AN ASSIGNMENT.

John Schweitzer, owner of the Man
kato Soap Works, made an assignment
this afternoon to Henry Robel. The
assignment was voluntary, but was
occasioned by the threat of some of
the creditors to sue him. The step
was made necessary by the injury
which Mr.. Schweitzer received to his
eyes two months ago, for since that
time he has not been able to sell the
product of the factory or do business.
The assets are $1,000 and the liza
bilities $3,7OO. The assets comprise
the soap factory phantom which there
is an option of $4,000, which can be
secured at any time. 1t is thought
that the creditors will be paid
in full, although a year
or more may be required. The plant
is leased to parties for eighteen
months, at $50 month, and this lease
cannot be interfered with, Thos.
Hughes is attorney for the assignee.
Mr.. Schweitzer's factory started out
successfully and was greatly enlarged
last spring to meet the demands OF
the growing business. Had 1t not
been for the unfortunate accident
which almost deprived him of his
sight. Mr.. SchweitZer would have
built up large trade, as his business
was a good one.

rived in the city last night, from ST..
