SUES IN EFFORT TO
GET TRACE OF GOODS
OLD BANKRUPTCY CASE AGAIN
IN COURT
Trustee Claims Property Held by
Partners Is Being Retained by
Relatives of the Two
Men

Suit was yesterday filed in the su-
perior court by Fl. B. Rossiter, trustee
in bankruptcy for Jacob Desser and
Louis Lifrand, against Jacob Goldner
and Herman Desser, in which he asks
for an accounting of goods alleged to
have been given the latter by Lifrand
and Jacob Desser prior to the time they
were adjudged bankrupts
Jacob Desser and Lifrand carried on
a general merchandise business at 1922
Central avenue, and it is claimed by
the trustee that between May and
August last year they obtained credit
at wholesale houses, securing $4,000
worth of goods.
A large portion of these goods, he
believes, were transferred to the stores
of Jacob Goldner and Herman Desser.
relatives of the bankrupts, prior to
the proceedings in bankruptcy. Five
thousand dollars worth of goods came
into his hands, says the trustee, and
he thinks not more than $5400 worth
of merchandise could have been sold
between May and August. There is
yet unaccounted for $4,000 worth of
goods, he says, and seeks to recover
this amount.

VIII between tomorrow and June 1 re-
qulre more than 100000 laborers.
Work will start in light on the roads
which are the best favored by climatic
conditions and will be increased rap
idly until June l, when renewal and
regular work will be in full swing on
every road in the country. The aver
age number of men needed by each
of the large Chicago systems is 5000,
and the wages offered are to be about
the same as last year. when labor was
scarcer and men were needed.
For day laborers the wages range
between SIPS and $1.60 day, the
average being $1.40. The highest fig
ure is paid for what is called steel
gangs, who are employed in laying
steel rails.
This year the railroads expect to be
able to procure a much greater pro-
portion of American labor than usual,

been so good, and many men are out
