FIRM WANTS RECEIVER
Rector & Daly, of Vancouver, Has
Assets Worth $14,664.
VANCOUVER. Wash., Sept. 26.
(Special.) Before the judge of the
Fedoral Court, at Tacoma, Rector &
Daly, a big contracting firm of this
city, asked for a motion to have a Re
ceiver appointed to take charge of the
property that the firm owned on Feb
ruary 8, 1911, when bankruptcy pro
ceedings were instituted against them.
The motion for the Receiver's appoint
ment was continued until Friday,
proper service not having been made.
A restraining order, keeping Rector
& Daly from disposing of any property
on hand February 8, 1911, was made
by the Judge. The assets of the firm
at that time were $14,664, while lia
bilities were J99.B00. The firm has
about S100.000 worth of contracts for
the city now, but these, having been
made since February 8, 1911, will be
affected in no way by the bankruptcy
proceedings, or the restraining order.
The firm offered the Commercial
Bank of Vancouver, now debtor to the
extent of S54.000, tjie sum of $6500, to
pay off this Indebtedness, but the de
positors' committee refused the offer.
Nothing has been -dona about this
since, although it is understood, unless
settlement is made, there will be
within a short time.
