The most reliable statements place the failure at from $175,000 to $200,000.

M. whether they (Belden & Co.) were going to repudiate their stocks, ax, in that case, be wished to secure the’ bank with which he kept his account, Not receiving any satis- factory answer from Connor, Haar visited his counsel’s office, und then came back, secured the bank, and wrote bis lotter to the President of the Stock Exchange, He cid not go ward, us t to repudiate their stock wished to take advantage of bis information to fur- ther squeeze the contracts which liad been made, Ex-Senator Gross, Mr. Haar’s counsel, corroborated his client's story and said that the Liabilities of Haar & Co,, including their indebtedners to Belden & Uo, and everyone else, would amount to $175,000 to $200,000.

WHAT THE BROKERS SAY. Among the brokers wo congrogateu at the Windsor Hotel last igus the geuerai opiuion appeared to be that Mr, Bolden wus periectly justified in the action he had takeo, and that Haar’s conduct was very reprebensibie in having, a8 one of them expressed it, “gambled upon Belden’s order.’? ‘Phe conviction was expressed that the whole mutter would be fully avestigated by the governing commitieo of tho Stock Exchange and thut if Mr. Belden’s charges were proven Haar would certainty be expelled. Such occurrences, it was thought by the ‘vrokers, were xreaily to be deplored because they wepkened tho Confluence of the public in tne honesty of stockbrok- tng 1n New York.
