the divinity Of Jesus Christ; that he Is

upon the motion made by counsel for
the South Carolina dispcnsary COM
mlSsion FOR 4 Supcr>aGeas bond in The
consolidated eases Of the Fleiscimann
Company. against the Suuth Carolina
diSpcnsary commission, appears to
have been misunderstood by some Of
the parties interested. Judge Pritch-
ard on Wednesday announced that he
had refused to grant the motion for
Il supcrSctfcas made by the commits
slon'S counsel because Mr.. Abney, Of
counsel, had previously notified the
court at Fridays holding that the
commission could not give as great a
bond as $250,000, stating that it WAS
court s opinion that ii should accept
no supcrscdcas bond in i sun less
than the amount &C The claims against
the disrensary fund already present
ed to the court by complainants an
intcrvenurS. ana these exceeded $3.50
900.
.Jud@r pritchard wrote counsel at
Columbia that he would allow the Sill
perscd2aS if the commission would
give a bond sufficient to cover ;he
claims involved in the Wilson-Flcsch,
mann suit. but denied the motion for
| supersedcas because counsel mad pre-
viouSly said commission would not
give any such bond as $250,0G0. If
| the commission wished t, give the
bond, he said, the court intended to
make as Il condition Of acceptance an
order that the commission deposit
the securities furnished it by thu
depository banks in the registry OF
the court pending appeal ,, the com
mlsslnH to The court OF appeals il,

the court Wednesday because, having
been Informed by counsel that th,

the court simply refused TO allow tht

was ended. and there was no nee;
to make any order * TO the terms ot
