H. B. CLAFLIN COMPANY
FAILS IN NEW YORK
Head Of Chemical National Bank
Named as Receiver for Big
Dry Goods Firm.

New York, June 27.-The vast Olaf.
lin dry goods enterprises collapsed
with the appointment of receivers in
New York for the wholesale house Of
the H. B. Cla1in company and the an.
nounCement that nearly thirty retail
stores throughout the country would
be closed. The liabilities Of the firm
are estimated at s35,O0O.O00 and the
assets at more than 100000 Over
extended credits caused the failure,
the largest of its kind in the history
Of the country. The paper of the firm
is said to be held by more than three
thousand banks.
The United Dry Goods companies
and the Associated Merchants com.
pany, though affiliated with the Claf1in
company through stock control, were
not involved in the failure Their
chain Of stores, it was said in the finan-
dial district, would remain intact.
Hope was expressed also that the Olaf.
lin retail enterprises would be saved.
Unless blocked by creditors, reor.
gantzation of the firm is contemplated,
according to a statement issued by
John Clafin, the president.
The following statement was given
out at the Office of the company:
1.-THE unprecedented shifting OF
trade centers in New York has caused
great loss to many interests. In the
case of the H. B. Claf1in company the
uptown movement of business has seri.
ously curtailed our wholesale profits
and as compelled US to rely mainly
on the profits from financing retail
stores throughout the country. Their
rapidly expanding business has occa,
stoned large capital requirements,
which we have not been able to
meet"
Joseph B. Martindale, president OF
the Chemical National bank, and Fred.
erick A. Juilliard, a wholesale dry
goods merchant, are the receivers.
