The demands of progress have been 

 such that James Viek's Sons, of Roches- 

 ter, N. Y., have opened another store 

 at 36 Exchange street. This gives the 

 west side of the city the same facilities 

 that liave been offered east siders for 

 so many years in the store on Stone street.

 spondent of the American Seed Trade

 lias obtained from the governor of New 

 York a hearing on the seed bill intro- 

 duced by Senator Ferris, No. 751. Gov- 

 ernor Miller has granted the seedsmen

 jireliminary meeting will be held by

PEACOCK IN COURT'S HANDS. 



Banks Act to Equalize All Interests. 



An involuntary petition in bank- 

 rui)tcy was filed, March :28, in the 

 I'liited States District court for north- 

 ern Jliinois, against the Kverette R. Pea- 

 cock Co., of Chicago, and against Mr. 

 Peacock personally, Edwin Buell, 105 

 West Monroe street, being named by 

 .hidge George A. Carpenter as receiver 

 to continue the business until the cred- 

 itors elect a trustee. 



For about four weeks a committee of 

 creditors has been advising in the Pea- 

 cock affairs, its head being Harry T. 

 Ellis, former state bank examiner, novv 

 connected with the Belmont State Bank 

 of Chicago. The committee was at- 

 tem])ting to work out a plan to save 

 the business, but some of the creditors 

 would not join and recently suits had 

 been filed which might have resulted in 

 jireferring some of the unsecured cred- 

 itors. The result was that the banks 

 tlirew up their hands and caused the 

 jietition in bankruptcy to be filed. Al- 

 though the petitions are signed by indi- 

 viduals, it is understood these merely 

 represent banks. 



The petitioning creditors in the case 

 of Evcrette K. I'cacoek Co., and the 

 claims scheduled, are: R. A. Mann, 

 *1,U00; F. A. Blazek, ,$4,875; H. A. 

 Flecker, .$1,000, but on the petition, 

 which bears evidence of having been 

 hastily prepared, Mr. Flecker 's name is 

 written in where that of the Mechanics 

 ;ind Traders State Bank, ,$3,800, was 

 struck out. It is alleged that an act 

 of bankruptcy was committed in pay- 

 ments made to August Sass and the Gos 

 Lithographic Co. All the claims were 

 for money loaned and the notes are said 

 to have been endorsed by Mr. Peacock 

 ])ersonally. The attorney for the peti- 

 tioning creditors is Julian C. Ryer, 1422 

 First National Bank building. 



In the petition against Mr. Peacock 

 personally the creditors named, and 

 their claims, are: R. A. Mann, $5,-
