Champlain Manufacturing Co.'s Shop in
Burlington.

Burlington July ls.-The shops OF
the Champlain Manufacturing company
which have been closed for month
pending inventorizing stock. by Z. w
Parkhill. receiver, will start up again
next week, probably on Monday, with IS
hands.
Mr.. Parkhill said yesterday that the
chair and box department only would be
continued at present. As there are no
contracts to complete for interior finish,
this part of the shop will be discon-
tinued, for the present, at least, with
the probability that the machinery will
be disposed of to other wood working
factories.
There is a large amount OF chair
and box stock in process of manufac-
ture, contracts for which are in hand,
and it is believed that these contracts
can be fulfilled without serious loss,
A leading contractor from Cuba, who
had placed large order for chairs with
the Champlain Manufacturing Co has
been here the past week and is salts
fed to have the remainder Of the work
done here.
ID is likely that IL the shops can be
run at profit. without the interior fin.
ish department, reorganization will be
effected later.

OF HIDING PLACE
He Says that Sea Girt Callers Are Too
Numerous to Allow Him
to Work.

Sea Grit, n. j., July ls.-That he will
be obliged to seek some place where he
can keep his presence secret, in order
to complete his speech and letter ac-
cepting the Democratic presidential nom
alton was the statement of Gov. Will
son yesterday He made it plain that
while he welcomed the many visitors
who called to pledge support and was
glad that they came, he believed he
would have to secure absolute quiet so
that he could get these important mat
tiers out of the way.
The governor said that he expected TO
confer with National Chairman McCombs
to-day, and that the treasurer and vice.
chairman of the national committee
would then be announced. 1t is generally
believed that Henry Morgenthau of New
York will be treasurer and that William
G. MeAdoo will be yice-chairman.
Whether Wilson will resign his office
as governor or retain it during his pres
idential campaign will be known def
nitely soon, perhaps within few days.

"Everybodys Cyclopedia" is correctly

been eliminated and the explanation
made strikingly clear by the addition of
abundant illustrations.

DANGER OF BANKRUPTCY.
If Railroads Have to Grant All Demands
Upon Them.

New York, July lS.-Main railroads
would face bankruptcy if the now pend
ing demands of various employees for in
creased wages should all be granted, it
was asserted by b. A. Worthington yes
terday, when he resumed argument in
behalf of the 50 eastern railroads before
the arbitration commission which is de-
Gliding the wage dispute between the rail-
roads and the locomotive engineers.
He said that while only the demands
of the engineers are directly before the
commission, the iremen have filed an
application for an increase. which would
cost the railroads S20.000000 year. He
added that shopmen and other classes of
employees also expect an advance.
