AFFA|RS::OF
 EATING HOUSES Thrown Into the Court Here and E. P. Bridge Is Tenn porarily Enjoined From Collecting Moneys.
SEAMAN FILES SUIT
Declares That Bridge Has Moneys of the Firm and Is About to Dispose of the Business-Terms of Agree ment.

The affairs of the Cotton Belt railroad eating houses at the local Cotton Belt shops and at Illmo, Mo-,
 have been thrown into court here and last night Chancellor John M.
 Elliott of the Jefferson chancery
 court issued an order restraining
 the Cotton Belt and Iron Mountain
 Railroad companies and the Cotton
 Belt Savings and Trust company
 from paying over certain moneys
 to Frank P. Bridge, one of the
 partners in the company that owns
 and operates the two eating houses.
 The restraining order was is- sued at the instance of w. J. D.
 Seaman. the other member of the firm, and he also requests the court to dissolve the partnership between them, appoint a master to settle the affairs of the concern and name a receiver to take charge | and make final disposition of the 1 businesss. A permanent injunction is also asked for to prevent the | Cotton Belt and Iron Mountain :; Railroad companies and the Cotton
 Belt Savings and Trust company
 paying any moneys to Bridge, now l due or that may become due. l In his complaint Seaman says he 1 and Bridge entered into CO., partnership to operate the Cotton Belt eating houses at Illmo, Mo-, \ d at this place. Bridge put $1O,- GOO in the business and Seaman $4OO The latter, who was an ex- perienced man, agreed to manage and superintend both places without salary for his time and services, his efforts to be equal to one-third interest in the business.
 The business was conducted
 smoothly, the plaintiff says, until April 9, when Bridge made con- tract with the Brown News con- pany transferring the two eating houses, which were purchased from R. A. Bird for $1O,000. Bridge, ac- cording to the plaintiff, was also to receive money from the Cotton Belt for the building at Illmo, and $4,0OO from the Brown News com pany for furniture and fixtures to reimburse him in the sum of $1O,- | 00o and $1,OO0 as interest on that money.
 Seaman says by the agreement in the contract he was to receive the
 assets of the company and was
 given the privilege to collect debts,
 which were figured as compensation
 for hls services. Plaintiff says
 Bridge collected all the debts and
 holds the assets of the company. In
 addition, Seaman says Bridge has
 collected more than $5,00O and is
 about to receive 1000 for the
 eating house building at Illmo and
 has s3,00O in his possession paid . i'm by the Cotton Belt and Iron
 Mountain Railroad companies for
 board bills of employees. The ac-
 counts due the firm, Seaman says,
 are also in Bridges possession and
 twenty head of hogs.

One of the biggest things done in
the United States in many years has
been the uncovering of the big land
frauds in the state of Oregon and
other western states. The investlga-
ton involved United States senators,
congressman, United States attorneys,
lawyers, professional men, business
men and women high in social circles
of the west. BY the vigilance of the
government detectives and prosecnt-
ors many of the grafters have been
sentenced to prison, Senator John
Mitchell died from the exposure and
disgrace and others are still on trial
A splendid article on this investiga-
ton is published in the October num-
Der OF the American Magazine, now
on the news stands. The invesiga-
ton shows one thing very conclusive
ly, that many people were drawn in
to these frauds because the custom
had been followed so long that it was
not regarded as a crime. The article
in the American gives much to think
about, and should interest every
American.

The lady representative of the La
dies Home Journal who visited forty
two of the leading churches in the
Middle West states, and only got so
very few attentions, made the mis-
take Of not coming farther south and
into the smaller communities. The
big church is a frost in many cases so
far as giving the welcome to strang-
ers that would be expected in the
house of worship. And sometimes the
little churches initiate this cheap
form Of smartness, but most of the
country churches are warm-hearted
and open-handed

News comes from Dallas that Bon.
durant, the Corsicana-Pa Palestine inter
urban promoter, has been arrested by
United States officers charged with
fraudulent use of the mails. ]. V.
Watkins Of Corsicana, also identified
with the same proposition, was ar.
rested at the same time on the same
charge. Some months ago the Herald
found occasion to severely criticise
the methods of these promoters, and
for its trouble was threatened with a
libel suit. However, Notwithstanding
the objection this paper had taken to
some of the methods of promoting, It
pleads guilty to being almost persuad-
ed that the proposition was bona fide.
and now regrets that our dreams have
so soon ended.
