E. \. WNLCH CLOCK COMPANY.
Facts Regarding the e-Organization of
 the Concern,


 the Concern,
 Bristol, Dec. 11--Surmises have been numerous, and some newspapers have given out varying statements in regard to the starting of the large plant of the F. N. Welch Manufacturing com pany of Forestville. The Hartford Times now presents the facts as as- certained from headquarters.
 The time when the company will start the works cannot be definitely stated, as the officials do not know, but it will be when certain plans are carried out. The property is again in the hands of the company. MT Free man, the receiver, has paid every claim in full and the company is in full pos session of the plant (estimated to be worth $500,00W, including the factories, tools, machinery and the Teal estate, everything being intact.
 The stockholders have voted to re- duce the capital stock to $100, ,00o, which has been done, and this stock to-day represents the valuable plant in aues- tiOn. They have also voted to increase the capital stock from $100000 to $300,- 900 5000 shares at $o5 eachl, and thE stock books are nov opan for sGh$&rip- tions, and are in the hands of George W. Mitchell who was appointed by the stockholders to receive subscrip- tions. The old ottiaefs who were in authority when the plant went into the receivers hands two years ago are in authority again, and will remain until a certain amount of the new stock is taken, when a Stockholders meeting will be called and a board of directors, elected to represent all interest, both new and old. When $100,0o0 of the new stock has been subscribed, an assess ment will be called, the reorganization will be completed, and the business will be immediately started The stock sub scription book was opened December 10, and considerable amount of the new stock was taken at once.
 The above statement of the plans of the company is absolutely correct. It will be welcome news to everybody in ForestVille and Bthstol. ForestvlIle was for many years the busy end of the town of Bristol owing to the large employment of labor by this com pany.
 under the management of the men who are more than likely to handle it's affairs for the future, the company promises to become, as it was a dozen years ago, one of the largest and most prosperous clock companies in the cnun- try, for the Welch clock always had an excellent reputation in the market.

 The fact has already been made pub lie that two members of the senior class in Storrs college were recently suspended for two months and four for three months. To seniors. during the work of last year, this is about equiva- lent to a dismissal.
 The offensa for which the young men were disciplined was breaking into the storeroom and eating some of the stores. They had been engaged in their regular school work in studying some tuber- culin tests and had to sit up until 1 in the morning to take the tempera- lures hourly of the cattle operated on. When they returned to the building they were hungry. They couldn't find anything eatable elsewhere, and the storeroom was suggested. The hasp of the fastening was pried off with an axe, the door opened, and their hun ger satisfied. They went to bed.
 The discovery of the robbery created a great commotion but the party of guilty fellows were told that they would be let off if they would give away the name of the one who pried the hasp off. This they all manfully refus- ed to do. They said they were all in it; it was only an accident which of them happened to open the door, and they'd all stand together Then they were threatened with being turned over to the civil authorities and being sent to Wethersf1ald for breaking and enter ing. At this, it is reported, some of them had to smile, but none would

Bridgeport, Dec. 11.-Judge Curtis in his decision yesterday dismissing the injunction prayed out some time ago restraining Treasurer Charles Northrop and First Selectman William B. Glover paying from the towns funds those who backed Miss Ellen Ryan in her famous fight with the Gray's Plain school visit ors d. year ago, says that it is incon- ceivable how the money affairs of a town could be conducted in such a free and easy manner as the admissions Of the defendants disclosed. Still this had been in vogue many years. Decision was given against George Winton, the plaintiff, as there was no real evidence against the defendants in the case, but he is required to pay as costs only the actual disbursements.
