made millions through the agency of COM

invariably inimical to labor, could not

tective duties. Now, these duties were
put there by the Republicans when they

pleased with the recent decision of the
United States circuit court of appeals for
the first district, declaring that the nom
resident stockholders are liable, and can
be reached by suit of the receiver acting
in behalf of the creditors.
The attorneys for the defendant relied
upon two points. They contended, fist,
that the special decree appointing Mr..
Hale q receiver TO collect the sums due

and existing conditions, was not admis

AccLAMATIoN WAS THE RULE

Nomination of Judge Mestrezat for
Supreme Court Judge Means His
Election to That Objective
Judges Are to Be Selected, and
for More Than One.
HARRISBURG, Pa, June 15.-The con-
test before the Democratic STATE con-
vention' for supreme court judge ended
this evening with the unanimous nomina
ton of Judge MestreZat, of Fayette- coun-
ty, on the tWenty-nnth ballot. Charles
j. Reilly, of Williamsport, permanent
chairman of the convention, was nom,n-
ated by acclamation for judge of the su-
perior court, and Representative w. T.
Creary, of Columbia, was the unanimou +;
choice for state treasurer After max
ing these nominations the convention ad-
journed.
The convention started to ballot at Is
o'clock last evening for supreme court
judge and continued with a few recesse !;
until nearly o'clock this event g. Col
.umbia started the break to Mestrezat in
the twenty-eighth ballot by casting it's
thirteen votes for him. Before the vote
was announced Congressman Erman-
trout withdrew the nineteetn votes of
Berks, cast for Ermantrout, and gave
them to Mestrezat. Mcdonald, of Phil
adelphia, gave the sixty votes of Phila-
delphia solidly to Mestrezat. Center
county changed from Krebs to Mestre-
zat. EX-Congressman Kerr, of Clear
field, who had managed Krebs contest.
withdrew his candidate in favor of Mes
trezat. This insured the latter's nomina-
ton and there was a wild scene of en-
thusiasm. Judge Mestrezat's nominal
ton was made unanimous.
When the convention again settlcd
down to business the names of Repre-
sentative George R. Dixon, of Elkes, and
Mr.. Reilly were presented for superior
court judge.
Gen A. H. Coffroth of Somerset, with
drew Mr.. Dixon's rame, and on his mo-
ton Mr.. Reilly was nominated by ac-
clamation.
. The convention then completed the
ticket by the nomination of Mr.. Greasy
for state treasurer, his name having been
placed before the convention by his co..
league, NJ. Dixon.
The nomination for supreme court
judge is-equivalent to an election. by rea-
son of the fact that two are to be elected
in November, and no eIector is entitled
to vote for more than one.

nonresident stockholder, and that the
receiver representing the creditors had
power to sue such stockholder.
Mortimer H. Boutelle, of Boardman &
Boutelle, who argued the case before the
circuit court of appeals, said that the de-
cision was far-reaching in that it de-
clared the liability of all nonresident
stockholders of the Guaranty Loan COM
pany. But many of these stockholders
are scattered all over the country, many
are insolvent and several have since
died, which, Mr.. Boutelle said, would
render collections from such stockholders
slow and uncertain. Still, Mr. Bouteile
thought the assets of the Northwestern
Guaranty Loan company would be ma
terially increased as a result of the de-
cision
