RECEIVER ASKED FOR SHOE STORE Simmons Shoe Company Files

Action Aaains1HUit Shoe Jmpany, WILL CONuEST THI COUNSEL FOR THE. DEFENDANT COMPANY AVERS THAT THE TROUBLES CAN BE SETTLED WITHOUT DIFFICULTY. Application for the appointment of a receiver for the Mount Shoe Company was made in a suit instituted against the company in circuit ' court today. The Simmons Shoe company of Tole do, Ohio, appears as the plaintiff. The plaintiff alleges to have a claim for goods sold the defendant, which re main unpaid for and asks the collec tion of $2,000. The suit was entered by Robbins & Robbins. The shoe company has retained William B. Kel ley to defend It. Mr. Keiley stated today the matter can be settled amic ably and that be will contest the appointment, of a receiver on the ground such action would he entirely unnecessary. v Charges Incompetence. It is alleged the management of the company has been inefficient and that the business la wholly insolvent or iu imminent danger of insolvency. It is charged the business management has been neglected; exorbitant salaries have been paid persons in charge and that a receiver should be appointed to protect the interests of the plaintiff. The complaint asks that the receiver take charge and wind up the business. The Mount Shoe company occupies the room at 529 Main street. It was organized and incorporated only a few months ago and succeeded J. Will Mount and Son, successors to the Cunningham Shoe company. J. Will Mount and his son Paul Mount have been the active managers. Paul Mount left the company a short time ago, and since then J. Will Mount has been in complete control. He has been looking after the business, doing the buying and attending to all the important affairs of the business. Troubles of Company. Counsel for the company said today, there is every reason to have confidence in the ability of J. Will Mount who has had many years experience in the shoe business. The troubles of the company are attributed to ill advised methods on the part of Paul Mount. It is claimed young Mount bought more goodj than the demands of the trade justify. He is said to have purchased an unusually heavy supply of summer shoes and that owing to weather conditions sales have been slow. It was expected that the goods could be sold in time to meet the payment for them to the manufacturers. The plaintiff complains against the defendant as the outcome of a- sale made February 13. Shoes to the val ue of $1,852.15 were purchased at that time. The attorney for the defense claims this bill has been met in part and that the remaining obligation can be canceled. The attorney says the Suit is uncalled for and precipitated by an unwarranted cause. Seme Light Left. There was once a man who sat In that seat ef the mighty the mayor ef Sc.

A touch of old-time frontier life has been given this section of California by a raid upon the provisions and stock of settlers along Deer Creek canyon by the Mill Creek Indianas, a semi-savage remnant of a once hostile tribe. The winter supply camp of John Morris, a cattle man, midway between Deer and Mill Creeks, was Invaded and a large amount of provisions were carried off. Many sheep were killed. The band has been, trailed through 'the canyon and evidently has made its way to safety among the mountains, where the Indians are known to have numerous hiding places. Stampede Cattle. : For many years these redskins at intervals have made descents upon the winter camps of cattle and sheep ranches and have subsisted in the winters largely upon what they have been able to steal. ; : The mysterious stealth of these raids has exasperated the white settlers, who declare they are further Incensed by the dilatoriness of , the United States government.

EXPECT AN ARREST TODAY GIRL INTHE CASE FIGURED PROMINENTLY SHORT TIME AGO BY RUNNING AWAY FROM HER HOME IN NEW YORK. New York, May 12. Central Office detectives are today on the trail of blackmailers who have threatened the abduction of Adele Boas, the school girl who recently ran away : from home and Was found after a $5,000 reward had been offered for her. According to Lieut. Funston an arrest is likely to be made in the case today.. For some time past it was learned Arthur E. Boas, the girl's father, haa been receiving threatening letters. The writer demanded $10,000, threatening to kidnap the girl unless he paid the money, Mr. Boas at first thought the letters were written by cranks, but whan the demands became more threatening he communicated with the police. " ' A Decoy Package. Acting under the direction of live detectives, Mr. Boas, who is wealthy, placed a decoy package under a bouldV er in Crotona Park aa he had been instructed by the blackmailers. Three children, returning (ram school, saw him digging under the rock and it was their curiosity, the police claim, that was responsible for the failure of their attempt to trap the blackmailers, as they poked under the rock when Boas left and were themselves arrested, but soon freed. .

Captain Hains stood up and faced the jury, squaring his shoulders, throwing them back in military. fashion, while Foreman Sundling recited the verdict. As he heard the decision of the jurors Hains's face was white as chalk. He stood .for a few moments motionless, staring at the Jury, after he heard the , verdict. Then one of his lawyers touched him, and he quietly sat down. A few moments later, apparently little affected by the verdict. ne waiaea irom tne courtroom with a steady stride, between his two lawyers, and was taken back to the Queen's county jail. . Parents to Be Pitied. In striking contrast to the demeanor of the prisoner was the grief of his aged father. General Peter C Hains, and his brother. Major, John Power Hains. For a moment they sat as if dased, then broke down and wept. The captain's aged mother, who was each a pitiful figure in court during the trial, was not in court, having returned to New York early in the afternoon. This precaution was taken both because of the uncertainty of the duration of the jury's deliberations and to shield her from the shock. General Hains, however, quickly communicated the verdict to her over the telephone. ' ' After the Jury was discharged' Juror
