Brynu Scores TaftBryan said today
Secretary Taut in his speech made hithis Territory a days o advises thepeople to reject the proposed constitutionand postpone Statehood until aether en-abling act can be secured At first blushOne might suspect that the Secretarys-advkjt was due to his personal interest Inthe next election He might be accused ofadvising the postponement of Statehoodwith a view to keening electoralvotes out of the Democratic column
more generous view taken oC the mat-ter is that his advice resulted from hishabits of thought
Taft is inclined to postpone everythingHe promises to acquire the title of thegreat postponer He is on his way tothe Philippines to tell the Filipinos thatwhile he thinks they ought t have selfgovernment after a while he Vajits itpostponed for the present It te m istrange therrfore that he should yield tohs ruling spirit ia the saskter nf State-hood ad y ti t p t

ket Provo to De Successful
New York Sept 6 The Importantgrain and stock brokerage house of Wata n A Co 24 made an-
HMicnwent today to W Frank Newellmanager of the Now York office
Neither the assignee nor Jill attorneyShlnnd Shoemaker Hedges of M
Pine street would make any estimate ofthe Amount of the assets or liabilitiesboth saying that may had insufficienttim for the preparation of won A roughcompilation In wellInformed bunkingotrolea however It wag said the liabili-ties are largo cud this belief Is strength-ened by the fact that the firm did alarger business than any other that hitssuspended in the past year It was es-
timated that the liabilities might aggroKate fMMM The siesta aro known tobe large and statement from repre-
sentatives of toe thin to the offset that itwould be able to pry in full was creditedin substantial banking quarters
Watson Co was known as a Hillhouse tot the reason principally thatboth the Arm awl its oeetowsra were fi-
nanciers of tfie Hill stocks GrstftNorthern and Northern Faclac and thatthe firms largest clientele was in theNorthwest The shrinkage in the marketvalve of these stocks Attorney Shoe-
maker said WM the principal caua ofthe failure
The members ol Arm are Louie T
Watson Henry P Watson Herschell VJones and Charles X Andrews Louis TWatson lives at tK trOt avenue thiscity the others in Milwaukee and in the
letter city members of the arm were en-
gaged in business aa grain brokers beforethe Arm began business in this city Thestock exchange membership was acquired
and the New York ofltee opened in Jan-
uary im-rklamltyu Jone mi ilrpert
Herschel V one of the partnersis well known aa one sf the most promi-
nent crop experts In the country Calam-ity Jones be has been dubbed by specu-
lators whom market commitments wereat variance with hie predictions He wasformerly publisher of the CommercialWest a publication devoted to the grainInterests and the accuracy of esti-mates of the crop yields brought him intofriendly relations with James J Hillwho thought well of him aa crop expertThis relationship gave rtee to a story to-
day that one of Mr Hills sons had anaccount with the hone Mr HUt deniedthis report emphatically
The firm had offices in Duluth HotSprings Minneapolis and Winnipeg anda branch on Fifth avenue this city
In addition to the Stock Exchangemembership it was a member of the Pro-duce Exchange Cotton Exchange andCoffee Exchange in this city ChicagoStock Exchange Chicago Board of Tradeand Minneapolis Chamber of CommerceIt did a very large buetneee in grainand stocks for Northwestern customersand was accounted one of the most im-
portant of the wire houses of this cityThe firms resources at the beginning
of the year were very large In weather-ing the March panic and the subsequent
weeks It was raid the firm wasobliged to dispose of the greater part ofits holdings of the Hill stocks at a sacri-fice and undoubtedly lost also from thefailure of customers to keep up marginsfor many of fts customers in the Northwest speculated heavily in the Hill shores
ResonrccB Badly StrainedThe resources were undoubtedly badly
strained in the spring decline Subse-quently however Watson Co took avery active position on tho bull side of thewheat market H V Jones was one ofthe first crop experts to predict a shortage in the wheat crop and he followedthe Initial prediction by others muchmore emphatic In the wheatmarketspeculation which led to dollar wheat inJuly the house was reputed to hold forItself and customers quite as wheatas any other Eastern concern Thosewho had reason to fear tho solvency ofthe house earlier year considered
the profits from wheat providingthey were converted into cash wouldmake good much of the loss in tho Hillshares
Attorney Shoemaker said today thatthe firm sustained no losses whatever fromits operations in the wheat market butthat profits had been gained for all itscustomers who dealt in grain The prin-cipal he said accrued from theslump in the highpriced stocks GreetNorthern Northern Pacific and othersThe failure was not even precipitatedby this weeks decline in wheat
PrtiflttnkcrM Cause TroubleAnother report of the firm said that the
immediate reason for the failure was theinsistence of large customers of the firmmany of them men with large profitsin wheat on closing out their accountssad securing their profits A canvassof the assets uf the firm it wasshowed that it would be unable to payall customers large and small alike andit was deemed advisable to assign norder that all might be treated on thesame basis This representative inferredthat the firm had for months had along waiting list Many customers whomade paper profit through It by takingthe short stele of the market had beencompelled to wait In the hope that thefirm might retrieve Its fortunes As In

Lawrence Waterburys experience withW L Stow Co patience finally became exhausted
The hope that the firm may be ableto resume is based principally on thefact that the Messrs Watson havelarge holdings of lumber lands andother reel estate in Canada and otherportions of the Northwest In the presout condition of the monoy market itwas found impossible to convert thesereal estate properties Into cash
a trig sacrifice f value and banksw ro unwilling to aocept mortgages-on such undeveloped property as se
for loans In the future it ishollered those properties can be dis-
posed of to advantage and all debts I
paidWatson I Hopeful
Watson said Attorney Shoe j
maker Is of course hopeful that thelosses of the firm and particularly i
those of the customers can be met by j
the assets at a high rate on tho del f
lar All of the firms loans at thebanks are heavily margined and It isan auspicious fact that the banksno disposition to call the loans
all hopeful about the situalien
It was widely reported in the financialsection that the nrm had tAken over t
number of the amounts of JJhn W Gateshim Thi report lacked confirmation fwdwas considered improbabia on
the fact that Watson Co sustainedsevere losses prior to the liquidation ofthe Gates house
Chicago dispatches reported thfcmortthan 10MOM bushels of long wheat weresold out tot the account of the suspendedline m that city this morning The
caused a sharp break of 2 cents abushel in wheat
There was a bit of a flurry on theYork Coffee Exchange on the announomeet of the failure the various optionyiwMirs materially on reports that Mfirm was heavily interested in coffee Itwas computed subsequently howeverthat its holdings of coffee were not inexcess or 2500 bags

These cases are rendered doubly Inter-esting from tho fact that the question willbe raised whether thex North CarolinaRaIlroad the line between Goldsboro andCharlotte which is being operated by theSouthern under a ninetynineyear leaseis an integral part of the Southern sys-tem
Gov Glenn has stated that the legis-lature be called into extra sessionto repeal this lease unless the officials ofthe Southern walked very circumspectly-and unless the State was successful inthe litigation now pending
