SALOMON'S FINE
In a final chapter to one of Wall Street's many scandals,
Wall Street power trader Salomon Brothers agreed to pay a $290
million fine as a settlement to a suit filed by the Securities
and Exchange Commission and other government agencies. The
investment firm admitted last August it had submitted billions
of dollars in phony bids for Treasury notes and bonds. But
unlike the benighted houses of E.F. Hutton and Drexel Burnham
Lambert, Salomon can take solace in the government's decision
not to press criminal charges.
