The suit of Martin l.. Shaffer and
Arnold j. Bonafield, of West Vir-

city, on trial for several days in the
United States Circuit Court, was con-
cluded yesterday. Textor, at the
time ofthe failure of Stirling, Ahrens
& Co., was engaged in the cooperage
business, and by that failure Was in
VolVed in difficulties. His creditors,
including the plaintiffs, upon his
representations that he was unable
to pay any more, accepted seventy
five cents on the dollar, and gave
him a release in full. Shaffer and
Bonafieli brought suit against Tex
tor to recover the one. fourth of their
original claim against him, which
they had lost by the settlement allu-
ded to, and contended that the rep
reservations of TeXtor as to his in
ability to pay up in full were false.
The jury evid,ntly were of the same
opinion, for they rendered a verdict
for Shatfer and Bonafield for 81 OH 81
the amount claimed. 1t is expected
that number of similar suits will
be instituted against Textorby other
creditors. baltimore american 10th.
