Says His Clerk.
After a day of further investigation
of the tangled affairs of E. D.
Dior & Co., brokerage firm, which
went into bankruptcy on January 17,
Judge Mack in the Federal District
Court signed an order late yesterday
which authorized efforts to find out

The order directs Alexander Gilchrist,
Jr.. special commissioner, to

of the New York Giants, and Ross j

morning in Gilchrist's office at,
the Federal Building. Judge Mack;

fred W. Ehrich, receiver of the estate.
Arthur G. Hays and Saul S. Myers, as
counsel to the receiver, presented the
order and verified petition to Judge
Mask.
The petition points out that on Januf

for examination.
Mtton?kam Aaaeta Transferred."
"The examination of stoneham and
Ttobertson." says the petition, "is absolutely
necessary. From the statements
which have been made at the informal
meetings and from Investigation which
? our petitioner and his attorneys have
mode it appear that Stoneham and |
Itobertson were in the brokerage business
In this city under the name of
Stoneham A Co. and that they transferred
their accounts to the extent of
about Si.000.000 to the bankrupt and
that they received large sums of money
in these transactions.

a salary of <10.000 a year. He
-WO questioned particularly about the
handling of securities belonging to the
fjrm's credit customers Hs showed an
apparent lack of knowledge of the accounts
of the company which was surprising
to the attorneys. Ho said once
that no records were kept, so far as
tie Knew, or securities sent to the company,
end that no report of receipts
ever had been rendered.
Stroll testified that for several weeks
before bankruptcy proceeding* were '
started against, the firm and at a time
when It wae plain to all connected with

that he also handled the se'Ting of more 1
