At Hearing Before Referse in Bank- ruptoy Browning R. O. Libbey Stated His Position. At 10 o'clock Wednesday morning the hearing in regard to the claim of R. O. Libbey of this city mg- Technical Equipment company of Fi- antic was reopened in the office of ‘Referee In ptey Amos A Browning in order to secure and pre- sent new evidence by Trustee V. P. A. Quinn. Attorney H. H. Pettis appeared for Mr. Quinn and Attorney C. V. James represented Mr. Libbey. 3 Mr. Libbey explained in answer to questions propounded by Attorney Pet- tis the manner in which he was paid for his work. The company supplicd the raw material and his income was 60 per cent. of the gross profits. After preliminaries regarding the matter of figuring cost and production the matter of eeveral credits in May, 1913, was discussed and it was found that checks received by the witness from the com- pany for different amounts were not credited on the account. It was stated by the witness that according to his books the company owed hi mon Dec. 13, 1913, $647.62 and t on Jaan, 26. 1814, the amount was 7.56. He said he had received $222.50, leaving a bal- ance of $495. The counsel for the trustees introduced a statement that action had been brought in the court of common pleas on the common count on Feb. 6, 1914, to recover $500. He inquired how it was that the witness claimed $1,059.57 and that in February the claim was less than half that amount. The trustee made effort to proev that the witness owed the com- pany instead of the company owing him. According to the trustee there was an item for $130.62 for returned goods that should have been charged back to the witness and returned goods by Tiffany, Vogel Pittsburgh amounting to $7 should have been credited. Court was adjourned until Saturday the referee, when the arguments ill be heard. STONINGTON BATTLE BADGES. Descendants of Those Who Opposed the British 100 Years Ago Will Get Them Free.
