ORDER REARGUMENT
F. VIRGINIA DEBT CASE
Supreme Courts Power to En-.
force Judgment to Be Heard
Next February.

Washington. April 22.-The supreme
court today ordered a reargument of
proceedings instituted by the state of
Virginia to compel West Virginia to
pay judgment Of $t2.393, 900 resulting
from a suit to collect Virginis's civil
war debt.
The question Of the courts power to
enforce the judgment will be especially
considered in the argument which will
be heard next February. In announc-
ing this opinion Chief Justice White
declared that under the construction
should not pay the judgment and IL
no effort is made to meet the obliaa-
tion that the court reserved the right
to appoint a master to investigate the
financial situation in West Virginia and
its taxable resources with q view OF
enforcing the judgment.
