COTTON FAILURE MAY
 INVOLVE $l,OOO,OOO
Arkansas Firms May Be Hit by LeSSer-Ely COmpany'S Difficult tieS-The President Is
 Missing.

Memphis, April 29.-Memphis financiers and federal authorities yesterday asserted that the amount involved ill the Lesser-Ely Cotton Company's failure will total nearly $i,000,000. On account of many of the company's assets being scat tered in Arkansas and Mississippi, Receiver J. w. Brown says several days must elapSe before he can give statement as to the firms 1inan- cial condition.
 If reports in banking circles are to be taken as true, other banks i'll Mississippi and Arkansas are likely to be placed in stringent financial circumstances by the failure.
 Rumor gained circulation yester- day that the failure of the Lesser Ely Company has seriously involved an Eastern Arkansas bank. It is said that the company borrowed more than Sl00,000 from this bank, and that the collateral included warehouse receipts for which there is no cotton. An emissary of this bank was in Memphis yesterday.
 D. w. McLemOre, owner of the cotton warehouse where Lesser-Ely stored their cotton, issued a writ ten statement declaring he has the utmost confidence in Mr. Lesser's honesty and integrity. He states that it was a great surprise to me when the Lesser-Ely cotton firm suspended business"
 Tn regard to warehouse receipts" he continued, "I have signed state ments issued by the firm that re- ceipts issued by me had been lost and had not been endorsed or hy- pothecated, and upon the strength of these signed statements l deliV- cred the cotton"
 Close business relations between the Lesser-Ely Cotton Company and smaller business concerns in Mis- Sissippi and Arkansas, say local bankers, will likely cause the sus- pension of the latter and work great hardshipS on planters who have de- pended upon the firm for the tinan- cial arrangements for a 1913 crop.
 J. w. Brown, whose home is in Brownsville, Tenn. was appointed receiver by Judge Mccall At the same time the court issued an in- junction restraining the bankrupt company from removing any cot ton or other tangible assets from local warehouses.
 President Strangely Missing.
 It was reported late yesterday that Leo Lesser, the company's president, who has been strangely missing since the failure of the Bank of Tunica, of which he was also head, had been seen in New Orleans. J. A. Ely, junior member of the firm, insists that Mr, Lesser handled all the cotton business, and so far he has been unable to find the exact standing of the company's af- fairs.
