counts of A. D. Coe, of Cleveland, O.,
whose assignment was announced last week,
is now being taken by Mrs. Muhlhauser,
the assignee. No definite statement as to
the condition of the business can be made
until this matter is disposed of. The chief
creditors are Smith & Nixon, Colby Piano
Co., Gildemeester& Kroeger, C. Kurtzman

amounts due the Steinway house and one
or two others range in the one thousands.
The local banks and R. M. Loud, who
loaned Mr. Coe $4,000, are secured by
ample collateral, which will no doubt help
to tie up the assets for some time. It is

TENNIE LEE, alias Josephine Lange,
^J who is described "as a vivacious and
pretty widow of the brunette type," was
arrested in Jersey City last Saturday on
charges of grand larceny preferred by Cal-
vin L. Weser, of Weser Bros., piano manu-
facturers, 524 West Forty-third street. His
complaint is that the woman rented two
pianos from him, and afterward sold them
and disappeared. She formerly lived at
409 East 101st street, this city, and, it is
said, has swindled Brewer Ehret out of
$5,000, also several furniture houses.
The Hackley Piano.
T
HE attention of our readers is directed
to the full page advertisement of the
Chase Bros. Piano Co., Muskegon, Mich.,
on another page of this issue. The new
Hackley piano which they manufacture, al-
though sold at a reasonable- price, is not in
any sense of the word a lew grade, but a
first-class instrument, made of excellent
materials, carefully constructed, and pos-
sessing a tone quality which is remarkably
fine, and a design which pleases. It is not
surprising to learn that this house is meeting
with a splendid demand for these instru-
ments—such a pronounced demand that
they are behind in filling orders.
An Explanation.
T
HE Washington, N. J., Star publishes
the following in reference to the ar-
rest of F. A. Vincent, of Cornish & Co.,
which was announced in last week's RE-
VIEW :
"Owing to the malevolence of a former
shipping agent in the employ of Cornish &
Co., Mr. F. A. Vincent was the subject of a
very unpleasant incident on Sunday last.
He was arrested on a frivolous charge, and
owing to the fact that it was Sunday, and
he could not get the required bail, he had
to suffer the temporary inconvenience of
being detained in custody in Ludlow Street
Prison. He was, of course, released when
the Magistrate heard the explanation of the
charge, with many expressions of regret."

PRINCIPAL SECURED
The redemption of this stock is assured and se-
cured by real estate conveyed by deed of trust to
the INTERNATIONAL TRUST COMPANY, of
Boston, trustee.
The Petit-Manan Land and Industrial Co.
own the peninsula of PETIT MANAN. This
peninsula contains 2,565 acres of land, extends 7
miles into the Atlantic Ocean, enclosed and sur-
rounded by 22 miles of coast line, unsurpassed for
picturesque grandeur and beauty.
Authorized capital $2,500,000.

This property is situated 10 miles east of BAR
HARBOR and its unparalleled success as a sum-
mer resort is due in a measure to its close proxim-
ity to that famous resort; it is catching the over-
flow. Land at Bar Harbor ranges in prices from
$1 to $5 per square foot. Land at Petit Manan,
more desirable in every way, sells at from 10c.
to 25c. per foot. This land figured on an issue of
$1,000,000 of stock costs the stockholder ic. per
foot—the average price now is 12c. per foot.
20,000 shares only will be sold for improve-
ment this year, a large portion of which is already
placed. Those desiring to invest will do well to
institute inquiry at once.
Every opportunity afforded to investigate.
No investment shows greater returns than the
purchase of land by the acre and its sale by the
foot if there is sale for the land. The Petit Manan
Company can fully satisfy you on that point.
Stock bought now will carry the JUNE DIVIDEND.
Our Mr. O'Dell personally viewed this property
last month, and went into the matter very thor-
oughly, and his investigation satisfied us that the
Petit Manan investment was one we could recom-
mend to our customers. The property is a very
valuable one, perfectly adapted to the purposes
required; the management is in good hands, and
the above estimates of profit are, in our judgment
conservatively stated.
We recommend the purchase of these shares in
amounts desired. Full information can be had at
our office in person, or on application by mail.
Maps and blue prints can be seen at this office,
showing the peninsula in its entirety.
