OGLETHORPE CASE
IS FINALLY ENDED
JUDGE sPEER AFFlRMs DECISION
or LOWER COURT AGAINST
HOTEL RESORT co.

a telegram was received in the
city yesterday announcing that
Judge Emory Speer had affirmed the
decision rendered by Referee Isaac
some time ago in the case Of the
American Hotel Resort company,
which concern was thrown into bank
ruptcy when it was the lessee Of the
Oglethorpe hotel. and while the hos
telry has been removed from the
case altogether. the coIG Rai1y which
formerly operated It IS stin in the
courts.
p6e' decision affirmed by Judge
Speer was on a petition filed by r.
D. Meader. representing the hotel
company, claiming that the local
court did not have Jurisdiction to
handle the Nase, owing to the fact
that the corporation was a foreign
one, chartered in New Jersey A. j.
and A. n. Croyatt, representing var.
Gus creditors. fought the petition OF
the hotel company, winning before
Referee Isaac and now before Judg
Speer.
The decision yesterday places the
company in bankruptcy, but whethe-
or not any further action will be tax
en- is not known. 1t is probable how
ever, that this will be the end Of
the case. The receiver Is holding ia
trust some 81 500 and it is likely that
this sum viii be used to defray court
expenses and the balance distributed
among various creditors and thus end
the case.
