President Of Mcneil Grain Com
pany to Sue the Weares.
SIOUX CITY, IowA-H. C. Mcneil,
president Of the Mcneil Grain company
Of this city, will in few days institute
suit against the Weare Commission COM
pany Of Chicago and Minneapolis for $37,-
900 retained by the Weare company when
that company fled charges against the
trade, Chicago. The Weares ASSERT that
Mcneil entered into a conspiracy with
Ben Jolley. confidential clerk in the
Weare office, to defraud them, and did
procure unlawfully some 100000. Further
than this the company caused the In
dictment of both Jelley and Mcneil by the
grand jury at Chicago.
Mcneil filed charges against the Weares
before the board Of trade and that body
heard evidence for several days. Finally
Tuesday, just before the decision was CIV
en- by the board, the Weare company pro-
duoed an Injunction, restraining that body
from continuing their investigation. This
Mcneil considers an admission Of defeat
and will lnow sue for possession Of the
$37, 900; further, he will claim heavy dam
ages from the company for injuring his
reputation. 5s
