TRANSFER BOND CASE TOM SEAL'S COURT

Emergency Set Up on Part of City*fr Eoyse States Bond Company's Case. i:-U

$ City Attorney George Wells and Attorney Charles Crawford appeared In Circuit Court yesterday afternoon and msked for a judgment In favor of Charles Mancourt, city controller. In the case of Breed, Elliott and Harri'»on against the controller. In which the Ibonding company Is seeking to mandate the controller to deliver $25,000 bonds to them instead of to the J. H. "Wild company, as ordered by the controller.

The attorneys were opposed by Attorney Samuel S. Royse. Royse stated the case to the court by saying the matter involved three points, the legality of the complaint, the question of accrued interest and the question of the scope of the discretion of the city controller with reference to the sale of the bonds.

Attorney Wells In his argument asked for an immediate Judgment for the defendant on-the grounds that this was most important, having bearing on the citizens In that the bonds were to be used for the purchase of Are equipment, and there was an emergency which made It necessary for the case to be disposed of. Li Change of Venue Taken.

After considerable argument, the court said he would take the matter In abeyance, and If possible according to law, to hold an adjourned term to take the matter up within the next freek ho would do so. He said he did not feel like giving judgment against the plaintiff until he had full opportunity to place his case before the court. The attorneys for the defendant then asked to have the case transferred to the Superior Court, which was granted. They made the change because yesterday being the last day of the present term of the Circuit Court, the matter will bo brought to the attention of the Superior Court early this week.

This is the first case transferred between the two courts since Ju&ge Pulllam ascended the bench and Is made possible by a recent law passed by tho legislature.

The case arose when City Controller Mancourt ordered $25,000 bonds sold to the Wild company for accrued Interest and a premium of $10*. The company also agreed to furnish the printed bonds. The other bid Was for accrued Interest and $164 premlurp, which the company says Is the highest bid. They claim the printing will not cost more than $30.

The plaintiff then brought In an amended complaint,' Whiteii was presented to the court last Thursday, With Judge Pulliam on the bench. The defense attorneys objected to the am,pndcomplaint on the grounds that It stated no new grounds or causes for action. They were sustained by the pourt.

WASHINGTON WAITS MOVE.

Prepared to Prevent Any Violation of U. S. Neutrality. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 26 State, treasury and wqr department officials took definite confirmation of reports that General Huerta was on his way to El Paso cooly tonight.

They would not talk but It was evident that all plans had been made for enforcing neutrality on the border. That there would be nothing done until it was certain an overt act was planned was understood, however.

Inasmuch as the treasury is the department directly charged with neutrality enforcement, it was believed its customs agents would do the preliminary investigating, calling on the troops if assistance should be needed.

The government apparently planned to shape its course in accordance with developments.

Washington friends of Huerta said a wrong interpretation had been placed on his movements—that really he was going to the San Francisco exposition. Members of the Car ran ea and Villa Juntas asserted, however, that If San Francisco were his destination. It was unlikely he would have chosen the southern route, on whioh he would run unnecessary risks of assassination.

So alarmed were the viiiistas that

they formally demanded of the state department that steps be taken to hold -up an expedition they claimed was on its way to the border. "Armed mercenories are about to violate Mexico's Integrity," was their claim.

Carranzlalstas declared Huerta seeked to gain possession of the Villa army, through defections of Villa's assistants, and then to rehabilitate hUnself as the "Iron Man*' for whom President Wilson has been waiting.

No responsible official would discuss wha tsteps were being taken. Despite this, It was learned that General Funston, commanding on the border, and treasury department representatives in the customs serkvice, which Is oharged with maintaining neutrality, are ready to prevent irresponsible persons from seizing the governmental rein south of the Bio Grande. If Huerta has volunteered as the "Strong Man of Mexico," it was considered certain tonight that he is the one Individual that President Wilson positively will refuse to deal with.
