MOORE BROS FAILURE.

Report On 1t Made to the Chicago Stock
Exchange.
CHICAGO. Aug. 2S.-The committee
appointed by the Stock Exchange to
make an investigation into the failure
of w. H.. and J. H. Moore made its re-
port during the afternoon. The most
important fact disclosed by the report is
that $7S5 900 of Diamond Match funds
was used as margins in the speculative
purchase Of the Diamond Match stock.
These purchases were not sanctioned by
the directors of the company, but We're
alleged by the Moores to have been
made Oh the authority of the executive
committee.
The revelation of the unauthorized
use of company funds has raised the
question of the criminal liability of the
MoOres. AS a result the Moores, in all
probability, will be dropped from the
directories of the two companies. Just
how soon this will be done will depend
On the acceptance Of positions OF the
board by p. D. Armour and g.. NJ. Pull
1t is understood they stand ready
to accept such positions.

"IIookies" Fair.

The Rescue Hook and Ladder Co. l, of
Shenandoah, is making arrangements to hold
a fair on October 18th, in Robbins opera
house. The "Hookies' never do things by
halves, and it is hardly necessary to say that
the coming fair will exceed anything of the
kind yet held in the town. Many new and
attractive features will be introduced. The
members of the company deserve all the
support and encouragement that our people
can give them. Their enterprise in cquipping
the company with new chemical engine
the first one to be introduced in this region
fully attest their desire to be in position &c
fight the fire fend. All this is for the benefit
of our citizens, and the latter can in no
better way show their appreciation Of the
firemen's efforts than by assisting to make
the fair q success The proceeds are to be
devoted to paying of the indebtness of their
new acquisition.
