as receivers of the Distiling and Cattle
feeding Company, was secured IN the | III
ted States Court on Monday evening.
This order of court was made in chan
Gerry suit nomnally commenced by dis
satisfied stockholders. Persons who are
familiar with the methods of the present
trust management see in this suit but
another move in the game these officials
have been playing. 1t is curious to uotc
that out of the total of 800. 00D shares of
the company only 100 are represented
by the cOmplainants in the suit. Since
the formation of the stockholders COM
mittee in New York President Greenhut
and his aids have seen that their term of
control would rot last beyond the annual
meeting in April. Then would come in
vcstication of methods and management.
with what result is bost known TO those
familiar with the inside workings of the
trust. TO get into court under the shelter
of friendly receivership was Of course
desirable. This has now been accom-
plished in the most adroit manner. but
whether it will stick or not is quite All
other affair.
