MUST PRODUCE
THE BOOKS.
Joseph Bancroft Sons Com.
pany Must Produce
Their Books.

IN the United States Court yes
terday afternoon Judge Bradford
handed down a decision in the case
of Bloede VS. the Joseph Bancroft g.
Sons Company.
Application was made by the
plaintiff for an order to compel the
defendant to produce it's books for
the inspection Of the plaintiff and
its attorneys. The defendant, it
appears, had entered into an agree
ment with the defendant to use GER
tain pulp colors manufactured by
it, or in case the defendant used
colors manufactured by itself of any
one other than the plaintiff, was to
pay royalty to the plaintiff. 1t is
alleged the defendant failed to pay
the roy atty agreed upon, and dam
ages to the extent OF $50. 900 are
asked. The defendant claimed the
court had no power to order that
books or writings be produced be-
fore trial in an action at law.
After reviewing all the decisions
which could be found on the point,
Judge Bradford ruled that the de-
PENDANT must produce in court, on
or before March S, 1900, all books
and writings showing what pulp
colors and other colors and meteri-
ais were manufactured by the
plaintiff for and delivered to the de-
PENDANT between June l, 1893, and
January I, 1895; what pulp and
other colors and materials were
manufactured by the defendant be-
tween June /, 1893, and June 9,
1897, similar or substantially SINH
lar to the pulp colors or other colors
or materials furnished by Victor
G. Bloede to the defendant on or
prior to June 9, 1891; what pulp
colors and materials were manu-
featured for the defendant other
wise than by the plaintiff between
June l, 1898, and June 9, 1897, SINH
lar or substantially similar to the
pulp colors or other colors of ma
terials furnished by Bloede to the
defendant, as above mentioned, and
what pulp colors and other colors
and materials were used by the
defendant between June l, 1893 and
June 9, 1897, similar or substanti-
ally similar to the pulp colors or
other colors or materials furnished
by Bloede to the defendant, as
above mentioned.

AS the old time speculator says
the stock market got another black
eye Saturday. although the bank
statement was fairly good one.
Sugar lost IS per cent. for the week
while every other trust stock SUI
fered shrinkage in price of from
10 to 6 per cent, which meant sew
eral millions of dollars in values.
With prosperity on every hand and
all the mills and workshops running
night and day. values in the stock
market have been on the down rack
for several months. Now is the
time men with money in hand look
after bargains and put their secur-
tiles away until the people come to
their sober senses and find that the
country is not going to the dogs as
some men predict.

I suffered greatly from pain across my

WHY should not Wilmington carry
its mail matter back and forth from
the depot and post office in an auto
mobile! After the first cost it
would be cheaper than keeping four
so-called horses and two rattle
traps Of mail wagons. The adop-
ton of the automobiles to carry
mail matters, seems to be gaining
favor with the authorities in Brook
Ign. 1t is estimated that with its
use a saving OF 25 per cent. in the
cost of handling the local mails
could be made. If this is so in
Brooklyn, why not in Wilmington,
~ hich has the most wretchcd SER
vice of any city IN the United States.
