TN HANDS OF RECEIVER.

Bethel Electric Light and Power Co IN
Trouble.
Bethel, Aug 3.-The management of the
Bethel Electric Light and Power Go. has
been put into the hands Of a receiver, L.
NJ. Heath, who has for several years acted
as manager OF the company, has been ap.
pointed receiver. The immediate neees-
sity for this step is the recent destruction
Of valuable machinery which must be at
once replaced and the lack Of funds to
meet the expense as the company's treas
ury has been oYertaxed with the expense
Of continual repairs, claims and lawsuits
The company is doing large business,
furnishing lights for both Bethel and Ran
dolph and the necessity for a receiver may
not be Of long duration.
