HAS lis CREDITORS.
w. P. Hall, Formerly in Drug Business
in Burlington.

Burlington, Oct ll.-One hundred and
fifteen creditors are mentioned in the
petition of W. +. Hall in bankruptcy
proceedings, which was filed with Ref
cree J. T. Stearns yesterday afternoon.
The liabilities in the petition are given
as S6.46l 75 and the assets at s. .635, of
which only $s5 is claimed as exempt.
Mr.. Hall, who formerly operated the
Crystal pharmacy does not follow the
usual course of bankruptcy proceedings,
but takes advantage of the act of Con-
gress passed in 1910, which provides that
an insolvent may make an offer of set
tlement to his creditors, and that if
majority Of these agree to adopt it be-
fore the court officials. the insolvent
receives his discharge without going
through the regular process of bank
ruptcv. He thus avoids being in name
bankrupt. A meeting of these credit
ors has been called for October 2l at }
o'clock
