DENIES Hin PETITION FOR k RECEIVER

Michigan City Judge Refuses

to Grant Hitt Application Against DrusillaCarr UICEIOAN CITT. April 25. Norman Wolfe, special Judge of the Superior court, late Saturday afternoon overruled the application of Kora M. B. Kltt and others for the

S appointment of a receiver of the

so-called Carr land on Miller beach, near Oary. Mrs. Druillla Carr was defendant la the action In court Saturday. The plaintiffs hold record title and have Ions paid the taxes on the land, and Mrs. Carr claims "the property by squatter's sovereignty, dating back to 1872. Notwithstanding litigation over a period of nearly a score of years, rljhts to the land are not yet definitely settled In court. APMJCATIOX FOB (RECEIVER Application for receivership was based on the allegation that the income from the land Is beingr absorbed by Mrs. Carr and that because she is financially irresponsible the money she is receiving: could not b collected from her if title to the property should be finally awarded to the plaintiffs. It was stated hat Mrs. Carr is receiving an Income of 110.000 a year from the land through leases to scores of cottage owners and amusement and refreshment concessions. Betides, stated the petitioners, she had failed to pay the taxes and the land had been bought up by tax titles. In her affidavit replying to the petition. Mrs. Carr alleged that she was not a party to an action tried In Lake county years ago and that the land on which the plaintiffs were trying to assert rights was worth a million dollars. HISTORY OF CASH In 1903, Hitt and others brought ruit in Lake county to quiet title to the land in their name. Mrs. Carr was made party defendant, but unSer the name of Kosela Carr. Judgment was re-idered for the plaintiffs, but Mrs. Carr set up the plea that she had never been served with summons, and the paper showing that she had been summoned a. a RoselaTarr was not found until

years later. So. in 1912. Mrs. Carr I

sued to quiet title to the land in her name and she received a verdict and Judgment in the Super cr rourt here. Tho Ilitls appealed and the hitcher tcuit ruled that Mrs. Carr could not take refuge beh'nl the plea thf.t she had not been served with summons. So the case comes back to tho lower .court for re-trlal. The case in which a hearing was held Saturday was filed to prevent Mrs. Carr from receiving any of the benefits from the decree renderei ! her favor hete urtil title to the 'rd is deflnit.Mv settled.

(Bl: I.LETl N ) INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE ROME, April -5. -The pruoabie v.o.i o r.f inriid cordiality be

tween the Vatican and the Russian soviet government was worked out last Sunday in a converatlon between the Archbishop of Genoa and M. Tchitcherin. leader of the Russian delegation to tho Genoa conference, it was learned today. The conversation took place during the luncheon served by King Victor Emmanuel to the conference delegates. By S. B. WETKR STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE (Copyright 1922. by International News Service.) GENOA. April 25. Russia demands from the allies a five billion gold ruble loan and a thirty year moratorium. These facts are obtained from the text of a tentative draft of the treaty submitted by the Russian delegation 1 o the Genoa conference committee of experts on Russian affairs last night. The document, obtained exclusively by the International News Service today, was the subject of hours of wrangling by the experts last night, resulting finally in such divergences of opinion that the experts adojurned. It contains In de

tail the terms exclusively announced by the International News last Thursday: 1 Soviet to pay pre-war Crarist debts to foreign governments and individuals. 2 Soviet to receive de jure recognition as the government of Russia. 3 Interest on debts to be annulled. The breakup of last night's meeting, caused by these terms, has led to rumors that they may call forth an allied ultimatum to Russia. Until the conditions are more fully analyzed this rumor should be accepted with reserve since the Russian treaty contains sweeping concessions. The document makes no mention of war-time Russian debts, which the Soviet claims do not exist, or have been written off.
