CHICAGO, Sept. T.-Tha appointment ot
a receiver for tha properties of tha Priding
Hall manufacturing company followed clot
upon a discovery by ths creditors of ths
concern that Its missing president. Jesse
Edson Hall, had appropriated to his own
vjps at lestft 1315.000 of ths corporation s
funds.
As far aa can be discovered every dollar
of this money went Into mining stock
which was barked up with no tangible
property, theatrical ventures which made
no money and other securities which tha
creditors are willing to sell In a lump for
something lass than M.0O0. Indications
yesterday were that Hall would not volun
tarily return from Canada and that crim
inal prosecution would be Instituted to
bring him back to, this country by tha
First National bank, which holds notes of
the company aggregating $100,000.
It appears that Mr. Hall has been "bor
rowing" the company's money for at least
two years. There has been little effort on
his part to conceal this fact. The money
taken out of the business was secured only
by promissory notes signed by Mr. Hall.
As he has no other property than the WO,
000 worth of Beldlng Hall stock, which Is
worthless until all outstanding bills are
paid. It is expected that the tSlS.000 which
he "borrowed" and the HO.OOO which he lent
to Irresponsible persons $3oo.00Q In all will
be a total loss. A pathetic feature of the
case is the condition of the missing man's
two children, who are living at the Hall
home In Wlnaeteka In charge of a house
keeper. Bines Mr. Hall left Chicago they
have received no word from him, neither
have they received any money with which
to meet household expenses.

Fire Does Considerable Damage at the
Dure Packing Plant.
ORIGIN OF THE BLAZE A MYSTERY
Mrs. Violet Hewitt Cannes a Lively
Scene In Effort to Secure Daughter
front Hone Where Father
r laced Her.
i A fire of brief duration, but expensive,
' broke out at an early hour yesterday
morning In the buildings of the Independ-
ent Packing company at Thirtieth and L
i streets. The fire was discovered bv the
I night fireman at about 2 a. m. He at once
turned In the Are alarm and all three de
partments responded promptly. The build
ing was a mere shell and burned with
. great rapidity from the rear , toward tho
front. By the time the flremen arrived It
looked as though the property would be
"r. totally lost. With three- streams of water,
however, the flamea were quickly under
, control and the machinery of the plant
waa saved without damage. The roof and
the second tloor were burned out at the
rear and will have to be replaced. The
greatest source of damage waa the taint
ing and smoking of forty carcasses of good
beef hanging In the coolers. Willi this
.... loss the company managers estimate that
the cost of the fire will reach $3,000 to
Jl.OOo, partly covered by Insurance. The
loss to the building can be replaced for
j about J500. The origin of the fire Is rather
mysterious. It began at the rear In the
second floor. The owners. Frank Beaton
and Henry ruve, are undecided whether
It was caused by an electric wire or waa
fired by some parties, as Is suspected of
several other recent fires.
During the progress of the fire one of
ths firemen, Leslie Shamblln, working on
the second floor, fell through to the first
4 floor of the building. He was slightly
shaken up. hut was otherwise uninjured.
. fbs plant will be repaired as soon as pos
sible. The company had Just expended
13,500, In Improvements.' A new engine ahd
cooling apparatus had lately been Installed.
The company will suffer considerably' by
the delay, for It had been slaughtering
about 100 steers per week. ' A number of
live cattle were. In the yards at the time,
but suffered no hurt from the fire.
Trouble Over a Child.
I
I The family affairs of Mr. and M,rs.
i Hewett, Thirty-seventh and Q streets,
reached a climax yesterday noon, when
' the mother attempted to secure possession
I of the oldest daughter and to compel 'her
' to come home from the family where the
J father had placed her. The child did not
1 .-ih in 4,-1 nor Hid the mother of the
family where she had been placed wish to
give her up. About noon yesterday tho two
women engaged In an altercation of such
violence that the police interfered and
brought both women and the girl to Jail
The little girl, neatly dressed, wept bitterly
as she related how her mother had abused
and mistreated her and the woman who
had taken her under protection told her
case to the police. Chief Biiggs told her
to take the child as she had been instructed
by the father and return home. The mother
placed herself In the door und had to be
pulled away by force before the child and
Its protector could pass. She threatened
the chief with violence and prosecution,
but he referred her to the Juvenile court
to show cause why she should have posses
sion of her child. The ch'.ld has been cared
for In the Home of tha Good Shepherd. A
younger daughter. Viola Hewett, has been
cared for by City Clerk GilUn.

TREASURY FUNDS ARE READY

Meet Money Demand a.
NEW lORK, Sept. 7.-flanks In the Wall
street district were much relieved yester
day when they received word from Wash
ington that the government was prepared to
place with them substantial deposits of
treasury money. For some time following
Secretary Cortelyou's announcement of his
program for making weekly deposits com
mercial banks In the uptown district have
been receiving government deposits, but
the so-called Wall street banks had heard
no word from Washington regarding their
fate.
When the word came that the depart,
inent was ready to make deposits upon tha
presentation of acceptable collateral, the
banks In the financial district at once took
steps to get the money. There sre a num
ber of big banks In the financial district
having fiom 9u0 to 900 correspondents
throughout the I'nlted States and they were
beginning to feel the effect of the requests
for money from points not covered by the
treasury deposits. There waa some anx
iety lest this situation was not exactly un
derstood by the Treasury' department.

Against Standard Oil
Company,
IOWA CITY. la.. Sept. 7.-(Speclal.)-George
W. Blatchford, for three years past
e. Journeyman Jeweler In this city, left to-
dsy for Boston, where he will bo the star
witness In a ISO.OOO.OOO suit against the
Standard Oil company. Back of this sim
ple statement lies a romantic and unusual
story, which dates back nearly thirty years
to the time when Blatchford was first mate
on the Robert Dillon, a sailing vessel ply
ing between New York and Rio de Janeiro,
In 1878 an old man by the name of Green-
ough engaged passage on the boat, stating
tbat he was going to the South American
city to Install a gas plant.
On the voyage down he became violently
HI and upon arrival In port was Immedi
ately transferred to thet boat Memnon
bound for New York. Three days before
the Memnon arrived In America Greenough
died. , On the voyage down Greenough took
a llkfng to Blatchford and told him that he
had discovered a process whereby Astral
oil could be msde nonexplosive; that the
Charles Fratt OH company was at that
time using his process and paying him
therefor 4-cent on each gallon of oil ro-
flned. Blatchford gave no more thought
to tha matter, learned the Jewelry business
antf three years ago moved to Iowa City
In talking with friends here a few weeks
ago he told the story of Greenuush and
his trip to South America. It happened
that l.ls friends had read In a newspaper
of a. suit brought by the heirs of Oreea
ough. to recover ItO.OOO.two based on a con
tract calling for a royalty of ti of one
per cent on each gallons of astral oil
manufactured. The contract had not been
discovered among the papers of the elder
Greenough until very recently. The case
had gone to trial and Rogers bad testified
that tho contract had been revoked In 1875.
Blatchford communicated with ths attor
neys having charge of the case with tha
result that they have asked him to eome
to Boston Immediately to testify. They
expect to show by Blatchford's testimony
that Greenough still regarded the contract
as being In force in 1S7S; that he so told
Blatchford. Tha outcome of the case will
bo watched here with consldersble Interest.

CHICAGO. WOMAN MURDERED
Mrs. Fred Pish. Wife of Wealthy
Broker, Dead Husband
la Dying.
CHICAGO, Sept. 7. Mrs. Fred M. Fish,
wife of a wealthy retired broker, waa
found murdered In her home at 43 Davis
street, Evsnston, at an early hour today.
Her husband was found with his throat
cut, unconscious, on ths floor of tha bed
room in Which the body ot Mrs. Fish Waa
lying. It is the opinion of the police that
Fish murdered his wife and then attempted
suicide. He was hurried to a hospital, but
has not yet receovered consciousness, and
It is doubtful if h will revive sufficiently
to maks a statement.
The cause of the tragsdy Is unknown.
Mr. and Mrs. Fish war heard by their
neighbors In a violent altercation last
night, and It Is believed that Fish arose
early today, and after discharging a shot
gun Into his wife's head, hacked her In a
horrible fashion with a butcher cleaver. A
servant girl, who was In tho heusa, de
clared that she heard tb report ot a
shotgun early this morning, and tha
cleaver with which Mrs. Fish was mangled
was found lying beside the bed.
Fish had been for twenty years associ
ated with a prominent commission house,
which recently retired from business. He
was In poor health and for some time had
been suffering attacks of despondency.
It was declared by the physicians at the
hospital that Fish will undoubtedly recover
from the wound In his throut. Late today
he became so violent it waa found neces
sary to remove him to a sanitarium. It Is
said by physicians that he Is undoubtedly
Insane.
CHICAGO TRACTION MUDDLl
t'oart nf Appeals Makea lmpoaalhW
the Merger of Lines at
rresrnt.
CHICAGO. Sept. I.-The order recently
entered by Juilga Uroftscup in tho I'nlted
States circuit court directing the receivers
of tha t.'nlon Traction company, which op
crates the street car systems on ths north
snd west sides of the city, to turn these
properties- over to a new corporation called
ths Chicago Railways company, for twenty
years, ws today reversed by the lnlte
States court of appeals.
Ths decision fetnands the case
I'nlted ttstes circuit court and leaves the
traotlon situation where it wsS before ths
formation of the Chicago Railways com
pany. It was ths opinion of the court of
appeals that Judge Orosscup had no power
to give possession to the Chicago Railways
company without the consent of the bond
holders Snd stockholders of the underlying
companies. The decision declares that the
only manner In which the Chicago Rail
way! company can secure possession of lit
traction properties Is through noirottatlons
with the stockholders and the bondholders.
In the optnlon of Justice Brewer of tha
I'nlted States supreme court, wno read
ths decision, the ordinance giving the Chi
cago Railways company the right to oper
ate these roads was fair and should have
been put In operation. The court held,
however, that the wisdom of this ordinance
or even public necessity from a business
point of view, .could not be taken Into con
sideration, as the Interests of prtvsts prop
erty holders were the paramount points at
issue.
The sctlon taken by the court of appeals
hinged entirely on tho question of Juris
diction. The power of Judge Orosscup to
Issue the order In question was the only
act' assailed.
As the ordinance of the Chlcsgo Rail
ways company expires by limitation Sep
tember 14 It will be Impossible for the com
pany to obtain possession of the properties
by that time. The entire situation there
for reverts to the period when tha prop
erties were held by receivers and before ths
unification of the north and west side lines
was undertaken.
