TRENTON coMPANY's TROUBLES.
Court Denied an Application to Dis
solve Receivership,

TRENTON. n. J., July 15.-Chancellor
Magee today fled an opinion denying the
application of the officers of the Knicker-
booker Investment Company for a dissolu-
ton of the recent appointment OF Jerome
Taylor as receiver of the company. The
chancellor held that there was no merit in
the contention. The bill of complaint, he
said, clearly sets up a case of insolvency.
In connection with immersion the officers
of the company filed an answer to the
original bill of complaint, denying insol
vency and making counter charges of mis-
management against the complainant,
Howard *. Stokes, and his associates
The chancellor refused to consider the
answer the ground that proper notice
had not been given to the other side. The
case will now go over for final hearing 5
to the continuation permanently of the
temporary receivershp.
