General A. 8 Daggett Cretired) in behalf Of
the negro soldiers. General Daggetrs re-
marks were an :.ppeal for a decision which
would make IL possible 10 clear the records

This rebuke. administered with consider
able emphasis by a negro to the Secretary

army officer who has been serving as re-
corder. was obviously a surprise 10 the
court. the members OF which refrained from
comment. however. The negro attorney
continued:

k New Corporation.

Last week Lovin & Withers disposed of all their holdings to a corporation which they are to form in Kingman, the principal in which is W. F. dagger, now located at Cumpos, Mexico, where he has large mercantile interests Messrs. Allen E. Ware, of Messrs. Tarr & McComb, at first brought the proposition to the attention of Mir. Jagger, and that gentleman visited Kingman and looked the ground over. He was so well pleased with the prop osition that he at once began negotiat- ions that eventually lead to the sale of the property to the new corporation. Messrs. Lovin & Withers are to in- corporate their business, the new cor poration to take effect on the first day of May, at which time the transfer of the business will take place. Later fuller particulars of the deal will be given through the MINER, but at present we are to lead to believe that lL6 new VIII DC ntdNlll financed and that the purchase and handling of stocks will be put on a different basis than that at present, which will give the people the advan- tage of the difference between buying direct from the manufactures and job bers. Messrs. Lovin & Withers will remain at the head of the concern for long time to come, but will be reliev- ed of much of the burden of managing the company's affairs, which will give them time to look after many important private business interests that are now subordinated to their large mercantile interests.
 That the community will be greatly benefited by the entry of this new corporation into its business affairs goes without saying, and Mir. Ware and Tarr & McComb are to be congrat- ulated on having brought about one of the most important and largest transactions ever pulled off in the county.
