IT COMES FROM THE THORNTON
THOMAS MIXUP.

Another suit growing out of the Thorn
~ton-Thomas Mercantile Co.'s business OF
a rev years ago was commenced in the
district court this afternoon and in it the
plaintiff demands judgment for $22, $50.

maliciously and without cause secured
from the district court an order appoint
ing E. H. Hubbard receiver for the BUSH
ness OF the company; that they COUNSEL
ed n advised Hubbard to take possess
sion of the business and property of the
plaintiff and on the 7th of October Hub
bard did comply with the request and
excluded the plaintiff from all connec-
ton with it; that the order made by the
court was null and void and made with
out jurisdiction or authority on it's part;
that acting on the order the receiver pro-
ceeded to dispose of the stock of goods
valued at $500, thus wrecking the bust
ness which at that time was earning net
profit of over 5000 per month and had col
lectable bills aggregating 5 $1,000; that
the expense Of fighting the proposition
amounted to $1,O50, and outside of this
the company was damaged to the ex-
tent of $21, 900.

ment on a promissory note for $1,222.77
which it alleges the defendants executed
January /, 1898, and have not satisfied.
