Of concealing assets from the receiver
Of their bankrupt firm.

tive settlement, which would have IN
volved heavy losses on the part OF
their creditors, was rejected, the IN
debtcdness paid in full and a surplus

"Hesitations" is right. Miss Martha
Klatschken objected TO the name, on
the ground that the vote was practl-

misleading TO the general public. Mrs.
Gillette insisted, however, that the

the new dances, and therefore most APP

ers than those who leased the wires use
them for commercial business.
The witnesses examined Yesterday,
chiefly officials and employees Of te.e-
graph companies, testified that ne

growth. that their use for commercial
business IS denied, and that IN every
instance commercial business has the
preference over leased wire business.
Thus, in the event of wires beng

merciai wires at message rates until
the commercial needs were provided
