Gilbert & Co Ottawa firm collapse shocks farmers
The Ottawa and Chicago partners Gilbert H S Gilbert of Ottawa and Co of Ottawa faced swift loss after two judgments for over 48000 dollars and a notice that farm grain would be sent to an Ottawa bank at 40 cents per bushel. The Chicago partner suspended operations and Gilbert’s circle vows it was a squeeze move. Farmers fear a shift to La Salle for grain and a fresh firm with 150000 capital forms under John J Montgomery.
