CARRY AFFAIRS
OF Wild BANK
TO FOUR COURTS
Failure of Institution Year
Ago Results in Much
Litigation.

Legal action resulting from the
failure of the j. F. Wild & Co. state
bank more than year ago has been
carried to four Marion county
courts.
This case has entered more county
courts in various ways than any
other matter that has come before
authorities in recent years.
The first litigation brought to a
courts attention was the petition
for a receiver filed before Probate
Judge Mal1lon E. Bash.
Eugene H. Iglehart and Richard
L. Lowther were appointed receiv-
ers and took steps toward sale OF
all the company's assets, including
Florida holdings, which were con-
sidered extremely valuable during
the boom period.
Iglehart since has withdrawn as
co-receiver and Lowther now IS pre-
pairing to pay depositorS 5 per
cent dividend in December that will
bring the amounts paid to various
individuals who had interest in the
bank to 6215 per cent. Lowther is
sure that before the receiversh1p
matter is closed 80 per cent will
be returned.
Indictments Are Pending
Indictments now are pending in
criminal court against John F. Wild
president: Otto Fisher, cashier and
John Craig Fisher and William P.
McNairy, officers Of the bank, for
bank embezzlement.
These indictments were filed April
20 and please in abatement and mo-
tions to quash have been filed since
then by defense attorneys.
Collins sustained the states de-
murrer to the abatement pleas and
now has the quash motions under
advisement.
In superior court two, Judge Linn
D. Hay plans to hear arguments
late this month on three suits filed
there 10 prevent 100000 worth of
accommodation paper from being
sold as assets of the bank in the
receivership cleanup.
The late Robert I Todd, preSi-
dent of the indianapolis Street Rail-
way Company, Frank M. Millikan,
local capitalist, and John j. 9ppel,
real estate broker, signed notes,
which were renewed, to the bank on
request of the banks officials.
Notes for Accommodation
The men contended that the notes
merely were for accommodation Of
the bank" and since no considera-
ton was involved in the transac-
ton and no interest paid on the
notes, they have no Salable value.
The most recent litigation involv-
ing the bank is the filing of suit
in superior court three by Lowther
against the Standard Accident In
surance Company of Michigan, seek
ing $4,000 on an insurance policy
taken by the bank, when solvent, to
protect the institution against losses
by theft, larceny or destruction. The
bank collected $4,000 on the policy
following the disappearance or
theft" of $271 500 of Liberty bonds
in November, 1925.

life.
The best way to meet the situa-

stand drout, and, if possible, car
also endure having their roots
flooded and deprived of air occa-

like geraniums and oleanders, are
exactly of this type of vegetation

HAVANA STICKS
ON QUOTAS

HAVANA, Feb. 16.-There was
every indication today that the Pan
American conference will adjourn
next week without a solution of the
immigration issue lin which the
United States is vitality interested.
There are two resolutions before
the conference: One that no Amer
lean republic may apply quota re-
strictions to immigration from an
other American country; the other
that any American republic may
restrict immigration from a non-
American continent.
The United States regards imn1i.
grafton as purely domestic ques-
ton and H. p. Fletcher, of the
United States delegation. served
formal notice upon the conference
that this country would never con-
sent to any agreement by which
another power could. dictate Wash.
ington's immigration policy.
