Difficulties.
N. 0. 7. Property Will
Not be Sold.
Sales Of Other Stock at High
Price Assures This.

The sale of 10000 shares of Toledo
Electric Railway & Light stock at
$3.50 per share, by Henry Everett
and Z. w. Moore to the New York
banking house of Keane, Van Court
land & Co., has practically freed the
EverettMoo syndicate from debt.
The members of the syndicate still
retain about 10000 shares.
Accompanying this sale comes the
important and for the first time Of
fetal announcement that the Everett.
Moore syndicate is now practically
cleared of all personal obligations and
is again squarcly upon its feet.
The Toledo deal gives the Everett
Moore interests the splendid equity of
50 per share, or in the aggregate $780,
600. By the terms of the deal 10000
shares are to be delivered ON or be-
fore July Is and the other 10000
shares on or before Aug. l.
The settling of the affairs of the
syndicate without selling the n. o.
T, property makes it certainty that
those roads will remain in their pres.
ent ownership.

Bound Over to
Probate Court.
Demented Youth Under
Arrest Again.
Has Made Police Trouble For
More Than a Year.

James Hamburg, demented Jewish
youth, who has been in and out of the
hands Of the police many times dur
ing the past year on the charge of va
grancy, was In Police court Thursday
morning and this time he will not
be allowed to get off easily. Local
officials have made various efforts to
no something for the boy.
He was placed at work with Officer
Taylor. but he ran away. Uncle
Joe Kendall paid his way to New York
but he returned in remarkably short
time. He is without relatives or
friends and will not work. 1t is also
thought that what little wit the youth
was possessed of has departed, and he
was bound over to Probate court, af-
ter an examination. and an effort will
be made to place him In an asylum.

WAS WILLING
TO SUFFER DEATH
Vaughn Would Not Go to an
ASYLUM, However.

Ravenna, o., June 12.-The trend Of
all testimony in the Vaughn murder
trial Wednesday was to show the IN
sanity of the prisoner. Among the
other witesses who testified were DR..
II. c. Eyman,of the Masslllon State
hospital, and DR.. Henry S. Upson, of
Cleveland. Both these experts testi-
fed that Vaughn had paranoia, or
partial insanity.
The prisoner told Dr. Upson that he
would not go to any insane asylum and
insisted he didn't care anything about
being electrocuted. The defense has
rested and the prosecution will have
evidence in rebuttal today. Arguments
will probably be reached this after
noon.

Grover Hnshman, poultry raiser
of Tiffin, Ohio, claims to have made
a discovery which may revolutionize
the present inconvenient method of
shipping eggs. He has invented an
egg she'll which is elastic and unbrenk-
able. He has done away with lime
as diet for hens, and instead feeds
them on pulverized rubber mixed with
corn-meal. This forms a rubber film
around ench egg, and the sulphur con
tanned in the egg vulvanlzes the soft
rubber into hardness Exchange.
