Head of Atlantic,
Gulf & w. Indies
Doubts Receiver
A. IL. Nicol Says He Has mo
Information of Such Com
templated Action; Denies
knowledge of Committee

A. r. Nicol, president of the At
lantic, Gulf and West Indies Steamship
lines, said yesterday that the manage
ment has received absolutely no in
formation Of any such contemplated
action. In referring to report that
minority tockholders, headed by K.
Deerteld, of Chicago, had organized a
protective committee looking to 8 re-
celvershlp of the company. Mr.. Nicol
said that he had never heard of Mr.
Deerfleld, and said that so far as his
knowledge went the company had few
stockholders in the Chicago district.
This report, however, coupled with
the publication of an advertisement
signed by the "Atlantic Gulf Company"
the meaning of which was bearishly
Interpreted in some quarters, caused
further unsettlemeut in the company's
common stock, which closed at a net
loss of 5S points for the market ses-
SION, following q decline of 12$4 points
last week. The latest developments in
the company's affairs are said to be
the subject of investigation by the
Stock Exchange authorities, who are
said TO be desirouS of learning If there
is bear campaign to depress the stock.
Upon being questioned regarding the
company's financing plans, Mr. Nicol
said that negotiations looking toward
financing the completion of the COM
pany's program in connection with the
construction of it's tanker fleet and it's
Mexican oil property were proceeding
favorably along lines determined upon
several weeks ago; that the company
had every reason to believe that these
negotiations would be satisfactorily
concluded within reasonable period,
and an announcement of the plans
made in due course.
In the mean time Mr. Nicol stated
that six of the company's tankers had
already been put in service, and all
were operating on favorable basis,
three being chartered to other oil
companies, and three being used in the
company's own service.
AS regards the position of the COM
pany's Mexican subsidiary, the Atlantic
Gulf Corporation. Joseph +. Guffey,
president, made the following state
ment:
"The Atlantic Gulf Oil Corporation
has doubled the capacity Of the twenty
two-miIe ten-inch pipe line from Los
Naranjos to the Tecomate terminal,
This will enable the company to handle
10000 barrels of oil daily, against 49,
900 heretofore.
atlantic Gulf shipped 1,347 ,225 bar
rels of oil out of Mexico last month";
Mr.. Guffey continued. "In addition it
delivered approximately 100000 bar
rels in the field, making a total of
2,437,225 barrels, or about $4,000 bar
res daily"

Bangor & Aroonstook Bonds Lack
Marketability

Question--For trustee what do you
think of Washburn Extension and St
Johns River, bonds of the Bangor &
Aroostook Railroad, due August J. 1889?
rofunding?-E 3. b.
Answer-The Bangor e. Aroostock
is sound railroad bond which, how
ever, lacks marketability If the nature
of your trust is such as to require Sc
curities that could be readily sold you
might consider some of the other rail
road bonds which we mention in these
columns as high grade. The Missouri
Pacific 5s, due 1923, are we'll secured
bonds on one of the weaker railroads.
In our opinion there are bonds of such
roads as the Atchison, Topeka g. Santa
Fe, or the Chicago, Burlington g.
Quincy, that are more appropriate for
a trusteee.

Work upon the new building, it is announced, will begin next week and an effort will be made to push it through to
 completion before the middle of August. He will immediately move his business into the new place, oc- lcupying the front, and renting the rear of the building to an auto mobile refinisher.
 MT. Rosenthal moved his business | to Paragould from Cardwell, Mo, several years ago. Upon the ap- lproach of depressed business condi- | Itions two years ago he sold his in terests in the Hampton building to MT Heaton, of North Pruet street.
