MIR. Frank Corrects Statements Made b,
His Agent.


Mr.. Joseph Frank. OF the firm OF FRANK
Brothers, proprietors Of the Southern
Colonization and immigration Bureau
with headquarters In New York was N
the city yesterday. and said that the
Statements made by Nj. B. Alter MS
agent. in regard to Peter Otto, the Lu-
nenburg settler. who complained that
his wife was badly treated and ms prop
erty taken away by several citlzehS ol
Lunenburg, was unauthorized, ana con-
veyed an erroneous impression
Mr.. Frank said that otto was peace
able fellow. and not a drinking man. as
stated by Mr.. Alter. The difficulty SAID
he. arose from the fact that otto, acting
against his advice, had gone to Lunen-
burg to farm without the necessary iuhas
to start out In the work.
Mr. Frank added that the statements
made by Mr.. Alter as TO the number OF
settlers his firm had established In Lu-
nenburg were incorrect. He had carried
seven families to Double Bridge ana
seventeen families 10 Wattsboro. In bOth
colonies there were about eighty families
who had taken deposits on land amount
ing TO about $500 acres.
