DEAL OF CAMDEN
IRON co. KEEPS
OUTPUT'DO

Trenton. n. j.. Nov. 16.-Details OF
an agreement by which the Camden
Iron Works, one of the largest produc-
ers OF shrapnel shell presses in the
United States, has been prevented from
putting on the market another OF these
machines since last May have been
revealed in the United States district
court for New Jersey in an argument
before Judge Haight as published here
today.
1t was reported that German infiu-
ences were responsible for the making
Of the contract but this could not be
confirmed Neither did the proceedings
reveal that such was the case.
The question before the court was
the disposition of s125,o0o involved in
the case. The Camden Iron Co. which
is in the hands of a receiver had made
an agreement through its president,
Walter Wood, with the Bridgeport
Projectiles Co, by which the Camoen
concern was prevented from selling
presses to any other person or corpor-
alton than the Bridgeport company. 1t
was alleged that Wood was paid $780,
400 for executing the contract, $42Wo
of which went to an agent as commits
sions. The receiver. Heulings Lippin-
colt. claimed the s125,CO0 belonged to
the creditors of the Camden company.
Wood contended that he had a right
to half the money as he had obtained
enough other work to keep the plant
busy.
The court reserved decision.
