Neenah, Wis, Feb. 15.-[SpeciaLl i
An article appeared in a Milwaukee
paper yesterday from the pencil of a
Washington correspondent in which it
was stated that progress in the passage
of the Fox river bill, for the placing of
flush boards on the Menasha dam for the
purpose of storing water in Lake Win
nebago, had been hindered by the appar-
ent lack of interest shown in its out
come by the people of the Fox river val

passage. +. C. Shattuck. member of

city and one of the committee which

had been sent to Washington to urge the

often expressed himself and Congress-

Receiver for American Savings Associa-
ton Begins His WORK.

Madison, Wis, Feb. IA Especial. /
nj. &. Clarke of this city, who has been
appointed by the circuit court receiver
for Wisconsin of the American Savings
and Loan association, formerly doing
business as the American Building and
Loan association of Minneapolis, is send
ing out notices to the mortgages whose
securities are held by State Treasurer
Peterson as indemnity for the 20 Wis
cOnsin shareholders, notifying them of
his appointment as receiver and OF the
order of the court restraining and enjOin-
ing them from making any payment,
either on the principal or interest, to
any person, officer or corporation except
the receiver, and also requesting them to
advise him of the several amounts
clair'cd by them to be due upon these
mo1tg1 gee, and of their ability to pay
the same according tic the terms of the
mortgage. There are 119 Of these mort
cages, their securities ranging all the
way from 5000 to $4,000, averaging
about $1,000, and they are scattered
through twenty-five states and terri
tories: Wisconsin, the Dakotas, Wyon-
ing, Missouri, Kansas, Oregon, Nebras
ka, Alabama, Indiana, Montana, Arkan-
sas, New Mexico, Idaho, Michigan,
Iowa. Utah, Minnesota, Texas, Nevada
and Virginia Through them Receiver
Clarke hopes to be able to form some es-
innate of the value OF the securities,
which upon their face are worth about
S113,0 900. The court has not yet decided
the point whether these securities can
be placed in the hands of the Wisconsin
receiver the hearing on this matter hay
ing been postponed till February II.
President James H. Bishop of the as
ISOLATION is sending out circulars 10 the
stockholders, enclosing petitions to be
signed by them to the court praying
that the order of January IA last by the
Minnesota court appointing receiver
for the association be vacated and dis
charged, and that the assets, property
and control of the association be returned
and redelivered to it. The circular is
an appeal to the shareholders to sign
this petition. The appointment of a re-
ceiver, it is stated, is only provisional,
and cannot become permanent until the
final decision of the case. 1t is pointed
out that in the present business depres-
sion it will be impossible to realize on
securities without loss which in the
hands of a strange receiver would be
practical ruin, and shareholders are
urged to sign the petition for their own
PROTECTION.
