Supreme Court Decision.

II
 the Superior court, in the case of E. s.
 Wheeler 6 Go. vs the New Haven Wire Go.
 The Supreme court rendered decision that
 the trust contracts are valid. The contracts
 are of the following tenor: That all rods | were to continue the property of Heidelbaok,
 Ickelheimer < Co.,, Kidder, Peabody & Co.,,
 Barring Brothers, or any other firm that
 furnished them until these rods were sold,
 and when sold the firm that supplied the ! rods were to receive certain share of the re- | ceipts. Ar. Galpin, the receiver, has | hand between $50, 900 and $60, 00e worth of rods and has already passed over to the clerk of the Superior court moneys on the trust | contracts. The receiver thought the court of | errors judgment had allowed too much of the wire rod property, available as assets, to | revert back to the original owners. The court orders that certain changes be made in the original finding. The modification of the former finding reduced to dollars and | cents means that the receivers assets to be \ divided among the general creditors have
 been increased perhaps ss,00o or $7.000 or may be more.
