Two Original Suits Are Filed In the chaneery Court, and an interVen- ton Is Filed In the Fed
 eral Court.

Litigation In reference to the Conti- mental Security Redemption Company Is getting lively. In addition to the original bill filed by George A. Blinn, Jr., ct al, under which J. B. Cobbs was appointed receiver, and the bankruptcy proceed ings filed by Elmo Massengale and others, two original bills and one intervention were filed yesterday in referenc to this company.
 In the United States Court Browse T. Bringier filed an intervention In the orig inal case of George A. Bllnn, Jr., ct al. vs. the Continental Security Redemption Company ct al. for the sole purpose of moving to dismiss the suit out of the United States Court for want of jurisdlc- tion of the parties thereto.
 The petitioner says that he Is a cred itor and debenture bondholder of said company, but that he cannot join in the bill of complaint in this suit, although said bill is filed as a general creditors bill, because of the courts lack of juris- diction over the parties to the suit as shown upon the face of the petition, in that the compliments and some, if not all, of the defendants are citizens of the same State-Alabama.
 He states that he has therefore filed a general creditors bill in the Chancery Court of Jefferson County against the same parties as are defendants in this suit and has prayed the Chancery Court to appoint a receiver 10 take charge and exercise control under the orders of said court of all the properties of the five companies absorbed and consolidated by the Continental Security Redemption Company.
