This concern has built many homes for thoss employed at the mill here, having done away with many of the old houses which were located on Mechanic street when they built the large addition to their mill.

Work has been brisk during the preseat year, a lagrer output has been made than for some time past and the mill has been running steadily althroughout tne year.

It is understood that this department is not hiring any union men, on any of the work on the high- ways, because of the fact that they be- long to a body which allowed them to uphold the men in stoning laborers who were willing to work on the jobs while they were on strike during the past two months. The sewer ‘work is at a stand- still and the contractors released frcm their contract, just when this work will again be taken up has not been determ- ined, but probably work on the sewer will not be underway this summer at least, as the streets are being put in shape by the highway department where left rough by the sewers being put in JEWETT CITY A meeting of the stockholders of the Jewett City Trust company was held at 10 a. m. Thursday in the banking rooms of the company in the Rioux block. It was the most important meeting, directly controlling lecal financial matters, that street, is was ever held in Jewett City. April 22| the president, both vice presidents and the secretary and treasurer, together with the entire local membership of the board of directors, offered their resigna. tions, which were accented. The Teasons given for these resignations was that the local management was not wholly satis- fled with the procedure and poiicies of the New York control. This control ex- isted only by the scant marzin of two shares. The next day, after this not altogether unforecasted shakeup, the bank stemmed a run upon its deposit accounts to the tune of over $100,000. The depos- its at that time would doubtiess have been cleaned out but for the fact that there was apparently no end to the cur- rency in sight. Since that time the business of the bank has been as noth- ing, the comparison appearing in sharper figures, because compared With the first three weeks, when déposits aften ran as high as $40,000 in a single day. At the meeting held Thursday morning the New York-controlled stock was taken over by local people, so that now the Jewett City Trust company is home-owned and home- controlled. In taking up the offer of Thursday the New York people virtually accepted conditions of transfer which they so decidedly turned down less than a month ago. The Bulletin correspondent learned that the meetinz was not of the stormy order, also that in relinquishing the control of stock held by them the New York holders stand to suffer no ap- preciable loss. The meeting spelled the difference between existence and liquida- tion, and there were nonme present who were not possssed of a full realization of that current fact. Now it is the plan to hold a meeting next Monday, at which time it will be in order to acceot the resignations of the passing . officials that have been in charge of the bank since Avril 24. There wiil also be an election, and all-round reorganization, a president, two vice presidents and secretary and treasurer will be chosen, ! board of directors. It is ‘confidently be: lieved in local financial circles that theve will be no change in the personnel of the officers who at first so succeasfully and satisfactorily operated the new institu-|{ ‘tion. . The bank- has.survived its passing | trouble, has never once repudiated its paper or questioned: evidence of deposit. Finally, it is an urgent need in Jewett City, and no doubt exists that its rehabil- itation will stand for other than benefit. Sidney A. Brown, sheriff of New Lon don_county, . appointed Wednesday John T. Dolan of this place as deputy sheriff. Mr. Dolan is a native of Jewett City, was graduated from ‘the Riverside grammar school and from the Norwich Business college. He was night patrolman for two and one-haif vears. A large number of the friends of the late Waliter B. Crooks whose homes are in Jewett City were in Norwich Wednes- day to attend his funeral services. No- table among the floral remembrances was the token from the Aspinook offids force in Jewett City, where Mr. Crooks was beloved as an associate worker and a {riend.
