They Allege That the Reeeon the Money 1« Withheld from Creditor* I* Because Member* of the Dis pensary Commission Hare Placed It In Gertfift'Banks In Which They Are Individually Interested. In the United States Circuit Court Tuesday at Asheville Judge J. C. Pritchard signed an order citing the dispensary commission of South Car olina to appear on Wednesday. Jon. 29, and show cause why the relief prayed in a bill of complaint filed by Fleischman A Co., of New York, creditors of the dispensary, should not be granted and a receiver ap pointed to take^charge of the funds Jield by the dispensary commission, And- the affairs of th* commission wound up. - The bill of complaint filed by attorneys representing Fleischman A Co., is interesting and in parts sen sational. The complaint in effect charges that the dispensary com mission has failed to pay the claims of the creditors because the commis sioners are financially Interested in the banks in which the great sum of « almost 11,000,000 is deposited. The bill alleges that the commission has violated its trusts and a receiver should be appointed._to take charge of the monies and affairs now under control of the dispensary commis sion.- — —— BRYAN A WINNER. Mtory Wattirson Says Ha Ba Nomlnatad and Elactat Thinks Gov. Hughes, of New York, Is the Only Republican, Who Can Defeat the Great Commoner. The bill in part recites that said defendants are abusing the trusts re posed in them by wrongfully and un- lawfully failing and refusing to ear- ry out the terms and provisions of said act of 1907 of the general as sembly of the State of South Caro lina, and that the greater part of the money which the defendants have received, as aforesaid, has been on deposit for many months, and U now on deposit in certain banks in the State of South Carolina, in which banks the said defendants, or some of them, are respectively interested, either as officers, stockholders or dir ectors; that a large sum of said mon ey is now lu the National Loan and Exchange bank of Columbia, in which bank the defendant. Murray, who is chairman of the dispensary commis sion, is a large stockholder and dir ector; that another large portion of said money is deposited in the Bank of Tlmmonsville, in which said bank the defendant, McSween, is a stock holder and director, and is also !U president; that another large portion of said money is on deposit in the People's bank of Union, in which bank the defendant.. Arthur, is a . rtockholder and director and also its president; that another large porUon <«f said money is on deposit in the Bank of Aiken, in-which bank the defendant. ^Henderson, is a stock- and director; that another "Bryan is as good as nominated." "Just so sure as the convdktlon of the Democratic party meets in Den ver next July. Bryan will be named as the standard bearer of the party.” "If the country remains in its pres ent condition of unrest, Bryan will be elected." "Governor Hughes is the only can didate the Republican party can name who could defeat Bryan under normal conditions." These 'quotations express the lat est opinions of Henry Watterson, the famous editor of the Louisville Cour ier-Journal, and are part of an in terview with him while in Washing ton recently. The fact that Col. Watterson has been leading the fight against Bryan’s nomination by the Democratic party, makes his utterances significant. "It is. too late to defeat Bryan for the nomination," said Col. Watter son. “Had I been rflven six months ago the support of those Democrats, who are now clamoring for another nominee, we might have accomplish ed something. ".-1 "When I suggested that if Bryan were to withdraw from the contest, I could name a man who measured up to all, the requirements, a good, winning Democratic candidate for president. W’hen I named him and found that he possessed all the qual ifications I claimed for him, some Democrats gave me credit for hav ing some perspicuity is now too late. Then followed the quotations made above. “I am not personally unfriendly to Mr. Bryan," said Col. Watterson. On the contrary. I like him, and I am convinced that if the country re mains in its present state of unrest, Bryan will be the victor in the next election. Gov. Hughes Is t^e only man the Republicans could name who would have a chance to defeat the candidate of the Democrats, how ever he may be and with the coun try in a normal state he would prob ably be elected. But I repeat, if the country remains in a state of unrest, victory will perch on the banner of the Democrats in the national elec tion next November. _ ‘Who appears to you to be in the lead, so far as the Republican nomi nation Is concerned?" Col. Watter- sbn was asked. ’ —=r- ‘If Taft is not nominated on the first ballot. Gov. ^ughes will be hosen on the second," was laconic responce. ( What about - the senatorshlp out in Kentucky—would you become a compromise candidate, if Gov. Beck ham is imt elected?" , "I Votfid'hot con^ tfx Washington to take the oath of office If a. oevti*- flcate of election were handed to mi,” replied Col. Watterson. it to that city Was reached Wednes day afternoon when he spoke to the Democratic members of the legislh- ture behind closed doors, advocating the election of former Gov. Beck-- ham as United States senator. Mr. Brayan said neither Gov. Beckham nor anybody else had invited him to Frankfort. He declared he had no fears foa himself. He said be was told In the Goebel campaign that he might hurt himself if he came to Kentucky. holder portion of said money is deposited in the Piedmont Savings ind Jlnvest- ment Company of Greenville, in Yhich th* defendant, Patton, Is a Stockholder, and a portion of said money is deposited in th* Merchants and Farmers bank of Cheraw, in Stevenson, which, bank one W.

The following .were elected: of your orator or any of the other said creditors, for the reason, as your orator verily believes and alleges the fact to be, that there has been form ed and now exists an unlawful un derstanding or agreement between the defendants by which it has been decided-that the money deposited in the banks above named shall be held and allowed to remain as long at possible In said banks and be usee by them for their own benefit and P roflt - \- Attorney General Lyon of South Carolina was present in the interes T>f the dispensary commission. Tfiat side contends, in effect, that certain claims of creditors are not genuine that undud*influence was used In the purchase of goods and too grqat a price was paid. It is understood that there are claims aggregating about $600,000 against th* dispensary commission and these creditors, al leging that ttB funds in the hands of the commission aggregate about $800,000, demand that their claims be paid.
