Belmont Loses 12 Million in Market Crash
United Press reports that August transferred 96 million in property to Lord Meyer Rotherhild of London's banking house. The Belmont pool underwrote 206000 shares of Interborough stock at fifty, failing to push above fifty five, leaving Belmont unable to unload. Belmont’s finances suffered a roughly 12 million loss amid the panic and may have required large loans to protect holdings.
