THE CAN coMPANY's ANSWER
It is Shswu That the Affairs of the Con-
esrn Are i'm Good shape.

IL IL Shswu That the Affairs OF the Con-
esrn Are i'm Good shape.
On the 18th day of January Au-
gustns j. Tucker filed bill in chancery
against w. j. Means and l.. ID. Sanborn
and the Michigan Can Manufacturing
Company, aud asked that the defend
ants, Means and Sanford, he restrained
from further managing the affairs of
the said company. The bill, among
other things, alleged that the defend
ants had refused 10 transfer stock on
the books OF the company when re-
quested 50 TO do by complainant. and
were consplrng to defrand him of has
investments and interest IN the bus
mess The defendants now come into
court with their answer, and show that
complainant presented 100 shares OF
stock. which had been issued TO Eliza
beth Sanborn, and demanded a transfer
OF Aid stock to him on the books of
the company and the issuance OF new
certificates. This the defendants re-
fused TO do, because the assignment was
IN blank and they had no knowledge
except from the complainant that he
owned them. In addition to this they
had been served with a notice from
Elizabeth Sanborn not TO transfer the
eaid stock because the same had been
garuIsheed by one Cobb. A second
notice similar to tlie first was was also
served upon them and tney declined TO
make the transfer until the legal owner
ship of the stock was determined.
In answer to the charge of conspiracy
and fraud, il is showd that Means had
advanced 8 large sum of money to the
concern and that the same was paid
back In stock of the company at its
market value OF 40 per cent. of its face.
The hooks of the company show the
transaction IN detail. The defendants
deny that complainant was ever denied
access TO the books, but on the con-
trary assert that he consulted them fire.
9uently. They also claim that the
business is conducted to the best of
their ability and that 1t is not run at a
loss, nor for the purpose OF securing to
themselves advantages over the other
stockholders
\ motion was made yesterday for n
preliminary injunction restraining the
defendants from further interference
which was taken under advisement by
Judge Burch.

TIE DfSHIELL REWARD.
Much Speculation rs to His Whereabouts.
Treaty with Mexico.

Since the offering Of reward of $50 by
Chief-of-Police Poe for W. s. Dasbiell, the
speculation as to his whereabouts has started
again and rumor is rife OF his having been
seen. flying report of his having been seen
in Mexico. Just over the line from Texas
strengthens the theory that he Is in that coun-
try. One reason for thinking that he has
gone 10 Mexico is the knowledge by the po-
lice that former Richmond man. who left
this city under a cloud few years ago, is liy-
ing across the border in the vicinity Of the
Texas line. DashIell was well acquainted with
the man referred to- and on the theory that
birds of q feather flock together some of the
police force believe that lie IS now in that
neighborhood.
n this view of tho matter the question as
TO whether an extraditiou treaty exists be-
tween the country and Mexico. which would
cover Dashiells case were he apprehended, is
being much discussed.
There is n treaty between Mexico and the
United States. made December1f, 1861. which
refers to the crimes for which extradition is
provided and names forgery as being one of
them. including the forgery or making or
knowingly passing or putting in circulation
counterfeit coin or bank notes ETC. The
treaty is found in volume II, United States
Statutes at Large page 1893.
