The indictment at Hartford of Messrs. Walkley,
White, Furber and Wlggin, for con-
spring to defraud, gives present inter-
est to the carefully prepared history, pub
lished below, of the Charter Oak Lifo
Insurance Company, which they arc charged with
having brought nearly TO ruin that it is doubtful
if the most strenuous efforts of the present managers
can save it. Reckless expenditures, wildly specula-
tive investments, and contracts Of questionable ie-
gality make up the dismal story.

The number Of paper mills In the United
States In 1873 was s12 In 1877 the number
had increased to 934, and In 1878 to 94S. For
the year ending June 80, 1869, the imports OF
paper and stationery into the United States
aggregated in value $527. 465, whilst the ex-
ports Of the same articles amounted to only
1s777; but for 1873 the imports only footed up
Sls5, 4s7 In value, whilst the exports ran up to
1,10s, 1913. The imports now consist almost
exclusively OF certain fashionable writing pa
pers and paper hangings, with whose popu-
larity cost and excellence have little to do.
The prestige incident to their foreign make
renders them fashionable, and alone finds
them sale here. Their quantity is now SO
enall that no American maker concerns him
self about it, In the meantime the prospect
for an increasing demand for American paper
abroad Is very gratifying. as 1t pleases con-
sumers, and the extension OF sales Is now
merely matter Of well-regulated effort.
