We have received an inquiry from
wholesale concern asking informa-
tion concerning the character of the
business being carried on and the
financial responsibilities of party by
the name of Thomas w. Clark, who is
represented as having been a member
of the firm of Clark & Barringer, at
Morris, Minnesota. In order to reply
satisfactorily thereto, we had repre-
sentative make an investigation and
he reports as follows:
"About a year ago L. James made
some sort of an arrangement with a
farmer living near here by the name
of John w. Clark, and with STEPHEN
Barringer, of Morris. This latter
party has for some time been en-
ployed as carpenter Later material
in small lots arrived at Morris billed
to the L. James Lumber Company. All
this stock, except little quantity of
jack pine, was shipped in this manner.
Either Clark or Barringer called at
the depot when the material arrived
and took it away.
1.-THE business was carried on in
this manner until short time ago
when the so-called firm of Clark &
Barringer dissolved partnership Mr..
Barringer announced that he intended
to continue his contract business and
Mr. Clark is to engage in a so-called
lumber business. They kept practi-
cally no lumber on hand until cou.
pie of months ago, when they re-
ceived a car of western hemlock from
James and also received small cal
of jack pine which they bought indi.
