-
Action Taken by Court at Re-
quest of Creditors in
Washington.

The Hotel POwhatan, at 18th street

day passed into the hands of receivers.
The action was taken at the request of
local creditors to forestall a threatened
suit by out-oftown persons having
claims against the Lewis Hotel Com
pany. a. corporation which owns and OPP
crates the hosiery.
According to Attorneys William Henry
White and E. S Duvall, jr, represent
ing the local creditors, the company eK-
poets to tide over the present difficulty.
The hotel will continue business under
the receivers, j. Barrett Carter, Thad-
deus c. Dulin and Edward s. Duvall,
jr., who gave a bond of $4,000
Consent to Receivership.
The order of Justice Barnard naming
the receivers directs and empowers them
to carry on the business without inter-
ruption. The directors of the company
have consented to the receivership.
The plaintiffs in the suit in equity filed
against the company and it's officers are
q. G. Cornwell & Son. c. Engels' Sons,
Duin & Martin. MiIburn Hester & Co..
W. b. Moses & Sons and George a. Full
er Company. They tell the court the
Lewis Company is indebted for equip
ment and for goods and merchandise to
the extent Of sl10.O0o. The company
owns the building which is valued at
s325.Co but is encumDered for SOD, COO
The stock and equipment of the hotel is
placed at $685. coo.
A large portion Of the indebtedness
OF the company is overdue, the plain
tiffs say, and the corporation finds it
self at present without funds with
which to pay its obligations.
