BANKRUPTCY PETITION
FOLLOWS SANITY TRIAL
w. D. Montgomery Asks Courts to
Straighten His Tangled Affairs.
Revelations Promised

William D. Montgomery, former pro.
weeks ago, under peculiar circum-
stances, was sent to the insane ward al
the county hospital on a charge of in
sanity preferred by his foster daughter
was released wednesday and yesterday
filed petition in bankruptcy in the
United States district court. His liza
bilities are placed at s23162S and his
assets at $221415
Following Montgomerys first appear
ance before the insane commission
which continued his trial for two weeks,
sensational assertions regarding the
conditions under which his hotel was
sold and the causes which led to his
confinement in a cell of the insane
ward at the county hospital, became
public.
Ostenslbly the bill of sale showed
that the Lincoln hotel had been sold to
Mrs. Belle McWilliams for $500. Later
DR.. Vaughn, who had arranged the sale
acting for Montgomery under power OF
attorney, explained that the sale was
for $4,000 and rooming house valued at
$1100, which was not included in the
bill of sale but which had been turned
over to his (Vaughn's) daughter on q
claim of Indebtedness.
The wholesalers board of trade, which
is Montgomery's principal creditor,
learned the facts and Montgomery
petition of bankruptcy is expected to
bring out the inside history of the
affair.
After Montgomery had been in the
hospital for twenty-four hours physi-
clans there gave it as their opinion that
he was perfectly sane but his release
was not possible until his hearing be-
fore the commission yesterday.

learning. Several Of the professors have
not yet departed for their summer vaca-
lions, but are rapidly completing ar

not only had secured the deepest affec-

come to several OF her graduates who
are taking special courses in our univcr-
