CAUGHT TIMBER AFLOAT.

WASH FROM A STEAMER SCAT
TERED A RAFT ALONG THE
RIVER BANKS.
When the steamer City of Chester
came into the Christiana yesterday
morning the wash from her propeller
caused a line on q raft of timber at
Bush & Rayner's wharf to part, and
the timber was scattered along the
river The tide was running in, and
much Of the timber was carried in past
Third street bridge.
Some of the sticks Of timber were
caught at Third street bridge. These
were claimed by employees of the COM
pany. who came after them in a tug
The men who caught the timber claim
that the company refused to pay sal
wage on them.
Several of the logs were also caught
at Market street bridge by Edward
German and James Payne. They tied
up. the logs at the bridge and held them
for salvage.
The lumber company claimed that
the timber caught was worth $l25, ano
offered to pay $3.50 salvage on it. This
the men refused to accept.
The company then put the matter
into the hands of the sheriff and he re
plevined the logs this morning, Deputy
Sheriff Tucker acting for him.
The timber was valuable yellow pine
in sticks running from sixty to sevent!
/ feet in length.

THE ROBBER CAUGHT.

JOHN WRIGHT, WHO ROBBED THE
HOUSE OF JOHN OsKIN, IN GUS
TODY.
For some time past numerous robber-
les have been committed near the Vi
cinity Of Newport and the farmers
there have been unable to cope with
the marauders. On the night of Octo-
Der 6, the house of John Oskins was
entered and robbed of shoes. coats, car
penter tools, a pair of skates and $3.50
in cash.
Nothing was said OF the matter until
yesterday when the case came up be-
fore Magistrate Daley.
Suspicion pointed TO John Wright, but
nothing was said to him for fear he
would make his escape. He was sum
moned to appear as a witness, and after
giving his testimony Magistrate Daley
read the warrant to him, duplicating
him as the one who robbed the house.
The scheme was well laid. Wright be-
came very nervous and excited. After
hearing the warrant he broke down
and confessed the crime. He was held
in $500 bail for court.

ment the company became insolvent,
and is now bankrupt as the affidayits
prove"
Mr.. Higgins then read the assets of
the company as ordered by Judge
Wales. They showed the assets to be
$2,000,000, with capital stock of Si5.-
100000, and that the total stocks and
bonds issued by the company amounts
to $4,000 00G
Mr.. Higgins then charged Addlcks
with concealing the books and papers
OF the company from the court, also
with trying to hurry the proceedings in
the case. He closed, then Mr.. Carter,
for the defence, opened their side OF
the case.
MR.. CARTER SPEAKS.
What has turned out Of this hear
ing?" Mr.. Carter said Charges Of
fraud from beginning to end, but no
proof. The opposing counsel contends
that they should be allowed to search
all the papers belonging to the COM
pany ever since the time of the organi-
zation of this company. The general
aspect of this motion for receivership
is that the company is insolvent and
frauded the directors and stockholders
out of their investment. We have proof,
your honor, that there Is something
else back of this suit besides this cry
of fraud" Mr. Carter then summed up
the argument of the opposing counsel,
and his short, crisp answer hau telling
effect on the argument presented by
the other side.
After reading the substance Of the
charter of the Massachusetts company
in regard to the law regulating the
standing of the company and its rela-
ton to it's stockholders, Mr. Carter pro-
ceeded to show that not a law had been
violated since the company has been
incorporated.
The question of this complaint is
whether the receivers shall blot out
forever this company because it owes
few paltry dollars. Mr.. Higgins also
contends in his allegations that the
$1,50000O belonging TO the stockholders
was used fraudulently but we can prove
that it went to pay the assets of the
company, and how can any company
exist if it cannot pay its debts?
four honor" said MI Carter Il be-
lieve that the revenue collected during
the coming year will be sufficient to
pay all obligations. Is it justification
for them to demand the books and
papers of this company? What will
they do with lem? What particular
motive can they have? With them It
will have no bearing in the case what
ever.
COUNSEL SNOW SPEAKS.
Frederick r. Snow, of Boston, coun-
sci for Buchanan, interrupted Mr. Car
ter, and offered to give an explanation
of the facts bearing on the case. Mr..
Snow said that Buchanan came to his
Office and made charges against the
Bay State Gas Company, claiming to
be a stockholder of said company, and
that it was insolvent. On these grounds
/ the suit was brought. and there are nc
other charges, as the opposing counsel
declares in the bill of complaint.
WANTED ADDICKS HELD.
Mr.. Foster moved to have Mr. Ad
dicks held in custody for fear he would
make his escape. Judge Wales refused
the motion, saying that Mr.. Addicks
had too much at stake to leave the
city.
Mr.. Carter asked that the motion tc
discharge the receivers should be
granted.
Judge Wales said he would consider
it when court convened.
A recess was taken until 230 o'clock
