Harris Gabweller firm seeks receiver in partnership dispute
In Forty fifth District Court yesterday Gebhardt Gabweiler filed for dissolution of Harris and Gabweller of West End Lumber Co and asked for a receiver. He alleges one partner and a bookkeeper mismanaged books to inflate profits and cites missing funds and unentered lumber payments totaling thousands, with firm debts around six thousand dollars and assets about fifteen thousand dollars. He notes a $125 unauthorized withdrawal by bookkeeper Snipes on June 1, 1895 and $321 collected by J I Huvrig not entered in books. He claims ignorance of the alleged misconduct and seeks court action to protect rights.
