Flying Thick and Fast in Town
 About the Condition of the Bunneu
 & Scranton Banking House - An
 Assignment Expected To-Day-The
 Latest Facts and Rumors in the
 Case.
 The interest in the affairs of the firm of Bunneu & Scranton continues unabated and as information concerning them slow ly creeps out depositors in the bank and dealers in stock do not have reason to feel any less concern relative to the outcome of their interests in the assets. In fact, the indications are that while at first there was wonder that the firm had closed it's doors there will soon be wonder that they did not close long ago. No definite informa- tion concerning the expected statement is to be had, although it is said that it will probably be made public to day. But it is pretty certain that there will be either 8 voluntary assignment.to-d day or that action will be taken which will force an assignment. The latest story concerning the condition of the firms affairs is that there are liabilities to the amount of about $500, ,OOO and assets generously estimated at from $125, ,0O0 to $150,OO Of course there is no way of verifying these figures, but the impression grows that this is about the state of the case. A number of law years have been consulted by various de- positors and customers and there will be some interesting legal proceedings. Those who have bought stocks through Bunnel & Scranton and whose stocks are being carried in New York by Prince & Whiteley or w. s. Lawson & Co. are trying to secure their property, but thus far nobody has succeeded. As there have been many legal decisions to the effect that under such circumstances as exist in this case. buyers of stocks are entitled to possession of their property by payment of whatever balance may be due on them, it is probable that after some de- lay and the necessary formalties the stocks can be obtained by those who own them.
 There continues to be excited discussion concerning the causes which has overtaken the concern. The most plausible and best authenticated of these causes is that there have been losing speculations on the part of one, or both members of the firm. Time and further investigation will per haps recall just how the losses have been made Meanwhile those who lose by the failure will not be consoled by the appear ance of the affair.

 cd of treatment in this city and through out the state.

He discussed it's influ- ences upon the old school of practice; mod ihcatlon in the a1opathic treatment, in
 troducing the use of tablet triturates, smaller doses, and often repeated, were | among the examples mentioned by the
 president as due to homeopathic inf1u- | ences.
 Among other items of business it was voted to rise the fee of admission to the society from $2 to $3 and hereafter to have the minutes of the annual meetings printed in book form.
 In reference to Grace hospital Dr. Adams
 reported that it's establishment is now
 practically an assured fact, as the S2O, O,OOO had been nearly raised which was necessa- ry in order to obtain the appropriation of a like amount from the state. He said further that preparations for opening the hospital would soon be started. It was voted te hold the next meeting

Sad Results of Banning Chair-An 1 Interesting Relic From the Trum- l bull War Office.

 writes to the Hartford Courant the follow

 1 The recent discovery of old papers un-
 der the floor of the war office at Lebanon l will form the beginning of valuable col

 some others, tells little story of revolu- tlonary days in Lebanon in such form that | 1t is interesting as curiosity. The paper | is addressed in handsome time hand | writing:

 war on parole at Lebanon awaiting his ex- change. From the fact that the word apology does not appear to have been a familiar one in his otherwise well-spelled vocabulary, it may be supposed that there was about him at least a suspicion of that British insolence, which was not at all palatable to the good people of Lebanon in the days of '76, and which may have been productive of what he was pleased to call insults from the People of the Town. This supposition will, perhaps, be borne out by the calm view which the lapse of more than century gives to the now cold. but then rather warm view of the case as it appears on the exparte statement of ''Edw.
