nj. b. Claflin Company Goes to Wall,
Receivers Being Appointed By
Court.

New York, June 25.-The biggest
mercantile failure in the history OF
the United States was precipitated
today when receivers were appointed
for the H. B. Clafin company Of this
city. The company, it is estimated,
owes more than S30,0O0,000 which
at the present time it is unable to
pay. It's assets are said to be S44,
100000.
John Clafin, head Of tie company
and its chief individual stockholder,
is the owner of a cnain Of nearly 30
other dry goods enterprises through
out the country, which are involved
in the failure. Receivers for several
OF these were named today and sim
liar action, it was announced, would
! be taken in the case Of the rest. Their
Abusiness will be continued Under re-
ceivers' management until their finan-
cial affairs have been adjusted.
From 5000 to 5000 banks in all
parts of the United States compose
the bulk of the Clafin creditors, They
hold notes aggregating the major part
Of the liabilities. These notes are
said to have been issued by the vari-
Gus Clafin stores, indorsed by the
H p. Clafin company, and the pro-
ceeds used, when discounted in financ-
ing their needs.

To the Housewife.

Madam, if your husband is like most
men he expects you to look after the
health of yourself and children. Coughs
and colds are the most common of the
minor ailments and are most likely to
lead to serious diseases, A child is
much more likely to contract diphtheria
or scarlet fever when it has a cold. If
you will inquire into the merits of the
various remedies that are recommended
for coughs and colds, you will find that
Chamberlain Cough Remedy stands
high in the estimation of people who
use it. 1t is prompt and effectual,
pleasant and safe to take, which are
qualities especially to be desired when
medicine is intended for children.

Deputy E. w. Rodgers came
down in an auto from Montgom-
cry last Sunday evening having
in custody Lonnie Mccain, charg-
ed with cutting Wilmot Mccain,
assistant cashier of the Bank of
Montgomery. He was lodged in
Jail, pending development Of the
condition of the wounded man.
The young men are first cousins,
and the trouble is said to have
been caused by Lonnie Mccain
being intoxicated and resenting
the fancied interference of his
cousin in a misunderstanding be-
tween himself and another per-
son. Wilmot McCain's condi-
ton is not serious, and his as
sailant has been released from
Jail on bond.

DANIEL B. OBLINGER, CHIEF BUR-
CESS OF THE BOROUGH OF
New HOPE.

Daniel B. Oblinger is Mayor of
New Hope, but hasn't that title. In
Pennsylvania towns the chief execu-
tive officer is called Chief Burgess,
and that is the title that Mr..
Oblinger answers to.
He was Chief Burgess once be-
fore and his administration has not
been forgotten. The way in which
he enforced law and order made the
borough famous for its peaceable-
ness.
The new Chief Burgess is general
manager of the Union Mills Paper
Manufacturing Company, of New
Hope. and is well known through
out Bucks County and the surround
ing country.
1t is expected that Chief Burgess
Oblinger will add to his laurels dur
inp his second administration.

1HEODOhE .. mOOhE, mA1OR OF The
BOROUGH OF STOCKTON.
Theodore S. Moore, Mayor of the
Borough of Stockton, is not exactly
a new hand at the business.
For six consecutive terms he was
the chief executive of that town,
dating from its separation from the
township of Delaware.
Four years ago j. Harvey Snider
(since deceased) was indicted into
office, and two years ago Patrick H.
Ledger took up the reins of office.
Mayor Moore was born in Della
ware Township forty-nine years ago,
and has lived in this section ever
since. His personal occupation is
that of well-driller, a business which
he conducts on large and success
full scale.
The many improvements in Stock
ton were made during his previous
administrations.
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1914-01-01
/. The New Executives.
Each of the new executives has
his own particular traits.

Mayor Morse is a physical giant,
and as a former police officer was
especially efficient. Any ordinary
man who attempted to waltze Sam"
as he was popularity known
around felt it an easier task to shove
the rock of Gibralter. In the late
campaign he surprised everybody by
his strength with the voting popula-
ton, so we will await with interest
his next showing of strength.
"Dory" Moore has the satisfac-
ton of being the only Progressive
party mayor in Hunterdon County,
and he defeated the regular Repub-
lican candidate to do it. The other
candidates name was also Moore.
The new mayor has filled nearly
everything in the way of offices in
Stockton, and is going to fill' this
