 fsOld the building occupied by the plant to the Warren Woolen company. The machinery will be removed to Woonsocket, R. I where Q building Is being prepared for it. As fast as orders are filled the machinery will be taken down and shipped. The company has until the first of August to get the machinery out. The com pany took the plant over in 1897, buying from the Warren Woolen com. pany. It was capitalized at $50, 900 and the officers are Edwin FarnelI, president; Wm. R. CordingIy. score. tary and treasurer; Alonzo Farrell, ERgent. Walter Scott was she super intendent from the time of it's location here until few months ago, when he was succeeded by John O. Parkin- son. The plant employed about 13O bands and had yearly payroll of about $50, OOO The reason for mak- Ing She change is said to be owing to the excessive tax rate under the new valuation. It is stated that on Q larger amount of machinery in Woonsocket the taxes are much smaller than locally. While the ad- vance in taxes may have hurried the change, it is pretty generally believed that the move would have been made sooner or later, as by centralizing the business an obvious saving in expense can be accomplished. The superin- fendent and the following overseers will follow to the new location: Isaac Mason, Barnes Helliwell, George 2eilly. Andrew Brand and Forrest Stiles. Most of the wool sorters will also go to Woonsocket, including Michael McCrohan, Charles Jacobsen, Wm Wood. Edward Lavine and Owen Mccarthy By the new purchase the
 Warren company win fha spared the. necessity of building, which had been planned for their growing business. connection will be established be- tween the two plants. and the chimney will be built 25 feet higher. The steam plant will be concentrated be- tween the two and will be used to operate the newly purchased building. The carding and spinning will be concentrated in the stone building. and will be operated by the water wheel. The use of the wooden build ing. at the extreme north, for ma. chinery will probably be discontinued. The looms will be moved to the two upper floors of the worsted building. It is not the present intention to in- crease the number of looms, and about 65 will be operated. The lower part of the brick building will be used for such purposes as convenience suggests as the plan of the changes material ize.
