deal will investigate is the object
this afternoon of several business
men interested in the matter.
When it was announced that the
committee, consisting of Samuel Glas-
gov, +. B. Wright and II. l.. Blocker.
was appointed, steps were taken at
once to ascertain when and what the
committee would do.
a request to the committee was
preferred by r. A. Hutchinson today
to sign a petition to Judge KEENAN,
asking continuance of the injunc-
ton proceedigs, which are set for
tomorrow, until Friday next and also
asking the court to permit the in
PRODUCTION of oral testimony instead
of only affidavits.
+. b. Wright consented to work for
a continuance and to delay matters
if possible until the proper testimony
could be taken. Mr. Glasgow was
not in favor Of petitioning the court
until the committee could ascertain
what evidence could be had. Mr..
Blocker was noncommittal.
1t was finally arranged that the
