District Attorney Begins
Inquiry ON Stock Firm
Will Examine Accounts of Arm.
strong & Co., of the Con-
solidated Exchange

AN Investigation by the District
Attorneys office was begun yesterday
afternoon into the accounts of the Con-
sohdated Stock Exchange firm Of
Armstrong g. Co, whose failure was
announced in the financial district late
Monday. Judge julius Mayer, of the
United States District Court, earlier in
the day appointed James G. Graham
receiver, following the filing of an in
voluntary petition in bankruptcy
against the firm by three creditors
with aggregate claims Of $4,000.
DIR. Graham, who is lawyer with
Offices at 81 Nassau Street, said he
had been unable to interview the
principals Of the failed firm. Frederick
Armstrong and L. D. Newman. At
their Offices it was said Mr.. Armstrong
had not been there since Monday and
that Mr.. Newman had been there last
on Tuesday.
Liabilities OF the firm, according to
the receiver, are between 100000 and
$40, 900, while total assets, so far as
he has been able to learn, are about
$1,000 in cash. He said the difference
between these two items had prompted
him to make application to the Federal
Court for an order to examine the al
Legged bankruptcy under section II of
the bankruptcy law.
The creditors who filed the bank
ruptcy petition against the firm are
Edward J. Stach, Elliott l.. Ward and
A1phonse Rehciser. Henry G. Wind
horst, Of III Broadway, is attorney for
the creditors.
New-York tribune., 1919-05-08
Higher Prices
Expected i'm Free
Silver Market
Dealers Predict That New
York Will Succeed Lon.
don as Primary Centre for
Dealings in the Metal

With all the wartime restrictions
removed from the sale and export of
commercial bar silver by government
decree, dealers in the m tai yesterday
predicted much higher prices in view
Of the world shortage in silver A
price of between $1.01 and S10212 an
ounce was quoted in this market, q
slight advance over the. level on Mon
day previous to the announcement of
the restoration OF free trading in sill
Yer.
Some dealers went so far as to assert
that in the future the central market in
the metal will be transferred from Lon
don to New York. In the past London
has made the worlds price for silver,
the other markets merely following the
lead set in that market. Since the be-
ginning of the war New York has as
sumed a much more important posi-
ton with respect to establishing the
world price for the metal.
China Wants Silver
One of the leading bullion houses in
this city estimated yesterday that
market in the course of the next few
months for at least 25,00O,0O0 ounces of
silver. Since August, 1918, when the
embargo upon silver shipments went
into effect, China has been unable to
buy any silver here, and stocks of the
metal in that part of the Far East are
said to be comparatively small.
The Scandinavian countries are also
short of silver for coinage purposes,
and will probably buy large supplies
in the United States. Russia is also
short of silver, but the replenishment
of the supply in that country depends,
the dealers say, upon the restoration of
stable government.
Under the Pittman act of last year.
which provided for the melting down OF
S350,000,000 of American silver dollars
held in the Treasury against circula-
ting silver certificates, close to $780,
100000 of this silver money was thrown
into the melting pot and made into
bars. Of this total $3.50 100000 worth
of silver was shipped to the govern
ment of India under an agreement be-
tween the United States government
and Great Britain. The Pittman act
makes it necessary for the Treasury to
replace at its own discretion the con-
tent of the silver dollars melted down
for export during the war emergency
Slump in Output
Production of silver in the United
States has fallen off sharply since the
signing of the armistice, because the
majority of the big copper producing
companies which have large output Of
silver as by-product has curtailed op-
erations owing to the fall in copper
prices. On the average the copper com
panies of the country are operating on
a basis of less than so per cent of ca
pacity.
The only actual transaction in silver
I
lot that changed hands at $1.02A. The
government is quoting price of
S1.01A. The market is generally at q
standstill, owing to the fact that sellers
are inclined to hold their metal for
higher prices.
