A O Brown & Co Faces Suspension and Fallout
The firm A O Brown & Co and partners confront temporary embarrassment and possible exchange suspension after market manipulation on a recent Saturday. Reports say big customers and other firms are in difficulty while the Santo Domingo mining venture and Whitney, Stephenson & Co. troubles cascade through the Pittsburgh and New York markets.
Stock Firm's Letters Hint at Market Recovery
Mr. Buchanan said last night the firm had practically no outstanding contracts on the New York Cotton Exchange. A. Brown married a daughter of George Arents, but his wife obtained a divorce in 1902. William Rockefeller denied business through A. Brown & Co. amid rumors. The firm's suspension interest attaches to market letters to customers. Saturday's letter cited a clearing elevation and higher prices likely. Monday's letter noted fundamentals remain good and purchases at current levels could show profits.
