Speyer & Co. Senior
Partner Decides to
Retire at 70
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June 13.-The 91-
year-old Wall Street banking firm
of Speyer g. Co., which was closely
identified with railroad financing
since the 1905, announced today
it would discontinue business on
June 30.
Dissolution of the concern was
arranged after James Speyer, 78-
year-old senior partner, decided to
retire from active business.
The Speyer banking house was
founded in New York in 1848 by
Philip Speyer, uncle Of James Speyer.
At first it was mercantile firm and
dealer in foreign exchange, and
bore the name of Philip Speyer & Co.
Around the time of the Civil War
the firm branched out into securities,
and during the war it marketed a
substantial amount of United States
Government bonds issued to finance
the Union cause.
Then the mercantile business was
abandoned, and the concern began
specializing in railroad and foreign
government bonds.
In the course of its long Wall
Street history, the house partici-
pated in many railroad reorganiza-
tions. including those of Baltimore
& Ohio st. Louis e. San Francisco,
Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific,
Missouri, Kansas e. Texas, and In
ternational & Great Northern. 1t
also handled numerous railroad re-
funding operations.
In the early days of western rail-
road construction Speyer e. Co. pre-
pared the plans for the late Coils P.
Huntington to finance the Central
Pacific and the Southern Pacific.
In the field OF foreign securities,
it sold in this country the rst Offer
ings of Mexican and Cuban govern
ment issues. After the World War,
it was prominent in distribution of
South American and European
bonds to American investors.

"Now is the time to cease post

Let us not associate the idea of
holy love with alter alone, but
