The Toronto Star of Tuesday says : "Hundreds of share- holders are still withholding their stock •certificates and • books, and thereby hampering the efforts of the liquidators in endeavoring to get the affairo of the company straightened out. The staff of clerks who were taken over from the York Loan offfices are still employed in the work. The liquidators at first de- termined to withhold all statements of assets and liabilities until the shareholders' books were all in. In view of the difficulty experienced in collecting the book, however, it is not impossible that an interim state- ment may be prepared for the share- holders in a few weeks. In the mean- time the liquidators await the ad- vent of a car line up Ronceavales av- enue, before makihg aegeneeaj effort to dispose of the vast areas of York Loan property in that diatrict." If any who read this paragraph have not yet returned their palm books ahd stock certificates thy should do se at once. They can not possibly gain anything by retaining them, but stand to lose, and as will be seen by the above they are retarding the work a the liqiiidetors. Parties desiring to return their books can do so through tbe •Ba,Ok of Commerce, Seaforth, and can depend on their being promptly forwarded to the proper quarter. Death Of alr.
