THE VOLK HAT CO.
President Swartz Guarantees the Pro-
for-red Stock.
Editor South Norwalk Sentinel:
The citizens of South Norwaik have.
usually been very liberal in subscribing
for factories to locate in our city. The
same liberality should prevail In sub-
scribing for The Volk Hat Company's
preferred stock.
The. opinion formed that the batting
business was not a profitable one, and
that the hat manufacturers in this dis-
trict have been discriminated against
by more liberal prices allowed in other
districts. is probably trite In the mak-
ing of cheap hats, and in .the making
of fine hats was partially true a few
years ago. but the workingmen In the
trade have realized these conditions.
and 1 how been informed by some of
the head men in the trade that they
have been. and are now. striving to
have. a uniform bill of prices passed
to govern all districts on the different
grades of hats manufactured. in the
making of fine hats. which the Volk
Hat Company manufacture exclusive-
ly. these conditions are not so appar-
ent.
For the. past year we have had a bet-
ter trade on our hats. and our factory
is now flooded with orders. Consider-
ing these conditions the preferred stock
offered by The Volk Hat Company is a
safe investment. especially so as it is
protected by an equity-ms per report
of the comlttee—«if 818,000, which
cost us over “0,000.
i feel so confident that this stock III
a safe investment that I will personal-
ly guarantee the investments in the
preferred stock for a period of two
years. If. at the end of that time. it
should be determined that the busi-
nesss is not a profitable one. and it is
voted to close out the business, no
loss can secure to the preferred stock-
holders.

proceed thence to Subig Day, it being
desired that the American navy shall
observe "good sea manners" by not

just now.
Representative Slayden. (Hana. Tex-

House today. requesting the President}
to tender the good offices of mediation‘
of the United States to Russia and Jap-
an. The resolution follows:
"Whereas. By the provision of The

regarded as an unfriendly act; and
"Whereas, H‘said convention. it in

LONDON. .lan. 8.—l2:25 p. m.-—The
.cxt of the Russian reply toJapan'a
int-t. note has been received at the Jap-
anese legation here. it M” be pre-
sented to the Foreign Uflice later in
.he day by Minister llayashl.
At the legatlon, the opinion is held
hill the reply is utterly opposed to the
main Japanese contentions nd it is
thought that negotiations wli be brok-
en oif. .
"After reading the reply. all I can
say is that hope for a peaceful set-
tlement is growing less and less. Con-
ditions are very grave." Japan has de-
cided not to buy the Chilean warships
for which negotiation had been started.
At the legation it is said that the
ships bought recently from Argentine
are expected to sail today for the Far
East by the way of the Suez Canal.
The Russian ambassador. Count
Benckendorf, and the Japanese minis~
ter. Baron Hayashi. visited the Foreign
Office this afternoon and had half hour
conferences with Lord Lansdowne, to
whom the text of the Russian reply to
Japan was communicated.
