Stylish Livery Stable.

The new livery stable of Hull & Wright,
$50 feet deep and 80 feet in width, proves
to be too small for their business, and they
have purchased another lot, $50 by 20. in
the rear of their new stable, thus giving
them a front on the river as well as on Ill
inois street, On the new lot they have
erected brick building, fronting the riv-
er, with depth of 70 feet, which is finish
ed into ground and box stalls. On the
remainder of the lot they will erect sheds
and use it for yard in which they can
turn horses loose when necessary. 1t
will thus be seen that Hull & Wright are
pretty we'll fixed for room. The Illinois
street front has neat Office on one side Of
the main entrance. and a harness room OF
the other side. Over these are sleeping
rooms for their help.-and the remainder
of the second story is used tor storage fol
feed. The buildings are supplied with wa
ter and gas, and all the cohvenienoes and
comforts of modern livery establishment
But, more important to the public is the
fact that the establishment is stocked with
elegant landeaus, open and covered two anc
three seat carriages, stylish buggies and
harness of the latest fashion. Theil
horses are also spirited and stylish, anc
their drivers careful and experienced.
Several gentlemen, in town, who have
teams of their own, get them boarded a
Hull & Wright's.
The establishment is a credit to its en-
terprising proprietors, and to the city, and
we doubt not they will find an encouraging
patronage.

Company with which am connected. rs well &c to my
SELF beg to make tne following explicit statements and

Neither 1.-THE Charter Oak Life InjJrance Com
pany nor the undersigned owned or bought nor
sought to buy, any interest whatever In the
Mono any other gold silver mine in an or el'e-
where. Neither the Company nor myself ever made or
attempted make any arrangement with AIen Ste

any one else to buy anyimine as named never even
heard that any Of tho persons named bought or pro-
posed to buy any nine named Neither the Company
nor ever under any arrangement paid sl5OoO OF any
other for the purpose OF buying any mine as named
The statement that The Charter Oak Company" ever
negotiated the purchase Of any b1nds and mortgages
or other securities from B. F. Allen in the amount of
s5OoOO0 other for the alleged reasonthat IL
would rather do than have the fact known that Its
President and Treasurer had used sl500o OF its
funds" is untrue In all respects. The Company never
agreed loan Il. F. Allen any sum OF money whatever,
nor did In its behalf agree.

vance large-or other-suni OF money Allen.

on my or its part that The should be repaid. The
last Statement in the complaint which ffcts " The
Charter Oak Life Insurance Company is the only one
concerning which has any foundation In fact, but
even this all material matters Is grossly inaccurate
The Company agreed to buy OF Allen, Stephens
& Co. such 10 per cent bonds and mortgages on
Iowa property a. Mr. Allen might furnish them. II the

1t is sufficient to state in addition that for whatever
