The following from tho Rosoburg Review will be of Interest here, as T. It. Sheridan formerly lived on Coos Day, and his son, George, Is now manager of tho North Rend Condonsary. "Thomas R. Sheridan, president of the former First National Rank of Rosoburg, Is the defendant In a suit filed In tho Circuit Court here to day by Attorney George M. Drown for tho recovery of $17,318.50 on promissory notes executed by him Individually. The plaintiff Is E. C. Marks, of Edenbower, both as orig inal payee and assignee. Marks and Ms brother, J. C. Marks, aro the payees of an unsatisfied note ex ecuted by Sheridan on December 3, 1910, for $3000, and In addition Marks holds a not Individually aRalnst Sheridan for $937, dated January 29, 1910. Marks' brother lias assigned Ills interest In .tnoir Joint note, nnd In addition the plain tiff Is the assignee of notes execut ed by tho defendant to the follow ing persons: V. A. Plerco (two) $9381; Henry Lander. Sr., $4000. In addition to the above, a Itose- burg dispatch to Tho says: "In nddltlon to civil actions. It j against him wero simply civil suits is uniiorstooa nero tnar a number to recover auout tzu.uuu loanoti of creditors will present evidence before tho grand Jury this week In hope of having Sheridan Indicted on lowing in connection with tho mat ter: "In each Instnnco tho sums enum erated In tho complaint aro alleged to bo duo on promissory notes execut ed during tho yenr 1911, or a fow months prior to Mr Shorldan's re moval to California. While a num ber of tho persons Involved hnvo written Mr. Sheridan regarding their respective obligations, nono of them claim to have received any satisfac tion. In fact, It Is understood that Mr. Sheridan has simply acknowledg ed the appeals for money by stating that he would go Into bankruptcy in tho event his creditors took occa sion to enforce their demands. It Is also rumored here, and upon what The News bollevos to be good author ity, that evldonce will be placed be fore the grand Jury during its next meeting with a view of Indicting him on a serious charge. This evidence will probably bo based on a trans action between a Curry County wo man and Mr. Sheridan. It Is claimed hore that Shorldan's liabilities In Douglas County will total $75,000."
