Bryan Grimes, Secretary of State of the State of North Carolina do hereby certify that the said corporation did, on the 12 day of May, 1908, He in my office a duly executed and attested consent in writing to the dissolution of said corporation, -executed by the stockholders thereof, which said consent and the record of tjhe proceedings aforesaid are now on file in my said office, as provided by law. In testimony wheriirf- I hav Insurance' Adjustment Causes Rather Bad Tangle. There" will be no sale of the Odell Mills, in Concord, to-morrow, the date originally set for the sale of the property for the benefit, of the creditors. A very interesting and complicated situation has developed from -th claims of the insurance people. The situation as it now exists is as to the fire a syndicate guaranteed the creditors all their indebtedness in full and interest, and that syndicate, in addition thereto was to expend a sum approximately of $200,000 to put the mills in good working condition.

The creditors were to receive 15-year 6 per cent bonds for their indebtedness. It now transpires that the insurance on the burned mill, No. 4, carried by the Odell Company, was The insurance companies now claim that the amount insured was not sufficient, as under the insurance clause, mill was required to insure 90 per cent of the value, and' the insurance people say that the value of mill No. 4 was $400,000. Hence, they claim that the Odell Mills were co-insurers to the extent of the amount insured less than 00 per cent of its value.

There was a meeting in Greensboro last week of the creditors and of the syndicate, at which the creditors made the following proposition to the syndicate, viz: That the creditors, get the insurance money and bonds for the remainder of their indebtedness, to jwhich the syndicate demurred, claiming their original contract with the creditors, i. they giv them bonds for the whole amount of their indebtedness. Or, in other words, that the syndicate was entitled to the insurance money. The meeting then adjourned, and (the creditors called a creditors' meeting for the 24th of this month. In the meantime, the sale of the mill, which was advertised for the 16th had to be postponed until the adjustment of the fire loss, and, perhaps a new deal between the syndicate, and the creditors.

It is of interest to know that in Burning 01 rne nrst or ino At. 1 1 1 Odell mills, a few weeks before committed to jatl in default ot a $1,500 -bond pending a hearing next Saturday afternoon before Justice D.

A FRIEND. HUGHES WINS YORK. IN NEW Saratoga, N.

Sept. 15. Charles Evans Hughes, of New York, was nominated to-day by the' Republican State convention by 'an overwhelming majority andon the first ballot, to succeed-himeelf as Governor of the State of New Yorw. He-received 827 votes out of a possible 1,000, against 151 for James W. Wads- worth, of Livingston county, Speaker of the State Assembly, and 31 for former Conigressman John K.

Stewart, of Montgomery. The nomination was made tin-animous upon motion of State Committeeman William Barnes, of Albany, who been perhaps the bitterest and most outspoken opponent of the Go ernorV renomination. The Governor's renomination followed the utter failure of a desperate struggle on the part of a number of the county who -for four days -have spared no to discover a candidate upon whom they could unite to defeat himvv r- The balance oj the. ticket was made as an organization "slate, announced an hour or: more be- fore the session of the convention began, by 'Timothy L.

The claim of the insurance people that the property was undervalued is also of interest. "They say in addition to what we have related that even the smokestack of the mill should have been insured.

We must have the High Point Fair ready to open next fall. The Enterprise said a great deal about the project last fall, but we all got busy with the panic and other things and the matter went over.

The conditions here would insure the best larr in North Carolina as far as exhib.
