DA YTON'S s DECISION
IN BANKRUPT CASE
That Intervening Petition May
Be Filed at Death of Bank
rupt is a Precedent.

MARTINSBURG, Dec. 30-At the
special term of the federal court held
here Tunesday by Judge Aston G.
Dayton. the suit to adjudicate the es-
tate of the late William n. Crawford
as bankrupt, was taken up and ar
gued by the attorneys, and at the
conclusion Of the arguments Judge
Dayton announced that he would
grant the petition of the creditors
and declare the estate bankrupt. The
estate, therefore, will take its usual
course through the court, and
further hearings will be held before
referee Thomas, in this city, on some
disputed points.
In connection with this case, Judge
Dayton established precedent In
bankruptcy proceedings by ruling
that an intervening petition in bank
ruptcy may be filed after the death
of the alleged bankrupt. It is said
that this is the first time decision
has ever been handed down on this
point in the courts.
As will be remembered, the Craw-
ford Wooien Company, Of which Mr..
Crawford was president, was adtudi-
Gated a bankrupt by Judge Dayton,
and shortly thereafter suit was
brought by creditors to adjudicate
Mr.. Crawford personally "a bankrupt.
While this suit was pending, Mr..
Crawford died, and after his death an
intervening petition was filed through
Attorney A. c. McIntire by the Ocean
Accident & Guaranty Company, of
New York, for a claim of $1,000. This
intervening petition was contested
by the heirs, hut was upheld by the
court, which ruled that death does
not abate the right to file such PEI
tition.
Judge Dayton stated that he hoped
this point would be taken to a higher
court, in order that the principle
might be established or rejected.

DENIES M'LAURIN STORY
Tillman Says He Didn't Say Bleases
Election Was Price of Peace.

News and Courier.
Washington, June 4.--When asked ii
he had any comment to make upon the
recent public reference 10 himself by
Gubernational Candidate John L. Nc
Laurin, Senator Tillman this afternoon
dictated the following statement:
81 have jusl seen telegram from
The News and Courier to it's corre-
spondent here saying McLaurin has
made public statement 70 this eff
feet: 4 am glad that Senator Tillman
has reached the conclusion that peace
can only come through the election,
no. the defeat, of Governor Blease,
and that his candidate, Richards, has
declared for Governor Blease.'
80 say l am surprised, very much
surprised, does no: express my feel
ings. I have not given out any such
u.terance, and have not had any such
thought. I am sure that wha ever
may be Mr.. Richards attitude he will
regret ever having declared for Gov
ernor Blease. Whether peace will
come by Governor Blease's defeat or
not, know the Safes good name
will be preserved and we will have a
better senate here than if Blease is
sent to Washington.
''Of course, McLaurin is swinging
on to Blease's coat tail in desper-
ate hope that he will thus be pulled
through and elec,ed governor, but as
predicted some months ago, there
is no hope for him ever recovering
the confidence of the people o. South
Carolina until he has explained his
past misdeeds and sins
"I am satisfied that if Senator smi.h h
bears himself like a man that this
open alliance between Blease and Nc
Laurin will only help to bury both of
them. Had McLauTin followed my ad-
vice and exposed Bleaseism, its utter
selfshness, is lack Of catholicitg Of
spirit and Craftsmanship, ne would
have stood some chance OF coming
back in the future, for he would have
atoned for his betrayal Of the people
of the State. But now there is no
earthly chance for him whatever
Blease does. believe this alliance
between the Two will cause Governor
BIease 10 go down to defeat more
surely

LOOK TO j. s. AS
SAVIOR OF EUROPE
PEACE ADVOCATES FROM HUN
GARY IN AMERICA ON BE.
HALF OF MEDIATION

1t is time ~ for all neutral
countries to be Z. Fressively neural
in demanding the cessation Of this
t.-' before the last man is killed and
the man and child starved to
death ID Rosikia Schimm er, peace
advocate LIN hungary, who mas ar
rived in this country with one idea
in mind, and Thu is to appeal to our
pI resident to make more insistent Of
fers Of mediation.
We look to the United States as
the savior of Europe and We implo1e
you to come TO our aid before it is too
late, before there is nothing left to
mediate and no Europe to build up.
Your president offered mediation at
the outbreak of the war" explained
Mrs. 'Schimmer earnestly, land added
that if it was not wanted now lie
would be glad to be called upon later
call would be equivalent TO a confeg-
slon on the part Of the nation demand
ing mediation that it had reached the
end of its resources and not one Ct
The belligerent nations would eVe.
consent to that. Then let him call
the government representatives OF
such countries whose neutrality Isl
undoubtedly disinterested, among
these being Switzerland, Holland,
Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Spain.
No conventional diplomacy should be
allowed to interfere with what is best
shortest quickest and surest way to
hasten mediation" urges Mrs. Schim-
mer. We cannot afford to complicate
the situation by national sensitive
ness for your country which has prov
en- to the world that even the most
difficult questions can be settled by
uonmilitary agreement If President
Wilson viii listen to our plea and
keep renewing mis- offers of medi.
alton, eventually tie countries at war
must listen to him and TO reason.
then perhaps, this earthquake of civ
tiizat!on going on may DO checked
and out Of the cities left standing and
the few people left alive a new world
a little nearer our hearts desire
may be built up"
