New YORK, Jan. l2.-The report
OF the receivers for the Thurber
Wbylsnd Company, the largest
wholesale grocery house in the world
was filed today. 1t shows highly
satisfactory condition of fl airs, the
assets and accounts receivable being
very largely in excess of the liza:

the committee on reorganization
has met the approval of large
maj ,rity of the stockho ders, and
the deposit of securities, together
with the first cash payments, have
proven more than sufficient for the
carrying out of the plan as at first

the rece'vership will shortly be dis

An Interesting Case.

NEW YORK, Jan. l2.-The hear.
ing of the testimony in the case of
James M. Dickson, conse1vator of
the person and estate of Henry w.
Dickson, lunatic, against Henry
A. Root, who has for several years
been counsel for Dickson and has
had charge of his estate, commenced
today al Flushing, Long Island.
The case was commenced at Chicago
last March, and calls for an account.
ing of receipts and expenditures.
The complaint alleges that Mr..
Root exercised an undue influence
over his ellen mind, and misap.
propriated funds entrusted 20 his
care. 1t is even claimed that Mr..
Dickson was deprived of certain
comforts of life by reason of Mr.
Roots management CT his affairs.
An estate at one time worth $780,
900, it is alleged, has been so mis-
managed as-to be absolutely worth.
less at the commencement of the
suit in March. Mr.. Root, who
lived in New York many years, and
was widely known as successful
lawyer and popular club man, has
devoted the last five years to prose
cutting the claims of himself and
other heirs to the estate of the late
Andrew j. Davis, of Butte, Mont.
After long fight settlement has
practically been reached under
which MIR. Root will cover a large
share of an estate estimated to be
worth $40, 100000. 1t is charged
that the Dickson suit was brought
to injure the reputation of MIR. Root
before the public, and was in the
nature of a conspiracy between Mr..
Dickson, and the opponents of Root
in the will case.
Mr.. Root became trustee of the
estate of Henry w Dickson through
an agreem ant between counsel d
client. MIR. Root and James w.
Dickson, brother of Henry, were
chums in a Connecticut boarding
school, and through this relation
Mr.. Root became acquainted with
the United States Senator James
Dickson, of Connecticut, father of
the boys. Mr.. Root enjoyed sena-
tor Dlckson's influence and was his
legal adviser. According to thu
answer filed in the present suit
Senator Dickson just before his
death requested Root to protect his
son, Henry w. Dickson, against
the fraudulent devises and designs
of his brother, James Dickson, we'll
knowing the bad character of the
latter son. All charges as to mis-
appropriation of the funds are spe.
officially denied in the answer and
several counter charges are set
forth. II is expected that the trial
will take place at Chicago in April.
