Mr.. Adler remarked that $1,000 was
all the stock and business was worth
when Mangler got it. Continuing, he
said that SimonS had been great suf-
ferer from rheumatism for manv months
and was totally unable to conduct the
business. He tAdler) had not been i'll

had understood that Mr.. Boas, Simons'

him out of his embarrassments,
and he had received inStruc-
lions TO inform the creditors that
all bills would be met on March l. The
rent of the building was 5000 a month,

was no such intention on his part. He
had been in his employ ten years, and
