BEAR VALLEY COMPANY AGAIN.
Another Big Suit Instituted
Against 1t.
The Case Involves Over Four Hun.
bred Thousand Dollars.
1t May Possibly Lead to More SORROW
Complicatious-The Validity of
the Receivers' APP
pointmeRt.

James Gilbert Foster of London has
commenced suit in the United States
circuit court against the Bear Valley
Irrigation company of Redlands for the
recovery OF over 100000. The vast
amount WAS loaned the company by
several individuals and corporations,
whose contracts were assigned and trans.
ferred to the plaintiff. In answer to the
allegations in the bill Of complaint, tho
company has filed statement admit
ting the indebtedness.
This will prove to be the most inn
portant suit the Bear Valley corporation
has yet encountered. The same course
will probably be gone through as was
done in the recent case against the COM
pany where debt of $4,000 was paid
rs q compromise, thus defeating the
real issue, which was the intention to
have a receiver appointed by the United
States court. The case will probably
bring up the validity Of the recent APP
pointment of Receiver Morrison by
Judge Hayes of the Riverside county
superior court.
The complaint filed by Mr.. Foster,
after reciting the fact that the Bear VAL
ley Irrigation company 10 authorized
under the laws of the state to borrow
money. alleges that last September the
company borrowed $121, 250 of the Real
izstion and Debenture corporation of
Scotland, limited, for six months. with
interest. After the loan and contract
was made it was assigned to Henry Cook,
J. W. Moncrief and Francis Moore, and
they transferred it to the plaintiff. On
this count he asks Judgment for princi-
pal and interest, the whole amounting
to SIPS, 607.4l.
And for another and distinct cause of
action the plaintiff alleges that on Au-
euht 4, 1893, Henry Allen and George ].
Kingston, citizens Of Great Britain,
loaned the defendant company the sum
OF $35, 900, payable in six months. This
loan was also transferred and assigned
to Mr.. Foster, which now amounts to
$3.50 904, both principal and interest.
Wherefore Mr.. Foster prays judgment
to that amount.
For further and other and different
cause of action Mr.. Foster alleges that
the Bear Valley company was indebted
to Henry Allen OF Glasgow. Scotland, in
the sum of 500. 600; that the indebted
ness was created by loan made by
Allen to the company in July, 1893.
which loan and contract Mr.. Foster aleo
holds, and for which ne asks Judgment.
In another cause of action Mr.. Foster
alleges that on April 20, 1898. the Bear
Valley Irrigation company became in
ss=ssst-sa vuU M~<thew hobbins for
$73, 952. AZ; that the indebtedness &C
crued for services rendered by Robbins,
which account in full was assigned to
Mr.. Foster. the plaintiff. Heasks judg-
ment for the amount, with interest.
He also sues for $6007.20, which was
due him prior to January, 1894. az well a.
for $50, 900 loaned the Bear Valley com.
pany by the Bond Corporation company
of London, with 1851 interest.

Bat like Washington, Lincoln, and all
other really great men, the true great
uess Of Grant is beat seen when he was

there his simple, earnest, manly nature
wac not changed.
Very many men can bear the worst
reversed Of fortune with decent resigna-
ton; very few can bear great success
without giving way to vanity. Grant
in few years passed through such wide
changes of fortune as history furnishes
but few examples of. In all those
changes he exhibited the same resolute
self-control, the same perseverance in
meeting and overcoming difficulties, the
same true greatness--in word, the
same complete manhood.
