Another Banner Day.

Monday was another banner day
Ter business in Hartford. At am early
hour Monday morning the rumble of
tobacco wagons could be- heard COM
Ing in from all directions and by sum
rise the factory lot was crowded with
wagons waiting to be unluaded. There
were about seventy-five loads regis
tered here Monday. This included
forty loads which bad been stored
here since last Monday, when the
Imperial Company suspended re-
ceiving, owing to the crowded condi-
ton of the factory. BY hard work,
with large force of hands, they I'M
loaded what tobacco was registered
last week, leaving about thir.y-five
loads TO be- unioaded Tuesday.
Notwithstanding the rush and
crowded condition of the factory, the
best Of feeling prevailed and the farm
ers are going away well pleased with
the treatment received from Mr. Tom
Barron and his assistant, as we'll as
the excellent prices received for
their tobacco
Tuesday was another busy day for
the large force of hands at the to-
bacco factory. And regardless CT the
cold rain which fell at intervals the
lot at the factory was crowded with
wagons anxious to unload There were
fifteen. loads registered then, besides
the large number left over from Mon
day. Owing to the dark cloudy day
and the crowded condition OF the fac.
tory they were only able TO unload
twenty-six loads, and at night had
still fifteen loads Left over
Mr. Barron, the manager, as we'll
as Mr., Tanner, the gnader. urge the
people not 30 bring any more TO-
bacco for few days. A

A Good Move.

The following excerpt taken from
tue proceedings of the late National
Union A. S. of E., is important 10
all persons vino have ever belonged
to the society:
I. Mr.. Whiting: | move. Mr.. Presi-
dent that all persons who have at
any time been members of the Amer
lean Society of Equity Of North Amer
lea be reinstated and given all the
privileges of membership if they nav
dues for the year 1909 within inc
nrsf quarter of said year, aud that
all Officers concerned be instructed 10
make every fort to make this known
to all such persons"
1t will be seen that any one VINO
mas ever held membrAsip can be re-
instated by paying dues for 1908, pro
Vlded they do SO in the first three
months of the new year. This is
certainly a magnanamous move and
fbould be met with a quick response
by all old members.

The schedule of assets and llabili.
ties of James H. Parish in BANKRUPT.
cy, long delayed, was filed in the Of
flee of the Deputy United States Court
The schedule is one of the most inter.
esting features in connection with
the failure of the Owensboro Savings
Bank and Trust Company. The sched-
ule bears out many of the allegations
of the Commonwealth in the trial of
James H. Parrish, recently at Halves
vile, and which were denied by the
defendant.
Parrish says his liabilities amount
to $S09,65O.75 and his assets to S212,-
567.2S. The greater portion of his as
sets are warthless and incumbered
stocks.
Mr.. Parishs liabilities, as shown by

IRISH for accommodation of
Total =. e. e. 5000, 650.73
In addition to the above the sched-
ule lists about sixty suits against Mr..
Parrish and other directors of the
bank to recover deposits. on the
ground that the bank was insolvent
when they were made. These are ad-
ded separately as claims asserted
against his estate, but liability on any
OF them is denied. The total amount
of these suits is $54,491.IO.
The assets listed in the schedule
are as follows:
Real estate,all incumbered 5 100000

In addition TO the above, life in

he companies to secure loans. No
attempt is made in the schedule to
estimate the cash surrender value Of
hese policies.
ALI stocks making up the $127,-

Parrish states, that he has not suf-
icient information to estimate the
eal market value" The list includes

curse, is now worthless.
Nearly all Of the stocks and bonds

PETITION DENIED
 TO BUILD STABLf

James A. Price was given leave by the Common Council last night td withdraw his petition to build 1ivery stable in Union Square, after a pubIfd hearing upon the matter. The strong< est protest against the petition wat made by Dennis E. McNamara, whole< sale grocer, and former Mayor H. H<- Pyle of the firm of Pyle & Tonnlinso1> coffee roasters and wholesale grocers< Both concerns have warehouses on thd property adjoining the proposed site o1 the livery stable. MT. Pyle said thera are many things in the stock of gro cery house that are injured by thu smells from a livery stable. He said that the aroma of the freshly roasted coffee would be spelled Mr. McNa- mara said that he had great fear tha1 his stock of butter would suffer if tho stable was allowed to be erected. Sanl- uel w. Gledhill, Clarence Anderson for Mrs. Della Richardson, and Judge Rob< ert E. DeForest for D. H. Warner, also appeared against the proposition
 Attorney E. B. Peck spoke for Mn Price, as did a large number of the residents of Union Square and vicinity who had no objection to the stable. Judge DeForest in speaking for MT. Warner said that his client desired ito protect his tenants in his Main street property. MT. Peck retaliated by stat< ing that MT. Warner had no compunc- ton when he recently erected stabld of his own for 30 horses in strictly residential section. Judge DeForest said there was a difference between a private stable and a livery stable.
