Cascade International Inc., a fashion chain near the top of BusinessWeek抯 1990 list of 揾ot growth companies,� announces that its chairman, Victor Incendy, has disappeared -- along with more than 200 of Cascade抯 stores. Incendy had claimed that Cascade had between 255 and 400 outlets -- but in reality, there are fewer than 30. The company had reported earning $11 million the previous year; it actually lost $7 million. At its peak price of $11.62 in August, Cascade抯 stock had been valued around $200 million; less than a year later, the incredible disappearing company抯 stores are sold off for a mere $370,000. Incendy has never been found and remains an international fugitive.
1993年11月20日
On this day, the Senate Ethics Committee handed down a stern censure of Alan Cranston, taking the California senator to task for his "dealings" with the scandal-ridden Savings and Loan executive Charles Keating. In the strongly worded statement, which capped off a two-year probe into the actions of the "Keating Five," the committee chided Cranston for "violating unwritten but commonly understood standards of Senate behavior." Specifically, Cranston had pursued $800,000 in "charitable contributions" from Keating during the same period in which he had acted with Federal regulators to defend Lincoln Savings and Loan, Keating's troubled operation. However, an enraged Cranston took to the Senate floor to rebut the claims brought against him. "Nothing I did violated a law or Senate rule," the senator declared, though he did tender an apology for engaging in behavior which gave the appearance of being improper.
