he held except ."00 shares of stock and
real cM.i'o securities aniountlmt to about

The d rectors of the Monmouth Securi

two Kons, II. J. mill Nelson Ureenhut.
and Opt. Oreeuhut's wife. Tho rtrst
thrco were olTlccrs of the J. H. ilreenhut

though president of both companies, re
tained only one hare 0 ' stock In tlie
securities company. The latter corpo
ration lent money to the merchandise
corporation and was n holding company
for the Ortenhut Interests In the store.
The minority creditors assert that
last fall, six months before the ilreen

Monmouth Securities Company met and
msed a resolution calling In (300,000
of the $1,100,000 lent to the store. Cnpt.

Cnpl. Orrenhut said that the talllni;
In of the notes at that critical period
In the store's existence was for the pur
poso of Investing tho $300,000 In bet

minority ciedltors, who are th;htliur for
the liquidation of the Oreenhut com

maintain thnt In order to' pay back
J500.000 of tho $1100,1)00 Oreenhut bad

Impaired the store's credit with banks,

Tho C.reenhul trusteed and counsel for
the majority creditors, whose commit
tee bus submitted u teorcanlzatlnn plan
providing for a l!'i cent cash payment
to Ktheiul unsecured creditors, say tiny
see validity In this claim. So strongly
has this transaction and others been
pointed out to tho Oreenhut c.rcdltni tiy
tho Independent Creditors Committee
that almost nil of the replies ncetved
by both committees ato opposed to the
leorcanlzatlon plan and tavurablu to
llciulilatlou and litigation.
Tbero was Indication yisteid.iy In
cert.itn action taken by the trustees that
the sale nf the asset of iho Orcenhut
compunj, In compliance with the wishes
of the ereditms, will not be rushed
through he fnru the creditors have fur
'her opportunities to examine the Oreen
hut olllcers. It was planned n few
days n ro to make application to Ilef
ereo Olney on Tuesday for u decreo
ordering tho sale of the assets, but
Tuesday's moetliiK will bo adjourned
until July S.
"The trustees and their counsel," said I
James M. Hosenberjr. attorney for tho
trustees, yesterday afternoon, "have re
quested Mr. Olney to set a date for a
h'arlns on an application for a decree of
nale of thu Oreenhut assets. In order
to comply with the provisions of the law
ten days notlco of such nu application
must be given to the creditors. Con
nuently Mr. Olney set July S ns the date
'or thu liearlnc and notices will be sent
out to the creditors at oner."
This delay U thoiinht tfl be a biK ad
vantaco to tlm minority ciedltors who

thn Independent oieditois expect to have

.Mr. Littleton objected to almost very
question of Impoitnnce on the giounil

the present trial an occasion for James
