Wachter, a plumber, was
working on the construction of
the McClintock's sumptuous home
at Bayview, Texas, 20 miles from
Galveston. In 1909.
One-' day Mrs. McClintock,
mother of Billy McClintock,
"miiiloraire orphan," for whose
death Shepherd recently was in-
dicted by a Chicago grand jury,
. was called away.

Suit for 31000 for alleged breach
of contract has been filed in the
63rd district court by F. B. Ritchie
of Austin against W. E. Smith, Inc.,
wholesale grocery concern of San
Antonio.
The suit grows out of the defend-
ant’s alleged interruption of deliv-
ery of 1000 Tases of tomatoes con-
signed under contract to Ritchie by
a canning company of Baltimore.
* Ritchie claims he had acquired all
rights and t laim in the Austin

lect their officers in accordance
with law, that notwithstanding* un-
certainly as to the charter is now
in effect, that they determined co-
dification of the laws should be
made at this time and that they
have contracted for such work at
a sum of 36000, which sum the
plaintiff gays is grossly excessive.
The plaintiff sets out that he
does not believe such action was
reached in good faith, but was "ar-
rived at as a pretense merely for
the purpose of enabling said de-
fendants named to compensate their
said private^ counsel, for services
heretofore rendered and to be ren-
dered by said attorneys to said

Senderford asserted names of

arose when eight pardons, one full
