After an exhaustive investigation G.
Earl Hoffman, appointed by Judge Will
liam B. Sheppard as special master in
the case of the Columbia Trust Com
pany VS.. the, G.. f. & A. railroad sub
mtted his report yesterday morning,
and fixed the amount due the plaintiff
at si.723, 50S.19.
This is a step in the chain Of litiga-
tion resulting from the appointment of
4 receiver last spring on a general
creditors bill filed by Hubert C. Man
deville. The bondh olders, represented
by the Columbia Trust Company as
trustee, then interviewed, and requested
that the receivership be made in their
name, and the court ordered special
master to determine the amount of in
debtedness OF the railroad.
Mr.. Hoffman states that the original
sum advanced on the bonds was Si,ii0.-
600 and that interest to date brings it
to the amount mentioned above.
