The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-01-23

Company, too bulky to move, and
hence still under attachment. Outside
of the press, II is believed by defend
ants counsel that the rest of the stuff,
job presses type and goods, is clear
and free of the attachment.
The papers were served on David
; l. Walsh, a director of the company,
late last night, at his home on Brooks
street. The papers were served by
Deputy Sheriff Charles A. Bartlett.
Assistant Attorney General James
Mott Hallowell's letter defending his
position on the land damage cases was
read with interest by lawyers here to-
| day. Attorney Walter r. Dame regards
| it as one of the most satisfactory ut
terances that have come from the Office
| of the attorney general. The portion
of the statement in which Mr.. Hollo-
well says he has prepared a bill for
| presentation to the Legislature, if
Judge Fisher proclaims his position
that the superior court has no jurisdic-
ton, comprises the story, exclusively
printed in The Spy, on information re-
ceived from Attorney Dame. This
story was to the effect that the legis-
lature would be asked to pass an act
| OF Interpretation or an act amending
the law in its obscure sections.
Mr.. HallowellS f1at-footed declara
/ ton that he is in favor of having lan(
damage cases heard before Worcester
county juries, and nowhere else, is re
ceived with especial favor by Clinton
lawyers who have cases against tn,
commonwealth arising from the me
tropolitan business. Among the mum
Der are Judge John w. Corcoran, C. G
Bancroft and Allan G. Buttrick. o
Bancroft & Buttrick, E. A Evans
Jonathan Smith, Town Solicitor Thorn
as F. Larkin, Walter R. Dame, Davi,
l. Walsh and William H Fay. I
Mr. Hallowell is said here to fee
keenly the criticism applied to hin
since he took the states interests il
hand in the land damage cases.
Mrs. Mary Conroy, mother of jaime
Conroy, the young man against whom
the grand jury found true bill at it
last session, is in pitiful frame o
mind by reason of her sons plight
She has engaged Attorney David ]
| Walsh to defend him ana is very con
tident the jury will not flnd him guilty
/ Mrs. Conroy says: II am sure Jane
thought that woman was single whe
ne married her. One thing makes m
, glad the matter is turning out as
. mas. mat woman is not his wife
. When my boy gets off he will be
, single man.
