dry-goods and commission merchants, referring yes
erday TO the seizure made by his firm on TUESDAY Oh
the property of the Riverside and OsweSo Mills Com
many Mt Oswego Falls on a claim of $4l2 600. bor-
rowcd money said that the action was precipitatei
by an application made recently by the Os"ego COM
pany to his firm for a loan. Jullaid, Mchenle ~
Quimby have be n the exclusive agents of the mills,
and from time to time have made advances to The
company until the loans reached the above mentioned
amount Juiliard, Mckenzie a Qumby made cash
pavments for goods and in addition accommodated
the Riverside and Oswego Mills with various cash
advances.
The last application for a loan was for a largo
amount, but MIR. Juiald decided that tho firm
should make further advances until It was sails
fed of tie solvency of the oswego company. Ito
made personal visit to OswegO, but the result
uusat>fac ory, and the suit and attachment followed.
The amount of the attachment has been reduced about
$4,000 by the receipt of consignment OF goods
which was sh pped before the attachment was male.
\ further reduction account OF a similar shipment
of goods Will reduce the amount OF the alta hment u
about T}750 900.

assuming definite shape indicated by the we'll
founded rumors which current. For several
months there has been considerable exchange Of prop
erty in Union County, y. j., and 1t has now leaked
out that the real purchaser is the Lehigh Valley
Company. The buying up of the lands was shrewdly
done by the company's land agent, assisted by his
attorneys, James II. and n c. English, of Elizabeth
They bought over twenty farms and smaller pieces Of
property i'm ROsele. Salem and IyUns's Farms. Va
r0us names were given purchasers, and bargains
we're secured in real estate that a railroad company
could not obtain. The properties bought arc pieces
which will be so cut up by the railroad as almost to
destroy their value, and the company has saved
many thousands OF dollars which would have been
awarded in suits for condemnation Of the lands.
The Lehigh Valley Company owns in Ne1Jerscy
the road from Easton, Penn, TO Perth Amboy, and
about three years ago began the construction of a
branch from the line at South Planiiel, connecting
with the Central Railroad at Roscle. This branch IS
a double track route, well constructed, end was
chartered under tho Of the South Plalnaed and
Roselo Railway Company. 1t was the first step IN
the movement to reach NcvIork.
