Judge Farwoll was occupied yesterday in hear
Ing tho arg,1mont IN the caee Of Orano Brothers
Manufacturing Company against John DAWN Il
Company. Tho argument WIS 1rst for Oh III
junction to provont tho Company from mnnag-
ing its afrars until tho creditors paid ncxt,
for tho appointment OF n Receiver In placo Of
1Ir. Bowos, WHO WAS charged in complainants'
bill with nog1ecting tho affairs Of the Company;
aud, lnatly, for reforonco Of tho caso to d
Master In Chanccry to tAko mn account Of tho
doings Of tho Receiver. Defendants claim that
tho appointment Of Receiver would not
bo necessary to compainauta' rights, md
would work n fatal injury to tho Company. and
that Davis & Co. huvo tho right to go on and
take now contracts without tho restriction In
sisted on by tho complainants.
A similar caso, Of Good agninst the aame Com
pany, WAS heard a short ti1no ago on a like ar
gumont for nm injunction for the removal Of
Bowen, mud it was agrood that Judge Farwoll
should hear tho Crano case, and that thon tho
two Judges should confor toy thor and decide
both cases. Judge Farwel therefore rendered
no decision in The presont natter, and It will
probably be a weok before tho joint ono is
giyon.
