ASKS FOR A RECEIVER.
Mrs. Quimby Charges an Insurance
COmpany's Officers with DefaIcatiOn.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Aug. 27.-Mrs. c. j. Quinn
by. one of the stockholders of the Ameri-
can-Canadian Home Insurance Company,
brought suit to-day in the Superior Court
for the appointment of a receiver for the
association. In the bill filed the complain
ant states that liquidation of the affairs of
the organization was brought on by defal-
cation of $4,000 to $4,000 by F. Fl. Barry.
formerly vice president and William Barry,
the former secretary and treasurer. The
complainant says that the association was
so involved that al meeting held last jan
uary it was decided to go into voluntary
liquidation, and l.. d. Mccall was appointed
to take charge of the company's assets The
complainant sets up the claim that there is
about $40 600 of so-caled matured stock out
standing which, in fact, had not matured
at all, but that is fraudulently set down in
the books as such. She asks that the re-
ceiver appointed scale this stock down to
it's proper value so that the holders will
not receive more than they are entitled to
out of the division Of the funds, and she
further asks that the real estate be con-
verted into money ana an equitable distri-
button be made among the stockholders.
