Court Notes.

The firm of Harrison 6 Zacher, as coun- sel for Adolph Woolner of the Old Colony Distillery company, have filed an applica- ton for the appointment of receiver for the Atlantic Yeast company. This com pany was formerly controlled by the same parties that are the principal owners of the stock of the Old Colony distillery. Some time ago the Yeast company's business was purchased by the Fleischman Yeast company. In order to close up the com pany, which really ceased to exist after the purchase by the Fleischman company, the appointment of a receiver was neces- sary.
