Unreasonable weather has made the
buying of winter clothing and sup
plies generally slow and this week
sees the merchants busy with their an
nual clearing out sales. G. A. Otto
meyer, The Bee Hive and the Colum-
bia Clothing Store are all taking care
of big crowds this week and it is safe
to say that by the end of week or
ten days many people will be waIkir1<
about in new winter wraps and many
homes will be supplied with comforts,
and necessities that they lacked before
the merchants found time to mark
down the prices. At least, the wise
housekeeper will be watching to take
advantage OF all the offerings she has
before her this week.
AS an aftermath to the runaway
accident in the Town of Milford.
December Oath, in which Robert Lam
brecht was quite severely injured,
Otto Schreyer found himself in Justice
Court last Wednesday morning,
charged with assault in the second
degree. Mrs. Robert Lambrecht is
the complaining witness. She claims
that in trying to drive past them Mr..
Schreyer intentionally frightened their
horses and caused them to run away.
According to her story, Mr.. Schreyer-
yelled at the top of his voice and
struck the horses of the Lambrechf-
team when he passed them just at the
entrance to the grove and that this
made the horses run away and upset
the surrey, causing the injuries to Mr..
Lambrecht who will as result there
OF, be laid up for several weeks. Mr..
Schreyer admits driving by them but
denies vehemently that he yelled, or
struck the horses Or was in any way
responsible for the accident. From
the preliminary examination held
Wednesday morning. Justice John
Buschers felt that sufficient evidenc
had been produced to warrant him in
binding the defendant over to the
May term of the District Court to
await the action of the grand jury
which he did. Bail was fixed at $500
which Mr.. Schreyer furnished and he
was thereupon discharged from
custody.

Morgan & Co.Quits
Big Corporations.
FASTENED BY RUMORS
Action Follows Reports That Al,
ninIStratiOn Would Go After
InterIoCking DIrectoTates.

New York, Jan al. T. Morgan
& Co. has announced that it has sew
cred its connections with some OF
the greatest corporations in the toun-
try with which i, has long been con,
nected
This step, the firm announced. was
taken voluntarily i'll response to IAN
apparent change in public sentiment
cn account OF some OF Th,. profile ms
and criticisms having to do with 81,
called interlockins directcrates.
Among the companies from which
The firm retired are the New yorl:
Central and New Haven railroads
J. P. Morgan, il, remains a director
OF the Northern Pacific, as do Charles
Steele and William Henry Porter,
members of the Hrin. Thomas La.
mont OF the same finn also remains
a Northern Pacific aicnctor
The necessity ot attending many
hoard meetings has been so serious
a burden upon our time that we have
long wished to withdraw from the Iii,
rectOrates Of many corporations,
says statement issued by j. p
Morgan.
Task Reluctantly Accepted.
Most OF these directorships we
have accepted with reluctance and
only because we felt constrained to
Eeep in touch with properties which
we had reOrganiZed or whose Securl-
ties we had recommended to the pub
lie both here and abroad.
AN apparent change in public sen.
tinent in regard to the rdirectorships
seems now 20 warrant us in seeking
to resign from some OF these connec
ticns.
Indeed it may be. iii view OF the
change in sentiment upon the sub
ject. that we shall be IN better posi-
ton to serve such properties and
directors.
We have already resigned from
the companies mentioned. and we e..
pect from time to time to withdraw
from other boards upon which We
feel there is no special obligation to
remain"
BY withdrawing from these corpo,
rations ]. P. Morgan & Co. have cut
the strings that have held together
many Of the country's most impor.
tant corporations in a community of
interests which has been assaileG
within and without congress.
Action Was Not Forced.
The house OF Morgan feels that j,
has kept within the law in all OF its
complex operations and that no legal
necessity or threatened complications
with the authorities at Washington
had made it necessary to adopt the
sweeping change in policy announced.
The chief consideration, it was
said, which has prevented the firm;
from taking some such action before
this time was the possible compiled
tons which might follow such action.
Investors throughout the world have
purchased securities marketed by the
house OF Morgan and it was felt that
the firm had assumed a responsibility
in this connection which could not be
lightly laid aside.
The recent trend of political events
such as the money trust" investiga-
ton by the Puio committee, and re-
ports from Washington that the adj
ministration is considering legisla
ton against interlocking directorates
| has created a situation which made
it possible to enter upon this change
in policy

One of the delightful social events of
the winter took place. last Thursday
evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
A. B. Dalthorp when the ladies of the
Century Club entertained their hus-
bands. Heretofore it has been the
custom of the ladies to hold a program
and then serve supper, but this yea1
the plan was changed and the banquet
was scheduled for seven o'clock. After
the guests had assembled they were
invited to be seated in the large dining
room and a most delicious dinner was
served in courses. The gentlemen
were sent up stairs after dinner while
the ladies prepared the stage for a de-
lightful little play entitled How the
Story Crew." This was produced by
the ladies of the club in a most charm,
ing manner and vas greatly a%ppreciat-
ed by the gentlemen. After the play
Mrs. Seymour rendered a solo and
Mrs. Hymes gave a delightful mono-
logue selection. Miss Vivian Nyman
also favored the company with two ex,
cellent piano solos, and Mrs. Mont
Henry gave a reading. In the past the
ladies have usually had the gentlemen
engage in guessing contests, etc., but
this year the ladies provided the entire
evenings entertainment and one and
all of the gentlemen voted it the best
ever.
