Acid Plant Sale Postponed

Brunswick.-The postponement
of the sale Of the picric acid plant,
scheduled for May 20, to June ., has
caused a number of reports to gain
circulation as to the prospective pur-
chasers of the mammoth plant but,
as far as is known, none of the re-
ports come automatically. No special
reason was given for the postpone
ment Of the sale, or rather the open
ing of bids, therefore numerous re-
ports as to why the bids were not
opened have reached this city.
