lately been holding down the boards at
Columbia Garden. The order of APP
pointment was signed by Judge Clancy,
at the request of Sinclair & Dygert, the
new law firm, the banner of which was
swung to the breeze on the LIST. Tn re-
~ceiver's bond was placed at $3.50. Ac-
companying the application for the order
was a complaint in which Charles Dock
man is named as plaintiff and Jean De-
kreko, Andre Dekreko, Gabriel Dekreko,
Charles Dekreko, George Dekreko,
Joseph Bedrosin and La Belle Saida are
defendants. The latter is alleged to be
the wife of Jean Dekreko, but the COM
plant says her true name is
to the plaintiff. In the document Dock
man alleges that on the 18th of NOvem-
Der of last year, in Denver, the defend
ants II himself resolved themselves
into a firm to be known as the Dekreko
Brothers, for the purpose of giving the
atrical performances in various parts of
the United States. The life Of the firm
was to be one year, and each membe OF
it was to put in SIS and at the end Of the
year divide the assets share and share
alike. An accounting was to be made
every fifteen days and a "divvy' of the

each member of the firm was to contrib
ute his "act" to the success Of the ven
ture. Jean DekrekO was selected as
manager, general supervisor of the finan-
cial department and keeper of the con-
tract.
Dockman further alleges that the prop
erty accumulated is valued at about
81, 500, and in addition to this there is
$500 cash in the hands of the boss, which
would make his share of the whole about
$500; that four months ago the defend
ants entered into a plot to beat him out
of his portion and that in furtherance of
the scheme Jean and his wife have
placed about $3.50 to their individual
credit: that since the engagement in this
city closed they and the other defendants
have declared their intention Of dis
solving the firm, converting the property
into cash and investing it in a stock of
jewelry, which they proposed to sell in
Salt Lake; that unless restrained by the
court from pursuing such a course he
will be out his share of the proceeds.
Dockman also declares that Jean has
possession Of the contract by the terms
of which the seven persons to the suit

tered into among them while doing bust
ness in the Centennial state.
1t was the intention of the Dekrekos
to start for Salt Lake last Tuesday, but
business engagements" thanked by a
legal demand from Dockman for his
share of the ducas has delayed their
departure.
The divorce suit of Jesse Seward
against Mabel G. Seward has been dis
missed, not because of a reconciliation
between the plaintiff and defendant, but
by reason of the fact that the defendant
passed under the wire fully two lengths
in advance of the plaintiff. Mr.. Seward
filed his suit here and at about the same
time or a little later Mrs. Seward filed
one against him in Minnesota. Her de-
cree was granted June IA. After Seward
began his suit his wife filed an answer
and crOss-complaint in which she asked
for alimony and the court granted her
request for the latter. The document of
dismissal contains a clause releasing
Seward from the payment of the all
mony.
Justice Nichols discharged Annie
Spriesch and John Balm yesterday after
hearing the testimony. The couple had
been charged with adultery, the COM
plant having been made by the woman's
husband.
c.. P. Connolly, as the attorney for the
plaintiff in the divorce suit of Monica
Frey Callahan against Emmett Callahan,
filed in Justice Harrington's court at
$50 o'clock yesterday afternoon a mo-
ton to set aside the judgment obtained
by George S. Lander against Emmett
Callahan last month and allow Mrs. Cal
lahan to appear as i%ntervenOr in the
suit. The motion was accompanied by
an affidavit from Mrs. Callahan. 1t is
alleged that the judgment was obtained
by collision between Callahan and Lam
| der with Robert Coombe acting in con-
junction with 1t. Prior to Galatians de-
partnre from Butte an order prohibiting
him from in any way encumbering his
effects was issued out of the district
court, and it is claimed by Mrs. Gala
han that after the order was made CAL
lahan placed his office furniture in the
keeping of Lander, accompanying it with
a promissory note for $50. When the
note matured suit to recover judgment
on it was commenced in Justice Harring-
, tons court. 1t is also claimed that At
torney Coombe. Mr.. Callahan's legal rep
resentative, drew up the complaint for
Lander and then did not appear to de-
fend it; that as a result Lander secured
judgment and levied on Galatians fur
niture to satisfy it. The further claim is
ruse to get the property away from Mrs.
Callahan.
The motion was set for hearing at 10
O'Clock this morning, but at that time
a motion to continue the matter until a
later date was made and granted. Mrs.
Galatians affidavit is as follows:
Monica Frey Callahan, being first
duly sworn. deposes and says that she
is the wife of the defendant in the
above named action: that there is pend
ing against the said defendant, Emmet
Callahan, an action for divorce. brought
by this affiant, and for a division Of the
property Of the said Emmett Callahan
