Kloltl , Iiliitlloy tV Coniiny'.H | : l'nlhin > More Cointilom Than nt Flrnt Itcportcti lOfl'oriK to Snvo Fluid's Coot ! NK\V YOIIK , Nov. DO. The World this morning prints : A family conference was I held on Saturday and yesterday nt the home of Cyrus \V. Field. No. ISt East Twentyj j first street. Those who took part In It were Cyrus W. Field , his brothers , I avld IJudluy nnd Stephen .1. Field ; Oorgo DcForcst Lord , of the llrm of Lord , Uiy & Lord , Cyrus \V. Field's counsel , nnd u representative of Oroxcl , Morgan .t Co. J. Plorropont Morgan wns called In , because ever slnco bo Inter- rosed to save Cyrus W. Field In the Manhnt- tnn elevated road deal , ho has taken an nctlvo interest in Mr. Field's financial affairs. The conference wns held to decide xvhnt course should ho taken by Cyrus \\.FIcld regarding Kdward M. Field. Tbo situation , in brief , wns found to bo this : Kdwnrd M. Field's liabilities , arising from tbo peculiar conduct of his business , which Is such as to give rise to Intimations of defalcation and forgery , amount to millions. To satUty the claims of his creditors would require Cvrus \V. Field's fortune nnd considerable more. The question which the conference had to decide wns whether Cyrus \V. Field should sacrifice his ontlro fortune for the purpose. The family honor wns nt stake. Family pride shrank from the prospect of the public disgrace of a Field. It was u reed that nn unstained iiamo should bo saved. Thcro had been enough tnlk. The breath of scandal , had already touched Kdwnrd M. Field's fair | nnmo. Could not nil this bo stopped , nml n lortuno once great bo pledged for sweet honor's sake ? When the desperate situation bad boon fully discussed on nil sides. It was flnnllv de cided , in view of the fnct that oven if Cyrus \V. Field should sncrillco his ontlro fortune , ho would not bo nblo to meet the liabilities of his son , that ho should not make the sacrifice. Mr. Ulllon was nskcd if he had heard that Cyrus \V. Field might co > no to the rescue of his son. Mr. Dillon looked very grave as bo said : "I don't know what the ammint of Mr. Field's fortune Is , but it would Indeed bo well could ho use part of It to hulp his son in tbo present unhappy circumstances. " 'i'ho condition of Cyrus \V. Field , accord- Inp to Ur. Fuller , his physician , showed no material change. Dr. Fuller said that Mr. Field required absolute rest and quiet. None of the numerous sympathizers who called during the day was permitted to visit the sick chamber. Two tliousnnd dollar : , in pow rents , turned over to E. M. Field as trustee of the Tarry- town Presbyterian church , is missing. Ho was treasurer of the association which owns tbo Washington building where bis ofllcos are. Ho collected $ I,0)0 ! , ( ) in rents , nnd sunk the money in his struggle to avert impending doom. There wns no material change in the aspect , of nfTnirs in the office of the suspended llrm this morning. Assignee Gould said ho know nothing of the truth or falsity of the pub lished reports of alleged crooked transactions by Field. The statement that , ho had given any such Information to n reporter , ns was stated , was untrue. Ho was trying to po.t at the facts , but us yet had learned but Ilttlo. Ho had sought in vain for the assets , but was unable to get oven enough to pay the clerks. There is ho bank account whatever , and only a faint hope remains with him that there might DO some call loans belonging to the firm upon which ho might bo able to realize something to defray the necessary cxnenbos. A report wns published that n warrant for the arrest of E. M. Fields had been Placed In the hands of Inspector Byrnes and that ho had detectives watching Field's house. The Inspector toiu y positively denied that there was any truth In either of those state ments. A number of Innocent holders of Union Pacific stock disposed of by tbo llrm bold a meeting this morning nnd drafted a petition to the committee on securities of the stock exchange requesting thorn to rescind their action making the stock non-deliverable , 'i'ho interests of the Union Pacific have been placed in tbo Hand ? of A. H. Holmes. Holmes realized it would bo Impossible for the Union Pacific to regain possession of the bonds that had fallen into the hands of innocent holders nnd requested tbu committee on securities to release such bonds from their order of Sntur- dny. Upon his request it was done nnd the stock can now bo handled on the exchange. There htill remains n goodlv number of bonds the ownership of which is likely to have to bo settled in the courts. This afternoon It wns said that n careful estimate of tbo not loss which will probably result from the failure of Messrs. Field. Llndloy , Weischcrs & . Co. is about * SOOOUO , , of which $400,000 will probably fall on the Union Pacific nnd the balance scattering. As nn offset to this loss there is the investment which the firm had made in the Cuban sugar rollnrries , which Is estimated at 100,000. Whatever is realized from this asset will lesson the loss first mentioned. The announcement that the Union Pacific company Is ready totakoup the bonds from the present boldots created u much bettor fooling In Wall street. Frank . ) . Sprague obtained from Judge Lawrence of the supreme court n temporary injunction restraining Field , Llndloy , Woischors & Co. . E. A. Hussy nnd others. from disposing of certain stock of the Udl. son General F.loctrlo Light company , pendIng - Ing n suit for Us rocovory. The action ot the Stock exchange in stop ping the delivery of Union Pacific bonds was severely criticized In Wiill slroot , nnd mniiv sooinod to think n bad precedent had been established. Mr. Uiy. the secretary , tried to innko It plain to the klukors that tbo b-st thing had boon done. By the nctlon of the Stoc exchange n speedy adjustment was offcL'tcd , whereas If the bond ! , had gone on changing hand ? , lawsuits would have hern the result nnd thu bonds would have become so scaitored Unit it would have been dlfllctilt to hnvo found ttietn. It was rumored that Lludloy would bo dis ciplined oroxpollod from the exchange for soiling the botulH on the Moor , but the presi dent tmys no such action could bo taken with out formal romiiialnt , ami none had bocn made. Mr. S. V. White denies owing anything to Field , Llndloy tv Co. , but , on the contrary , that llrm Is indebted to htm. Asslgnt-o ( Jnuld admits that there has been crooked transnctlons , but attributes It nil to Mr. Fluid , nud snvs ho Is confident that hl liimtieiM know nothing of it. Ho says that Mr. Llud loy could have handled nil thc-so bonds on the Stock exchange without Knowing their his tory. Mr. Llndley , on necount of the serious Illness of his wife , who Is now nt the point of death , wont dlroctly to the Slock exchange from his homo and did not go to his office for weeks nt a tlmo. Mr. Gould sav that ho has found only f. > lK ) nssots , and there may bo $ -0,000 available , which will bo used In paying the clerks their salaries. Ho denied having had a con- , forenro with Cvrus W. Fled with reference to helping his son , but thought ho would naturally come to his aid. Cyrus W.
