A CAST IRON BUBBLE.
Application for Receiver for Blown Up Fips
and Foundry Company.
BY the Associated Press. }

Trenton, N. j., June 20.-Apphcation
was made In the court of chancery to-
day by Andrew HI. McNeal, of Burling-
ton. N. j., for the appointment OF re-
cnlVer Tor the United States Cast Iron
Pipe and Foundry Company which has
fourteen plants at different points
throughout the United States, one of
which is located at Burlington. Other
plants are located at Buffalo, Cleveland,
Columbus, Ohio; Scotdale, Pa, and Wis
c0nsin, Kentucky, Ohio and Alabama. The
company was Incorporated about three
years ago with an authorized capital of
$40, 900, 900 to make cast iron pipe and
foundry work.
McNeal in his bill of complaint charges
extravagances and Encouragement in the
operation of the business of the company.
He further charges that the company has
been operated more with a regard for
the exploiting of the company's stock
~ the stock market than for the practi-
cal utilization Of the companys works;
that from its organization in the spring
of 1901 the company's management was
dominated by General Samuel Thomas
whose principal occupation, McNeal says,
was that of q promoter of companies and
explolter OF stocks. McNeal further
charges that since the spring of 1901 the
company was dominated by its president,
George B. Hayes, whose associates ne al
leges, were inanciers and exploiters of
stocks. 1t is averred that the plant at
Buffalo is operated with loss of 100000
and that plants at West Superior, Bridge
port. South Pittsburg and Newport We're
dismantled and rendered useless and that
oil of these plants were acquired at ex
ccssive prices 1t is also charged that
fol- the purpose of exploiting stock
statements to the pubic were published
showing nearly s1,OOO.OOo surplus which
McNeal claims are not true.

THE DICK BILL.
DO the People Understand What This Measure
Meansl

A gentleman who has given much time
and study to military matters, tells the
News and Observer that he seriously
doubts whether this State ought to or
ganize its State Guard under the Dick
bill. He says:
Il cannot believe that our people under
stand that the right of the State to main
tain a militia force is to be given over
TO the Federal Government. The little
increase, in the way of apportionment is
nothing, as compared with the right.
And as an enlisted man / am now con
sidering whether or not / can consistently
accept anything under it. National
Militia is all right, but that is no reason
why we should consent to give up our
State militia. In illustration, / make
only one query of number:
Suppose an occasion should arise and
the President should call out for nlne
months service outside OF the State all
of our forces, and that thereafter occa-
sion should arise within the State to call
out the military TO enforce the laws
would not the Governor of North Caro-
lima have to call on the President of the
United States for a military force to ell
force North Carolina laws?" But / con-
tend, that apart from the action of the
officers in their meeting in Raleigh,
neither the Governor as commander in
chief. nor the Legislature. has adopted
the Dick bill. nor could they do it and
bind the enlisted men under their former
enlistments.
but. and this is important. if the
State OF North Carolina accepts the ap-
preparation, under the BILL will she not
nv so doing accent it,
1T may be that l am wrong. but dc
not so see it,
