Gould "aid ta be in a roslllot to
!. Million.
Nr.w Yokk, Dec. 11. The Oom-merciaJ-Advertiser
bus an inter
view with George Crouch, allinn
inn that i' .Sou Id, his son Geoige,
and their follo.veia are heavily
f-hort of the market. Gould is
asserted to be badly trapped, an 1
in duncer of los'llltf millions. A
bip sensation in the market is ex
peeled. Crouch eaya it is well
known that wh in Gould obtained
the controlling interest of the
Union Pacific he opposed Adama,
who w as otioled, and some say he
evidently tried to throw the road
into the hands of a receiver, but
Morgan and the Vaniforhilta took
charge of the floating debt for
three years, and blocked the plan.
When these facts are considered it
will be seen the Gould people
stand to lose something up in the
millions. Some people say Gould's
only salvation will be eome terriic
crash, such as.the "black Friday,"
in which event he can buy in tiia
short interest 8 at a profit.
