NEW YORK, April 23---C. Leadle, Jr ,
Receiver of the First National Bank Of
Selma, brought suit in the United states
Circuit Court to snjoin Ben Ford, b. A..
Tracy and others, from continuing suit to
obtain possession of 81 1881 which had
been deposited by the Bank CT Selma in
the Ocean National Bank of this city, and
which had been attached by Tracy. The
suit of Leade was based on the fact that
the Bank Of Selma owed the United States
Government $3.50, 900, for which judgment
had been received, thus giving the United
States a lien on the money in the Ocean
Bank, which Lsadle prayed might be paid
over TO him, partly to satisfy judgment
obtained by the Government, Judge
Blotchford to-day granted On injunction,
but the question as to how much of the
money shall be paid to Leadle is reserved
for argument.
