Probate Court--Judge Robertson.
The hearing on the appointment Of 9
trustee on the insolvent estate of the En-
terprise Installment company came up.
Attorney J. W. Chaplin, counsel for the |
company, asked for continuance until
Friday.
Attorney Wright argued for an immedi-
ate appointment. Attorneys Ingersoll aud
Gallagher supported his position, but
Judge Robertson said that inasmuch as the prop
erty Of the concern was amply protected by the
officer in charge he believed that short delay
would not be disadvantageous, and he therefore
granted Mr.. Chapin's motion for q continuance,
not uItl Friday, as was desired, but until Thurs
day morning, giving Instructions that the officer
In charge Of the store should secure all the
property belonging to the concern before that
time.
Attorney ]. W. Chaplin said in regard to the
case: Statements have appeared In the papers
about members of the firm breaking in the store
and taking the assets of the concern during the
aforesaid was done without my consent and
knowledge I wish to deny it. and upon my pro-
have no knowledge that either members of
the concern broke into the store, or that
concern. SO far as the men connected with the
company are concerned they can prove an
ali ii Is to the time at which such burglary was
friends on the night Of the alleged burglary and
the other was out OF the city. But wish to ssy
get to that store and take anything belonging to
them which was not under attachment. The
books and leases belongipg to the concern were
and If i5 was desired to remove them there is
nothing to prevent them ~
