RECEIVER NAMED
 FOR WIRE MILLS
NATIONAL CORPORATION OF NEW HATEA SAID TO ONE
 $e,OO0,OOn

Maine Company the Petitioner-PIant
 One of the Largest of Its Kind and
 Was Organized Thirty-six Years Ago
 Employed 1,0OO Hands When Rum
 ming to Full Capacity-What Recent
 Balance Sheet Shows Regarding Con-
 dition.
 On the allegation that it is in debt more than $2,OOO,OOO the National Wire corporation, of this city, was placed in the hands of receivers yesterday. The receivership was instituted at the re- quest of the National Steel and Wire company, of Portland, Me, which is the holding company of the local con cern and other similar plants in Maine and Columbus, o.
 In asking for a receiver the Maine company, aside from alleging that the local concern is more than $2,000,000 in debt, asks that if the corporation cam not raise new capital to carry on the business it be dissolved and it's affairs wound up.
 The plant of the National Wire cor poration is one of the largest of it's kind, and it's organization dates back to 1870. When the plant is running full 1t employs 1,5O0 hands, but recently not more than 800 have been working there. The balance sheet of the com pany November 26 showed it to be sol vent and also details the capital stock and other liabilities. The total assets are given as 9,625,379 and the surplus is given as $94, ,445. The following are some of the items in the liabilities col umn:
 Preferred stock, $S,68S, 700; common stock, $3,S75,S16; special loans of direc- tors, $1372125; accounts. payable to controlled companies, $305,6S9; bills payable, $2S6,76S; reserve for unpaid dividends, $56,S34.
 In all the Allegations started yester- day the New Haven corporation accept ed the action of the Maine company without protest and allowed the motion for receivers to be made without argu- ment. The hearing on the matter will be held week from Friday in the su- perior court As Judge Thayer will have ended his stay in this court at that time 1t is probable that he will be on hand by special arrangement to hear this case. Otherwise Judge Shumway will be on the bench
 Yesterdays action follows an attach ment for $15,oOO against the corpora tion of this city and the company of Maine made in New York on Tuesday The basis of this attachment was the non- payment by the New Haven corr poration of $15OOO note payable to the Maine company, which had been trans ferred to the Mechanics National bank of New York.
 The receivers appointed were Henry l.. Hotchkiss, of this city, and Vice President Wise, of the parent corpora Gion.

For Men and Boys at the Big
 Store.
 When you are invited to visit New Haven's largest, lightest and handsom- est clothing store it is not necessary to tell you where it is located, or, for that matter, to eXpatiate on the rich and fashionable clothing which has made the establishment famous throughout the good old state of Connecticut. But the very many sensible and appropri- ate Christmas gifts to be found there this holiday season should be called to the attention of everybody. Now, those who are racking their brains, at this time, to present to their loved ones a token of their esteem and affection can at once become calm and happy when they hear and heed the following ad- vice.
 Don't give the boy or young man anything that is trashy" He will, of course, be thankful for any indication of your remembrance. But if you go direct to F. D. Meigs & Co.'S store and select from their splendid stock of clothing and mems and boys furnish ings you will be certain to please and delight the recipients of your favors. The big store will be open each evening this week.

GAME BIRDS FOR KANSAS.

Two Carloads of English Pheasants to Be Distributed Throughout the State.
 Two express cars carrying about 1900 English pheasants passed through Kansas City yesterday after noon on the way to Pratt, Kan. The birds were imported direct from Eng land and consigned to the game ward en of Kansas, Dell Travis. They are to be distributed in the various coun- ties with view of stocking the State with the game.
 The game warden made contract with K. c. Beck of Nickerson, Kan, an importer of birds, for 1000 pairs of pheasants, but about 100 of them died on the way to this country.
 Tt required eight express cars of the English style to carry the birds from London to Liverpool" said the man in charge of the pheasants. You see there is plenty of room in these two American cars.
 "A few of the birds died on the train from New York, but most of the 100 died on the boat They try to fly in the wooden crates, striking their heads against the slats until stunned. Since leaving New York Monday the birds have eaten 40 pounds of cabbage and more than 800 pounds of grain feed"
 This is the second shipment of pheasants to Kansas. About nine months ago 75O of the birds were im- ported from England and turned loose in the State. The money used in pur- chasing the pheasants is taken from funds derived from the issuing of li- censes to hunters.
 The English pheasant is a hybrid be- tween the ring necked pheasant and the pheasant of southern Europe. The plumage of these birds is brilliant that of the males being especially gorgeous They reproduce rapidly, and in their habits of life are similar to the com mon barnyard fowl. The history of the pheasant extends back to the days of ancient Rome and in all times the bird has been popular with sportsmen. There are sixty species of pheasants known, none of which Is native to America. The turkey is their closest relative in this country.-Kansas City Star.

Prof Lucke of Columbia Comnletes
 Initial Investigation With Alcohol
 New York, Dec 19.-Prof. c. E. Lucke of Columbia has completed the first of series of experiments for the United States government regarding the advantages of alcohol as a fuel The exact results of his exDeriments will not be made public until the bulle- tin that is to be published by the gov- ernment in a few weeks has been is- sued.
 Prof. Lucke said, however, that in a general way the experiments had shown that, as fuel both alcohol and gasoline had their peculiar advant- ages. The experiments had been made with large number of different tyres of engines, and the exact amount of work done by each engine with each kind of fuel has been measured. Ac- curate account was taken of the amounts of different fuels necessary to produce certain results, and from this the relative efficiency both of the en- zines and the fuels used could be judged.
 Of the question of economy, Prof. Lucke said it would be impossible to judge before he knew at which price denaturized alcohol would sell. He be- lieves, however, that for certain pur- poses, alcohol, even though it's cost may be slightly greater, will be more desirable than gasoline.
