A PROGRESSIVE SCHOOL.

s. Zunder of the National Savings bank of New Haven delivered very interesting and instructive lecture yes~ terday to the pupils of G. A. Booths der, than whom few men are better in- formed on the subject, explained in de- tail the system of producing plain, concise and complete yearly statement, such as every bank is by law com- pelled to furnish the state commits sioners.
 Loans on real estate, first mortgage, loans on collateral security, loans to ecclesiastical societies, school district, city government, municipal bonds, railroad bonds and stocks, were dis cussed and explained in detail. The discourse was listened to with the greatest attention by the large num- Der of scholars, and MT. Zunder should feel fattered at the intense interest and attention shown by the pupils, who did not miss word of his discourse. This lecture is a forerunner of regu- lar arrangement that MT. Booth has perfected, and his scholars will listen weekly to lectures delivered by some of our best educators, and brightest business men.
 It should be gratifying to the New Haven public to know that there is at least one place in our city, where a thorough education can be had in any line. MT. Booth is we'll known to the New Haven public, and the record made in his school the past year is an enviable one. Of all the scholars who took the course preparatory for college, nearly everyone passed his examinations without condition. Of the large num- Der of graduates from the business de- partment, not one failed to get posi- ton. He has our entire confidence, and best wishes for still further success.

THE JOHN STEPHENSON co.

Well Known Car Building Corporation
 in the Hands of Receivers.
 New York, Oct. 25.-The John Ste- phenson company, the well known car building corporation of this city, has gone into receivers hands. Justice Cohen of the supreme court to-day granted an application of a majority of the directors of the company in pro- ceedings for a voluntary dissolution of the company and appointed Albert A.. Wilcox and Louis Sternberg. The lia- bilities is placed approximately at s7Oo,- 0oO Attorneys for tn company say the assets will probably equal the liabili- ties.
 The firms failure is said to be due to the enormous outlay of money on the new plant just completed at Bay way, N. J., making it difficult to meet certain liabilities. The plant in New Jersey is a model one and no money was spared in making it such. The companys attorneys say that this en- barrassment is only temporary and they look for a speedy resumption of operations on firm financial basis. In the meantime the business will be continued until further orders from court The Stephenson company s shops in this city are at Forty-seventh street The business was established about twenty-seven years ago by John Stephenson, who continued as owner up to three years ago, when it was made a corporatio. Stephenson died two years ago. There will pfob ably be a reorganization of the com- pany prior to resuming operations.

------E A COALING STATION.

Contract to Build One at New London
 Two Connecticut Firms Were Bid-
 ders.
 Washington Oct. 25.-A contract was awarded by the navy department yes terday upon recommendation of the bureau of yards and docks, for the con- struction of the proposed coaling sta- ton at New London. Hoffman & Go. of Philadelphia were the successful bidders for the work, which will be begun at an early date. The cost will be $130 900.
 The bids were opened on August 31, but owing to dispute among the bidders in regard to the time of sub hitting proposals the decision was delayed until this time. Among the bidders were two Connecticut firms, the Berlin Iron Bridge company and a New Haven concern. A Brooklyn construction company asserted that it's bid had arrived in time to be consider ed, and this necessitated an investi- gation and decision by the judge ad- vocate general. The Brooklyn firm 8 bid was finally thrown out.
 The plans of the Hoffman company, which will construct the coaling sta ton, provde for one of the best equipped plants of the kind in the United States. A building will be constructed having length of 993 feet and a width of 10S feet, and this will provide a storing place for 10000 tons of coal The plans show that the coal will be conveniently deposited in the storage shed from spur track leading from the railroad, and from boats at the adjoining wharf It is proposed to dredge the channel lead ing to the wharf, so that the largest warships can approach the coaling sta-

 Insurance Commissioner Betts lost his satchel containing many valuable papers and other articles in the post office about o'clock Monday evening. He laid 1t on the radiator in the main corridor while reading letter and when he went to look for it he discov- cred that it had been taken. Yesterday morning, however, conductor on the Winchester avenue road returned the missing satchel to the commissioner and explained that he found 1t on his car Monday night. How 1t came to be there the conductor had no idea. Mayor Farnsworth has received com munications from the officials of the Methodist Aid society and from Leila and Hope nurseries, in which they ask for appropria tions from the charities committees of the city government equal in amount to those given to the orphan asylums of New Haven Dur ing the year there have been 8912 chill dren admitted to these nurseries, or an average of twenty-seven each day, and there are 222 individual children that have thus been inmates, and these 222 represent Al families. They supply board for the children of two and some times three meals each day, and when it is needed the children are supplied with necessary clothing. The mothers pay five cents day for the support of each child, and the mothers are thus enabled to work and earn money when they otherwise would have to care for | their children. The managers therefore ask aid from the city government for these institutions.
