THE OUTING PUBLISHING COMPANY 35 and 37 West 31st Street, KewYork Union Computing Machine Company ENLARGES ITS FACTORY. WIXS SHT FROM NATIONAL CASH REGISTER CO. Handsome Hartford Office. The Trenton papers and the trade Journals are rejoicing over the fact that the Union Computing Machine manufacturers of "Union" Cash Registers, have lust completed their model factory and are occupying it this month. The Trenton press welcomes the growth of this active manufacturing concern and rejoices in its big future, and Is pleased to have the company decide to remain in the city where it has done business so successfully for fifteen years.

It Is an open secret that Hartford came near getting this industry about a year ago when representatives of the Co. came to this city and looked at sites both here and in Manchester. It was finally decided, however, to build in Trenton. The Union Co. manufacturers Cash Registers under patents which it has owned lor years and recently won a suit against the National Cash Register Co.

of Dayton, Ohio. Judge Cross of the United States District Court; at Trenton, said that by reason of its unlaue meth od of operation, different from any other machines, the "Union" infringed no other register. The Company is the originator or registers of the style manufactured bv them and are the origin ators of total ading cash registers for wnicn tney were awaraeq tne Jonn Kcott Legacy Medal, by the Franklin Institute of Philadelphia. This award Is a coveted honor among manufacturers of this country. Frederick Lincoln Fuller is tho Inventor of the Co.

and has spent his lire at invention worn for this concern. He was formerly a Norwich man. The President Is Rush Taggart, of New York City and the General Manager Is Thorn as F. Hammond, famous as a typewriter manufacturer. The Co.

aims only to manufacture very high grade registers and is doing a very large foreign business, particularly In Latin-American countries where they have special repre sentatlves. The local representative Is R. P. Kenyon and the Co. has handsome offices and a window exhibit at 105 Asylum street.

The registers are used by prominent Con nectlcut merchants who have bought them from Mr. Kenyon and who have given them evere tests in their stores. (the only practical test! and report that tney are greatly pleased. they are telling their brother merchants that these satisfactory machines only cost them about half the price that any other machine would have cost them which would produce the same results.

a To to as the in of of MUCH INTEREST AMONG STATE'S MILITIAMEN. WORDS OF PRAISE FROM THE RATIONAL CAPITAL. "Army and avy Register" Call. Attention to the Efforts Being; Made In Connecticut to Perfect Military Men In This Line. The current issue of the "Army and Navy Register," published at the national capital, has the following to say regarding Connecticut National Guard plans and prospects as to rifle shooting: Never before In the history of the state of Connecticut has there been such in terest manifested among the military rifle shooters.

The indoor facilities at the Second Regiment Armory In New Haven have been quadrupled during the latter part of January and now four men can shoot simultaneously. The range is fully occupied every evening and many more would be shooting if the facilities were greater, some new good men are bobbing up and the oldtimers will have to work hard to keeD In the lead. Ma jor John Q. Tllson, second regiment, in- tantry, nas offered stiver cups for pmes for Indoor rifle matches and the neces sary arrangements will be made for holding the contests. The "Tllson Match" is of the greatest importance and Interest at the present time.

The conditions are such that the expert shots cannot be bunched in one team, one expert only can be in one team, thus new men are brought to the front to be instructed and to practice with the experienced men, and the results are showing the wisdom of this arrangement, which we commend to the attention of others. After the "Tllson Match" there will be the match for the cup given by Company of which Edward O. Gruener is captain. This will be for rapid fire only. The first night of the tournament was very ragged, as all were new and some what nervy and noisy; the next night was a decided improvement and things woraea mucn smootner.

Officers and men were getting on to their lobs. Ev eryone recognizes the fact that It is an education and the results will be for last ing good. For indoor shooting the Ideal bullet No. 308.257, 110 grains, and bullet No. 308,241, 154 grains, are used with a charge of seven grains of Laflin Rand marksman powder.

The latter bullet will permit ot ranid nre Draotice and for that reason is preferred "to bullet No. 308.257. With this ammunition the possibles are being made frequently in The distance shot at the Second Regiment range is seventy-eight yards reduced target. The ether ranges in the state are shorter. Captain Conner of New Lon don reports that has loaded over 000 rounds now and the Second Regiment will use about the same.

Those who are making the ammunition are now loading for outdoor use in the coming season. This ammunition will be made up with the Frankford shells loaded with twentv-three grains weight of Laflin Rand lightning powder and the Ideal bullet No. 308,284, 207 grains, with metal gas cnecK cup. ine Duliets. powder and non-msrcurlc primers for 200,000 rounds-, pur chased from the Ideal Manufacturing company.

These bullets are seated In the shell deep enough to lust cover the second groove from the base. The people of Connecticut recognize the fact that their interests in the military line are well tanen care or Dy Adjutant (leneral Cole who Is ever on the lookout to get the most ano Dest posstole for the expend! tures made.

This, as soon as seen by General Cole, was purchased and the state has secured a valuable piece of ground that Is perfectly adapt ed for the uses of a state range. Thpre Is a high hill or mountain directly behind the butts and there Is ample room for all the targets that mav be required for 200, 300.

There is a running spring of pure water of sufficient quantity for drinking and cooKtng purposes that rises at an am tude from which the whole camp fan be supplied by simply piping it a very short distance and there is a fine stream of water running through the property that may be utilized for washing and bathing purposes and all of this located within a mile from the boundary line of the rlty of New Haven, which Is the largest city in the state. This range is expected to be completed readv for use this soring.

Connecticut, therefore, Is getting ready and good work may bo expected from her enthusiastic militiamen the coming season. Rank Clearings.

due twenty-seven depositors who could not be found, all the other depositors having been paid in full. This reduces the number of savings banks to eighty-nine instead of ninety as reported December 31, 1904. The Stonington Savings Bank and the Thompson Savings Bank of Putnam are paying out, under the orders of the court, all their available funds. It has been found necessary to continue the restraining order for another year In each case. On March 22, 1905, the restraining order issued- to the Watertown Savings Bank was continued for six months al lowing the payment of 75 per cent, to its depositors.

At the end of this period the bank paid its depositors in full and still had remaining sufficient assets to call for a receiver to settle Its affairs. The affairs of the People's Savings Bank of Pawcatuck are still In the hands of the receiver, Mr. Alfred Colt of New London. State Banks and Trust Companies. The number of the state banks remains the same with the same amount of capital.

The number of the trust companies has been Increased by the addition of the Manchester Trust and Safe Deposit Company, South Manchester, which commenced business February 20th, 1905, and the Seymour Trust Company, which commenced business July 1, 1905. each with a capital of $50,000. Five reports were called for during the year showing their condition at the close of business on November 10. 1H04, January 11, March 14, May 29. and August 25, 1905.

An abstract of these reports follows the statements of the banks and trust companies. Nine trust companies solicit deposits for their savings departments which show, by the following statements, a total amount of $4,292,415.54.

A Cau of It Cannes Scare at Hartford Wire Works Office. An alarm was rung In from Box 124, at the corner of Ford and Asylum streets, at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, but the firemen, on their arrival, tound their services wera not needed, the scare coming from a can of Japan which had Ignited in the basement of the office of the Hartford Wire Works, at No. 26 High street. An employee was filling a pail from a barrel of the Japan placed in a vault and through some carelessness with a cigar or a match, apparently caused the blaze. A few screens near by were scorched, but the damage was practically nothing.

Petition In Bankraptry. Bradford Yale of Norwalk filed a petition In bankruptcy in the United States district court yesterday, declaring his liabilities to be $2,081.94 and his assets $1,101. for the public from 10 until 6. This is the first time in the history of "New Photoguphy" that the women photographers have been invited to hold an exhibition exclusively of their own work. The invitations were Is- ued about three weeks ago, and thirty two photographers responded.

-The exhibition includes the work of many of the photographic salon prize pic- tuves and represents workers from all 1 parts of the United States. There are about 200 prints of landscape, figure and portraiture. One of the best exhibits is the work of Miss Jessie Tarbox Beals of New York. She is represented by several scenes In Japan and two excellent portraits, one of Mark Twain and the other of Albert Herter. Mark Twain Is taken in profile against a very strong light, and makes a very interesting silhouette as he sits at his desk.

Albert Herter is the typical artUt in corduroy trousers, and a loose, blousy shirt thrown' open at the neck, and taken against a background of old Japanese prints. Another exhibition that conies from New York is that of Miss Alice Bough-ton, who is represented by a portrait of Edith Wynn Matthews taken In her role of "Everyman," and a portrait of Henry Jamea. Miss Boughton also exhibits two interesting nude studies taken in the opeii air. The first is made by a process known as the "gum print," and is entitled "The Lost Soul." It depicts a nude female figure groping her way up the side of a rock on the edge of a deep abyss. The other Is of a nude figure seated on the side of a bank with her hair blown over her lace, with one foot stretched down toward the water, and is entitled "The "Bathing Pool." A study head of a woman with a forlorn expression an.1 her head covered with a hood of a golf cape is entitled "The Inevitable." From a little studio called "Ye Pic ture Shoppe" that nestles in the hills of St.
