Heavy FAILURE. - The Messenger an
nounces tho failure Of the st. Adams Foun-
derry Company, with liabilities Of hundred
thousand dollars. The principal stockhold-
ers are Edward A. Smith and John W. New
ton, and the liabilities are chiefly outside
the town. Ii is claimed that the assets are
equal. or nearly equal. to the debts. and it
is expected that time composition will be
made on large percentage. The larger
creditors are Governor and W. c. Smith
and bakers dozen Of the leading banks OF
the State. including those at st. Adams
all of whom, however. are understood to be
fully secured. The owners of the f0undery
have done a very large business but have
suffered severely since 1872, from q falling
of in railroad business. In the past two
years they have built up large business in
"horse powers, of which they we're Just be-
ginning to realize profits. The employees,
about seventy in number, will suffer little
or no loss.
10 the United States Court in this city
Tuesday. the company was sdjudicated
bankrupt and Worthington q. Smith was
appointed provisional assignee. 1t was
stated in court that the liabilities were
three hundred thousand dollars.

MORE GOSSIP ABOUT BATCHELDRR.-It is
now said that about the time Batchelder
left Middlebury, another note supposed to
have been raised from $500 to SO 500, was
found in the Brandon National Bank, and
another warrant has been issued for bis
arrest, but has not yet been served. 1t was
hoped that Batchelder might be able to
settle his business on the Is per cent offer
but it is very doubtful If be can raise the
ready money necessary to pay the first s per
cent, as his friends are not wealthy and
they have been involved to some extent in
his former transactions.
