meyer DIDN'T QUALIFY.
lie Was Selected a Trustee For
Hartford Poor Fund.
Another Man viii Be Chosen to Take His
Piace-CounCilmen Refuse to
Discuss Case.

A rumor was current previous to the
meeting of the city council Monday
night that trustee would be appointed
for the Hartford poor fund. Three
trustees We're elected by the council
some time ago to administer over the
fund Two of these qualified, but the
third did not, and therefore the office
is still open for the election of third
trustee.
The name of Joseph Schott, of 52l
Lawrence avenue, was connected with
the report. 1t was said that he would
be confirmed and act instead of C. T.
Meyer, who failed to qualify. Several
members of the council were question
ed concerning the story, but they would
not make any statement. 1t was learn
ed Tuesday from reliable source, that
Schott, was to be elected Monday night
but action was interferred with for
some reason.
The act of the legislature establishing
this fund, requires that the council hold
an election the first Monday in Febru-
ary to fill the vacancies caused by the
expiration of terms of such trustees.
The city solicitor stated Tuesday that
the council would be free to proceed to
the election of third trustee, regardless
of the case in court, as it would not in
terfere with the court proceedings, as
all papers and books are now tied up
in the litigation.

Independent Telephone Com.
pany Wants to Begin Work.
Resolution Introduced at City Council
Granting Desired Permission-Read
and Referred to Committee.

An amendment to the franchise of the
independent telephone company was in
troduced at the meeting of the city
council Monday night through which
the company would be enabled to be-
gin work at once on laying underground
conduits.
The franchise, as originally granted
contained a clause to the effect that the
company shall not be permitted to tear
up the city paved streets during the
period of time between December and
March. A representative of the COM
pany stated that the company is de-
sirous of availing itself of the mild
weather and laying the conduits.
The amendment to the franchise was
read by Mr.. Bernower. After its first
reading it was referred to the COM
mite on ordinances.

Rabbi Phiio VIII Remain.

Akron. Jan. 23.-Rabbi Isadore Philo
will probably not leave the city. His
congregation held another meeting and
the bylaws were changed so as to ad-
nit the ladies as members of the con-
gregation.
The debt of the temple was also re-
moved and the congregation has made
strong appeal to Rabbi Philo to re-
main here. In speaking with reporter
Rabbi Philo said that he could not
say what he is to do in the future. When
asked If he is to remain in Akron he
said:
IT cannot answer the question now"
The leading members of his congrega-
ton, however, say that he is not to
leave.

resident of Mogadore, committed suicide
Monday by shooting himself in the head.
A year ago Mr.. Swinehart suffered a
severe attack of typhoid fever, and
since that time has been shattered in
both health and mind. Dependency
from this cause undoubtedly led him
to the deed. Death was not instan-
taneous. although the bullet entered
the brain just above the right ear but
the physicians says he cannot possibly
survive.
Mr.. Swinehart is 35 years of age and
lived with his father, Reuben Swine

Edwin Davis, a member of the COM
pany, said Thursday morning that it is
the intention of the new company to
branch out and manufacture several
additional lines of goods The rubber
company is not a new concern in Can
ton, but heretofore it has been an as
sociate company. The partners believed
it would facilitate their business If they
were organized into a stock company.
The concern will have considerable
more machinery in the near future and
will employ more men.
1t IS not generally known that Can
ton was to have had another company
making rubber goods. Mount Hasler,
before his death, bought the old Union
brewery plant and it was his intention
to turn il into an industry of that char
acter. His untimely end cut the pro-
ject short in it's infancy.
