countless pilgrims have turned con-
tinuously for more than two-score cen
turtles.
Ii is a long climb up the damp, dirty
stone stairway that leads from the
two gaudy dragons that flank the en-
trance at the street level. AT every
step as you mount, on either hand,
you hear the voice of supplication-
not Of worshippers nor OF mendicants
but OF vendors OF postcards and melo-
dious gongs and of the "whacking lat
cheroot'' made famous by Kiplings
ION the Road to Mandalay." When
at least you reach the topmost stair
and are confronted by the base OF the
golden dome-for the Shwe Dagon IS
an oyer-towering cone that uprises Ill
rect from stone-paved platform IN
stead of from some form OF geomelric

This dome that you saw hours ago

Lawyers Will Get More than
Cummins Case Has Yielded.

The golden days I'm bankruptcy receiver
ships when receivers were allowed big
fees by the judges In the federal courts
as high rs 10000 I'm some notable cases
have passed away Now the allowances
are fixed by law on a percentage basis en-
the cash received while acting as receiver
In tho case OF w. J. Cummins, formerly
OF the Carnegie Trust Company. against
whom two petitions were filed on April II
and July I, 1911. Payson Merrill was APP
pointed receiver on April u. 1911, and served
until September %. 1911, when he was sue
ceeded by Thomas ID. Hewitt as trustee.
Mr.. Merrill did a large amount of work
I'm the matter, but all the cash realized
from the assets was $2Si5. on this cash
the percentage is only $96, and this is the
amount OF his fee as allowed yesterday by
Judge Hand Under the old law his allow
ance would have been at least 5000
Attorneys for the receiver, however, fare
much better, as their fees are not regulated
by a percentage basis.
Judge Hand allowed Parsons, closson 81
McIlwaine and Samuel S. Koenig, together,
S. 600, to cover all services as attorneys for
the receiver, for the auxiliary receiver and
petitioning creditors. This cannot be paid
until the bankrupts real estate in Tennes-
see has been sold.
