The Hotel VandertOrd Mess.

All Salisbury is doubtless IA
miliar with the mix-up at the
Hotel Vanderford, which resulted
in the arresto of Mr.. and Mrs. F. b.
Pinkham on a charge of having
obtained goods under false pre-
lenses, and the subsequent tenn
porary closing of the hotel. The
parties who swore out the war
rants seemed disposed to be will
ing to agree to almost anything
reasonable which would result in
a settlement of the lndebtness,
and the criminal phase of the mat
ter may be abandoned. The hotel
now is in charge of 0. W. Spencer,
the we'll known and general man
ager of the Central Hotel. Just
how the whole matter will be final
ly adjusted is d matter Of specula-
ton, though 1t is thought a salts
factory settlement of the matter
will be reached.
Since the above was put i'll
type it is learned that Esq. D
M. Mile, before whom the case
was tried, has bound Mrs. Pink
ham over to the Superior court In
the sum of $50, though she will
be allowed to 60 upon her own re-
cognizance to appear at the Au-
gust term of court. Mr.. Miller
had a knotty point to declde-as
to the element of fraud in the
transactions of the Pinkhams-
and the delay was owing to his
desire to do full justice to all par
ties concerned.
