BELIEVERS IN BEVAN.
PARTNERS’ MISPLACED CONFIDENCE. London, September 26. The Hon. Reginald Fellowes. formerly Gerard Bevan’s partner, gave evidence at the trial of Bevan that lie only attended to clients’ stock exchange business. He generally left the financial side to Bevan in whom he had every confidence. Bevan was the leading spirit, and, as far as he knew, none of the partners objected to anything Bevan did. The balancesheet of Ellis and Company was never prepared annually, or accounts audited by outside auditors . The finance business was almost entirely controlled by Bevan and Pirie. The latter was a salaried partner with no share in the profits. Witness never doubted the firm’s solvency until the end.—(A. and N.Z.)
