ISAAC NOAR
IN TROUBLE.
Receiver Fisher
Wants to Get
Out.
Says That Noar Won't
Let Him Run the
Star Block.
Two Rulings by Judge Robinson.
Prince David Testifies-Hasey
Case Again.

few weeks ago Noar came into court
as receiver of the Star Block" alleg-
ing that he was allowing the property
to go to waste, depreciating its value,
and allowing it to remain in an insani-
tary condition.
Yesterday Fisher told his trouble to
the court and also offered his resigna-
ton as receiver for the property. He
charges Noar with all the things of
which Noar previously accused him.
Fisher says in his report that, upon
taking charge of the property, he found
the premises in a "disorderly and un-
clean condition and that he was or
dered to clean up by the Board of
Health. He now reports the property
in sanitary condition and repair.
Fisher further says that he request
ed from Noar a statement of rents due
| by the various tenants, but that Noar
refused and still refuses to give it to
him and that he was compelled to seek
the information from each individual
tenant at considerable unnecessary
trouble, annoyance and expense" Fish
er says he increased the total monthly
rental $3.50 and then says that sin
spite of the admonition of this Honor
able Court the said Isaac Noar has con-
tinuously abused, annoyed and vilified
the said Will E. Fisher, and interfered
hi tn I,ig
Fisher charges also that Noar caused
certain pipes to be constructed which |
made the place insanitary, and says
also that Noar collected rent from at
least one of the tenants and refused |
to pay it to the receiver. He alleges
further that Noar agreed to rent eleven |
rooms in the Star Block for $40 a month,
but that he took possession of fourteen
and refused to pay rents. By reason of
these acts land in view of the almost
continual annoyances to which he has
been subjected" Fisher asks leave to
resign.
The matter is set for hearing before
Judge Robinson on Wednesday morn
ing.
