CHARGED IN
SUIT over BONDS
Action Brought to Prevent the
Trust Company From
Selling Securities

Arthur Crane yesterday brought suit
against the Union trust company to
enjoin it from selling the property of
the Sierra Nevada water and power
company in satisfaction of mortgage.
pursuant to a Judgment obtained in the
superior court of Calaveras county. The
Union trust company holds a mortgage
over the properties of the corporation
to secure an outstanding bond issue of
1,275 bonds of $1,000 each. Crane
charges that the bonds were fraudu-
lently issued and distributed and were
improperly taken out of the treasury
of the water company. that no con-
sideration was given for them, and
that the trust company took them with
full knowledge of the fraud.
The records Of the water company
show, Crane asserts, that in September,
1905, properties of the corporation
worth not more than $4,000 were pur-
chased for $4,000, 600 in stock OF the
corporation, and a bonus Of s1.100,000
of the bonds was attempted to be added
to the stock payment. This fraudulent
transaction, Crane states, did not con-
stitute an issue of the bonds.
Judge Seawell signed an order di-
recting the trust company to show
cause this morning why it should not
be enjoined from selling, buying or in
any way dealing with the bonds.

FULLER SUCCOMBS
TO HEART FAILURE
Death of Oldest Member Of Supreme
Bench on Anniversary Of Nations
Birth is a Fitting Tribute.

Sorrento, Maine, July 5.-Melyille
w. Fuller, appointed TO the supreme
bench from Chicago, Ill.,, by President
Cleveland in 1883, died suddenly at
his home in Sorrento at 6 o'clock Mon.
day morning of heart failure.
Apparently in his usual state of
Rnealth, he attended church yesterday
as was his way of spending the Sab.
bath, and his death was entirely un-
expected. There were no symptoms
of any ailments of the aged iurist
when he retired for the night.
A daughter, Mrs. Nathaniel Francis,
and Rev. ]. E. Freeman were at his
home when he expired. They had
been his guests for the past few days.
Funeral services will be held in Sor-
rento and the body will be taken to
5 sis old home at Chicago for burial.
Justice Fuller was for many years
one of the legal lights of Illinois and
Chicago, the latter place having long
been his home before his appointment
to the nations highest tribunal. He
was born in 1888 and was n years
oldaat death, having been So years old
when President Cleveland assigned
to him a place on the supreme bench,
where he participated In the great
legal questions which confronted the
United States for twenty-five years.
His death on the dawn Of the 134th
anniversary of the nations birth
seems a fitting tribute in that his
death therefore has become linked
with the nations greatest holiday.

plication to Blackstone in his uncle's
Office and a course of lectures at the
Harvard Law School fitted him for
the bar, and IN 1866 he commenced to

nership with another uncle, f. G. Full
Ter, with whom he at the same time
edited The Age. one of the leading
democratic papers in the state.
In 1856 he became president Of the
common council Of Augusta and per-
formed the duties OF city solicitor
After serving on the council board a
short time he resigned and moved to
Chicago. He soon became one Of the
leading members Of the bar of that
city.
Chief Justice Fuller's political ex
perienee had not been large. In 1862
he was a member Of the constitutional
convention Of Illinois. and in 1868 he
served a single term in the Legislature
Of the state In the convention Of
1876 he made a speech nominating
Thomas 4. Hendricks for president Of
The United States IN 1883 he was APP
