A special meeting of the Merchants.
and Manufacturers‘ Association was‘
held last evening at the South Norwalk
Club. at which the matter of retaining
the McKlbbln Manufacturing Company
was the subject of discussion. The
committee which was appointed at the
last meeting was present, with the ex-
ception of T, 1. Raymond. who was
slightly i disposed yesterday. and W.S.
Sturtevan who was otherwise engag-
ed. Christian Swartz, Stephen S.
Hatch and Capt Frank D Layton were
the members of the committee In at
tendance. The Company wants a $10,-
000 building for factory purposes and
810.000 capital, they having received
such an offer from out of town parties.
The committee desired to meet as
many of the business men as possible
and see what attitude they felt like
taking before proceeding to make a
canvass, .A number of plans were dis-
cussed for raising the $20.000 neces-
sary and the sentiment of those pres-
ent, about twenty In number, was to
try and keep the McKiben Company
here.
The plan which seemed most feasible
was ‘to get. forty persons who would
give $500 for the erection of a suitable
factory building and furnishing the
capital. The realty of the company and
the building when completed would be
security for the money. If this found
can be raised, It. is proposed to erect
a modern factory building. up-todate
in every way. A number of properties
which could be secured at present
were said by Mr. McKlbbln not to be
well adapted for his purposes.
The outlook from the meeting last
evening was encouraging.

phed that he started for New London.

occupy the nightly location on the
brow of the hill back of the present

Six Rod Bankers Made the Voyage
From Saugatuck to New Jersey
In Remarkable Time.
Tuesday morning a party of six Red
Bank mariners boarded a Pennsylvania
train for New York. where they took
another train for Saugatuck. which
the map of New England states Is In
Connecticut, Those present were Eu-
sley Morris, William N. Worthley. Ed-
ward Fraser. Harry D. Curtis, J. W.
Cornuwoll and his son, “Jake. the sec-
ond." They went after Mr. Curtis‘s
new twenty- one footer built there by
the Toquet Boat and Motor Company.
Saugatuck Is alleged to be distant
from Red Bank about a hundred miles
by water. being some seventy miles
up the Sound from Gotham. The Red
Bankers reached there Tuesday after-
noon and at once inspected their boats.
but there was "nothing doing" and it
was announced that the start could
not be made until Wednesday morning.
The boats were not quite ready for sea.
After spending Tuesday night in
Bridgeport, the mariners got off for
Red Bank at ten o’clock Wednesday
morning. with most threatening
weather conditions. Later In the‘day
It commenced to rain and the Red
Bankers got theirs. By chart and com-
pass. through a dense log the undaunt-
ed sailors kept on their way down
the Sound. reaching Astoria at about
9 o’clock In the evening. where they
dined. The trip was resumed an hour
later. but had to be given up at mid-
nlght, on account of the weather. The
night was spent at Bay Ridge. '
At 10 o'clock Thursday morning
the voyage was resumed. the boats
reaching Red Bank at 2:30 o’clock in
the afternoon, after a delightful trip
across the bay and up the Shrewsbury.
Mr. Curtis was accompanied In his
boat by the Messrs. Cornwell. the
other members of the party being In
Mr. Morris's boat. The launches are
very much alike and both have live
horse power motors In thin The:
demonstrated excellent on lug dual
ties on the trip and. when tried, devel-
oped unexpected speed. Their engines
worked perfectly and there was not the
least trouble with them during the
trip.~The Standard, Redbank, N. J.
