Mr. Ia Roche will be sworn in to-mor-

his property, handles it economically and
does not expect the return TO himself to
exceed that paid by other first class in

II must be remembered that the COM
pany in question borrowed most OF the

so-called real estate bonds at a high rate
OF interest II takes a skilful real estate
operator these DAYS TO manage property in
a way that will earn per cent and have

III, in addition TO this. there are heavy
advertising expenses and large commis-
sions paid to agents on the sale Of securi-
ties Of such a corporation. 1t is not to be
wondered at that even New York real
estate would not stand the strain.
THE failure will undoubtedly have a
deterrent effect upon the purchase OF the
sort OF real estate securities that are not
based on first mortgages on real estate
In fact, the failure may have a good ef-
feet IL it should impress upon the invest

bare promises TO pay Of real estate spec

BLOW FOR SEX EQUALITY
Johnson Upheld in Refusal to
Appoint Women.

Justice Seabury, Of the Supreme Court
decided yesterday that Miss Juliette Ar
den. or any other woman who had taken
a civil service examination and passed
crcdtably. might not be appointed as an
inspector In the Bureau of Fire Prevention
unless the Fire Commissioner chose 10
appoint a woman to that position.
Miss Arden sued Commissioner Johnson
recently In an effort to compel him to ap-
point her and several other women as In
spectors. She alleged that the Commits
sioner in public speech declared that he
would appoint only good Tammany Demo-
Gratis. This, Miss Arden maintained, was
I'm violation OF the civil service law.
Justice Seabury decided that the courts
could not interfere with the Commissioners,
because the appointing power was discre-
tionary.

While A bondholders' committee was

o preserve the assets until a scheme of

This would occur, assurances were given,
Iithout the loss OF any money either by

No fear Is held of a foreclosure proceed

cree Of Judge Hough in the bankruptcy
proceedings contains a broad Injunction
against any legal action against any OF
the company's assets.
