and the other at some point south for
the use of the pool liners. The price

twelve Thousand dollars. The manage
ment of the affair at this time is in the
hands of a committee, whose decisions
are final. Two freight agents will be
employed at St. Louis, and facilities for
transscting and increasing business will
be adopted st St. Louis and elsewhere. /"
