d Co., North Weymouth, Mass, S127;
j. H. IL f. ii. Torrey, 1924. Mr.
Chestnut arrived home yesterday and
has made no effort to evade response
bility. He had conference yesterday
at the West hotel with number of his
creditors, but no definite arrangement
was made as to what was the best thing
to be done. 1t is very probable though,
that the court will be asked to appoint
receiver, and that Reynolds Il Co.,
who carried of the stock, will be asked
to surrender it to the receiver,
Mr.. Gardner, of the firm of
Gardner & Estes, who are
the heaviest creditors, arrived in the city
yesterday and was present at the West
hotel conference, it was thought that he
might push the matter to the extent of
bringing criminal action against
Chestnut, but he showed no such dis
position yesterday. Several of the cred
itors seemed to think that CheStuut's
father, who is reputed to be well off,
would pay all claims. If this is done,
of course, there will be no further
trouble.
X. l.. Polk & Co. yesterday met the
application of the Minneapolis City Di-
rectOry company to dissolve the in juno
tion restraining the publication of the
directory of the latter company by filing
indemnifying bonds to the amount of
$4,000 with the clerk of the United
States court.
