he sold them a majority of the stock;
that at the annual meeting in 1911 they
combined and ousted him as president,
Immediately increasing their salaries, and
that since then no dividends have been
declared, as the profits have been alb
sorbed by the respondents in salaries.
He names Charles ]. Somers, recently
dismissed as Deputy City Collector OF
Jersey City and now president of the
company: Thomas J. Musson, William j.

HORSE SHAMES A LAUNDRYMAN

A decent effort by horse to assist in
the prompt delivery OF laundry last even
ing is not likely to be appreciated unless
some mention OF the incident Is made.
The horse was more or less connected
with a laundry wagon driven by George
J. Payment Of No. 143 East SD street.
The vehicle contained shirts and collars
for early evening use; but the Interior
ence of traffic policemen and automobiles
so delayed progress that it was o'clock
before Columbus avenue and 65th street
was reached
There something happened which caused
Payment to halt. The horse waited TOT
few minutes. shuffied its feet nervousiy
and then gave reproving look at the
driver. Payment failed TO give a signal
to proceed, and the horse became so dis-
gusted that 1t bolted out OF the line OF
traffic and headed for the customary
points OF delivery up Broadway.
