A few weeks ago Mr.. Sheridan
made a voluntary assignment in favor
of his creditors. His liabilities were
placed at $175,000, while his assets
totaled about $4,000. Following
the assignment, accusations that
Sheridan's business transactions were
irregular were revived and witnesses
were summoned before the grand
jury to testify. Many Of these wit
nesses were persons named as credit
ors in the assignment made by Mr..
Sheridan. Indictments charging Mr..
Sheridan with obtaining money un-
der false pretenses followed.
