Injunction Case Is Being
Heard In Circuit.
Court.
PLANT is A GOLD MINE
Yielding a Net Profit of $780,
600 a Year For Two
Years.

The hearing OF the injunction suit
of L. M. Shepard, Secretary VS.. E. K.
Dewey, Manager of the City Light
Co., restraining Dewey from acting
as manager under a contract expir-
ing in April, 1911. was begun in cir
cult court yesterday morning and is
still in progress.
The formal reading of the petitions
opened the case. Shepard charged
that Dewey's management was in
competent and that he had, as secre-
tary, notified him of his disc barge
but he refused to vacate, hence the
suit filed ten days ago.
Dewey denied the allegations of
the plaintiff and alleged that at the
time be took charge of the plant it
was run down, practically insolvent
and under Shepard's management
losing money.
His contract provided that if he
did not put it on a money.making
basis in one year that the contract
&pld be terminated at the end of
the first year. At that time the plant
showed a net profit of more than
$4,000, above operating expenses.
At the end of the second year the
annual profits were more than $780,
600 and that upon the profits of
500, ZOO for two years there was due
him a % per cent. commission, and
that he was still due balance of
more than $1,000. The business
since April /, 1910, had continued to
increase and that the profits for this
year promised to be still more.
= Under the contract he was paid
$2,400 a year and his profits of about
$1,000 a year above the salary, had
been the subject of complaint and
when he declined to lessen the com
mission, the movement to Dust him
was started by Shepard. He claimed
that if ousted he would have no
means of knowing his part of the
profits under his unexpired contract
and that Shepard, being untitled for
the business, would let the business
again run down to its former
condition.
Shepard was the first witness and
was on the stand at the hour of ad
journment for dinner. He testified
that Dewey was incompetent, also
that he had not paid for gas and
electricity used in his residence and
had in his residence an electric
washing machine. not paid for,
worth S35. On cross examination he
admitted that there had been no
settlement with Dewey. to whom the
company owed commissions.
He told of the meeting held in
Kalamazoo Wednesday at which
Dewey's removal had been approved.
The court ordered him to wire for
the minute book with the records of
the meeting. which he said could
geach here by 10 o'clock tomorrow.
NShepard's attorneys protested, but
Judge Hanbery said copies of the
minutes were doubtful evidence and
ne wanted to see the book itself.
The case promises to be strongly
contested one, and will take the rest
of the term, which expires today.
Judge Hanbery refused to admit
any testimony bearing on the ques-
ton of accounting, ruling that this
was not the time to go into that
branch of the case.
The legality of the contract and
the right of removal are the points |
upon which the suit will be fought
out and decided. fAs'

consulted a trance medium before

could not have pulled the strings
to better advantage In getting just
about what they desired.

not require the perceptiveness of

who are the Queens" in this par

declared is much interested in

mayor for two or three days, Hobbs
was told to go to ONO with his
application. Hobbs then swore ven
geance.
Last fall when a recall for Mayor
Pratt started, Hobbs secured a Pc
tition and started out. While thus
engaged one night he chased one
of the city hall supporters of the
mayor from a saloon in which an
argument had taken place over the
merits of the recall.
Hobbs had become so obnoxious
in the recall matter that it was
deemed advisable at the city hall to
put him to work, and accordingly
he was given a place of some kind
by City Commissioner Armstrong.
After his appointment Hobbs
said: II am out of the recall bust
