Morris, ST., Col. Clay, Miss Belle Nor.
ris, J. A. Glandon and Louis Mckee.
Linz Bros. have brought two civil

for 5000, charging that be took that
amount OF goods while working FOL
them, and one against Geo. A. Norris
ST., and W. w. Fry for o. 1900, charg'
ing that they converted" some dia'
monds and a watch, which were de-
posted at the Savings Bank Of Mex
leo.
Mr.. Fry, attorney for Mr.. Morris
says there is nothing in either one o.
these suits. Mr.. Fry was included II
