was driver for the Crystal Springs

that Judgment should be entered in

to whether judgment could be enter

Grout and Fleming Cases to

BOTH DISCHARGED
FROM BANKRUPTCY
Arrested on Executions to Collect
County Court udgments-Question
Whether Bankruptcy Proceedings
Discharge Damage Claims

Habeas corpus proceedings in behalf
of Ralph G. Grout and William S.
Fleming, seeking their release as de-
PENDANTS in actions brought against
them for damages, have been brought
by their attorney, Hermon f. Eddy.
a hearing on the habeas corpus writs
will be given Monday afternoon at >
O'Clock by Judge Willard w. Miles at
the county courthouse in Newfane
Mr.. Grout, who is son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Marshall ID. Grout of Washington

plumbing business here, were granted
a discharge from bankruptcy follow
ing hearing in BrattlebOro Monday,
md were then arrested on executions
TO collect county court judgments
against them. but were released on
bail, furnished by their counsel. Their
claim is that their discharge from
bankruptcy relieves them from paying
the county court judgments.
The law question involved is prae-
tically without precedent in Vermont,
and the outcome of the cases will be
watched with interest. Whatever
Judge Miles : decision, it is probable
that the cases will be appealed 70 the
supreme court. so that several months
will clapsc before the eases are finally
determined. Chase & Daley are at
tornevs for the plaintiffs.

ST. JOHN $, Newfoundland. Oct.

expenditures formed the chief issue in
the Montreal election held in New

micr, Sir Edward Morris, urged the
election of his supporters to 36 seats
in the assembly on the plea that he
had done much TO develop the country
by the policy of government aid in

headed by Sir Robert Bond, assailed
this policy as too expensive and plac-
ing needless tax on the revenues.
