stance Thai no meution of the fact of his
leaving is made in Chicago papers is appeal

shows how much credit is due to all the 9th.

in The Chicago papers for correct informa-

which for the last year OF two have been
advertised in the Chicago papers, from sale
and secured them in what hands he doubt

inferences from these facts as they please;
but to us they look amazingly like the pre-
paraiory steps to wind up and blow out.
