This is an applicaton of certain school trustees to be allowed to intervene as parties to the case. We are of opinion that petitioners do not show by their petition any right to intervene asparties. ‘There jis nothing to show that the government is not disposed to look after the interest of the fund, and the interests of petitioners as school trustees to be recognized by.an are too remote order allowing them to intervene. But the petition which has been read contains charges of |—~a grave and serious nature against the receiver and his.attorneys Messrs. George S. Peters and Parley L. Williams. The charge has been directly made that the receiver has acted.corruptly and in criminal collusion with defendants, and that this court has been imposed upon by the represtatives of the said receiver and his said attorneys, anda fraud thereby accmplished. If this is true a crime has been committed, and this Court cannot and will not pass by it without attention. On the other hand, thosecharged with the investigation, a delicate and difficult duty, should be met by .a responsible accusation, and have the opportunity to confront it. Hither the receiver and his attorneys have been .guilty of a crime or some person or persons are interested in falsely accusing them. ‘This petition upon being verified and endorsed by some persons responsible for the costs which may be incurred, should be received amd filed as charges against the receiver and said attorneys, and they should each be required to file ttheir respective answers thereto, so faras charges of corruption, fraud and unprofessional conduct are charged against respectively. And upon the filing of these answers it should stand -referred to an examiner to take such testimony as is offered both to main- tain and disprove the charges contained in the petition, and report the same to this Court on or before the next regular Court. If the charges of corruption or improper conduct are sustained.and the fund in controyersy in this case thereby| preserved and protected, provisions can hereafter be made for the payment of the expenses incurred, but in the meantime we shall postpone the question of compensation to the receiver and attorneys until the bringing in of the report.
