ATTACHMENT CASES AGAIN.-Mes-
srs. VIM. J. Read, A. Blackiston and
J. Forsythe Harrison, attorneys Of
Cumberland, Nd, are contesting the
right and legality of citizens Of Mary
land garnisheeing the wages of the
miners in the employ of the New Cen.
trail Coal Company of Maryland by
attachment at Piedmont, West Virgin
ia, as both of these companies are non
resident corporations Of the State OF
West Virginia, and have no franchises
or agents in the State of West Virgin
ia. Upwards of $50 cases await the
result Of the test cases. The question
raised in these cases is different from
the one recently decided by the Court
of Appeals; in other words this is a
bar to any remedy in the State OF
West Virginia, and the case decided
in the Court of Appeals enjoined resi-
dents of Maryland from attaching the
wages of citizens of Maryland, but did
not prohibit the assignment of debts
to nonresident creditors. These
cases will come up before Judge Arm
strong of the Circuit Court for Miner
al county, West Virginia, for adjudi-
dication in July next.
