Attachments Sustained.
In the.United States court; in Little
Rock, few days ago, Judge j. A.
Williams sustained the attachment
OF the AdlerGoldman Commission Co.
OF st. Louis, against ]. Loewen, of
Batesville, and decided that number
OF intervening creditors were entitled
to nothing. The interveners pro-
lested against the Adler-Goldman
attachment on the ground that
1T showed collision, the point be-
ing that the attachment was sued
out upon note not then due. 1t was
also charged by the intervenors that
the Adler-Goldman company had not
complied with the statutes of Arlxan-
sas requiring nonresident corporations
to appoint an agent in this state upon
whom service of process may be had.
After the court had rendered decision
sustaining the attachment and shut
ting out the other creditors, notice of
an appeal to the United States court of
appeals at st. Louis was fled.
