COMPLAINT FR0M GRAND JURY.

cure a Heceivership.
Atlanta, Nov Fulton county's grand
jury to-day delivered a hot word for the
razor back lawyers who are said To
abound in the city, by calling upon the
Legislature 10 protect the business interests
Of the state from their depredations by
having a law passed compelling applicants
for receivership to give bond for damages
when they fail to make out insolvency.
This is The gentle language the grand jury
used in dealing with them.
AS the law now stands any person can
secure the services of an attorney and at
tack the integrity of any business con-
Germ with perfect immunity from liability
1t matters not how much damage the de-
PENDANT sustains, or TO what expense he
is put in defending the attack, he has no
recourse whatever.
Many temporarily embarrassed. but sol
vent, concerns have been wrecked by these
attacks, it Is said, when, if let alone
they would soon recover and become pros
porous. Ii is almost universally the case
that when the assets of an estate admin
istered by a receiver are distributed the
larger portion goes to others than the
stockholders.
