THE DAGGETT & DUGAN CASE.
Receivers Appointed 10 Garry Out
the street Sweeping Contract.

Arthur Peter and A. A. Hoehling. jr.,
were yesterday appointed receivers for
the firm of Daggett d Dugan. contractors,
for the sweeping and cleaning of the
streets. The appointment was made as
the result of the decision Of Justice Bar
nard in the case OF the Fidelity and De
posit Company OF Baltimore against Dag
gett d Dugan. asking for an injunction to
restrain them, or either of them, from
drawing certain money from the District
yesterday, which, ii was alleged, was due
for work performed under their contract
for cleaning the streets, and also asking
for the appointment of u receiver to take
charge of the funds referred to-
The petition was based on the state
ments that the defendants had failed to
perform their contract with the Fidelity
and Deposit Company. which was their
surety in the sum Of $4,000, for the per-
formance OF their contract with the Dis
trict. The contract of the defendants with
the complainant required that the former
should pay for all material and labor
promptly and in cash. This the Fidelity
and Deposit Company alleged, was rot
done. and besides this. the defendants had
contracted other debts for which the COM
plainants might be made liable. They had
also reason to believe, the complainants
alleged, that the defendants anticipated
giving up their contract with the District.
In their answer filed on Wednesday Dag
gett e. Dugan denied every allegation made
by the complainant. Argument on the
question was begun before Justice Barnard
on Wednesday but was not concluded
until yesterday. The Fidelity and Deposit
Company was represented by Messrs.
Hemphill and Peter. and the defendants
by Messrs. Wilson and Hoehling.
In disposing of the matter the court
appointed Messrs. Peter and Hoehlng re-
ceivers to take charge of the funds due
the defendants, now in the possession OF
the District. and ordered that they should
continue the contract for the street clean
ing and sweeping to its completion in July
next. The decree also restrains the de-
PENDANTS from drawing the funds in dis
pute from the District, or disposing of
any OF the material now in their posses
sion and used for the conduct OF their
business.
The defendants noted an appeal from
the decision of the court.

FOR SALE BY ALL DRUGGISTS.

Form Combination.
American capitalists in Japan. according
to information received al the Japanese
Legation have formed trust with Mural
Brothers, the large tobacco firm. 1t is the
first large undertaking where Americans
and japanese have formed a commercial
combination.
The capitalization is u. coo. 000 ven. and
is held IN equal parts by the Murais and
Americans. The information received is
TO the effect that this is the first of Sc
ries OF trusts TO be created with the jap
anese.
The report says; AS far as one can see
as yet he new treaties have made very
little. if any, difference in the facilities
for foreigners doing business in japan.
Perhaps it is too soon TO expect any mark
ed cnange. especially as so much doubt
seems to exist as 10 the exact legal status
of the foreigner. Business generally for
the importers is very dull outside of Gov
ernment requirements.
THE market for iron and steel has not
yet responded very fully to the prices
ruling in their place of manufacture.
Large orders have gone abroad for gas
tubing for the new oil wells opening out
on the west coast of this island. but the
orders have been overdone. Orders for
steel and iron sheets and bars have been
placed but at prices which leave the i'm
porter very little margin.
