RECEIVER DISCOVERS
UNLISTED. MATERIAL

The creditors of Lees Clothes Shop,
Incorporated, bankrupt, of 112 Mar
I ket street, would like to know how
three cases of overcoats got down in
the cellar, where only two ought to
be. Mortimer Lowry, the receiver,
says it's very strange.
There are about fifty coats in each
case, valued at from $40 to SIS each.
The cases of coats are not mentioned
In the schedules filed by the bank
rupt. but were found by Receiver
Lowry accidentally.
He was looking over the store yes
terday and tried to get down in the
cellar, but it was locked. That made
him suspicious, for he was supposed
to have the keys to everything He
broke off the lock, and forcing an
entrance found three huge lacking
cases all filed with overcoats.
Two Cases Put Down March 1e.
He started an investigation, which
developed that two of the cases
had been put into the cellar March
IL as security to Max Frank, who In
dorsed a $500 note for the bank
rupts.
This came out also at the recla
nation proceedings brought yestsr-
day before Bankruptcy Referee Ed
win @. Adams by Max Frank, of s22
Broadway, New York, for the recoY-
cry of the two cases of coats, whlch
are now in the possession of the re-
ceiver, and which Frank claims as
his security.
The Lees Clothes Shop corporation
consisted of Moses H. Newman,
president; Adolph Ballxind. secretary
and treasurer, and Elijah Newman.
Lease in BaIkind's Name
Adolph Balkind explained on the
stand yesterday that the lease to the
building at liz Market street was in
his name and that he put the two
cases of coats down the cellar for
Frank, to be held there until an al
legged chattel mortgage, Franks Sc
curity, was discharged.
He insisted that there were only
two cases of coats there, however.
Nathan Bilder, of counsel for the
receiver, then called Mr.. Lowry to the
stand and he testified that he found
three cases of oyercoats In the cellar,
where Balkind claimed there were
only two. The receiver now has pos
session of all the coats.
Referees Close Questioning.
Referee Adams closely questioned
Frank on the stand yesterday re-
garding the note for $4,000 he said he
indorsed
Frank explained that he Endorsed
the $1,000 note and also twenty-five
notes for 800 each. One note was to
be paid weekly after March IL, until
all were paid. At present three notes
have been protested and ten have
been paid, leaving a balance of $500
on the original note.
What puzzles Referee Adams, how
ever, is why neither the cases of
coats nor the claim of Frank were
mentioned in the bankrupt's sched-
ules. Balkind attempted to explain
this, but did not get very far.
did you realize that the alleged
chattel mortgage was not in your
schedules?" the referee asked of Bal
kind
my attorney advised that it was
not necessary to list It," he said.
The matter was finally adjourned
until tomorrow when an attempt will
be made to straighten out the tangle.
The liabilities of the Lees corpora
ton are given as $9556, and assets
as s4,556.

MUST PROVE WIFE is /
HURTING HIS BUSINESS

DR.. ]. Louis White. of 10 Halsted
street, East Orange, will have to eX-
plain to the Court of Chancery next
week just how his wife is talking
about him and injuring his practise.
or else continue to pay her SIS a week
alimony pending his suit for divorce.
He was before ice Chancellor Emery
yesterday afternoon because he has
run behind about S115 in the alimony
and counsel fee. He said his wife's
activities and the warm weather had
initiated against his business.
The vice-chancellor saw no reason
In that for running into arrears. He
told DR.. White that he would have to
keep the alimony payments up to date
or discontinue his suit. He ordered
him to pay $40 on account. He did,
however. give DR.. White a chance to
prove that his wife is injuring his
practise, and the physician will at
tempt to do that next Tuesday by
affidavits, which are now being pre-
pared by his counsel. Hunt & Ander-
son.
DR.. White came into court on the
application of his wife's counsel, Isa-
dore Kalisch, for an oruer adjudging
him in contempt of court, for not pay
ing the alimony and counsel fee. The
latter was for 500, payable in weekly
instruments of $25.
In his suit, DR.. White named Robert
he said, had met his wife at Atlantic
City. She is now living with her par
ents. Mr.. and Mrs A. Hartwyck, in

WOMAN DIES FROM
NEGLECTED MINOR CUTS
Continued from First Pagea


and that he left for fear that he
would be a witness to a murder.
From this statement, and it's cor
roboration by neighbors, the police
reached the conclusion that Corduan
had a fight with his wife either on
Sunday night or Monday morning
and gave her a beating, using some
sharp instrument. The wound on the
lip was thought at first to have been
inflicted with a revolver ball, but
after a careful examination by DR..
Minningham he said that it was in
flicted with some sharp instrument,
either an ice pick or a nail driven
through piece of wood.
Cannot Find Weapon.
Sergeant Godfrey and Detectives
Brex. Miller and Bell nave searched
the house in which the murder was
committed and the surrounding yards
for the instrument, but have been I'M
able to find it.
1t is believed that Corduan. after
seeing that his wife was injured
thought she was a little more
seriously injured than she had been
in other fights, remained home from
work Monday, but it is not thought
that he tried to relieve her suffering
or save her life.
Evidence in their three rooms and
kitchen showed that the woman had
been dragging her weakened body
about the house. The assault is sup
posed to have occurred in the third
room from the front. adjoining the
kitchen. Blood stains lead to the
front room and the bed in there was
found covered with blood. The door
facing between the rooms also is
blood stained, which indicate that she
clutched them to prevent herself from
falling.
The body was found only partially
dressed under the bed in the room
adjoining the kitchen, where it is be-
lieved 1t was placed by the husband.
In the front room the blood stained
sheets had been carefully covered.
In closet were found blood stained
sheet and towel. In a pail under the
sink in the kitchen were found a
blood stained nightdress and a skirt.
The police believe that the covering
up of this evidence was the occasion
of the husbands last visit and that
he endeavored to hide the body of his
wife for a few hours, at least, in
order that he might make his escape.
Corduan is of French extraction

Even the shock did not fully awaken her, but the com mand of Captain Cam brought her to her senses. She sprang from her bunk and slipping a large coat over her night gown opened the door. The water rushed in but she managed to reach the deck and get into boat This boat was struck by the falling funnel of the sinking ship and she was again thrown in the water She start ed to sink and was caught in the rig sing. This held her for a few mo ments and she does not remember wha ments and she does not remember what followed after for a time but she was finally picked up by another boat.
