But Few Facts Come-nt-able. Special to the Gazette. LONGVIEW, TRX, Dec. 25.-A total deposit of $60,000 to $75,000, besides other obligations, is claimed by depositors as the probable amount of the liabilities of the late banking firm of F. J. Harrison & Co. The available assets are simply items of conjecture, 80 far as the public is concerned, and a feeling of unreat and general dissatisfaction is prevalent and outspoken. A number of attachments have been issued since the assignment. The following circular, Issued: yesterday, to the minds of the late depositors "throws" no light upon the financial condition of the late firm other than first remarked by them: "That but a small per cent. would be paid. LONGVIEW, TEX. Dec. 24, 1886.
