Creditor.
Attorneys Suns nnd Sounders , who appear
for n number of eastern creditors of the firm
of H. Klsemnn & Uo. , have jumped upon the
neck of L. Otitmhelmcr , the clUhliig mer
chant who tried to move his stock to Halt
Lake , and propose to show blm that n court
cannot bo monKcyed with with Impunity.
It is charged that n number of
circumstances In connection with the
removal tend to1 show that Ottenheimor
was undoubtedly Intending to place his
property beyond the roach of his creditors ,
and thereof tbo Klsotnans. The goods were
packed up in an evident hurry , nil day
Sunday being occupied in the work of
preparation , and were moved from the store
at i o'cloclc Monday mornlnir. The express
man who moved them wan made to promise
that ho would say nothing about It to any
one. The goods were taken to Omaha ,
where they were loaded on the cars and con
signed to Joseph Simon of Salt LaUc , U. T. ,
half- over llio Union Pucllic , and half over
the B. & M. Who Joseph Simon Is is n
matter of conjecture , and an attempt will
bn made to solve the problem when the case
comes to trial.
This morning. rudno Smith will hear the
question of appointing n receiver to take
charge of the tliuu : which Ottenheimer
claims to have In his possession. In the
afternoon Oltenheimer will bo brought be
fore the court to show why ho should not bo
lined for contempt of court , ho being at liirco
nt present on bonds of f 1,1)00 ) which were fur
nished by Ueoi go Scbindele. Tno contempt
is alleged to consist in his moving ills prop
erty by stoaltb out of the state while n suit
was already pending to subject It to the
claims of lilseimin's creditors.

-An amended petition was
trict court yesterday in the cuso of Arnold ,
Constable & Uo. and others against II. Else-
man & Co. and others , making the Union Pa-
cilic Railway company , over whoso line the
goods are now beniR shipped to their western
destination , a defendant in tbo case. An
olTort will bo made In this way to secure the
goods so that they may bo levied upon by
the creditors.
In flic case of John Annlsilcld & Co.
against L. Ottonhoimer and others , which
has been pondinir for some time past , a default -
fault was entered up against Ottenheimer
yesterday for the sum of $ y,70t.Jo ; ! and n
special lion granted on the stock. Shorift
O'Neill was appointed receiver and an order
was Issued bv the court that the stock now
held by the Union Pacific bo delivered to
him , to lie held subject to this lien.
T. C. Dnwson , who appears as attorney for
Ottenholmer , claims that his client's actions
wore not in contempt of tno court , but re
sulted from a fear tnat the precious all-wool
pants would bo taken away by the creditors
as .soon as tliey learned that ho had decided
to soil them. Whether this is the correct
statement , will probnbiy appear when the
case is aired in court.

SAN FiuNCHi-o , Cal. , DJC. ffil. Correspon
dence of the A.ssoclated press from Hantingo ,
Chili , under date of November 21 , says the
feeling against Americans Is so strong that
ever since the congressional party came Into
power , jho majority are-disposed to regard
the Id 11 Inn of a few American sailors as a
very trilling affair , and oxprois much sur-
nrlso that tlm United States should have
taken ofllciul notice of a mnttor which they
ppcak of lightly as a sailors' light. Reports
of the Intondento of Valparaiso says there
were S.OOO men engaged In this "sailors' "
tight. Ho gives UiU figure to show that tha
police wore poworlnjs to quell the disturb
ance. The correspondent says :
'
' "As n tnnttnr of fact there' was not any
where near half that number und the police
found ample opportunity to stop the trouble.
For some tlmo following the attack there
wns a strong feeling among the crew of the
Baltimore , and the men would hnvo lined to
have sent another party aslioro bettor
equipped. Of the thirty-six American sail
ors arrested nt the time of the lighting , not
ono had n weapon moro formidable than a
sailor's Jackknifo. "
The correspondent says that President
Montt has given no special indication of any
sympathy with the general ill feeling in
Chill against the United States. In u recent
interview with the Associated correspondent
ho expressed a hope that all the .dinicultlcs
would ha settled amicably , as ho did not bs-
liovo ttic people of either nation desired
trouble. He also expressed disapproval of
the accusations and insinuations made
against the American minister by certain
Chilians In the United States , prufo33lng to
speak for the Chilian government.

tuted liy n Italtlmori ; Man.
BALTIMORE , Aid. , Dec , 23. Divorce pro-
cccdinus out of the usual line were insti
tuted in the circuit court today by Andrew
J. Bowers. Mr. Bowers is a native of Richmond
mend , Vn. Ho asks the court to annul a
marriage ceremony performed between him
and Emma A. Bigelow , on the ground that
at the time lie was already married. Ho
claims in his bill of complaint that bo had
to marry Miss Uigclow or bo murdered , and
that the fact that ho had a wife at the time ,
was known to Miss Bigelow and her fnmih' .
The bill alleges that on Tuesday last , while
standing nt Culvert and Lomunrd streets , Mr.
Bowers was approached by the father and
brother of Miss Bicolow , who compelled him
at the point of n pistol to enter u carriage
with them. They were driven to the house
of the Bigelows , wlioro Mr. Bowers was
placed in a room. The older Bigelow kept
guard with a pistol , It is claimed , while his
son procured u marriage license for Mr.
Bowers and Miss Bigolow and n minister to
perform the ceremony. The record of the
court ot coinrndn pleas shows that on the 2d
of Juno last n license was issued for the mar-
riaeu of Andrew J. Bowers , aged 21 , and
Miss Bcrtna Roop , need 20. Last Tuesday a
license was issued for tbo marriage of An
drew J. Bowers , aged 23 , and Miss Emma A.
Bigelow , ag-d 21. No return to either li
cense has been nmuo bv the minister.

Uimior.s That They Will Book to Have
till ) Duty on Tin Itn'iHC 1.
ST. Louis , Mo. , Dec. 23. An afternoon
paper prints n long article to the olTect that
the mooting of the Tinned Plato Manufac
turers association , which is to bo hold in
January , wns called /or the purpose of pre
paring a bill to bo presented to congress in
creasing the import duty on tin 1 cent per
pound. It is alleged that us the tariff now
stands tha duty is Insufficient to afford ade
quate protection , as it leaves an opening for
old established tinned pinto factories in the
old world to deluge the American market nt
a tlmo when such nction would bo decidedly
detrimental to the industry.
AVn'jntit Sent.
Toro wns just ono vacant scat in the
street cur und two women etuno hurry-
intf n ml bustling in together and stood
before the unoccupied scat , says the
Detroit Free Press.
"You sit down , " said ono of the ladles
generously , waving her hand toward the
seat.
"Oh , no ; you take it. "
"No , I'd rather stand. "
"So would I. "
"Oh. take it. I've been sitting nearly
all day. "
'
"So'havol. "
"Hut I really don't care to sit. "
"But I don't mind ( standing in the
least. "
"Neither do I. Indeed , I often nrofm'
to stand. ' '
"But you look tired. "
"Oh , I'm not a bit. Now you sit
down. "
"No , you. "
"No , no , you. I got off first. "
"Then you ought to sit down now and
I'll tiiKo the seat afterward. "
'But I really don't euro for it. "
' 'Neither do I. "
"Please take it , "
Tills goes on until both women try to
sit down at the snmo time and ono of
them fills in the lap of the weary looking
young man who jumps up and goes out
and stands on the platform , thus making
room/or both women and the torment
ing dialogue comes to an end.
