A COMPLICATED AFFAIR
THE SAME INTERESTS INVOLVED IN
TWO SEPARATE SUITS.
Judges Allen and feathers Are Try.
ing Tbem-NaIue of a Turnip
P~atch-,ourt Cases.

The suit of the Indiana Trust Company,
guardian Of Margaret Vanderventer
against Oscar F. Mann and his wife to
cancel a deed was on trial before Judge
Allen, of the Circuit Court. yesterday. and
the hearing will likely continue all day to-
day. The trust company alleges that Mann
is a professional trader and by misrepre-
sensations traded Mrs. Vandeventer a
saloon lease, good will and fixtures for her
property on Prospect street. The plaintiff
asserts that Mrs. Vanderventer was not
capable of transacting her business at the
time, although ii vas some time before she
was adjudged insane.
1t is represented by the trust company
that Mrs. vanderventer's property was
worth $1,000, while the saloon lease. good
will and fixtures were worth but $500. 1t is
alleged that Mann represented that the
lease, good will and fixtures were worth
$500, while her property was of small
value. The trade was consummated by
Mrs. Vanderventer paying $50 in addition
to her property for the saloon. This was
the transaction that started a series Of
transfers that has resulted in many COM
plications. Judge Allen, of the Circuit
Court. and Judge Leathers, of the Superior
Court, are now trying to disentangle the
case. The suit in Judge Leathers's court
was brought by the Indiana Trust ompany
as guardian of Mrs. Vanderventer against
Charles Davis and George Seibert for pos
session of the saloon fixtures. Mrs. Van
derventer sold the saloon to John Holohan
and Edward Means when she was of I'M
sound mind for a small consideration. They
sold 1t to Davis and Davis transferred it
TO Seibert. Monday Judge feathers over
ruled a demurrer of the defendants which
set up the plea that the plaintiff offered
no restitution for restoring the property.
He held that the law protects insane per-
sons and he who deals with them does so
at his own peril. This decision, however,
has no immediate bearing on the case in
Judge Aliens court. The defendants in
this suit contend that there were no ap-
parent signs that Mrs. Vanderventer was
insane when they traded for the property
and that the deal was in good
faith.
There is only one thing certain in the
litigation, and that is that somebody will
have to be the loser. Whether this is Mrs.
Vanderventer, Oscar Mann, John Holohan
and Edward Means, Charles Davis or
George Seibert remains for the courts 10
decide. The decision of Judge Allen will
upset in a measure, all that has been done
by Judge Leathers, and the validity of a
series of four transfers will then have to
be run down to determine who is left out.

AS scheduled. the union plasterers re-
fused to go TO work yesterday morning be-
cause they were not granted an increase in
wages of 10 cents. an advance from 10 TO
80 cents an hour. The union represent but
about one-fifth of the total number OF
.plasterers in Indianapolis. and for. that
reason IL Is said they will have difficulty
In getting their demands. The union men
are already being paid 5 to 10 cents more
on the hour than nonunion plasterers, and
the union contractors say they cannot COM
pete with the nonunion contractors and
they have already lost many big jobs be-
cause they were underbid by contractors
employing cheaper labor, and unless the
union gives them protection, they cannot
maintain present prices. They say they
are not adverse to paying the union scale
L. the union gives them the proper protec-
ton from nonunion competition.

The master plumbers, who attempted to
send out helpers with their journeymen

that they had no plumbers to go 10 work.
The master plumbers were notified a month
ago that the journeymen plumbers would
refuse to work with helpers after May l.,

their intention without The
purpose of this is to do away with the ap-

ing to collect the rents, White having be-
come discouraged and abandoned the prop

ID. X. JOHNSON ACQUITTED.


David K. Johnson, a saloon keeper on

his saloon after II o'clock and being drunk.
One night after II o'clock Johnson and two
men were in his billiard room. which at

no one. A door was open leading TO the
saloon. which was a violation of the Nichol-
son law, but this charge was not embodied
