YELLOW BLOCK
To Be Torn Down-Lumber Will Be
 Sent to Mantle Camp Ground.

Col. M. J. Wise, assistant quarter master general. has completed his ar arrangements, as representative of the state, for the removal of the buildings on Armory square recently advertised to be sold. The buildings were offered for sale to the highest bidder and sey- eral offers were received. A. " Wood worth gets the stable for $25. Peter Casey of Dayville bought the old laun- dry building for $36.50 and Frank A. Davis the old bottling works building for $6. No bids were received for the old Yellow block.
 All of the buildings are to be re- moved from the property of the state at once and the land will probably be clear of them by the end of this month. MT. Woodwork will remove the barn across from the state property to ad- joining land which he owns. It is un- derstood that MT. Casey and Mir. Davis will tear down their purchases for the lumber The Yellow block will also be razed by representatives of the state and the lumber the building contains will be sent to the state camp ground at Mantle. As soon as the buildings are out of the way the land will be graded and seeded and by next sum- mer the vicinity of the armory will have undergone decided change for the better
 Other changes and improvements au- thoTized for the armory include the in- stalling of a Tungsten lighting system to replace the service now in use; painting the roof, interior and exterior of the building; probably new steel lockers and set of azimuth instru- ments and telephone system for use ir practice range finding work. The plct- ting room will be at the left of the main entrance. in the room formerly used as 6 parlor. Many minor changes are to be made.
 It is probable that an ordnance ser geant will be appointed to have the care of the building.
 The removals and alterations con- templated will make the armory and its vicinity a slightly place and will give the members of the Thirteenth com pany better quarters than they could ever hope to have had under other than state ownership.

POSTMASTER RESI6NS. HartwelI Shippee Gives Up South kiIlingIy and $10o Salary.

Hartwel Shippee has filed his resig- nation with the postoffice department as postmaster at South Killingly. This is a fourth class office and last year paid the postmaster $109.
 A notice has been posted in the Danielson postoffice announcing that civil service examination for appoint ment to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of MT. Shippee will be held at Danielson on Nov. 27.
 There has been some talk of closing the office and caring for the business of it by means of the rural free de- livery route recently established from the Danielson office, but it is believed that this move will be objected to by many of the people of South Killingly, as they prefer to have the office to having a rural service.

 Secured S8O.OOO in Danielson,

Secured Sso,o00 in DanieIson.
 Estimates of the amount of money the company secured in Danielson run as high as sS0,000. Manufacturers, business men,, clergymen, laborers, the rich and the poor, bought lots or stock, the latter now conceded to be abso- lutely worthless, and others are in volved through loans to the company to such aN extent in some instances as to bring them to the verge of bank duptcy. The present condition of a. fairs of the company present such a tangled sample of sky-f1nance as has never been presented in eastern Con- necticut.
 Exchanged Promises for Money
 It was said Wednesday night by a person familiar with the affairs of the company that they have, at different times, secured loans involving trust companies and banks in Maine and Vermont. The company made both money and promises in Danielson. ex- changing the latter for the former. On March IS, 1907, they sold $15,000 worth of their preferred, non-cumula- was only one of the deals the Daniel son people were worked for. Two columns would not contain the whole story. The dividends were paid on this stock regularly at the rate of 2 per cent. per annum, until July, 1908, when they were passed, as they have been since. In March, 1907, the assets of the company were given as S110,39O, and their liabilities STATS, showing a net surplus of $36.102. The company, of which L. J. Coburn and Roy D.. Judd were the active heads, have made money in Danielson.
 Creditors in Hopeless Condition.
 When business slumped here, the company went to Mystic, increased the capital stock from $150.000 to S50O, ,000, became heavv borrowers and were finally involved to such an ex- tent as to be unable to extricate themselves. The action taken We'd nesday has been expected for months and means a receiXership and the wind up of a long drawn-out struggle to make good. The situation in which the creditors find themselves is said to be an almost hopeless one. as it is expected that there will be little or no equity when final settlement is made.
