Sale of President Bigelow’s Stock Holdings Brought in Other Control- ling Interest, In commenting upon the receiver- ship of the Thames River Specialties Co., a recent issue of The Paper Mill and Wood Pulp News contains the fol- lowing: The troubles of the plant grow out of transactions of President Bigelow, who owned the majority control, and who about a year had a judgment taken against him for about one million dol- lars, this judgment being the climax i of transactions in copper. Under this judgment Mr. Bigelow paid about 0,000, but declined to pay the rest i for reasons that he deemed justifiable. The sale of the common stock, which was owned by Mr. Bigelow, and which was held by a trustee, was then or- dered and it is said it was bought by the Alford-Fairbanks interests, which interests, as are well known, are large- ly interésted in the production of various kinds of paper boards in this country, having mills in Chicago, Iil., Haverhill, Mass,, Piermont, N. Y., and Bogota, N, J. The purchase of this common stock put the Alford-Fairbank interest in| control of the company, and their po- sition was further strengthened by the sale of some of the company’s bonds owned by Mr. Bigelow, but which he had placed as collateral with a Boston bank.

PROFITS $230,000 |-~ Creditors’ Committee Makes this Pleasing Statement—Has Plan to Retire $1,691,508 Balance Due Bank Creditors —Over $550,000 of Bank Debt Has Been PaidOff. — g Net profits of the United States Finishing company for the year that will end with June 30, 1914, exceed $220,000, according to the very pleas- ing statement of the condition of af- fairs of this concern as detailed by the creditors’ committee, of which Herbert J. Wells, president of the Rhode Island Hospital Trust company, is_chairman, Net profits of the concern for the Year now ending exceed $230,000. For the balance of the bank indebtedness outstanding the concern offers to_ the bank creditors notes to be dated Sept. 13, 1914, all to be paid within three vears, with interest, and the commit- tee has accepteq this offer, subject to the formal approval of the banks, which must give their answer not later than July 15, 1914. The circular is as follows: Committee’s Statement. To the Creditors of the United States Finishing Company: The bank creditors of the United States Finishing company now hold notes which aggregate $1,681,508.78. ince the report of the committee of July 24, 1913, your committee has been giving close attention fo the affairs of the company and acting in constant cooperation = with the stockholders’ committee and with the officers of the company. Also since the last report of the committee, Mr. C. L, Bausher has, owing to ill-heaith, resigned as a member of the committee, and the committee has, in accordance with the provision of the creditors’ agreement of March 20, 1913, elected Mr. John Quinn a member of the committee, and Mr. Wells has been chosen chair- man, As the conditior of the company and its affalrs improved, your committes felt justified in notifying the stock- holders’ committee and the compeany that, while up to this year vour com- mittee had shown great forbearance, the time in your committee's opinion had come when there should be affirm- ative action on the part of the stock- holders to save their equity and prop- erty, and. in accordance with that de- mand from your committee, the offi- cers of the company have for some time been actively at work in endea- voring to raise the funds from the stockholders to make a substantial payment upon account of the bank indebtedness. Condition Satisfactory. Your committee s now glad to be able to report a satisfactory condition of the company and a firm offer from the company, which, in the opinion of your committee, will yield to the bank creditors the payment of their | cluims in full with interest, as out- lined below. The original bank debt of the com- pany amounting, when your commit- tee was formed. to approximately $2,- latoral, the application of offsets &nd the payment of 10 per cent. on ac- count last September, been reduced by over $550,000, so that the present bank is $1,691,508, represented by notes of | the company. These notes all mature on the same date, to wit, Sept. 13 of this year. The stockholders have agreed to take an issue of serial debentures, to be dated approximately Sept. 1, 1914, and to be payable in equal install- ments, in six. seven, eight and nine Year after that date, which will enable the company to pay in cash to the bank creditors on Sept. 13, the date when the present bank indebtedness matures, thirty-three and one-third per cent. (33 per cent.) of its bank indebtedne: which cash payment amounts in round numbers to $564,- 000 For the balance of the bank indebt- edness, the company offers to the bank creditors its notes to be dated Sept. 13, | 1914, in the amounts and maturing as | follows: Twenty per cent. (20 per cent.) of the balance after the payment of said 33 1-3 per cent. in one year; twen- ty-five per cent. (25 per cent.) of said balance in two years, and the remain- ing fifty-five per cent. (55 per cent.) of said balance in three years, with in- terest at six per cent. (6 per cent.) per annum, payable quarterly. The com- pany reserves the right to anticipate pavment of eaid notes in whole, or ratably in part, on any interest day The company agrees that it will antici- pate these notes to the fullest extent made possible, in the judgment of its directors, by its earnings. Three Essentials. In connection with this offer of the company, your committee has had in mind three essential things: First, the control of the company while the bank indebtedness remained outstanding; secondly, that all obligations to the bank creditors should mature at dates | materially earlier than the maturity ot any debenture or Lond indebtedness of the company; and, thirdly, the pos ponement of the declaration or pa ment of dividends until the bank in- deltedness should be paid 1. As to the control of the compan: the stockholders’ committee, which h proxies from $5 per cent. or more the stockholders, agrees that of until these new notes to the banks are paid that committee will vote the stock of the company for a board of eight di- rectors made up of the three members | of your committee or their nominees, two representatives of the stockhold- | ers of the company, two representa- tives of the subscribers to said benture bonds and the president of the | Your committee has entire | confidence In the integrity and effi- ciency of the present management of | he company and believes that with | he board of directors so constituted | the interests of the bank creditors will be fully safeguarded. 2. The last maturity of the proposed note issue to the banks becomes due | and payabie some two vears earlier | than the first maturity of the proposed | serial debentures and of the bonded in- | debtedness of the company. In the opinion of the committee, the earnings | of the company will provide for the | payment of all interest and company | de- | charges of every character and also be | sufficient to retire the aid note indebt- | edness as it matures 3. As to dividends of the company, | the proposed debentures will contain | a provision to the effect that no divi- | dends shall be paid upon the stack of Restores natural and youthful color and beauty to grey or faded hair.

Good Profits Made. The earnings of the company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1914 (June estimated), as certified by Messrs. Barrow, Wade, Guthrie & Co. your committee’s accountants, show net profits, over and above all Interest charges, of over $230,000- this despite the prevailing business depression and while the company was handicapped as the result of mismanagement by former officers. The company earn- ings have thus steadily increased and the outlook is favorable for improved business under much better conditions than those that obtained last year. Your committee, after mature con- sideration, has accepted the above of- fer subject to the approval of the banks, and has agreed to give a defi- nite answer on or before July 15th of this year. Your committee therefore strongly recommends that you ratify its action and requests that your im- | mediate affirmative response, upon the | form enclosed herewith, be sent to the | committee care of John Quinn, 31 Nassau street, New York. A stamped and addressed envelope is enclosed for your reply. Respectfully vours, HERBERT J. WELLS, Chairman. GEORGE S.

Commissioner Donohue Decides He is Entitled to Payment for Injuries. An award in the case of Harry E. Henkin vs the Max Gordon Corp., has been flled in the superior court by Compensation Commissioner James J. Donohue. The clalmant appeared at | the hearing in person and was ar- companied by his uncle lsrael Henkin, R. C. Dickenson, attorney for the Travelers Insurance Company of Hart- fodr, Dr. Patrick Cassidy, Samuel Goldberk, vice president of the Max | Gordon and Son Corp.. and Harry M. | Land, secretary of the corporation represented the respondent. A hearing | on fthe matter was held on June 22 be- fore Commissioner Donohue. Both parties had accepted the provisions of the workmen's compensation act, the respondent having proven their sol- vency by taking out insurance with the Travelers Insurance company of Hart- ford. Both parties agreed that the av- erage weekly wage of the claimant was $10.60 per week while he was in the employ of the corporation. Harry E. Henkin, the claimant was the first witness called and he told | of receiving an injury about three and a half weeks previous to the time of his operation for hernia which was per- formed at the Backus hospital on April 21. The injury occurred while he was doing some heavy lifting in the employ | of the corporation. The claimant also testified that on | the date on which he was injured he complained of having strained him- self to Harry M. Land who is the sec- retary of the corporation, and was told by Mr. Land to take a rest as the lifting was too heavy Samuel Goldberg, the vice president, testified that although he did not know and commented upon it to the mem- bers of the firm. Dr. PatrickJ. Cassidy told of op- erating upon the claimant for hernia at the Backus hospital on April 21, that while there were conditions which might have ex- isted previous to the time of the In- jury, there was no doubt that a recent protusion had taken place. The award is to the eff: t that Harry | 1. Henkin be paid the sum of per week by the respondent, beszin- ning May 2, 1914 to continue during the period of his incapacity tegether with any medical, surgical and hosplt- al services which were received by him during the 30 days following May 1914, Commissioner Donohue makes comment In his finding: While it is clatmed by the respond- ent that the condition was one of a pre-existing disease, rather than an entirely new condition, we have no right to deny a man his compensa- tion on account of any hereditary ten- dency, which may or may not have ex- isted in a certain individual, and | which, at best, is something more or | less speculative on our part. for who can be said to be a perfectly sound in+ this dividual, or where can you find such | a specimen of humanity. In blood poisoning cause ard effect are never co-incident, still no one de- nies the fact that b'cod poisoning is a personal injury. In the vast ma- Jority of medical ailments, and a great many surgical conditions, the cause (by perioda of time more ity or personal injury. in extent or lapse of cause and effect producing disability or personal Injury should have no bearing on the payment of amount or refusal of compensation, so long as the fact is established that there was relation or connection 'e- | tween the Injury and the occupation out of which it arose. Whether it was a case of blood poi- | soning with an interval between cause and effect of three days, or a ase of hernia with an interval of thres weeks should have no material bearing so far as the refusal of compensation is concerned. In the state of Connecticut, our statute, in Section 1 of there is nothing in the law which personal injury dependent | upon an accident: in fact. personal in- Jury causing disability may arise from causes quite other than accident. In Massachusetts, a man who developed pneumonia from getting into the water in the course of his employment was allowed compensation. In this in- stance you would not consider it an actident in the strict sense of the Wurfl. A number of instances of dis- .u_l\l]ll)' or personal injury might be cited in which the clause could not, be attributed to an a dent. It is very evident that the conclusion which should be drawn should depend upon the fact that the employment was the contributing, proximate cause of the injury.

NORWICH THE PARENT. Mrs. Edward D. Fuller. A recent gift to the Peck library, Slater ball, from Mrs, Edward D. Fui- ler is a copy of the History of Nor- wich, England. Since Founders' and Benefactors’ days were celebrated here and there was the pleasant inter- change of greetings between the old Norwich and the new, there has been much interest to know something about the town for which the Connecticut one was named in 1659, Our Venerable Parent. When it is considered that the old Norwich was a fishing station from 50 B. C. till A. D. 400 or 600, it wlil be seen that Norwlich, Conn. although a lusty daughter 266 years old, is the merest baby compared with its parent city. The latter very likely took its rise to the dignity of a town after the departure of the Romans, A. D. 418, 80 that it is about 1,496 years older than the Connecticut Norwich. Situated Alike. The original name was probably “Northwic,” signifying northern sta- tion, o ra winding river, from its loca- tion. Strangely enough, the two cities of Norwich are situated very much alike, since Norwich, England, is on a sloping hill, with the river Wensum running parallel on the south, above its confluence with the river Yare. It is about 20 miles from the sea at Yar- mouth and is 108 miles from London. Comprises 6,630 Acres. It is a city and a county of itseif, including many picturesque hamlets and comprises 6,630 acres—which makes the nine-miles-square of Nor- wich on the Thames look small. It is the capital of Norfolk county. The Great Eastern rallway places it in communication with all the large towns of England. It has ample tele- graphic facliities, and navigation by the river Wensum to Yarmouth. An ancient wall, with 12 beautiful gates, once surrounded the city. It has 40 parish churches, the ma- Jority, of course, Episcopalian. Its market place is important and iis streets are named from the ancient places of business for which they were originally distinguished; there i Glover's row, Mercer's row, Spicer's | row, Needler's, Ironmonger’s, Apothe- cary’s, Merchants' and other rows; also the Bread market, Flesh market, Wool and Sheep market, Fish market, Hay, Wood, Cheese and other markets. Has Varied Manufactures. The city has long been famous for its textile industries, its manufactur- ing of shawls, silk, horsehair cloth, paper and leather, its sales of coal, cattle, corn, et al. Most of these in- dustries are mentioned before the reign of Richard II. By the end of 1700 Nor- wich manufactures were in demand all over the continent The English city is chiefly famed for its castle, built in the reign of Uffa, first king of East Angzeles, soon after . and its cathedral, of which there is a pqhotograph in the Converse Art gallery, Slater hall. This cathedral vas built In 1094 by Herbert de Los- inga. bishop of Thetford, who removed his see to Norwich. School Lord Nelson Attended. The ancient eity has famous schools, among them the free grammar school founded by Bishop Salmon in 1325 Here Lord Nelson and other celebrities were educated. There is a noted corn exchange, a | public library founded in 1837 which has over 30,000 volumes, a museum, cavalry barracks built by the govern- ! ment in 1791 at a cost of £20,000. A. D. Bayne's book, which is the one | presented by Mrs. Fuller. gives the population in 1866 as 75,000,s0 it has probably increased by this time to 95,000 or 100,000.
