bert Liberal says of the occasion:
"Sunday was beautiful day and the

whom we have known so long and

SHERIFF TWICE ENJoINED.
Will the State or Federal Court Dis
pose Of Goods OF Patterson Bros?
Judge Sheffield Passed Orders.

The affairs of Patterson Bros, whose
store was recently closed by the lew
of a mortgage Fl ia, and who were sub.
sequently adjudged bankrupts, have
assumed a somewhat novel and unusu-
al phase, and legal complications have
arisen which bring up interesting
questions as to whether the state or
federal court has jurisdiction in the
matter.
The trustee OF the bankrupts' estate,
Judge j. G. Parks, made application
after his appointment to Judge Shelf
field for an order to require Sheriff
Christie to turn oyer to him the stock
of goods levied on to satisfy mort
gage Fl ia in favor of A. j. Baldwin,
and asking that the sale by the sheriff
be enjoined. Judge Sheffield passed
an order stopping the sale of the stock
of merchandise, and set the case for
hearing in Dawson on the 10Th inst.
Certain creditors of the bankrupts
have filed a petition in Terrell supe-
rior court seeking to repossess them
selves of several bills of goods bought
by Patterson Bros. short while
before their recent failure and also
asking that the proposed sale by the
sheriff be enjoined and that receiver
be appointed to take charge of the
stock of goods. Judge Sheffield ap.
pointed Sheriff Christie as temporary
receiver, enioined the sale which had
been advertised to take place on the
9th OF this month and set this case for
hearing also on the 10Th inst.
The trustee is insisting that under
the bankrupt law he is entitled to the
possession of the property of Patterson
Bros, and that the proceedings insti-
tuted by their creditors after the ad-
publication in bankruptcy cannot be
maintained,
Certain other creditors are contem.
plating the fling of proceedings in the
federal court seeking to have all of
these matters adjudicated in that court,
and the outcome of the case is awaited
with interest by all parties concerned.

A report which reached ST. Paul yes
