THE VICTORY IN
yARYAN CASE IS
COMPLETE ONE
ADDITIONAL NEWS is RE-
CElvED ON DECISION HAND
ED DOWN BY THE UNITED
STATES SUPREME COURT.

An additional telegram received by
Judge Max Isaac, of counsel for the
receivers in the Yaryan litigation yes
terday, from the clerk of the supreme
court at Washington, shows that the
victory for the receivers was more
sweeping than it was at first thought
to be- There was not even an opinion
handed down in the case, but the petit
ton of Blair, as trustee for certiorari,
was bodily thrown out of court. AS
stated in The News yesterday morn
ing this last act in the long-drawn-out
litigation practically makes the ireor-
ganizaton of the plant certainty and
that, too, at a date, perhaps not later
than October Is. The case has been
very stubbornly fought in all of the
courts and the attorneys for the re-
ceiver, Messrs. Bennett, Twitty &
Reese and Judge Max Isaac of this
city and A. H. Hayward of Macon,
have left no stone unturned in the in
terest Of retaining the litigation in
the jurisdiction of the Georgia courts.
In the last act of the fight, Judge Isaac
and Colonel Reese spent several days
in Washington, during which an en-
tirely new brief was submitted and
on that final brief the greatest and
most far-reaching victory has been
won
The practical result of the ruling of
the high court means that a motion
will be made before Judge Speer in a
few days for permission to sell the
plants at Brunswick and Gulfport, the
petition will in the nature of things
be granted, the properties at both
points will then be sold, perhaps on
the first Tuesday in August and the
work of reorganization will be pushed
along as rapidly as possible.
Brunswick people were very happy
yesterday over the big victory won at
Washington and all of the attorneys
IN the case were cordially congratulate
cd on the splendid results achieved,
which means much for Brunswick and
which really is one of the largest cases
carried from Georgia to the highest
court in the United States in years.
Developments in the situation are
looked for now as speedily as they can
be carried forward.

WARE COUNTY
WANTS A ROAD
TO THIS CITY
THAT COUNTY STARTS TO
WORK ON ITS END OF AUTO
HIGHWAY BETWEEN THE
TWO CITIES.

The strong good roads campaign in
augurated by the Merchantss' asoscia-
ton is attracting wide attention
throughout the. counties surrounding
Glynn county and is developing the
very remarkable fact that our neigh
bors in Ware Wayne, Pierce, Bacon
and other nearby counties are and
have been more anxious to get into
close connection with us than we
have been to get them, at least ap-
parently we have not shown very
great anxiety to be very neighborly
with them until recently. The desire
OF these interior counties to be near
to the sea is best shown in the spirit
of letter just received by the Board
of Trade from j. d. Mitchell, clerk of
the Ware county commissioners.
From the letter it is very clear that
Wayne county and Waycross fully re-
alize the Importance to them of a
highway to the sea and Mr.. Mitchell
points out that with our splendid sea-
side resorts as the attraction at this
end of the line a ROAD between that
city and Brunswick should and un.
doubtedly would be heavily used.
The letter explains that the Ware
county board would have had it's men
at work on the stretch of road be-
tween Waycross and Brunswick
months ago but for tie fact that the
Dixie highway movement took atten.
ton away for the time being and made
1t necessary for their board to post.
pone this work until the present.
The letter which will be brought to
the attention of the Glynn county
commissioners is as follows:
Some time in April you wrote us
about the stretch of road between
Brunswick and Waycross, and at that
time we wrote you stating that Ware
county had planned to do this piece
or work, since that time we have been
putting our best efforts forward or
the eastern route of the Dixie high
way, ana now that we have this road
IN such splendid shape, so much SC
that we believe the Georgia short
cut Will be designated officially by the

we feel that we can do some work or
TINS piece of road mentioned by youl

we feel that your county will be

SITUATION.

WASHINGTON, June 15.-Presi
dent Wilson today told callers that
the plans of the United States for
dealing with the Mexican situation
were not completely formed as yet.
but that the situation semed to be

proclamation of General CarranZa and
the memorandum from General Villa
in answer to the presidents recent
statement to the factions that they
must adjust their differences or some
other means would be found bv the
United States to restore a government
in Mexico.
Mr.. Wilson had not studied the
documents in detail, but indicated
that he intended to examine them

AN AGREEMENT
IS NOW REACHED
Ships of the Company Are to
Return to Old Downtown
Wharves.
CHANGE TO OCCUR SOON
Officials in This City, However,
Have Note Been Notified and
the Date of Change Is Not
Known.

While nothing definite can be Sc
cured from officials in Brunswick, it
is known positively that the Mallory
Steamship company has finally COM
pleted negotiations with the Southern
railway for the use of Their downtown
terminals, foot of Mansfield street,
and it is understood that the ships of
the company, now using the A, B..
& A. terminals at the south end, will
begin to arrive and depart from the
Southern terminals, known :: ; the old
Mallory line wharf, within a few
weeks.
1t was stated two or three months
ago that the Mallory line would again
use their old terminals and, while it
was expected the change would be
made long before this, there were
bitches in the negotiations, which, for
time, almost caused the company to
abandon the plan. Two or three con-
ferences were held between officials
or the Southern and the Mallory line,
two of them in Brunswick, and the
subject was thoroughly discussed, but
Since that time considerable CORE
spondence has been exchanged be-
, tween the railroad and steamship
company, with the result that an
agreement has finally been reached.
Efforts were made yesterday to as
certain just when the ships of the
line would begin using the downtown
tnrn1inQlcy hrIf
seemed to know; in fact they stated
that they had not been informed that
such deal had been closed. The
News learned, however, authentically,
that the Mallory line has decided to
change and that it is probable that
the company will abandon the A., B..
& A. terminals within the next month.
AS is we'll known to the people Of
Brunswick, the Mallory line used the
terminals at the foot of Mansfield
street for more than 25 years. When
the line withdrew several years ago,
the clyde line taking it's place, the
A., B. & A. terminals had just been
completed and the Clyde line decided
to use these wharves, and then when
the Mallory re-entered the port the
ships of this company continued to
use the south end terminals.
Merchants and people of the city
generally will be glad to learn that
the old Southern terminals are to be
used again. 1t will mean a big saving
in the matter of drayage alone, and
will also serve to liven up the down
town river front.
1t is understood that the Coast
Line, Southern and A., B. & A. will all
have trackage rights into the termi-
nails, such an agreement having been
reached some time ago.
