MIR. BYoK PERMANENT RECEIVER.
Judge FalIigant Refuses n Core
ceiver in the Gray Case.

Judge Falligant refused yesterday to ap-
point Mr.. Christopher P. Gray co-receiver
in the case of H. B. Clahin & Co., and
others against Christopher Gray Son,
and made Mr.. Max L. Byck. the tempo
rary receiver, permanent receiver of the
stock.
Mr.. Gray, through his attorneys, Messrs.
Erwin, duBignon & Chisholm, filed petit
ton asking to be appointed co-reeeiver.
He presented the afidavits of Messrs.
John Flannery and VIM. B. Netzger to
show that his appointment in that capac-
ity would be beneficial to the estate. He
stated that he was familiar with the
estate, and did not seek the appointment
for the purpose of getting any commits
sions, but on account of his interest in the
estate. Judge Falligant decided that the
appointment of a co-receiver was unnec-
essary at this time after hearing argu-
ments of counsel on both sides, and de-
clined to make it.
The answer of Christopher P. Gray and
the other defendants to the petition for re-
celver was also flied by their attorneys.
The answer specifically denies the charge
that there has been any wasting of the
assets of the firm, and says that the
diminution in the profits has been due to
the dizziness in trade for some time past.
1t is also stated that the stock and prop
erty was heavily encountered at the time
of the death of Christopher Gray, and
that the firm still owes large amounts
Mr.. Gray denies that he refused TO wind
up the business at the request of those
interested. He says, however, that owing
to the heavy Indebtedness Of the estate,
he thinks it would be a good thing for the
court to take hold of the property and
W ba
never been partner in the firm and that
since the death of his father he has mere
ly managed the business for the estate.
Upon application of the plaintiffs
through their counsel, Messrs. Garrard,
Meldrim & Newman, Judge Falligant
signed an order appointing Mr. Byck per-
manent receiver of the stock, both here
and In Augusta. He directed the receiver
to bring the Augusta stock TO Savannah,
to keep up the insurance, employ all the
necessary help, and to sell out the stock
at private sale for the highest prices for
cash. The funds are to be deposited in
bank, subject to the order Of the court.
Receiver Byck was also instructed to
employ an agent in Augusta to rent the
improved property there, either as
whole or in parcels. Separate accounts
are to be kept of the real and personal
property The receiver was required to
give bond in the sum Of $l5,000 and the
defendants were directed to turn over all
of the stock to him and TO refrain from
interference in any way.
Receiver Byck said the stock would be
put on sale tomorrow. He has been
busily engaged in getting the Augusta
stock TO Savannah, ana in making an in
Ventory of all the stock, fixtures and ac-
counts on hand That work will be con-
cluded to-day, and the store on Brough-
ton street will be open for business to-
morrow.
