OAKLAND, Feb. 13.-James e. Higgins, a
stockholder of La Favorita Raisin Vineyard
company of Fresno, today filed a petition
IN insolvency in the superior court of Ala

liabilities as $72,255, and his assets as
$3.50 worth of personal effects exempt
from execution. The raisin company
In which Mr.. Higgins figures prom

Drought by Warren Heaton some weeks
ago for an accounting and dissolution OF
the corporation on the ground of fraud and
misinanagement. The company had been
operating 40O-acre colony tract near
FRESNO, but the stockholders have been
nearly swamped with assessments.
The affairs of the company seem largely
involved in the failure Of Higgins. His lia-
bilities consist mainly of notes and obliga-
tions for large sums of money borrowed
at various times from divers sources.
The principal creditor is w. A.
Nevills, the owner of the Rawhide group
OF mines in Tuolumne county. Nevills
holds two promissory notes against Hig-
gins for $l1,34S and $27 ,425, secured,
however, by mortgages on 400 acres in
Fresno county. One of the allegations Of
Heaton's suit is that the raisin company
gave stock of the corporation to Nevills
without consideration and that he put up
$4,000 to aid the company.
