ATCHISON, Jan. 21.-The Cawker City state bank has failed and is in the hands of a receiver. The liabilities and assets cannot be ascertained. CHICAGO, Jan. 21.-George M. Bogue was this morning appointed receiver of the Pacitic Railway Company, of Los Angeles. Cal., on complaint by judgment creditors. The bill sets forth that the company, which was organized in 1889 by C. B. Holmes, a well-known cable road man, and other capitalists with a capital of $25,000,000, is insolvent. It is stated as probable that the company will shortly be reorganized. A confession of judgment the other day for $1,628 on a note executed January 6, to Edward W. Russell by C. B. Holmes, is said to be the entering wedge in that direction. The Pacific railway is a cable road operated by C. B. Holmes. its president. Thestockholders are mostly Chicago men. Over $1,000,000 was raised in this city alone. Instead of being a paying investment the road has lost money from the start, and now its indebtedness is said to reach $500,000. The trouble seems to be that the investment was too heavy for the amount of business to be done. The recent judgment is said to be the first move by the Chicago stockholders to put the Pacific railway on a new basis. It is, "in fact, a preconcerted movement on the part of the creditors to obtain other judgments and have the road placed in the hands of a receiver. It is the intention to completely reorganize the company. It is said that the road is now earning $350,000 a year net, and that by cutting down expenses and running it on close business principles it can be made to pay, or at least clear expenses. There is a side issue in connection with this matter. A corporation known as the National Railway Company met yesterday. It is one of C. B. Holmes' street car syndicates, and it seems that some of the stock of its St. Louis lines was transferred to the Los Angeles road. The stockholders were inclined to trake a row about it, until explanations were made and a 7 per cent. dividend declared. KANSAS/CITY, Jan. 21.-While the run on the Kansas City Safe Deposit and Savings bank was continued this morning, the indications were that the end is near.
