Upon the conclusion of the arguments
Justice Hagner at once entered into
the delivery of his opinion. citing nuEe-
rous authorities to sustain the position
that a court of equity had ample right
to act, and sustaining the regularity of
the judgment so far as these proceed
| ings are concerned.
The court said 1t was evident to his
mind that there was necessity for the
appointment of some proper parties to
take charge of the affairs of the COM
pany in the interests of the stockhold-
ers and the business put upon a paying
basis. if possible.
He also said that the new law, which
had been called to the courts atten-
tion. increasing the tax on colored oleo-
margarine from two 10 ten cents per
pound was a matter which should be
taken in consideration in estimating the
future prospects of the business.
Justice Hagner remarked upon the
corporation being foreign corporation,
and deplored the fact that so many Or
ganizations seemed to deem ii necessary

the interest Of preserving the company

therefore declared that he would ap-

Mr.. wilkins Answer.

When the hearing of the matter was
resumed yesterday Mr.. Davis, represent
ing Mr. Wilkins. read the answer OF the
latter, opposing the appointment OF 4
received for the company.
At times, Mr.. Wilkins said, the
business has been conducted ut
a loss, but not continuously so.
He also denied the right of certain of
the stockholders to confess judgment
against the company for $4,000 in the
suit recently filed by Charles T. Nes-
bitt, and said that he was not sum-
moned to attend the meeting of the
members of the board of directors at
which ii was agreed to confess judg-
ment. He said he was in the city and
those who met were aware of the fact
but he was not informed of this inten-
tion to meet and confer.
Mr.. Davis, in an argument to the
court, contended that according to the
rules of the Standard Butterine Com
pany. the alleged meeting of the direc-
tors was illegal, because it could not
properly be held, the bylaws requiring
twenty-four hours notice to be given
Besides. he contended, the affairs of the
company are in good condition, and
there is every reason TO expect profta-
BILE returns.
Mr.. wilkins also denied that the com
pany is insolyent, but on the contrary
is able TO meet all its liabilities II
permitted to continue in business, he
said, II would soon be on a sound and
paying basis.
