Big California Canning Company De

jCHICAGO, Sept. 17.-A bill was
filed in the superior court in this city i
to-day asking that a receiver be ap-,
pointed for property in lllinojs of the !
A. Mcllhenny Canning and Manufac- j
turing Company, a $10,000,000 corpor- i
ation engaged in the manufacture of
tobasco sauce and in the oyster trade.
The bill was brought by VVm. C Titt
comb, former western manager of the
company. He charges that the com
pany is insolvent and that it owes him
$23,000 for salary and other accounts.
A restraining order Is asked to pre
vent the reihoval of goods said to be
stored in Chicago. The goods, ac
cording to Tittcomb consist of oys
ters and tobasco sauce in warehouses
valued at more than $100,000. The
oysters, however, Tittcomb alleges,
are unfit for the market and are prac
tically valueless.
