SUES PROTECTORS OFFICERS.
Receiver Charges Negligence Caused
Loss Of $125,ooo by Wilson's
DefaIcation.

PORT HURON, March 29.-Oharg-
ing that negligence was the cause OF
the loss OF upwards OF s125.000 by the
defalcation OF w. l.. Wilson, Receiv-
er Horace G. Shower, of the United
Protectors Fraternity, has filed a bill
in circuit court In which he asks for
an accounting with the officers OF the
defunct organization.
Those named in the bill are: Pres
ident " s. Boynton, Vice-President
@. c. Meisel, Secretary w. L. Wilson.
Treasurer A. A. Graves, supreme ex-
ecutive board, the above named Of
ficers and NJ. Wilson. F. T. Wolcott
and A. ID. Bennett; supreme trustees,
Albert Dixon, ID. p. Markey and <.
ID. Campbell.
Receiver Shower alleges that the Of
ficers of the company were negli-
gent in that they allowed w. L.
Wilson TO create a "secretary's fund"
by drawing money from the invest
ment fund of the order in violation
OF the laws of the fraternity. The re-
ceiver AYERS that the fraternity's
money should have been deposited In
three funds, the maturing benefit
fund. general fund and investment
fund, and that the officers OF the
fraternity should have protected the
funds and securities. This was not
done. the receiver alleges, and insead
the secretary was allowed to create
a fund upon which he could draw
checks.
Receiver Shower AYERS that the fra
ternity would not have been out OF
upwards Of $125.00O had the officers
OF the fraternity used due care and
diligence in guarding the funds OF
the fraternity in compliance with the
laws OF the state and Of the frater-
nifty.
The suit probably will come up for
a hearing at the April term OF cir
cult court

MCDONALD IN DISCARD.
Deputy Secretary Of state Board Of
Health In peposed.

LANSING, Mich, March 29.-J. f.
Mcdonald, deputy secretary for the
state board OF health for the past six
years will retire from that depart
ment. April /. II is said that politi-
cal differences between DR.. F. w.
Shumway and Mcdonald caused the
deputy to sever his connection.
During the primary campaign last
fall, Deputy Mcdonald called down
the wrath of his chief by his activi-
ties in behalf of Patrick III. Kelley as
a candidate for the Republican nom
nation for governor. DR.. Shumway
was occupying neutral position and
taking no active part in the campaign
and he did not consider it wise that
his employees should become too
energetic in behalf OF any particular
candidate.

Board Is In Bad.
Grom a stan Correspondence

LANSING, Mich, March 29.-The
story that DR. Bradley and Judge Rus
sell Will retire from the pardon board
is secuted here. Gov. Osborn is away
for a needed rest, and cannot be
reached. That Blakeslee, the Warner
appointee on the board, will retire,
