Paying for the Breweries.

The payments under the great brewery
purchases are being made and the proper
ties have been transferred in accordance
with the contracts entered into between
the brewers andthe syndicate of capital
lists. Hereafter the breweries. while I'm.
der the same management as heretofore,
will be partly owned by the stockholders
under the syndicate's purchase, each
brewer, however, retaining a half interest
in his own brewery. The effect of the
changes on the trade are not expected to
be important one way or another, al
though it is said the brewers will be more
independent of local traffic by means of
the syndicate, which will be engaged in
opening up new markets.
1t was currently reported last week
that the payment to Gottfried Kruger, of
Newark, for the half interest in his bust
ness acquired by the syndicate amounted
to the very tidy little sum of 81, POO, 900
hard cash, and that 5000, 900 of it was
placed in government bonds at once,
while the remainder has been invested in
other ways.

Horse rhieves i'm camden.

Horse thieves have invaded Camden
county. So numerous have their visits
been of late that the farmers are becom
ing frightened. Last week the thieves
paid a visit to the stables of John Macray,
son of DR.. Macray, at Maple Shade station,
and stole his handsome and valuable
black gelding horse. When Mr.. Macray
awoke the next morning and found his
horse gone he at once commenced to
make a search throughout the surround
ing counties. All of his efforts to locate
the thief or thieves proved futile.
While Henry Kumelein, a German
farmer of Delaware township, was enjoy
ing his peaceful slumbers one night, some
malicious person broke into his barn and
stole his mule. When Mr.. Kumelein went
to his barn n morning to get his mule
to hitch to the wagon, he was dumb
founded to find the animal missing. He
at once informed the police. The mule
had the letters ~. S." branded on his
neck. Mr.. Kumelein says he traced the
animal as far as Beideman's station when
he lost all traces of it.
Detectives have been engaged to locate
the thieves.

The actions of an agent of the Germania
Brewing Company to force saloonkeepers
to take their beer under threat of prevent
ing them from securing a license has
aroused the Indignation of a large num-
Der of the retail liquor dealers in Camden.
1t is reported that one of the members of
Excise Commissioners is cognizant of the
threats made against s~aloonkeepers.
Excise Commissioners Gnang and Har-
mon disclaim that they were connected in
any manner with the attempt to force the
Germania beer, and are indignant that
an imputation should lie against them be-

matter will be laid bare, and it looks as
though the next meeting of the Excise

Pigeons for Australia.

Early last week Oscar Seifert, the New
ark pigeon fancier, received a letter from
O gentleman in Australia requesting that
three pairs of swallow pigeons be sent to
the address he enclosed. The letter con-
tanned a draft for $50 and careful direc-
lions for the transmission of the pigeons
a distance of 5000 miles. Mr.. Seifert at
once ordered a special basket made for
the birds and last Saturday afternoon
started them on their journey by express,
They go direct to California, food and
water being provided for this journey:
From there they are sent to Sydney, and
then the consignee will forward them
1880 miles by mules to their destination:
Mr.. Seifert will ~anXiously await news OF
their safe arrival.

Who wants to buy four children for 1851
That is the bargain Mrs. Selling, OF
Mill street, neal the Phoenix Iron Works,
Trenton. is offering to her neighbors.
Mrs. Selling is holding the little ones
in satisfaction for a debt of S35, represent
ing the sum of money which their mother,
Mrs. Levi Siegel, borrowed from her. Mr..
and Mrs. Siegel lived at No. 1857 South
Warren street, but Siegel left about three
weeks ago to seek work in the country,
and later Mrs. Siegel also departed. The
family had benin a state of great poverty
and the husband sending no word home,
it is believed that the helpless mo1her
grew disheartened. The neighbors saw
her moving her household goods into an
express wagon on Friday. They were
taken away no n knew whittier. 1ne
mother stole away in the still hours OF d tnt
morning, taking with her only Inc e1uesC
child, a boy of thirteen.
The abandoned children,
and finding themselves alone. gave the
alarm. First, sympathizing neighbors
gathered and gave the little folks preak,
fast and helped to clothe their hall naked
bodies. Then, the creditors OF the olegels
began to turn up and to look around lor
goods on which they might levy. BuG no
goods worth carrying away were lett. Inc
creditors commenced to depart dlscour-
aged. 1t was then that the novel ldea
seized Mrs. Selling to capture the chill
dren and hold them for her bill OF 80.
She acted ON the idea, and before tne
astonished spectators could well under
stand the situation Mrs. Selling had the
children around to her own house on Mill
street.
A little later, Overseer of the Poor Ker-
sew. into whose hands all the waits and
homeless children usually fall, heard OF
the affair and went out to investigate
He found Mrs. Selling in possession and
she had no hesitation in telling him that
the children would cost him $35 If he
wanted them. Seeing what she Thought
a desire on his part to secure them, she
offered to lower the price to $50. Mr..
Kersey replied that as soon as the city
wanted the children they would be taken
from her without q price. He thought,
however, he would first try to lind the
~absconding parents and in the meantime
he warned Mrs. Selling that she would
be held responsible by the city for the
good care and treatment of the orphans,
BY this time Mrs. Selling began to
think that maybe she had gone into an
improbable speculation, but she prom,
ised to keep the children well, and added
that the parents must repay her the S35
loan before they are returned. In the
party are three girls and one boy, the boy
being six years old and the girls four,

j. b. Wright, alias Wilson, Is In Town
Mr.. j. B. Wright, who short time
ago was charged with swindling the
Singer Sewing Machine Co. out of con-
siderable money, was captured in
Galesburg and brought to Ottawa late
Saturdaynight by Marshal John Rob.
erts, of that city.
He is now stopping at the MOrrissey
House, corner Columbus and Jackson
streets, where he can rest quietly and
cOmposedly and enjoy good nights
sleep.
Mr.. Wright is in all probability
wiser than he was owing to the little
attention he had given to the question
of enlightenment. 1t is charged that
he got himself mixed up in his bust
ness affairs, and as his cash account
failed to balance, the Singer Co. call
ed on him to straighten the matter
out. He thereupon left the town a
few days ago. But as he had not the
skill in hiding developed by Willie
Tascott, he is with us once more. He
will be given an opportunity to eX-
plain his actions to-day.
Marshal Roberts says he is an old
confidence man, travelling under sew
eral aliases, and has just paid a fine
for selling liquor without license in
GaleShurg.

Both the trader and the wage work

Both the trader and the wage work
er are producers, and both suffer un-
der present conditions. In no one To-
cality are all the various needs OF hui
mainly produced, and the things there
produced are always In excess of local
demand. 1t Is the merchant who I'M
dertakes to place this surplus and
bring in the things not produced; he
takes the surplus coal from the mine
to some distant point where coal is
not found and, in doing this, he
clearly adds value to the coal; his ac-
tivity as much productive labor as
yours is when you bring the coal to
the surface. If in doing this he uses
capital, in the form OF transportation
or otherwise, only such part is entitled
to just remuneration for use; the bal
ance is purely labor.
The identity of trade and exchange
with labor is clearly shown when a
farmer:brings eggs and butter to town
and exchanges them, without the
prssing of money, for groceries and
other supplies.
The farmers truck as well as the
things he gets for them are labor pro-
ducts from widely separated localities
| it way be. TO the farmer the grocer
les are worth more than they were to
the men who raised coffee and sugar
a thousand miles away. And to the
Chicago family the eggs and the but
ter are more valuable than they were
to the La Sale county farmer. The
labor activities of the merchant who
facilitates this exchange evidently
created this increased value as it
passed from one to the other.
In every trade, every exchange, con
Quoted on IA basis of equity both par
ties receive benefit. They give what
they do not want and receive what
they desire.
A restriction of free exchange and
trade between any two parties in the
world on any ground whatsoever is
therefore necessarily restriction of
labor itself, and can only be in the in
terest of bogus capital controlling tn,
free activities of mankind in order t
rob them. GEORGE G.. GUENTHER

Judge Dibell rendered decision in
the case of the brothers Cleave against
the widow of the late John Cleave,
Saturday, dismissing the plaintiffs
bill. In handing down the decision,
the Courts opinion was able and eX-
haustive. He reviewed the evidence
from the opening Of the plaintiff to
the close of the defense. The proofs
of the plaintiffs were incomplete and
the preponderance of the evidence
rested with the defence.
Miss Cleave, sister of the broth
ers Cleave, as stated in a recent issue
of the FREE TRADER, died several
years ago, and John Cleave, one of the
brothers, produced what purported to
be the last will and testament of his
sister, bequeathing to him all of heI
effects, both real and personal. Armed
with this instrument, he persuaded the
other heirs to quit claim the property
to him in order to save him needless
court costs. The present bill recited
that the will was fraudulent and had
been forged by the father of the com
plainant In order to give John Cleave,
his favOrite son, the entire estate
This bill, the Court dismissed. The
compliments appealed to the Supreme
Court.

Duck shooting is very poor this IA

Duck shooting is very poor this fall
on Illinois river, says the Lacon
Journal. The extreme low water
leaves the birds no room for feeding
grounds, and added to this the large
number of pot-hunters out daily, the
ducks do not tarry. On the wide
river in the neighborhood of Spring
Bay there are great tlocks, but they
cannot be lured close to a flock of de-
coys. BY present appearances there
will be no shooting until the birds mi
crate south, and then it will last only
a few days.
The season. however, may be little
early, as the birds do not begin to
move much until the cold weather
drives them to the deep water of the
river August and September, when
the acorns begin to fall, is the season
for wood-duck shooting, but these
birds are now scarce hereabouts, while
the mallard shooting does not begin
until later The capture of IA large
part of the shooting ground by lease
of territory by Chicago club, how
ever, materially reduces the territory
available to the hunter, except those

ance with the Illinois river shooting
