TRY TO CONSERVE
THOMPSON ESTATE S
Banker And His Receivers
Make Reply to Woman's
Suit.

UNToNToWN, Pa, April 11.-Jos-
iah v. Thompson; his receivers, w.
G. Laidley, j. P. Brennan and A. A.
Thompson, and Fuller Hogsett and
Davtt L. Durr, petitioners for the re:
ceiyership filed an answer In Common
Pleas Court here this afternoon 10
the petition OF Mrs. Elizabeth krem-
er Of Uniontown. administrator OF the
estate Of Albert T. kremer. requlr-
ing them to show cause why she
should not be permitted to intervene
for the purpose of issuing an e1ecu-
tion OH judgment held by the estate
of A. T. Kremer against Josiah V.
Thompson. Mrs. kremer's petition
was filed last February %.
Dentals Of the allegations In the petl'
tion that the Thompson estate was be-
ing consumed by the accumulation Of
interest and taxes; that collateral Sc
curIties are being sold at a sacrit1ce
and that any valid attachments have
been issued in other Jurisdictions, are
made in the answer.
The answer states that 400 persons
are interested in the receiYership pro-
ceedings and that the value of the
Thompson estate is SO large and the
affairs So complicated that its sale by
the sheriff or any forced sale would net
only small portion of It's actual val
ne, and would be an unnecessary sac
rifice.
The financial condition OF the coun-
try is such that the Thompson estate
cannot be conserved, the answer states
and by retaining the properties until
the court deems it proper to dispose
of them better price can be realiz-
ed. The answer states that the amount
realized from the sale OF these prop.
critics should be nearly sufficient to
pay of the entire Indebtedness OF the
Thompson estate:
The answer closes: Some attach
ment proceedings have been institute
ed, your respondents are advised by
counsel. We aver and claim that same
create no leave for preferential claim
against any asset inSthe hands of the
receivership Any assets in the re-
ceivership have been taken in exec.
tion under writ or process issued by
an order Of court.
"Mrs. Kremer is one Of 1000 unse-
cured creditors and any execution
granted her would be prejudical and
would result in the sacrifice of the as
sets.
"The assets in the hands of the re-
ceivers are estimated at 'S70,00o,000.
The bulk Of these assets are pieces
OF coal land encountered by mortgages
and other liens.
"Owing to the unnatural financial
conditions at the present aud depress-
ed financial conditions existing in the
past which have been untavo:able to
the sale Of coal lands, the coal lands
would have had to have been dispos.
ed Of at big sacrifice.
''Any decree affecting the validity
of the receivership creates confusion
as. to the title of property sold and
tends to prejudice other unsecured
creditors and persons with whom tho
receivers have dealt and incurred obli-
cations"
The answer, which was filed by At,
torneys Watson and Freeman Of Pitts
burgh, Is signed by J. v. Thompson
Laidley, Brennan, a. A. Thompson,
Hogsett and DUR.

Church Society Recently Celebrated
Sixtieth Anniversary-Extensi I'm.

Manchester, Nov. 25.-Fire, believed
to have started from an overheated
furnace, totally destroyed the Congre-
gational church here Thursday even
ing. The loss is estimated at $4,000
partially covered by insurance.
The flames were discovered about )
o'clock and 1remen responded imme-
diately to the alarm. The fire did not
appear dangerous when the hremen
arrived and was believed to have been
under control when the flames again
rurst forth with great intensity. Des-
pite the efforts of the fire department,
AIDED by volunteers the flames con-
tihred to spread, soon enveloping the
entire building. Practically nothing
was saved.
The brick veneered structure was All
old one but extensive improvements
were completed last summer, which
made the building one OF the most
modern of its kind. A pipe organ,
valued at between $4,000 and $4,000
was destroyed. 4 new heating plant
had just been installed while new
doors had also been completed. Both
the interior and exterior had been re-
decorated this summer.
Rev w. j. Suckow is pastor of the
church. The siXtieth anniversary was
celebrated several weeks ago.

LAYING CABLE UNDER RIVER
Telephone Wires Between Davenport
and Rock Island Under Water.

Davenport, Nov. 25.-The work Of
laying a submarine telephone cable
under the Mississippi river from Rock
Island to Davenport was begun under
the supervision OF the Central Union
Telephone Company, of Rock Island.
When this work is completed, all tele-
phone wires now on the government
bridge will, be taken down and the new
cable will take its place. The electric
hight cables on the bridge will, how
ever, remain. As 1t was necessary to
stretch new cable across the bridge
at this time, II was thought best TO
submerge the cable and make the work
permanent and more safe.
This will be the first submerged tele-
phone cable placed under the Mssiss
ippi on the entire upper river. The
cable is Of the submarine type, the
same as those placed across the ocean
and contains thousands OF wires which
may be added to the service as needed.
To protect the cable. it must be placed
from five to six feet below the river
bottom. and a United States dredge
has been secured to do this work. 1t
is not known when the work will be
completed and when the cable will be
ready for use The cable will be placed
ferry landing to point on the -levee
between Brady and Main streets. Dav-
export. The Iowa Telephone Company
will furnish the conduits on the Iowa
side to the river bank. ~

Chief Justice w. D. Evans dissents
from the majority ruling. He declares
that in his opinion Towne shot in self

He says:
The evidence in this case is over

Upon this record L think there was no
warrant for finding by the jury that
defendant did not act in self defense.
