CHARGE AGAINST MORSE.
Telephone, Telegraph and Gable
Stockholders Make Accusations.

EDWARD s. Collie a Newark lawyer, was yes
terday appointed a eo-receiver for the Telephone,
Telegraph and Gable Company OF America, which
became involved in insolvency proceedings re-
Gently. and for which Charles M. Myers, also OF
Newark, was made receiver. Vice Chancellor
Emery made the appointment after hearing an
argument made by George F. Tenant, Of Jersey
City representing stockholders OF that company
Although Mr.. Tenant admitted that the com
pany was insolvent he declared that Myers was
the choice Of a secret agent OF the American
Telephone and Telegraph Company, and that the
proceedings were brought against the inselvent
corporation in the interests OF that company
It is further asserted that Charles W. Morse
Of New York through Misrepresentation. got
control Of the stock Of the Telephone Telegraph
and Gable Company of America. and that ne is
in collision with the American Telephone and
Telegraph Company to put the independents"
out Of business. When Morse got control OF the
stock. he represented Il is alleged that he want
ed TO complete the plants of the Boston and
New York Telephone and Telegraph Company,
which vas one OF the subsidiary companies OF
the Telephone and Telegraph Company OF
America; that he was In sympathy with the In
dependent companies, and that he would not
! transfer his holdings to the American company.
After getting control it is further alleged that
he placed in secret control Of the Telephone,
Telegraph and Gable Company, and also OF the
Boston company, James B. Curtis. OF New York.
il is asserted by the petitioners further that the
Telephone, Telegraph and Gable Company OF
America has had no income since 1901, and that
its assets are being wasted in exorbitant sal
aries
All these allegations are denied by the other
I side.

American Sugar Refining Company. Eight de-
Gnurrers to the indictments were substituted.
The officials hope to have the indictments
Quashed on the ground that the charges are not
specific. which does not give the accused men
reasonable knowledge and clearness in prepaF-
ing their defence. In one Of the indictments
GuiIford and Pomeroy and Edwin Earle and G.
Goodioe Earle the two latter representing the
firm OF w H. Edgar & Son. of Detroit. are
charged with conspiracy. in that on April l,
1904 the four men conspired and agreed with
one another and Lowell NJ. Palmer and Thomas
P. Riley, representatives Of the so-called Sugar
Trust. to furnish sugar shipments to W. H. Ed
gar & Son. Of Detroit by way Of the New York
Central for 1S cents a hundred pounds. cents
below the legal tariff rate.
To this conspiracy indictment two demurrers
are interposed, che In behalf OF Nathan Gull
ford. and the other for Frederick I. PomerOy.
II Is eontended that the acts alleged do not con-
stitute conspiracy, and are not the proper basis
for an Indictment Under the laws OF the United
States. 1t is argued. the alleged conspiracy was
merged in the substantive offences therein al
legged, so TO be a bar and preclude any prose-
cution for an alleged conspiracy Not only are
the acts named not punishable as conspiracy,
IL Is asserted, but they do not constitute q joint
offence and there has been q mtsjOinder OF
offences In the indictment The offences COM
planned OF are not set forth. 1t is finally claimed,
with sufficient particularly 20 enable the de-
PENDANTS to make their defence with reasonable
know ledge and ability.
Another indictment involving the New YorA
Contra! as a corporation and Nathan Gutford
alleges that the latter accepted shipments IN
1902 at less than the legal rate Of 70 cents a
hundred pounds. Two demurrers are interposed
10 this Indictment. ono for the railroad and a
second by the defendant Gunford. The same
specifications are made as in the first demurrer,
that the indictment Is insufficient in law and
lacks the necessary legal particulars
The three indictments TO which pleas OF not
guilty have been allowed to stand are against
the American Sugar Refining Company. the
American Sugar Refining Company OF New York
and G. CSoodlOe Edgar and Edwin Earle
Judge Thomas decided that as he would not
rers. and that as Judge Holt was TO act In the
case he would send the cases directly 20 the
latter Edgar and Earle were allowed until to-
morrow to file any demurrers or motions they
might desire TO inteTpose. Judge Holt will hear
the arguments on all the indictments on June 5.
