ASKS FOR RECEIVER
FOR IRON PIPE TRUST
Andrew Fl. McNeal of Burlington,
N. j., Makes Application to
Court of Chancery.
HE CHARGES EXTRAVAGANCE.
Says Fourteen Plants Have Been
Operated More With Regard
to Exploiting Stocks Than
to Paying Dividends.
HE CHARGES ExTRAvAGANCE.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Trenton. n. J., June ao-Application was
made in the Court of Chancery to-day by
Andrew II. McNeal of Burlington. y. J..
for the appointment of a receiver for the
United States Cast Iron Pipe and Foundry
Company, which has fourteen plants at
different points throughout the United

lington.
Other plants are at Buffalo. Cleveland.
consin. Kentucky. Ohio and Alabama. The
company was incorporated about three
years ago with an authorized capital Of $3e.-
0coc0o. to make cast iron pipes and do
foundry work.
McNeal. in his bill of complaint, charges
extravaganza and mismanaSement 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 in the
stock market than for the practical utiliZa-
tion of the companys works: that from its
organization In the spring of 1901 the COM
pany's management was dominated by Cen
eral Samuel Thomas. whose principal Occu-
patton, McNeal says. was that of pro-
moter of companies and exploiter OF stocks.
McNeal further charges that since the
spring Of 1901 the company was dominated
by Its president; George B. Hayes. whose
associates, he alleges. were financiers and
exploiters of stocks. 1t 10 averred that the
plant at Buffalo is operated at a loss Of
100000 and that plants at West Superior.

that all Of these plants were acquired at

1t is also charged that for the purpose OF
exploiting stock statements to the public

which McNeal claims is not true.

Brother Says Former Lieutenant
Governor Is in Chi
cago.
TWO WITNESSES EXAMINED.
.. a. Demming Testified Regarding
Money Spent for Insurance
z Legislation by st. Louis
Agencies.

Former Lieutenant Governor John a. Lee
did not appear before the Grand Jury yes
terday morning as expected
About noon. Circuit Attorney Folk re-
ceived a telephone message from Robert E.
lee, the former Lieutenant Governors
brother. who stated that John A. Lee had
gone TO Chicago on business. and was de-
tanned there. Lee IS stopping at the Great
Northern Hotel in Chicago.
The report that John H. Carroll is also
in Chicago gave rise TO considerable specu-
lation at the -Four Courts Carroll also Is
wanted as a witness before the Grand
Jury.
Wher Lee did not appear yesterday morn
ing and It was learned that he is in Chi
cago. It was recalled bv persons around the
Circuit Attorneys office and Grand Jury
rooms THAT nearly always before going be-
fore the Grand Jury as a witness, Lee
makesea trip TO Chicago.
In the last week Circuit Attorney Folk
has unearthed much Information which is
said TO connect Lee with matters of which
he has told nothing, and the former Lieu
tenant Governor is badly wanted as wit
ness to verify these statements.
Homer r. Mann, formerly member OF
the House of Representatives from kansas
City. and ]. A. Flemming. a ST Louis insur-
ance man. Were the only witnesses ex-
amined.
1t is not believed that Mr.. Mann made an
important witness. Circuit Attorney Folk
/ has received anonymous letters from Chi
cago stating that Mann was cognizant of
+ facts concerning certain deals In the Lesis-
lature four years ago when he was MEM
ber.
Mann entered a general denial and de-
clared the letters came from political enc
mics who sought to injure him. Persons
J who recall Mr. Mann's record In the House
declare that he was particularly. vigorous in
fighting for certain legislation which he con-
sidered good for his Kansas City constit-
uents. but could not remember that he was
ever particularly interested in any OF the
! bills which are known to have been favored
by the combine.
/, Mr. Flemming was expected to supply the
5 link between the combine and the insur-
ance agencies. but ii is said that he did
not do so He mentioned the names of John
H Carroll and r. L. Macy. Representative
4 from Ray County.
He gave the name of man who told him
|, that for $3.50 Carroll would stop any un-
!; friendly legislation. and also told of S7'so
; that had been paid by the insurance
!: agencies.
i Flemming probably will be recalled as
. witness and Macy will be suhpoenaed to
appear before the Grand Jury Tuesday.
Former Lieutenant Governor Lee is eN-
pected to be present at the Grand Jurys
session tomorrow.
