BDDEFoRD. Oct. 1S-A heated discussion
took place last night between City Marshal

over the suspension of a police officer by the
marshal resulting in their coming to blows, and
the marshal using Mr.. Clark in violent man

been claimed the firm received, which is not
accounted for. There is no Capital account,
nor do the books show any credit to partners
for capital at any time The partners accounts
merely show the amounts withdrawn from the
business.
The total amount Withdrawn by Mr. Fayette
Shaw has been S272, ,49S.20. Prior to 1880 the
account shows an average of about $S, $50 per
annum; in 1880, 1881 and 1882 the average is
about S33 900 per annum; and in 1883 4 mos.)

been drawn the day of and day before their
suspension). These figures do not include the
cost OF estate at Newtonville, standing on the
books at S96, ,637 30. The amount Withdrawn
drawn BY his estate ($26, ,96086) aggregate
$l2o,594.5S. find no account with Mr. Brack-
ley Shaw upon the books, thus showing he
must have drawn his living expenses from
some other source than the Boston house,
neither do tind any account with the firm of
Shaw Bros. & Cassills of Montreal.
No inventories appearing as having been
taken it is impossible to give an accurate state
ment of the firms condition at any designated
time, and as they never have been in the habit
of keeping ledger account with their mer-
chandise creditors, it is equally as difficult to
accurately state their liabilities as their assets.
The trial balances afford about all the informa-
tion 1t is possible to get.
STRANGE DEALINGS IN ACCOMMODATION NOTES,
Prior to January l, 1888, there had been few
notes received by T. Shaw & Bros. solely for
their accommodation in comparison with the
amount subsequently shown. Notes OF other
parties received by the firm which were sold
and proceeds used by themselves (F. Shaw &
Bros.) were treated on their books as their
own payable, they giving receipts to the
firms or individuals for the notes, in which it
was expressly stated that f. Shaw & Bros,
would pay the notes at maturity and such
notes were in many instances made payable at
2SS Purchase street, Boston. Notes received
by Z. ShaW y Bros. ION account of leather
were treated as receivables, and duiy credited
to the respective promisors. Another class Of
notes receivable were notes received from
parties to whom they advanced money and
took notes from them, practically discounting
the paper Each Of those separate classes ap-

sioners, and a Saving OF $500 a
Month Effected.
The County Commissioners, late last
evening, decided to lease Bullion
Block for the use of the county Off
Gals until the courthouse shall have
been built. The rent to be paid is
$400 per month. At present the
county is paying $3.50 per month for
county offices. The Assessor has no
office. To provide him with one
would cost $50 per month. Total
rent $500 per month, which the
county would have to pay If the
Bullock Block were not available.
AS three or four rooms of the
Bullion Block can be rented to
non-otficials, the county will realize
from these $75 to 800 per month,
leaving the net amount of rent to be
paid $500 per month"; saving of
5000 per month over what is paid at
present, and with far superior accom-
modations than now.
The Recorders Office will be moved
Sunday, as Mr.. Fox wishes to do all
he can to accommodate the nuhl;c hv
keeping his office open unintcr-
ruptedly on legal days.
