CHANGE OF NAME.
Considered by New Haven Cooperative

Considered by New Haven Cooperative
 Supply Company.
 A meeting of the stockholders of the New Haven Cooperative Supply Co. was held in Eagle hall last evening for the purpose of taking action upon the question of changing in the name of the corporation. The selection of the new name was referred to the board of managers, which will act according to it's discretion. It was stated, however, that the word cooperative" will in all probability be stricken out. The change is ascribed to business reasons. All the speakers on the subject were unani- mously in favor of change.
 The clause in the bylaws relating to the matter of credit was altered so as to leave the matter of credit at the discretion of She managers This was done to enable the company to handle the business of some large concerns which they supply without conflicting with the clause in the by-laws.
 Philip Bauer, who has held the office of auditor in the corporation, resign ed his position last evening, as he is going to leave soon for California. Chas. Greenbaum was elected to fill his place.
 About hundred stockholders were present at the meeting and much en- thusiasm was displayed. Reports of the company's progress was very ia vorablt.
