H0LL0MAA ARB|TER
ATTORNEYS CLANCY AND WILSON
AGREE ON DETERMINATION OF
CONTROVERSY; RECEIVER ELY
PLACED ON STAND THIS AFTER
NOON

Whether Ralph Ely, as receiver OF
the New Mexico Central railway, was
justified in spending certain sums OF
money belonging to the road on var.
ious trips, east and west, with the
avowed object Of trying to sell the
road, is largely a matter of Judgment
of the court now presided over by
Judge Reed Holloman.
This was decided this afternoon
when Attorney Frank w. Clancy, rep.
resenting Mr.. Ely, and Attorney Fran.
els G. Wilson, of counsel for the Pitts
burgh Trust company, now seeking to
remove Mr.. Ely as receiver, stated
they agreed that there is no difference
Of opinion between them as to the
proper means of determining whether
or not Mr.. Ely has spent money in
excess of what was necessary. Mr..
Clancy explained to the court, however,
that 1t seems proper for him as coun-
sci for Mr.. Ely to show justification
for his client.
The question came out when Judge
Holloman asked: what authority has
a court to make verbal directions to
a receiver in regard to expenses and
allowances without any other party in
terested being consulted or informed"
The judges question followed the in
PRODUCTION of the argument by Mr..
Ely in his answer to the motion to
have him ousted from the receiver
ship that Former District Judge Ed
mund G. Abbott had talked over the
attempts to sell the road and the incl
dental expenses for travelling.
Following the announcement that
both sides were willing to leave it to
the courts judgment whether Mr..
Ely was justified in making the many
trips he took to sell the road, Judge
HoIloman said that counsel could pro-
coed in any form to bring out their
objections.
Mr.. Wilson thereupon called Mr..
Ely as the first witness.
Ely on the Stand
Mr.. Ely took the stand at 2:45 p. M,
and counsel for the Pittsburgh COM
pany piled him with questions about
various trips and their object and
what had been accomplished.
