president of the Mccullough Iron Company,
and Mrs. Mcdaniel, asking that the court
appoint receivers Of its own, and to cnioin
the receivers appointed by the United States
Circuit Court for the District OF Delaware.
and the Cecil County Circuit Court from
Interfering in any way With the business or
property of the company. On March 9Th,
1892, a bill Was filed in the United States
Circuit Court for this district 10y the Fidelity
Insurance, Trust and Deposit Company of
Philadelphia, as trustee under the will of
Dclaplaino Mcdaniel, asking that Il receiver
for the Mccullough Iron Company hc APP
pointed, on the ground of insolvency. The
court took no action SO far as the appoint
mrnt of a receiver was concerned, and the
company ran along until Fe pruary last,
when upon bill filed by Henry WhiteIry.
secretary Of the company, and Il stakeholder,
and upon an answer filed by the company,
admitting its then insolvency. the United
States Circuit for the District of Delaware. ON
February l3, appointed the Girard Lite
Insurance Annuity and Trust Company and
Mr., Whitelcy receivers of the company for all
the property i'll Delaware The next day,
upon II similar bill and Proceedings. the
Circuit Court of Cecil County appointed the
same receivers for all the property in Mary
land.
Mr.. Henry Z. Terry, of Philadelphia, pre-
sented the petitioners case, and Messrs.
Bernard Carter & Sons appeared Saturday
for the iron company and the present re-
ceiycrs, and for the latter showed tnut
creditors to the amount of S13S 900 out of
Sl43,000, and holders of 3,057 shares of
stock out of 450O shares, We're desirous that
the court should not disturb them in their
office. Judge Morris said that, in view OF
the showing made, he would under no
circumstances disturb the receivers now in
possession, but that in his opinion the pro-
ceedings in the Cecil County Court ought not
to have been taken, but that after the appoint
ment made by the Delaware court, the re-
ccivers should have come into this court and
by Il cross bill, asked that the same reccl,r.s ;
be appointed, and tnat he would require that
this be done.
