HOME REALTY
CREDITORS To
MEET TOMORROW

There was no meeting today OF the
creditors committee OF the Home Realty
company, as quorum could not be gath
cred
Hon John s. Murdoch, chairman of the
committee, has called a meeting OF his
colleagues for tomorrow morning. at
which some line OF action will be mapped
out relative to further court proceedings
In connection with the affairs OF that In
solvent corporation.
At the time II was proposed the Home
Realty company should be placed In in
voluntary bankruptcy the point was
raised by eminent counsel that this could
not be done II any creditor dissented.
inasmuch as IL was not believed that the
fact could be clearly established that the
Home Realty company is q trading cor
poration.
When the assignment 10 Edwin o.
Chase was made and recorded the way
seemed clear. Edwin G. Pierce counsel
for the officers of the company, had ad-
vised that an assignment be made, after
he had become convinced that his original
suggestion OF establishing a trusteeship
was not acceptable to yhe creditors. who
were fast piling UP attachments and me-
chanics liens.
The interposition of the objection to
the bankruptcy order by F. NJ Ballou OF
, the F. Nj. Ballou company upon the
ground that the Home Realty company Is

ton was upheld yesterday by Judge
Brown In the United States district court
Will not. Mr.. Murdock says. change In the
slightest degree the assignment aspect of
the Home Realty companys affairs.
The assignments still stands. the attach
ments which were brought prior to the
recording of that deed were dissolved
thereby and the property OF the corpora
ton Is wholly in the hands OF and control
of Assignee Chase.
The petitioning creditors have 10 days
in which to take appeal from Judge
Browns decision, and this subject will be
discussed at the meeting OF the creditors
committee tomorrow.
Edwin z Pierce attorney for the COM
pany. SAID no further steps by the COM
pany are contemplated, as the company
has done absolutely all that II could do.
IAN assignee" he said, has been ap-
pointed and he IL turning the assets OF the
company into cash as readily az circum-
stances will permit. The company did not
| oppose the bankruptcy proceedings and is
now willing to abide by any condition
| that the committee OF creditors may mu~
tually agree upon"
Edward o. Chase, the assignee appoint
ed 10 dispose OF the company assets, when
questioned as TO how much OF the assets
had been disposed OF. stated that he was
acting I'm accord with the committee OF
creditors and thus far had disposed of
some horses. since the retention OF the
animals was an expense that was consid-
| cred unnecessary. One thousand dollars
was realized on this sale. The bankruptcy
| proceedings have somewhat hampered the

These questions have nothing TO DO with
