A PARTNERSHIP DISPUTE.
Mrs. Gertrude scoit's Petition for an
Injunction Against II. Il. Wilder.

Mrs Gertrude ScOfts Petition for an
Injunction Against II. II. Wilder.
Matters in dispute between the partners
in the firm of H. T. Wilder & Co., coal
dealers in this city, became complicated
yesterday, when, after bill Tor dissoiu-
ton of the partnership and the appoint
rleut of n receiver had been nleu on
Wednesday by II. T. Wilder, one OF the
members of the firm the other partner,
Gertrude Scott, through Attorneys T. A.
and Wilton ]. Lambert. filed lengthy
peti,ion in equity asking the court for an
Injunction against further interference
nv Wilder in the business and demand
ing an accounting from him for money
claimed to have been collected by him
without authority.
Mrs. Scott states in her petition that on
November /, 1899. she and Mr.. Wilder en-
tered INTO copartnership agreement for
one year whereby it was stipulated in
writing that she was to place in the
business the sum of $4,000 and was to sup
ply an experienced manager in lieu of
her personal services; that the defendant
was to devote his skill and attention to
the business and take the chance OF conf
pensation therefor out of share of eX-
pected profits. She charges that by fol-
loving the judgment of the defendant
the business suffered losses which nearly
absorbed all profits; that. in violation of
agreement, the defendant withdrew con-
siderable sums from the partnership
moneys to which. it is said. he was not en-
titled Notwithstanding the fact the part
nership expired by November l. 1900, and
that never at any time had Wilder had
any right or control over receipts and
disbursements. it is declared that upon
October 81 he proceeded to cole,
amounts due from customers to IT,

the same. He also. it is alleged. obtaint
