Spiegel Inc., the owner of the Eddie Bauer clothing store chain, failed to disclose information about the company's deteriorating condition to investors and may have manipulated some data to stave off a Chapter 11 filing, according to a court-appointed examiner. Spiegel's majority owner, the Otto family of Germany, and its audit committee, rejected advice to file financial reports because they were worried that the company's creditors would refuse to extend credit, according to the report, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
