In @ petition fled before Federal District Judge Mayer yesterday, the firm's receivers asked permission to Dring auits against those to whom the money had been paid. This: status of the case was clearly ox-| plained to-day by a man closely! connected with the receivers, who were empowered by Judge Mayer to, take whatever court action is neces- wary for the recovery of the money. It i understood Mr. Evans turned over to the receivers ali of his per- sonal resoures valued at close to $1,000,000, and is devoting himself io straightening out the affairs of the company. The petition before Judge | Mayer yesterday was for the purpose of getting the Court to sanction restitution @ults, but the matter of «| proceeding against Mr. Kvans was. not discussed when the petition was | being drawn, It was said. | One hundred and twenty-three firme and individuals who accepted the checks of Mills & Gibb in payment of Mr. Evans's personal obligations were mentioned in the petition and scores | more who received checks for less than $1,000 each were not mentioned Suits will be instituted immediately for the recovery of all this money, it was stated at the office of Rushmore, Bisbeo & Stern, counsel to the re- | cetvers, Although @ court order has heen is- | sued directing the sale of all the prop- erty of the bankrupt firm at auction Nov, 15 it i@ understood a stockhold- ern’ committees is at work on a reor- ganization plan and ts receiving the co-operation of sume of the bondhold- rs.

But his owner wouldn't take $100,000 for him. He believes such a bargain would be simply burning up money -- And it’s one thing to burn up money and quite another and business-like proposition to boil down as they do in the New York Assay Office. Literally, that's what they do there—pour hundreds of thousands of English sovereigns into a melting pot and turn it into American coin. “On account of the war,” and so forth. At the Assay Office, however, it’s a cheap quality of gold they handle compared with those spiritual riches in which the Rev. Dr. Christian F. isner, New York clergyman, deals. Men's souls are so precious that Dr. Reisner adopts unusual methods of gathering them in for the Final test of the crucible.
