The Auburn Trust Company was or
ganized June 5, 1890, with capital of
s131, 900. In 1894. owing to losses upon
certain investments, principally a
block of street railroad bonds, its cap
ital was reduced twenty per cent or to
$104, 500. For several years the bank
has been embarrassed by the amount
of it's loans to a single corporation con-
trolled and operated by an individual

was also president of the trust COM

as well as the bank examiner, objected

TRADE CONDITIONS.
Strike Has Depressing Effect, but Thought to Be only Temporary.

Strike Has Depressing EHecf, bur
 Thought to Be only Temporary.
 NEW YORK, May 31.-R. G. Dun S Co.'s weekly review of trade says
 Ease in the money market, favorable frop prospects and confidence abroad are the encouraging factors which out weigh the disturbing elements of labor conflicts and unreasonable weather for retail trade at many points. Effects of the depressing influences are less keen ly felt because they are believed to be only temporary, and confidence is ex- pressed that with the resumption of work and normal temperature there will be a return to the liberal distribu- tion of merchandise. Uncertainty as to the coal strike may end Monday, when the first crisis in the contest will be reached. Despite the short corn crop last year the large yield of wheat and high prices for both resulted i'll the greatest value for the two crops ever recorded, which means that the agricultural sec tions are prosperous, and other indus tries must share the good fortune by increased sales. of products.
 Efforts to place contracts for 100000 tons of pig iron deliverable in the sec ond quarter of 1903 indicate the conf dence of the leading consumers as to the future of this industry. There is no cessation of activity at the mills, and finished products are forwarded to inn portunate consumers as rapidly as pos sible.
 No improvement is reported at New England boot and shoe centers, where the shops are still running only about half time. There is a little more activ ity in the grades that declined last week, but no indication of recovery in prices, and other varieties tend down ward.
 Liabilities of commercial failures for May thus far amounted to $6573, ,S97 against $6,396 III last year and $21,- I35, ,666 two years ago. Of this years liabilities $3,35S,347 was in manufac- turing and $3, 14e,O93 in trading lines.
 Failures for the week numbered 194 in the United States against 14S last year and 20 in Canada against 27 year ago.

Cook, the Former Yale Pitcher, Was
 Too Much for City Lads.
 At least one thousand people were down at the Athletic field yesterday afternoon to see the game between
 Manager Brennan's Consolidated team and Manager Lallier,s All Amateur team for $25 a side. Bach team had it's friends and they cheered and rooted as the game progressed. To many it was a surprise that the contest should have ended so one-sided, but the Consolidated team had a battery that was a star and had this same battery been on the other side of the fence the game might have ended diff ferently. Cook and Hayden were in the points for the Consolidated team and through their work as much as anything was the victory won. Cook not only pitched a remarkably good game, but he was power at the bat and homer and a three bagger were credited to him. Had this batter been with the All Amateur team the Con- solidated team would have hard fight to win out. This is not detracting from the playing of the men behind the Consolidated battery for they cer-F tainly did pound the ball and field in excellent style. Johnny Kelly, was pitching for the All Amateur team and he received such wretched support in the early stages of the game that it was enough to dishearten the best pitcher. At that he twirled a good game and had he been given the back ing up that was given Cook the game would not have been. So one-sided. Errors by the All Amateur team helped to lose the game, not all the hitting. by the Consolidated team. The score. and summary:

After thirty-two minutes of Graeco- Roman wrestling Professor Atlas of Bridgeport defeated Professor NJ. J. Dwyer of Waterbury at Pleasure Beach yesterday afternoon in the pres ence of about 150 spectators.
 Owing to some misunderstanding between the wrestlers and D. c. Bi- beau, manager of the beach, it was at first decided to postpone the match AS the crowd was leaving the beach, however, MT Bibeau and the wrestlers came to an agreement, the latter to wrestle for the purse put up and per centage' of the receipts. The receipts, however, were not sufficient to cover the expenses incurred in the arrange ment of the bout. Probably about 100 were in attendance.
 Time was called about 4:35 The first bout was of fourteen minutes duration in which Atlas showed fine style, as did Dwyer who escaped clev- erly from Il number of half-Nelsons. Dwyer won this bout. The second was won by Atlas in six minutes and the third by Atlas in twelve minutes.
 At the conclusion of the bout Pro- lessor Dwyer declared the decision of the referee to be hardly fair, from the fact that he was off the mat when Atlas was awarded the bout He then announced that he would wrestle Atlas Graeco-Roman or mixed style catch as catch can for $25O and Atlas accepted. The date for the meeting will be arranged later.
