fairs of the Bradford Savings Bank and
Trust company Monday when a minority
of the stockholders, through their attorn-
eys, f. W. Smith Paul Lang and }. b.

condition of the bank. President Hale

LIVE STOCK MARKET.

Sheep and lambs-By the average
trade of the week it was shown that
there was an uncertainty to the market
which was severely felt in some quarters.
For instance the sheep and lambs trade
started out with the prospect of having
a light supply with just enough demand
to carry off The consignments, with the
prices of last week holding over firmly.
These expectations proved incorrect.
The arrivals came in heavily until there
was an immense supply Of the sheep and
lambs stock on the market. This
brought down the prices with a jump.
and they fell fully one-fourth under
what they brought last week.
L Northern and eastern beef cattle
There was about the usual supply, with
a fair demand, and prices holding over
from last week. The sales We're small
and mostly in small lots.
Western beef cattle-The entire con-
alignment went to the export trade and
home slaughterers were not included
in the list
Veal calves-CalVes were another stock
which held the steady prices of a week
ago, and the sales We're steady through
out the week. The supply was slightly
decreased, but the demand was not
heavy.

Northhtld Telephone Company Sells Its
Amherst Business for S35OO

+. 5 Bardwell, treasurer of the North
field Telephone company, notified the Am
herst company Monday that they had sold
the Amherst exchange to the New England
Telephone company for $500. The New
England company will operate the new eX-
change for time, but the plan is to event
ually emerge the business of the two eX-
changes into one. The main point of in
terest for Amherst people is what change
will be made in the rates, and how soon.
The new Amherst company had secured s.
subscribers to stock, the amount pledged
being nearly 5000. This is assurance
that a company can be formed to equip and
operate an exchange with local capital, and
this will be done If necessary to secure
favorable rates The Mortified company
which operates small plant in the town
OF that name, was induced to come TO Am
herst two years ago TO establish separate
exchange there, as the people were dissat-
isfied with the prices charged by the New
England company. The Mortified COM
pany made low rates, which were met by a
special reduction in Amherst by the New
England company. Negotiations have
been under way some time for the ABSORB
tion of the little concern by the New Eng
land company
