caused an attachment to be issued

tlcal money paid by Lutey Brothers to
the receiver and deposited in the bank
by him. Afterwards number of
other suits We're brought against the
Thornton Thomas company and the
stock purchased by Lutey Brothers
was attached. 1t is alleged that there
are numerous other creditors and if the
plaintiffs are required to protect their
rights it will cause long and vexatious
litigation and they will suffer great
and lrreparable injury. They ask that
the court declare them TO be the owners
OF the stock of goods by reason of their
purchase from the receiver, or that the
receiver shall be ordered to repay to
them the money paid him for the
stock. and that pending the final deter
mlnatlon of the controversy all the de-
PENDANTS be enjoined from selling or

money in the bank. A bond in the
sum OF $500 was filed and restraining
order was issued by Judge Clancy.
