WHO is ENTITLED TO THE MAILg

Postmaster Thompson Sends n Query to
Washing ton Referred to MIR. Chambers
The order of Judge Taylor directing the
receiver to receive all the mail addressed
to the Iron Hall was questioned by Post
master Thompson. who did not believe the
State court has jurisdiction over private
mail. He therefore wired the order of the
court In full to the Attorney general. An
answer was received yesterday lnstructing
HIM to deliver as addressed all private let
ters to those connected with the Iron Hall.
Whatever of controversy, however. that
there might have been was obviated by the
Iron Hall employees signing an order to the
receiver, allowing him to receive all their
mail and by him to be delivered TO them.
The text of the answer received from
Washington is as follows:
WASHINGTON. ID. c., Aug. Is, 1892.
E p. Thompson. p. NJ. Indianapolis. Ind:
don't understand that the court Is warranted
In making order covering anything but official
mail matter. that is. mail addressed the Off
GERS or employees of said concern in their official
capacity, know no reason why personal or
private mail should not be delivered adj

him confer with receiver. that order be
modified. Advise me OF result.

WIDESPREAD LITIGATION.

Iron HaiIers I'm Other states IEclined to
Hang on To- What They Havo.
The general game of grab" that was
feared in the Iron Hall wreck has already
begun. Whether il is fright upon the part
of members, or whether it is partly due to
the efforts of supreme officers TO hang on
TO the funds. certain il is that the move
men, to tie mp funds in the various States
Is very general Litigation is in progress
In q number of different States, and In but
one of these-Mary land-is It's purpose in
harmony with the receivership here. Re-
ceiveys have already been appointed In
that State, with the understanding that
they will act in harmony with the receiver
of the Supreme Sitting. Mr.. Failey. A re-
ceiver was appointed In Michigan yester-
day with the avowed purpose. the dis
patches say, of estopping the collection of
funds In that State by the Indianapolis re-
ceiyer. about $4,000 of which are In De-
Rarnisheed by the Michigan receiver, L. T..
Walker.
In st. Louis application has been made
for receiyer of the Supreme Sitting. That
cannot be granted by State court, for the
corporation has no residence there. About
fifty thousand dollars of the orders money
is held in that State. and III. E. Smith will
appear at the hearing there tomorrow as
attorney for Receiver Failey. and seek to
have the money turned over to him by order
of the cor rt. In the meantime applications
are pending in Cleveland, Jersey City and
Boston.
Messrs. Harris. Hawkins and Smith have
been retained as attorneys by Receiver
FaiIey rs well as Harold Taylor. When
Mr.. Smith departed for st. Louis last night
Mr.. Hawkins was already on his way TO
Philadelphia to iooN after the orders in
terest in the SNAP" bank. If the mem-
bers persist In this litigation in other
States they will be the only los
ers, while the attorneys and the
1nemb ers who come in under the Indiana
receivership will be the gamers.
There il nothing alarming about these
suits in other States" said Mir. III. T..
Smith. of the receivers counsel, last even
decline to account with us. We shall simply
are defeated, 50 much the worse for the
members In those States where there are
dribs of from $4,000 TO $4,000 of the or
der's funds. Where they would get. say
g. under this receiyership, they will only
get 90 cents there. The bulk of the funds.
about 100000. is here in Indianapolis, and
the more members whose State receivers
or branches decline to come in under the
receivership the more there will be left to
divide up among those who do. Should all
the other States stay out this 5000 900 would
afford nice dividend for the 200 mem beers
in Indiana"

to Walker asking for. information about
the action taken by the finance committee
on some matter before It. Somerby saw
the letter. and Walker said: The next
thing heard of Barnes was that he was
expelled from the order" To prove his
own honesty Walker said: "Why. could
have robbed the order of $25. ZOO year If

The branch then appointed committee

Accountant Ilenberger of one of the Chi

that Somerby had issued call for meet
ing of all the branches in that city. At
the Iron Hall building il was thought that
Somerby was making last effort to get
hold of more funds. and had issued this
call for the purpose of lnveigling mem bers
outside of the State into scheme to fight
the receivership outside of the jurisdic tion
of the court granting the petition. it is
said that number of kilograms have been
received which go TO show that Somerby
is attempting TO get Ills clutches on all the
money he can persuade members to give 20.
The attorneys for the receiver attach no
Importance TO these teIegrams. from Tia
fact that the order of the court explicitly
states that only such branches ms comply
with the provision for turning all funds
over 10 the receiver shall be entitled to
share in the division of assets. The bulk
of the funds are within the State of Indi-
ana. ana under the jurisdiction OF the
court. and unless the outside branches
submit To the order and surrender their
funds to the receiver they will fare consid-
cradle worse than their Indiana brothers.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug 25.-The affairs of
the Order of Iron Hall in this city were
brought to q crisis to-day by the filing of q
bill in equity against the answers of the
Supreme Sitting of the Iron Hall. The
court is asked to appoint q receiver for the
entire State of Pennsy lvania and to direct
that the business of the order in this State
be wound up and the funds restored to the
persons from whom they were received. IL
Is expected that hearing for preliminary
injunction will be held tomorrow before
Judge Breezy. of the Common Pleas Court.
There is considerable speculation hero as
Co the whereabouts of Supreme Justice

though he was expected to arrive here yes
terday no one was able TO find him in Phila-
delphis. and last night a report W as cur
rent that he was in Detroit, from which

Canada if such q step became necessary.
A second bill in equity asking an Injunc-
