MANY DEFENDANTS
An Irrigation Bond Suit Makes Work
for the Officers

RIVERSIDE, April 2S.-An officer in the
employ of the owners of the bonds of the
Alessandro irrigation district is at work
here serving summons papers on the de-
PENDANTS in the case brought by the bond
holders some time ago against the dis
trict, to compel the payment of bonds due
and interest account accumulated. The
suit was filed some months ago, but until
now little or nothing has been heard of it..
In bringing the suit the plaintiffs have
included as defendants every one who was
ever in any way connected with the dis
trict, whether as land owners, officials
connected with the litigation which has
marked the historyhof' the district, or in
any capacity. This wholesale sweep makes
the number of defendants run away up in
the thousands, and the officer Is finding it
quite hard matter to locate many of
those whom he desires to serve with no.
tice to appear and show what interest
they have in the district.
The case Of Joseph Jarvis VS.. the River
side Trust company, which has been on
trial in the superior court for several days
before a jury, was brought to q sudden
close today when the court ordered a nom
suit in favor of the defense. The suit was
brought to collect some 10000 claimed as
damages sustained by the action of the
defense in selling fruit grown on land
upon which the plaintiff held an option.
