intervene in the cases of w. A. Clark &
Bro, L. Schieder & Co., the California

nell company. The petitions recite that
the Goddard case was instituted on the
11th of last April, and that the trial
was concluded last Saturday and sub
mitted to the jury at 4;30 o'clock. A
verdict for $1,000 was returned against
the company at 3 o'clock. At o'clock
the plaintiffs in three of the other
cases filed their complaints and attach
ments were issued. The property of
the company Is not sufficient to satisfy

declared null and void on the ground
that they were issued and procured to
be issued by the defendant company
fraudulently and falsely in anticipation
of the judgment in the Goddard case.
