The Evening Star, in an article entitled "Alarm Among Oil Speoulaton," says that his prolonged absence, in connection with the nature and extent of tiie'buslneee done with him, "have given rise to many ugly reports. He began, business here last June, and has conducted what Is known as a syndicate business. Customers let* uuuqgins with him, but he bought and sold at.tys own discretion, accounting ti the customer for profits when acD counts were allied. The success of his speculations has been so wonderful that it has. given rise to talk since his departure from the oity. He has paid profits on the deposits left him amounting in many cases to more than SO per cent a month. Attracted by the reports of these phenomenal profits many persons have come forward with their money, and it is estimated that bo has in his luuids from 1100,000 to $300,000 belonging to his customer*. There are, it is said, over 50b persons involved as customers, including not only business men of tbe city but department clerks of every grade.

Thus, the New York city revenue bonds, carrying 'CtxA and 3 per cent.

The Equitable Life Assurance society also luaued the fane value on similar lionds.
