Michigan Manufacturer on Canadian
Soil Awaiting Devolopments

CHICAGO. September 2-Dismayed by
the condition OF his financial affairs and on
the verge of physical breakdown, Jesse
e. Hall. president OF the Belding-Hall
Manufacturing Company, is on the other
Side OF the Canadian border awaiting the
result of the investigation now being made
by the company's creditors.
Clay Clement, the actor with whom Mr.
Hall was associated in q theatrical yen-
ture. told last evening of accompanying Mr..
Hall to Detroit. @
Developments indicate that the venture
OF the refrigerator manufacturer into the
theatrical business. when he backed Sam
Houston" was but drop in the bucket
with his other financial ventures Accord
ing to Mr.. Clement. who played the title
role In this production. Mr.. Hall invested
but small sum of money in the play.
doing this because he had had a hand in
the writing of the play.
Mr.. Hall was collaborating with Mr.
Clement in writing a play at the time he
left Chicago.
The liabilities of the Beding- Hall Manu-
featuring Company are estimated at $780,
600 to 100000.

men were as varied as their own PERSONAL
tiles. While majority Of the men were
provided with up-to-date double barreIed
breechloaders. others carried old-fashioned
muzzle-loaders. some Of them single-bar-
relied. Among the poorer contingent old
army mUskets had been pressed into serv-
Ice. and some Of the boys carried air rifles
and the small shot pistols that sell at
about 7o cents each and would not kill
mayf1y at three yards. One old colored
man had a musket which had originally
been flintlock. but had been changed to
percussion shooter. He said 1t had been
in his possession since "befo' de war" The
venerable gun Is said to scatter a load Of
shot over a wider radius than the noted
old blunderbusses of ancient Mexico with
their wide-mOuthed muzzles. The aged
colored man said he had knocked out many
flock Of blackbirds with the old musket.
At an early hour this morning Capt.
John G. Daley of the ninth precinct, in
which the marshes are located detailed an
extra mounted policeman to duty near the
shooting grounds, The officer was provided
with copy Of the law which went into
effect yesterday. and which permits the
shooting after September / of reedbirds,
ortolan. rail and marsh blackbirds.
Even before this cavalry policeman reach
ed the scene of the promiscuous shooting
the wisdom of Capt Daley's action became
apparent. A report was received at No. 9
police station that one of the hunters in
his over-anxiety to pot bunch of birds
had discharged both barrels of his gun in
the direction of an electric car bound for
Benning. The shot struck the windows of
the car and ratified uncomfortably close to
the heads Of the few early morning pas
sengers in the vehicle, but fortunately no
one was hurt Word of the shooting was
telephoned to the mounted officer and he
was instructed to patrol the Benning road
near the marshes and caution the gunners
not to shoot in the direction of the thor
oughfare.
This afternoon the crowd of hunters
increases to be in at the settling down.
shoot at sunset, Capt Daley has ordered
that extra bicycle policeman be placed
on duty near the shooting grounds
The police report this afternoon that
judging from the constant firing in the

eastward tells of the slaughter of the IN
nocents.'
The reedbird and ortolan season was
inaugurated at the break O. day this morn
ing by the sportsmen of Washington.
The fire and smoke Ct the massacre
ragged all day in the eastern marshes and
other hunting places in the District, and
casualties on the side Of the feathered
tribe are said to be enormous
While the morning stars were yet sing
ing in the east. and darkness was over the
city many of the hunters were astir, and
soon all roads appeared to lead TO the
hunting grounds out beyond the grim brown
Jail as the men and boys with their guns
and their dogs wended their way eastward
In the gray Of the dawning the battle was
opened. At first there were few desui-
tory and scattering shots, but as the sun
began to climb above the eastern horizon
and there were constant arrivals of re-
Inducements the firing became almost IN
cessant.
Sounded Like Battle.
In the Eastern branch of the Potomac
the lowlands were alive with hunters. the
puffs of smoke and reports of their guns
betrayiDg the presence Of the sportsmen,
despite the heavy growth of reeds.
A veteran gunner who has made excur-
sions to the marshes for many years. when
asked as to the pienitude of game today,
declared:
"Reedbirds are almost as plentiful as
sands on the seashore. and the birds are
plump and in prime condition. because of
the great supply Of their customary food
in the marshes
The gunners in the marshes today repre-
sent every age, color and condition. There
were old men and young ones, black, white
and yellow and not a few boys. Some
were shooting for the sport of it. others
as a matter of business. These sold the
birds they killed to restaurants or COM
mission merchants. Others killed because
of their own fondnass for the savory
toasted reedies and ortolan

marshes the gunners must be doing great
execution among the bird tribes.
No Accident-Yet,

Up to a late hour this afternoon no
serious accident had been reported from
the eastern marshes or other places where
the sportsmen are SO much in evidence.
The fact that this is a legal holiday. be-
sides being the first shooting day Of the
season. has greatly increased the number
Of gunners.
At number of the restaurants today hot
reedbirds fresh from the Eastern branch
were served to customers. The first of the
season were held at rather fancy prices,
but 1t is believed the figure will go down
by tomorrow.
Word was received today from the Pa
the reedies and ortolan are equally plentiful
there, and are as prime and plump as those
in this immediate vicinity. 1t is said there
are also many hunters out today in the
marshes near Four-mile run and other
parts of Alexandria county.
