THE ALLIANCE EXCHANG. I Supreme Court Sustains Contention S:Si of Attorneys For the Ex change. J. sc On Wkednesdav of this week the su preme court handed down a decision bc in the case of Br,okshire vs the Far- cu mers Alliance Exchange, limited. dh About a year and a half ago 'Brook- 0: shire and others attempted to put the fo funds of the Exchange. amounting to gc over sixteen thousand dollars, in the hands of a receiver. At that time the directors of the Exchange were at tempting to distribute the fund to the fa sub-Alliances throughout the state, pl and they resisted the effort to place it gc in the hands of a receiver so as to ed save heavy expenses, attorneys' lees,, etc. A temporary order was passed sc by Judge Ernest Gary restraining the directors from distributing this fund. P( and requiring them to show cause XV why a received should not be appoint ed. and referred the matter to John S. vi: Verner, Master for Richland county, P< to take testimony and report on same se to him. Upon the filing of the testi- in mony Judge Gary ordered that unless w< the Exchange give bond in the sum of thirty-three thousand dollars, its af- lel iairs be placed in the hands of a re- ab ceiver. The Exchange gave this L< bond, and the supreme court held that the giving of the bond vacated hi the order of Judge Gary in so far as ar the appointment of a receiver was w< concerned. Subsequently Judge Gary te passed another order directing the D Master to call in creditors and stock- vil holders of the Exc'hange by a day certain: and from this order the Ex- I change appealed on the ground that at Judge Gary had no right to pass such -n order. The decision of the supreme cotrt just handed down sustains the contention of the attorneys for the Ti Exchange on all material points, and holds that the order of Judge Gary was not appealable. ahd for that rea son dismissed the appeal. The attorneys for Brookshire are in Bellinger & Townsend and James da Verner. The attorneys for the Alli- A: ance are Hunt. Hunt & Hunter and or Lyles & McMahan. th The case is yet to be fonght out on ci its merits, as the supreme court has Of decided that all that Judge Gary has s done up to this time is prelirrinary to 01 the fight on the merits in the circuit tr couirt, and the case will probably be 0o heard at the next session of the court w of common pleas for Richland coun-t A ty. ~ fa LITTLE MOUNTAIN NEWS. cl Result of Town Election-The Re- pl cent Cold Snap-The th dr Little Mountain.
