Upon this basis the auditors | { from a former resident of Norwich |__ g i SN | tract, Condition of The McCrum-Howell Company Set Forth in Statement Filed in United States District Court in made a deduction for bad debts, etc., of $1,182,239.85, It is further stated that the repre- sentatives of Gunn, Richards & Co., visited the various plants and offices of the company and personally super- vised the taking of inventories of raw materials, finished, partly finished goods, etc., and the pricing of various items, which show an aggregate value of $668,577.95. This is the figure, it is explained, that they expect the in- ventories will realize in the conduct of business as a_going concern, after eliminating all obsolete material or taking it at scrap value. The various plants, real estate, buildings, machinery, equipment and investments of the company were ap- praised, the figures being based on the company, equity in these properties, after making due allowance for mort- gages and encumbrances thereon. This valuation included the sum of $182,048.49 for patterns and drawings and $25,683.50 for office furniture and fixture: The report states that the statement of liabilities includes all the known obligations of the company, as dis- closed by an examination of its rec- ords, but does not take into account contingent liabilities of $53,653.15, the greater part, If not all, of which it is believed the estimate should not be required to pay. Disputed claims ag- gregating $613,686 are not taken into account. They consist of a claim of George C. Schimitz on an alleged con- tract for Toyalty on portable vacuum cleaners for $73,686, and a claim of one Machette for 3»40."0", based on a contract with one Haffey, which con- it is alleged was assumed or guaranteed by the McCrum-Howell company. These claims, the receivers said, in their opinion should be vigo; ously contested. In conclusion th receivers say that the statement of liabilities and assets does not take into account any patents, patent right, licenses under patents, trademarks or g0od will, in respect to the value of which they venture no opinion, but in acquiring which the company has, no doubt, expended large sums, either in cash or shares of stock. The receivers declare that they are informed that title to a great many patents is vested in the company; that they have definite knowledge of others under which the company is iicensed in consideration of the payment stated intervals of substantial amounts as royalties, the most important of which appears to he the Kenney pat- ent, relating to vacuum cleaners. This ent 18 owned by the Vacuum aner company of New York, a poration in which t McCrum- w 1 has no interest, and ense thereunder was McCrum-Howell company exclusive ny an granted in consideration of the pavment as minimum royalty of $30,000 per an- num. The receivers aver that con- tinued negotiations, which were under way at the time of their arrangement with the Vacuum Cleaner company by which the minimum royaity will, der certain conditions, be reduced $25,000 per annum, until a decision rendered by the court aining alidity of the patent.
