IN THE SYNDICATE
Worcester Brewing
Company is Re-
Organized.
CAPITAL is $5OO,O00.
Concern is now a Corpora
ton Under Laws of
West Virginia.

The brewing syndicate has secured
the Worcester brewing corporation, and
gained a foothold in Worcester. The
Worcester brewing corporation, in dis
tinction from the Worcester Brewing
Company, has formally been incorpor-
ated under the laws of West Virginia,
with a capital stock of 100000, and the
company has organized with Joseph
Warren Of Boston, as president and
Carlton e. Snow as secretary. They
were here yesterday and filed an APP
plication for a license and viewed the
brewery property.
The articles of incorporation were
filed through a Boston firm. AS Judge
Hopkins in the superior court yesterday
ordered the decree accepting the report
of the court commissioner, Albert ii.
Waite upon the sale of the property
affirmed, the sale which was made TO
r. F. Taylor for 100000, stands, and as
the last hitch to the possession OF the
property by the new company Is re-
moved, the Worcester brewing corpora
ton, as it is legally called, will take
possession at once, and put beer on the
market as soon as it Is possible
1t is stated by Leander Il. Herrick, the
receiver that no Worcester man is on
the list OF incorporators a s shown by the
articles filed in West Virginia, but it
is believed that Worcester capital is in
terested in the deal
M j. Finnigan Is closely associated
with the Springfield breweries' syndi-
cate, recently formed, and for this rea-
son it has been thought that this COM
bination had secured the Worcester
plant However, to offset this Seymour
Scott representing the American Malt
tn, or ORR bga in
Boston several weeks, in conference
with prominent business men in that
city, and he and President Warren, OF
the Worcester Brewing corporation,
have been in consultation. The Ameri-
can Mating company has long sought
out Worcester as a field for securing a
good foothold, and conferences between
its representatives and local men have
led to the opinion that the Worcester
Brewing corporation will be but a
branch of the American Mailing COM
pany. New York men are among the
incorporators Of the new concern.
The formal revelation of develop
ments to this end came yesterday after
noon when Joseph Warren, president,
and Carlton e. Snow, secretary, of the
Worcester Brewing corporation, with
Leander f. Herrick and II. f. Taylor
of this city, called at the Office of the
license commissioners and left a copy
or nOJCe OF a special meeting OF inc
directors of the company, in room 615,
Exchange building, at SO State street,
Boston, yesterday, when Joseph War
rem was elected president and Carlton
r. Snow secretary, together with a
copy of the following resolve drawn up
at this meeting as follows:
Resolved. that this corporation do
make application to the license com
missioners Of the city of Worcester for

hereby authorized to sign such applica-
ton in the name Of the corporation"
