In the Hole as Reported.

In the Hole as Reported.
PHILADELPHIA, August 30.-A state
ment of the assets and liabilities ot
Lewis Bros. & c., which was filed in this
city and New York today is much better
than expected. The creditors of the
firm were gratiied when the figures we're
given to them, and the general opinion
was that the firm could tide over it's
trouble and make a satisfactory settle
ment with the creditors. Some surprise
was expressed by the creditors at the
amount of the liabilities named in the
inventory.
After the failure of the firm various
estimates, ranging from 100000 to
SC, 900, 900, were given. The delay in the
publication of the statement was looked
upon as an indication that the statement
would be bad. Inquiry today disclosed
the fact that since the failure Mr.. Bliss,
the assignee, has labored arduously, and
has succeeded in Settling a number of
matters in New York." to quote from a
member of the firm.
New YORK, August 30.-The assignee
OF Lewis Bros. & Co. makes statement
showing that the assets are 81 1929 900

California Asphalt the Best.

LOUISVILLE, August 30.-A deposit of
asphalt has been discovered near
Cloverport, Ky. 1t covers large area,
and is thirteen feet thick. 1t is just be.
low the surface, and can be mined at
very small cost. A comparison of it
with asphalt discovered in California and
used on the streets of San Francisco
shows the two to be almost identical in

mURDERERs HANGED.
An Uxoricide swung Off at Gambler
land, Md.

CUMBERLAND, Md, August 30.-Mel.
vim Garlitz, who murdered his wife, was
hanged this morning. Death was in
stantaneous.
Garlitz was about 26 years of age, and
was a worthless character, although his
father is an old and respected citizen
and ex-Sheriff OF the county. While
Sheriff it was his painful duty to hang
four men, and the tragedy which re-
suited in the hanging of his son today
has left the old man broken-hesrted.
Young Garlitz eloped with a Miss
White, young lady of good
family, four or five years ago.
The marriage was Objectionable to her
parents, but they forgave her, and took
her and her husband home. After living
about two years at his father-in-law's g
expense, and leading quarrelsome and
dissolute life, Garlitz was driven from
the home of the Whites. He then be-
came wanderer, returning to Cumber-
land from time to time and meeting his
wife clandestinely. At one of these
meetings last May he shot the woman in
cold blood, giving as his reason for 80
doing that she confessed to him that she
had been untrue to him during their
separation. This made him insane with
jealousy. and in fit of rage he killed
her and fed. He was soon captured,
however, and made full confession, ex-
pressing the greatest remorse and peni-
tence for his crime.

him and his family. The pa sonage had
been properly warmed and a table pre-
pared with the necessary edibles to satisfy
the appetite which had been sharpened
by the travel from the Lower Brandywine
Church, distance of about % miles.

that it will long be remembered by all
who were present, and the new pastor
will be stimulated TO greater effort to
make himself use ul as well as acceptable
in that portion of the masters vineyard.
