the arguments on the petitions of the re-
organization committee Of stock
holders for seventeen distilleries ana the
Peoria headquarters. coupled with the Of
fer OF $4,000 for that part of the pro-
perty.
While the Judge did not say in so many
words that he would enter decree pro-
viding for the sale of the distillcries, he
intimated as much. and did say after
hearing all the lawyers repr senting the
many interests, that he would consider
the matter of the order promptly, and
render his decision probably on Saturday
next.
The Reorganization Committee lawyers
here-Levy Mayer and eXJudge Moran
were jubilant. and felt 80 confident that
an order would be made that they tele-
graphed their New York clients to that
effect. They will regard the granting
Of the petition as the most substantial
