special officers, and the raiding be-

The first places raided was the pool
room of Leo Belvin and the bed rooms

officers were refused admission into the

Motion to Vacate Order
Denied by Judge.

New York. March 25.--Upon aiIega-
tions that an action brought by Ed
win Blum, Of this city, Is similar TO
the Peter Power litigation against the
Northern Securities Company. several
well known capitalists in the DistiIIing
Company Of America, known as the
whisky trust" have secured a favor
able ruling by Supreme Court Judge
Giidersleeve. In his suit, Blum charges
that the promoters OF the DistiIIing
Company, which is capitalized at
si25.OO0O0O, made large profits out Of
the promotion at the expense Of the
company.
The defendants set up the plea that
Blum is merely figurehead, being a
brokers' clerk 21 years old. and moved
that he should be examined before the
trial to ascertain the real promoters OF
the suit In order that the defendants
might properly answer.
In the affidavits on which the order
for Blum's examination was asked, the
defendants allege that Nathan Blur
has more than indirect interest in the
litigation. Mr.. Blur made application
to have the parts Of these affidavits
referring to him stricken from the
records on the. ground that they are
scandalous.
Judge Gildersleeve refused this ap-
application and now has denied Blums
motion to yacate the order. No date
was set for Blum's examination.
