Attorney George Hamilton thought
they ought 80 have an Adjournment ID
give the creditors secured on L,sl No
! tune tC consider whether CT rot Iheg
! should vote
Attorney Landvoigt said II an ad-
tournment was had he would protest
the election. on the ground that ina
Piled threats had been used by altOr-
news 10 frighten creditors of the List
No. class. Mr.. Mattingly. al whom
this was aDparentl' aimed, said he had
no Intention of making threats.
Referee Bradley finally cut short the
discussion by announcing that he would
hold the election. but that those artor-
neys representing clients whose claims
were secured by List No. 1. vino did not
agree with his rulings, could either re-
fuse to vote when their names were
called. or vote and note an exception 10
his decision, not 10 certify 20 the court
before holding the election.
Overwhelming Vote.
Then tho long calling Of the roll be-
gan; each claim. the name OF the credi-
tor and that OF the attorney who rep
resented him being announced.
The first rollcaH was for a vote on the
question OF whether there should be
three trustees or only one, the bank
ruptcy law providing that there shall
be either one or three As the votes
were cast and the amount OF claims
they represented were read of. fl soon
became apparent that a majority of
votes, as well as a majority Of amounts
of claims would go TO the proposition 10
have one trustee. The result was ever
whelmingly that way.
All this reading OF names. occupied a
great deal OF time and more was con-
sumed by the counting machine in get
ting at the totals. When il was found
that there was 10 be one trustee. the
roll was called all over again, and then
u took but a few minutes 10 show that
Mr. Truesdell would be almost unanf-
mOusly elected.
When his election was finally an
by Referee Bradley an effort
was made TO have II made unanimous,
but the referee said the law required
ballots and he could not change.

clsion Of the referee that the lawyers
did not agree with, and Attorney F. l..
Stddons moved that the decision be Ger
tihed 10 the judge Of the Supreme
Court of the District Of Columbia for
confirmation.
Lawyers Contentious.
The first objection to Mr.. Bradley 9
decision that creditors on List No. l
were unsecured creditors as far as vot-
ing was concerned, was offered by At
torney William +. Mattingly. Mr.. Mat
tingly stated that he would make the
point later that any creditor OF this
class who voted as an unsecured credi-
tor waived his right to any security he
might have on that list. and that he
would have 20 be rated as an unsecured
creditor for all purposes hereafter. For
his part. said Mr.. Mattingly, he repre-
sented claims to the amount Of $4,000.
and would not vote them. as he was OF
the opinion that his clients were Sc
cured.
Little Tilt.
Other lawyers took Mr.. Mattingly's
view Of the matter. and then Attorney
George e. HamiltOns motion 10 adjourn
the meeting pending certification OF the
referees decision by the Supreme Court
Of the District was overruled by Referee
Bradley A number OF exceptions were
taken 10 the ruling.
A happy little tilt took place between
them while the arguing was going on
between Referee Bradley and Attorney
Baker. who came IN late. Mr. Baker
moved adjournment on the ground that
Saturday was a half holiday. and that
an election Of trusteee ought not 10 be
held after y o'clock. This brought a
laugh from several attorneys present
ANY other motion. AIr. Baker?"
queried the referee. dryly.
Il did not know this was funny mat
ter. Mr.. Referee. said Mr. Baker Il
thought IL was a serious one. or /
should not be here"
1t is not "a funny matter, Mr.. Baker"
was the referees reply. "Or was not,

Mr.. Bakers motion was overruIed.
