PORTLAND & ROCH-
ESTER ROAD SOLD
B. & M. Purchases This Leased
Line-NoW a Part of WorCeS-
ter, Nashua & Portland

On Jan. 1, 1900, the Boston and Maine
railroad will absorb into it's system the
Portland and Rochester railroad, MAX
ing it part of the Worcester, Nashua
and Portland division, The road has
some time been controlled by the Bos-
ton and Maine, which owns 1921 of the
1920 shares, but has been operated as
an independent corporation. When 1t
passes into the Boston and Maine sys-
tenn it will operated from Nashua by
Division Superintendent G. E. Lee, in
stead of from Portland. 1t Is not known
what position H. w. Davis, the present
superintendent and general ticket
agent of the p. & R., will assume. The
road was acquired by purchase, COM
mon stock of the Boston and Maine
being issued for the capital stock of
the P. & r. All the employees of the
absorbed road will be employed by the
Boston and Maine.
The Portland and Rochester was or
ganized in 1881 from the old York and
Cumberland, better known among rail-
road men as the York and Yank EN-,
a nickname derived from its poor
equipment and uneven roadbed AS
originally built, it ran from Gorham,
Me-. to Portland. The Portland and
Rochester runs from Portland through
Westbrook formerly Sacarappa, Cor
ham and WATERFORD to Rochester fur
nishing a direct route from points on
the Grand Trunk and Maine Central to
Worcester and New York. 1t is 81
miles in lentgh and has 16 stations.
The present officers of the Portland
and Rochester, who will be superseded
by the absorption, are. President, G.
P. Wescott of Portland; directors,
Nathan Webb, William G. Davis,
Charles McCarty, Jr, of Portland,
Lucius futile of Boston, Joseph S.
Kicker of Portland, Franklin A. Wilson

ham, Joseph H. Manley Of Augusta

WITH NATIONAL BANKS
Secretary of Treasury viii De.
post With National Banks

Washington, Dec. 19.-The secretary
Of the treasury today received a num-
Der of applications from national banks
for deposits of public funds The larger
number of these applications come from
New York and other eastern cities.
Cash will be transferred by the treas
ury to national banks on deposit of
U. S. bonds to their par value ex-
cept on Ss, on which 95 per cent will
be allowed and rs, on which 80 per
cent will be allowed.
This is an old rule and is intended to
secure the government from possible
loss by reason of temporary excess Of
cash Oil hand over bonds on deposit 1t
is stated that in making allotments of
funds. the department will discourage
the purchase of bonds on the part Of
banks seeking deposits, for sthe reason
that If the banks should go into the
market for this purpose it probably
would put up the price, which would
be against the interests of the govern
ment, which is itself in the market for
the purchase of about $4,000, 900 now re-
naming unoffered under the secretary's

BROKERS ASSIGN
0iIlaWay & Starr; Mining Stocks,
Go Under

Dillaway & Starr, bankers and bro
kers at 4S State street, Boston, made
an assignment this morning for the
benefit of their creditors, as a result of
the collapse of the shares of the United
States Mining Company.
The firm, which consists of c. f. w.
Dillaway, George H. Flint and Albert
W. Lawrence, was one of the younger
and most progressive firms in the
street, and has always enjoyed the rep
utation of managing its affairs with
exemplary prudence. 1t had traded
chiefly in the leading mining securi-
ties and was said to be the second lar
gest handler Of Dominion Coal securi-
ties in the city of Boston. AS an eX-
ample of the enterprise of the firm and
of one of the methods which brought
1t into great popularity, it was it's GUS
tom to publish every month a chart
| showing the fluctuations in the total
| shares traded in, by days and months,
of the leading mining stocks in Bos-
ton, and also the movements of the
copper metal in London and New
York
The firm held very large block of
United States Mining stock, which it
had safely margined, as it supposed,
and which it had secured upon the in
formation said to have been given it
that there was $1,00O,00O in cash in the
treasury of the United States Mining
Company.
1t is said in the street that had the
| firm made an assignment a few days
| ago, or at least made known it's inten-
ton to do so, its failure, coming at that
time. would have forced other brokers
into the same course. The delay has,
| however. given time in which other of
the brokerage houses have been able
| to protect themselves.
| The fact that the financial troubles
OF all the brokerage firms and banks
came to climax just before Sunday,
was one of the most fortunate of oc-
currences, as it enabled protective
measures to be taken during the legal
holiday which might have been impos-
sible had it not interviewed.
The firm did no trading YESTERDAY
morning, but the first public announce
ment of it's failure was made about
| 1890 when there was pasted on the
door of its Office the simple statement.
| I'VE have assigned
| The assignment was made to r.
| Clarence Hovey, who has been in Bos-
ton looking after their interests since
early in November. The New York
correspondents of the firm were 70. L.
| Oppenheim & Co. 1t is said that the
firm has of late been carrying a very
| small New York account
| The firm is said to have been one of
| the largest holders of United States
Mining for Clark & Coolidge; the num-
Der of shares is estimated to have been
about 10000.

WORKED A SLICK GAME
TWO Girls Clean Out a Dentists
Office HandiN

DIR. Eugene Sullivan, whose office is
in the Burnside building, reported tc
the police Monday the loss of an UNI
brella which was stolen from his office
by a young woman who said her name
was Ella Wilson and her home on Ed
ward street. She was accompanied by
another girl, and the game they work
ed is considered a slick one by the po-
lice. One of the girls took the chair
and told the dentist she wished to
have her teeth examined. While DR..
Sullivan was busy looking over her
teeth, the other girl made an examina-
ton of the things in the office, and
confiscated everything that she could
carry away handily without the aid
of a truck wagon. DR.. Sullivan says
that he is not the only one who has
been made victim. No one by the
name of Ella Wilson can be found on
Edward street.

BELIEVER IN THE ORANGE
By Gentleman Whose Experience
 has Been Satisfactory.

MT. T. N. Lee who has been associ- ated for the past year with MT. Victor Nellany in orange growing on Col. Cotton's ranch northeast of the city, is another believer in the future of the valley as an orange growing region. He said yesterday he believed there was no other industry which would yield so good a return from the capital invested as orange growing. MT. Lees experience of the present season has been quite satisfactory. He has re- ceived $1,200 from grove of altogether not more than ten acres. This is the first crop from the grove big enough to be handled in commercial quantities.
 Regarding the details of the business. MT. Lee said he was hardly qualified to speak. He had made a careful study of orange growing in California a year ago. The conditions in the Salt River valley he is sure are more favor able. To begin with, the ability to put the crop into an empty and waiting market, is a great advantage. The superior quality of the fruit in size, flavor and color, commanding an ad- NSiICt III pIlCe ONSI ally OlIl6I lIllll W It'll which it may be brought in cOmpeti- tion, is alluring to growers. Lastly, the comparative immunity of the groves of the valley from frosts, which have practically ruined the business of Florida and threatened it in California, is to be considered.
 Even these excellent conditions MT Lee believes might be improved by or ganization by the formation of an as sociation- The price of the crop, al ready higher than the fruit of any other region, might have been sold for twenty-five cents more a box this sea- among growers, involving the sale of the oranges through an experienced agent. In this way the oranges would have been better advertised and would have been given distinction similar to that formerly enjoyed by the famous Indian River orange of Florida, be- Iieved to be the best in the world, but at its best, never so large, sweet, beau- tifully colored and delicately favored as the choice products of the groves of the Salt River valley. MT. Lee believes that the importance of the orange growing business will be more fully recognized next season than it is now and still more the following season un- til the valley will be known as the field of the finest oranges in the world.
