Charles S. Bowemaster, we'll
known real estate dealer, started a
$1,000 assumpsit suit in the circuit
court this morning against Edward
F. Peck and r. c. Iliff, two south OF
tawa farmers. The action was
brought to collect a commission for
a real estate transaction which Mr..
Bowermaster alleges is due him.
The plaintiff claims that the de.
PENDANTS had some South Ottawa land
for sale, and that he found a pur.
chaser for them, at a price above
their own offer. He claims that he
had contract for the sale of the
land, and that he closed a deal with
the U. S. Silica Co., for its purchase.
The deal, he alleges, was postponed
by an oral agreement, but was later
put through. He claims that the de
PENDANTS after closing the sale re-
fused to pay him his commission.
Attorney l.. o. Browne has been re
aimed to represent Mr. Bowermaster

by Mr.. Cullen.
In the bill, which was filed today,
Mr. Cullen stated that he filed a petit
tion with the city council, asking that
Mr.. Jordan be compelled to remove
the steps and canopy. He claims that

against the edict of a city ordinance.
The canopy and stops arc alleged
by Mr. Cullen to be permanent OBJ
structions to the sidewalks.
