Boston, Mass, December 9.-The John P. Lowell Arms company, and tine John F. Lowell company, allied firm, manufactur- CTS of shooting goods of all kinds, made an assignment today for the benefit of creditors The firms were heavily indebted to the Globe National bank, which was last week placed in charge of a tempor- ary receiver, and this institution, or rather Its former president, has been represented in the business by c. w. Norcross who is said to have virtually managed the con- cern for more than year past, in the in terest of the bank.

Norcross has remained dn charge up to the present would seem to cast doubt upon this story.

BRYAN'S SPEAKING TOUR
The Democratic Leader Will Make Sev-
 eral Speeches in the East

Austin, Tex, December 26.-Today W. J. Bryans attention was called to a dispatch from Washington stating that he had writ ten Congressman Daly of New Jersey, that he would make several speeches in the east, discussing trusts and imperialism, and he was asked whether the report indi- cated an intention of abandoning the sil- yer question:. He replied:
 ''Congressman Daly has probably been misquoted. I expect to make several speeches in the east, but expect to discuss the money question along with other ques- tions. There are three questions now prominently before the people, to-wit: The money question, the trust question and the Philippine question. Wherever I make a political speech I discuss all these ques- tions."
 MT. Bryan leaves here Saturday for his trip to Lincoln, Omaha, Kansas City and Chicago and thence to the east. He will be gone about one month.
