 BeardsleF. This court came yesterday morning at 10 o'clock At the opening of the court the hearing the ap- plication certain New York policy holders asking for anadditional bond and accounting by Talcott H. Russell receiver of the American Mutual Insurance company and National Life and Trust company, was resumed.
 Mr. Hamilton laid in the afhdayit of Benjamin Moves to the effect that Wednesday he knew for the first time of the contents of Receiver Russell's 4 davi and that he Noyes) had not aided in getting up the present movement against MT. Russell.
 MT. Hamilton argued in favor of an increased bond and for an immediate accounting by Mir. Russell to the court As reason he calculated that if the two stores in the Insurance building brought in $10, 600 year and Russell to continue receiver for eight years having hand g o60, the prospect that with the whole annual rental of the build ing about S25,O0O, and a4arge from htigztng suits against subscribers to the stock of the company and against other debtors, Russell would have a very much larger sum in his hands than his bond honesty, but reminded the court that good men, like Cashier Baldwin in New Jersey, were liable only small number of poiicy-holders asked for the increased bond-they had the rights as though hurt their interests to make public the receivers transactions foolish, account could be made privately to the conrt where reporters could ever it. The policy holders had right to know what Russell was spending in litigation | matter between certain parties and MT. Russell Not a single affidavit had been presented from single tempiated that Stedman should come into possession of the company bond of $2 900 for each of the two ] companies had been thought sufficient. When Rus. sell was appointed in July, 1878 Judge Pardee sal6 that $25, 900 was enough. Judge Sanford afterward said that in the of each of the two compa | nies making $50,O0O, was large enough bond. Rus sell could not sell the building without an order o court and should it be made, then would be the t1m l to talk about new bond.
 Shelton asked if receiver anxious to 6el | Ina Tnu hI1i1d f0r&
 Judge Beardsley objected to the interruption. l MT. Baldwin showed the court that harm would re suit to the best conduct of affairs of the receive should he be made to disclose his office secrets MT Russell was winding up three companies-the " I Conpecticuts and the New York company, and what money he received would finally go to three dlf | ferent treasurers. Therefore an accounting coul ! not now be mads. Russell had long ago filed re l port
 Mir. Hamilton said he never saw it. | Mr. Baldwin retorted that it had been filed sine | last March, and he could have seen it by looking Hamilton could go to Russell privately and get the 1n l formation he needed. l Mr. Hamilton said he was trying to get bond protect the orphans and children. MT. Russells re l sponsibihty only backed by one man.. ] they could get abatement of account it might be bel ter to get order from the court for an immediat distribution of the two perhaps five cents ap1ec to the orphans and widows, and so close up the bus | ness
 Mr. Shelton said he never knew a case in New Yorl with 5000 900 in it, to be closed under five years now called Russell to state what his suis for $500 | 900 in New York was about.
