Last night marked the expira'
ton of the time limit for paying
poll tax and the records in the
Office of City Secretary Frank
Clarke show 4s3 tax receipts issued
in the city of Bryan.
At the Office of County Tax Col
lector Walter Wipprecht definite

to check up all the void receipts
from clerical errors in each pre-
cict. According TO estimates last
night the number OF poll tax re.
ceipts will probably be slightly in
excess of sixteen hundred. Fol-
lowing IS the estimate by precincts,

may run a little more or a little
less: Millican, 100; Wellborn, 20;

HOADLEY MINE STOCKS
Louis M. Raifel's Story About
 Loans and Mortgages.

Mining stock must certainly be cheap, at least that of some of the mines Charles E. Hoadley was inter- ested in. For loan of $5,000 Hoadley gave Louis M. Raffel fifteen thousand shares of stock in the An nuity Mining company, so Raffel tes- tified yesterday afternoon. He was asked what the stock was worth and he said he did not know, probably about dollar share, but 1t never paid him cent. He did not know how many shares there were in tho company.
 A month ago when the condition of Hoadley's finances was merely specu- lative committee of those interested in the Annuity mine went west and looked over the property, and, 1t was said that for an outlay of $10,000 they got the mine into paying condi- tion. Therefore, unless Raffel is or dered to return this property to the estate of Hoadley he may receive a dividend on the stock.
 Raffel also testified that so far as he has failed to collect any rent from the tenants in the two houses which came into his possession through the same loan of $5,000. One of the ten ants, George E. Tompkins, he said actually refused to pay rent, saying that he had consulted counsel on the matter and he was advised to pay nc rent. The other tenant, whose name was not mentioned, by the way, had paid his rent to MT Hoadley a year ahead.

ROGER AND BROS
Rumors About Removal lo MerL
 den Again Circulated.

Once more the rumor that Roger and Bros factory of this city is to bs removed to Meriden to consolidate Il with the big shop there, is in circus lation, and the past few days has been freely discussed in the Silver ] City. The officials of the International Silver company deny the story and de. clare that 1t is only talk such as has been going on for years. The com. pany has recently been acquiring land in Meriden near Its factory and 1t appears as though preparations are being made to enlarge the fac- tory.
 George H. Wilcox, president of the company, when interviewed on tho matter, said he had not heard any thing about 1t. Since the company secured some land on the west side of Pratt street all sorts of rumora have been heard concerning the plans of the silver combine. It was said that cutlery shop in Northampton, Mass, would be removed to Meriden. but the officials refuse to deny or affirm the story.
 George Rockwell, manager of Roger and Bros is out of town at press eth, but at the office on Silver street his assistant said to-day that the same story had been in the lir for years. When the International Silver cons bine was formed there were two fac- tories in this city, Roger and Ham- ilton's, in the north end. and the pres- ent factory, but the north end fac- tory was discontinued.
 Many of the employees were taken to the spoon" shop where they are still working. while goodly num- Der was let go.
