for appointment OF receivers for the

making every effort to get On a. firm
footing again. despite the fact that
True Reformers Bank went to the
wall some months ago. and the order
itself has sustained many losses as
a result Of it's fina ncial embarrassment.
Practically the same argument was
advanced by the Hon. Richard Evelyn
Byrd. who was associated with Mr..
Montague.
These attorneys set forth that while

ownership had only several hundred
dollars at stake. it was question of

effect to the decision of the Supreme

When questioned as to the case yes
terday on his return from New York
Judge Williams said II have only to
say that the court in New York which
is hearing the case treated the At
terneys-Generap associated in the mat
ter with the Utmost courtesy and we
had the opportunity for a fun and
fair hearing on behalf OF the tobacco
growers. In view OF such courtesy II
would be improper for me TO make
any statement as to what think Will
or will not be the result of the case
before the court. The public has al
ready been appraised through the press
of the position taken by United Staten
Attorney -General Wickersham, which
10 say the least OF Il. looks very much
like the government Is not disposed
to AJAX the enforcement of the decision
OF the Supreme Court OF the Uniteo
States in such 3 way and manner as To
give vitality and effect to what l think
was the real intent and meaning ex-
pressed In the opinion"
Judge Williams is receiving large
number OF letters daily commencing
him on his stand in connection with
the case.
While guarded in his utterances as
to the outcome OF the attempt being
made TO have the tobacco trust dis
solved In accordance with the SUI

that the Attorney General entertains
a strong distrust of the law depart
