treasurer and Joseph r.. Lee
secretary.
On November ! last the corporations
statement showed assets Of $4,000 Of
which the plant. merchandise, fixtures. etc.,
wero $4,000: accounts, $4,000, and good
will. $4,000. Liabilities were about $4,000
including the dcbenture bonds it is said
that the corporation does not own the
building and ground which s. occupies.

EXPECT SUCCESSFUL SALE
Bankers Think Well Of City S
Latest Issue Of Stock.

The feeling was general among bankers
IN the financial district yesterday that tho
sale to-day by the Controller Of $6e.oOo,oo9
a. per cent corporate stock Of the city
Of New York would be q complete success.
The new securities have been traded IN
when issued" on the stock Exchange for
several days. and the transactions IN them
Yesterday aggregated $4,000 par value all
except $4,000 being at 1ol.
Later in the afternoon ono Of the prom
inent bond houses received bid Of 1Olit
for o large block i is not expected that
any bids will be received by the Controller
Tor all or none" or for 'the whole or any
part from local banking institutions or
groups. but there vas n rumor Yesterday
afternoon. perhaps originating from the
known interest which is being taken abroad
in the sale. that a foreign syndicate would
nut m an "all or none bid.
The $50, 0000 600 now offered are straight
nftv-yoar bonds. but the best opinion IN
wall street is that the average price - be
received for them VIII be little under
1o1. owing partly 10 the great volume Of
railroad bonds recently issued or about 70
be brought out.
