CONTEMPT RULE ISSUED.
Another Step Taken in the Dispensary
Case?Federal Circuit Judge
Pritchard Issues Order
Against Two Columbia
Attorneys.
M'ws and Courier.
Richmond, Va., November 14.?
'urther complication in I lie celebrated
South Carolina dispensary ease developed
yesterday when, after all day
onferences with attorneys representng
the Wilson and iFlcisehnian disilling
companies, Judge Jeter C.
Vitcliard, of lite United States ciruit
court, issued an order commandng
Archibald W. Hay and Duncan
\ I?av, the latter a prominent attorney
of Columbia, S. C., to appear be'ore
him to show cause why they
ihould not be punished for contempt
?f court.
The attorneys at the conferences
vere T. Moultrie Mordecai, of Chareston,
S. C.; Frank Carter, of Ashe ille,
N. (!., representing the Wilson
ompan\; A. S. Barnard, of Ashe*ille,
N. C., and (I. B. Lester, of Ciji innati;
O., representing Ihe Fleischnan
interests. The complainants
uade a motion tlivt tho Hay brothers
)e 'ruled for contempt in seeking to
lave Judge Pritchard orders, in
vhich he took charge of Ihe dispell- I
?ary hinds, set aside or abrogated lo
" eh an extent as to allow them to re-!
over, the amount of the claim upon
ivhicli A. W. Hay procured a writ of
nandamus from ihe supreme court of
>outli Carolina.
Judge Pritchard's rule is returnable
December 21 at Greenville, S. C.
The whole trouble arises out of the
suits brought by the Fleisclunan
ouipany and others against the comnissioncrs
appointed to wind up the
itTairs of t!u> j>hl South Carolina dis?ensarv
board of control on claims
for whiskey purchased by the board
from complainants before the insli!
lit ion was abolished.
1 he commissioner-; constituted
hemselves as a court, and proceeded
o lake testinvonv as lo Jhe various
daims, and in many instances refused
o allow the full amount claimed In
he parties, and in the case of Ullman
ft Co., held thai instead of the Slate
icing indebted to that concern, it really
owed the State several thousand
lollars on account of rebates, which
;he commissioners claimed had been
>aid to the former board of control,
ind also on account of the fact that
ho goods sold lo the board were sold
it n price higher than that charged
)ther consumers.
The complainants then brought
their claims before Judge Pritchard,
n the Federal court at Asheville,
vhich was hotly contested bv the comnissioners,
on the ground I bat the
commission was itself a court, and
hat. Judge Pritchard did not have
jurisdiction.
Judge Pritchnrd, however, assumed
jurisdiction, and appointed recoiv- d
ers to take cliargo of the funds. Upon t
this an appoal was taken by tho com- <1
mission to the United States circuit ^
court of appeals, wherein Judge v
Pritchnrd wits sustained. v
The case is now before the Uitcd "
States supreme court, for the com- 1
mission having applied there for a j
writ of certiorari. A. W. Hay pur- 0
chased a claim against the commission j
of $354.35,.^uul brought suit against (
the commissioners in the State court, v
and recovered a judgment. This,
however, the commissioners were unable
to pay, under tlie former ordci
of Judge Pritchnrd, and did refuse to
pay. Kay, thereupon went to tho supreme
court of South Carolina and j
procured a writ of mandnmns to com- 0
pol (he commissioners to pay tlie s
judgment. '
The present contempt- proceedings j v
are instituted on account of the at- v
tempted violation of Judge Pritch- t
ard's order, which is to the effect that v
no amounts shall be paid out of the t
fund, except by an order of his court. \
