TROUBLE IN A SAN LUIS BANK.
Stockholders Petition in Court for q De-
cree Removing Three of the
Directors

SAN LUIS OBISPO, CAL, May 30.-A
complaint was filed In the Superior Court
yesterday by /. G. Wickersham of Peta-
luna against James l.. Crittenden, S. w.
Wilson, Thomas T. Crittenden and the
Bank of San Luis Obispo, asking for a de-
cree removing James L. and Thomas T.
Crittenden and S. w. Wilson from the
Office of directors of the bank, to close up
the business of the bank by liquidation
and, for that purpose, to appoint receiver
to take charge OF the assets of the bank,
convert them into money, discharge all
liabilities and distribute the balance to the
stockholders.
The complaint alleges that the bank is
corporation with a capital stock of $780,
600 divided into 1000 shares of 500 each ;
that the plaintiff is the owner of 334 shares
and James L. Crittenden owns q small
majority of the stock, and has since Oc-
tober a. $780, that the defendants, S. W.
| Wilson and L. T. Crittenden, have each
ten shares transferred to them by James
L. Crittenden to enable them to act as di-
rectors, but James l.. Crittenden is the
actual owner; that at one time the bank
was doing large and profitable business.
1t had assets of about $500, 900 in bills re-
ceivable. bank premises valued at 1900,
other real estate valued at SIS 1000. cash
| $31, 900, and overdrafts of 100000. 1t had
| d pdiu-u y CdplIdI VI FlOO,OOOi dHu u SUI pluS
of $3.50, 900, and deposits on open account
! of $210 900, and 1t was the leading bank in
San Luis Obispo.
1t is also charged that Crittenden, hav-
ing control of the board of directors, draws
a salary OF $3.50 per month, pays cashier
s175. and his brother as bookkeeper $3.50
for wholly unnecessary services, and that
the business of the bank has been grad
ually destroyed by the mismanagement of
James Crittenden, and that no recupera-
tion is possible. Bills receivable have run
down from 100000 to S43 900; time de-
posits from $3.50 900 to $40, 600; and in open

One Succumbs to the Bitter Cold
and Dies in Her Com.
panion's Arms.
FOUND BY a MAIL-CARRIER
He Comes Upon the Half-Frozan Sur
vivor, Weeping Over the Body
of Her Friend.

ROCKY BAR, IDAHO, May 30.-Mrs.
Morrow of Boise City and friend Miss
Hoffman, started several days ago to
travel on snowshoes over the mountains
from Atlanta to this place. The foolhardy
venture, which few men care to attempt,
resulted in the death of Miss Hoffman
near the summit of the mountains, and
Mrs. Morrow's life is despaired of. These
two frail women, actuated by spirit OF
adventure, underwent an experience such
as few of their sex could survive, and that
one of them still lives Is matter of won
derment for the hardy mountaineers.
Soon after starting from Atlanta, which
is eighteen miles from Rocky Bar, they
lost the trail and night overlook them.
1t was bitterly cold and they could find no
shelter. They dug hole in the snow be-
side a large tree, and crouched there to
await the death that they believed would
soon come. During the night Miss Hoff-
man succumbed to the cold and exhaus-
ton.
A mail-carrier who passed the next day
found Mrs. Morrow in a very exhausted
condition, holding the st!ffened corpse of
her friend In her arms. They were found
one and half miles from the regular tran
through the mountains. The scene was as
startling as it was pitiable.
The anguish of the survivor, mourning
over the body of one OF her sex in that
out-of-the-way place. and alone in the
night, moved the mail-carrier to tears.
Aid was summoned and Mrs. Morrow and
the body of Miss Hoffman were carried to
a settlers cabin. Mrs. Morrow is now ly-
ing in critical condition at this place.
