Labor Claim. Against the In Porte

Galveston, Texas, July 20.--Judge Nor
gan Mann. master commissioner in the La
Porte case, and Attorney Maco Stewart
left tonight for Sherman to see Judge
Bryant with regard to having him issue
an order authorizing the payment of the
claims for labor against the road. The
exact amount of these claims Is not known,
but it is sale to say they VIII aggregate
1000. They will probably amount to
more.
The original claimants were numerous
and included pretty much all classes oil
laborers, but many have sold their time
to brokers, and the warrants are now
held in few hands.
No doubt this application will be stoutly
the cnurt arising from the proceeds of the
sale of the road are not nearly sufficient
to pay the Indebtedness. This is purely
a matter of precedent and priority IN tne
payment of claims and owing TO the con-
fictIng interests will raise nice point IN
equity for Judge Bryant to decide.
