Allen further stated that the captain was exceedingly cool, in fact, he did not seem to look upon the danger as serious or pressing, and this, together with the fact that he appeared in no hurry to save himself, was possibly the cause why more of the passengers were not saved.

Grant Ward announce a closing on ao count of the failure of the Marine Bank. The suspension of Grant is announced on the Stock Exchann. The firm is composed of General U. S. Grant, James D.

Fish, U. S. Grant, and Ferdinand Want, about 600 shares. Kiernan's Wall street agency furnishes the following: There are minora of a defalcation of about 5500,000, accompanied by the suspension of the Marine Bank. The party in question is said to have had close relations with the bank.

We have investigated and got the following statement: The embarrassment of Grant Ward is said, on reliable authority, to be due to the absence of one of the firm, who has not been at his place of business since Saturday. Various rumors are afloat in financial circles, respecting which Mr. Grant, senior member of the firm, says: 'I cannot deny or corroborate the reports current. Wo are nearlv 500,000 short. Our safes are locked until we can find Mr.

Want. I cannot say how we stand." At the office of Grant Ward no member of the firm could be found. William Smith, broker of the firm, said he was authorized to state that the losses of the firm would be something between 5500,000 and and these liabilities being unsecured, the firm wa obliged to suspend. Each of four partners had a quarter interest in the firm to the extent of 5100,000 each, and General Grant would be liable for his share of the losses, which would probably be about 5250,000. General Grant was in the office during part of the day, but refused to make any statement whatever in regard to the affairs of the firm.
