NOW BANKRUPT
THE FARMERS MANUFACTURING
COMPANY FORMERLY OF
CANTON.
Moved From Canton to sebrine Sew
eraI Years Ago and Now In
Sheriff's Hands.

Sebring, O., Oct. 25.-The Farmers
Manufacturing Co., formerly Of Can
ton, is again in trouble. The works
are now in the hands Of the sheriff,
and on Tuesday they were appraised
and will be sold at sheriff's sale. The
McKeesport Title u Trust Co. holds
n first mortgage on the plant for
$4,000. This company began fore
closure proceedings some months ago
and the court ordered the plant ap.
praised and sold.
The plant was appraised on Tues
dty at s6,778. IL may sell for two.
thirds of the amount. Aside from the
claim of the McKeesport company 1t
is understood that the Citizens Bank
of Sebring is creditor to the extent
of over $1,000. There are other cred.
itors for smaller amounts. The entire
Indebtedness is placed at $4,000.
The Farmers Manufacturing COM
pany went to Sebring from Canton
about five years ago. They did q
prosperous business in Canton and
moved to Sebriug because they needed
more room. Their specially was feed
cutters. They received a handsome
bonus to remove their works. After
going to Sebring for a time they did
large business. Just why they failed
will never be known. Some misman
agement on the part of officials is said
to be the cause.
II is understood that there are buy
ers for the plant including machinery
and that the works will not long re
main idle

NEVER MET cox
KENNEDY HAS NOT HAD THAT
HONOR IF 1T BE AN HONOR
The Congressman Talks Of Taft's Ak
ron Speech-is Surprised at
What Was Said.

Congressman James Kennedy is
guest at the Courtland Hotel. His mis-
sion to this city is unexplained, but
upon being approached he was quite
willing to talk over the political situa-
tion in this state.
II am surprised that Secretary Taft,
in his speech at Akron, said that he
would not support Boss Cox" he said.
Il did not hear the speech myself, but
nevertheless l was surprised to read
such declaration made by Taft. 1 am
a warm admirer of the man and agree
heartily with many of mis- views. How
ever, know nothing of the local stu
alton in Cincinnati, so for that reason
| do not feel like criticising him.
II did not see why the people should
criticise Herrick on account of the
support he is receiving. Mckinley
Foraker and Nash all received the same
support"
When asked concerning Cox, Ken
nedy hesitated before replying. Il
never had the honor of meeting Mr..
Cox, If 1t be an honor" Then, as If to
NlhulOdlS SoA, ne NOutlhuNus NOA NNi
tainly dictates who is to be nominated
on the Republican ticket in his city
and the men sent to congress from Gin
cinnati are sent by virtue of the Cox
support. However, they have always
been good men, and / am satisfied that
they do what is right"
Comparing the cities of Cleveland
and Cincinnati as to home government,
Mr.. Kennedy said: 1T is joke to
compare the two cities. In Cleveland
man can go many places where his
life is not safe. They rob people there
on the streets in broad daylight Gin
cinnati is much better policed The
of the safety of the people. To COM
pare the two cities, as was done in a
magazine article some time ago, is only
a Joke" From this one would judge
that the congressman really did know
something about the conditions in the
southern metropolis of the state.
Kennedy spoke in the highest terms
of praise when asked about Mick
Longworth, who halls from Cincinnati
and who has come into prominence
only since his attentions to the Presi-
dents daughter have been spoken of
so much in the newspapers.
II will be a candidate at the district
convention when the time comes for
nominating representative. Never
have thought of not being a candidate
for reelection. Mr.. Grant is strong
factor and has the undivided support
of Stark county However, | am will
ing for the people to say whether or
not am to continue to represent them
in congress-"

ERNE WON
Young corbett Too Much Weakened
by Training.

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. 25.-In a weak
sned condition, caused by his efforts
to take off superfluous flesh, Young
Corbett OF Denver was forced TO sue
cumb to Young Erne of Philadelphia in
their six-round bout at the Washing
ton Sporting Club tonight.
Erne, however, won only by the mar
rowest Of margins, and had the fight
gone further 1t is probable that the
former featherweight champion would
have turned defeat into victory.
Corbett's condition told on him in the
fast fighting. AS soon as Erne began
TO play for the stomach the Denverite
was forced to take the defensive. The
Philadelphian's jabs puzzled the Den
verite, and it was not until the last
few rounds that he was able to stall off
the continual jabbing.

Emil Selva did not throw Joe Grant

full if he could even throw bluff.
The style was catch-as-cateh-can and
Joe was clearly the master of the

trolling his legs than a man with loco
motor ataxia. Nothing but the fact that
the foreigner was too heavy prevented
