WILLIAMS WINS IN
SUIT OVER tavern
Court Decides That Build
ing May Be Sold
For Him

That there was no fraud in the
method OF obtaining the decree oi
the Circuit court rendered on Feb
ruary 8, 1920, by which the special
commissioners were empowered to
sell the Skinner Hotel property
was the decision handed down by
Judge Raymond Of the Circuit
court yesterday and. therefore the
injunction sought by the Schmul-
bach Brewing company was retus-
ed, The decree Of last February
ordered that $29,500 which B. G.
williams claimed was owing to
him from the brewing company, be
paid or else the Tavern Is to be
sold by Attorneys James A. Mere.
dith and Rollo ]. Conley.
An Interesting feature of the de-
cision was a reference to tele-
phone conversation that Hubbard
and Hubbard, attorneys for the
plaintiffs allege they had with At
torney Meredith. Mr.. Meredith de-
MED having had any such conyer-
sation. 1t was on this claim that
q charge of fraud was made.
The history OF the case extends
over a period of almost two years.
Mr, Williams, who formerly operat-
ed SINNERS Tavern, and built the
back end OF a modern building at
the rear of the old hotel with the
idea Of building a front later IN
keeping with the rear, asked for
$4,000 which he had paid TO the
brewing company on a contract
with interest to date amounting u
$2s,5OO.
The suit was filed in April, 1918,
and was ready for trial at the No
yenfber term of court that year.
Hubbard and Hubbard, attorneys
for the brewing company, Of
Wheeling, took no action In the
case and ON the last day OF that
term OF court a decree was grant
ed W. S. Meredith, James A. Mere
dith and Rollo ]. Conley, for Mr..
Williams. This decree gave the
brewing company thirty days 10
pay the claim or provided that the
property be sold.
Acting under the terms OF the de-
cree, james A. IhGIculLu hhN AhoHN
]. Conley, special commissioners,
advertised the property for sale.
On the day before the sale was TO
be made, claim was made that the
decree had been obtained by fraud
and an Injunction was asked for
prohibiting the sale OF the proper
ty. The special commissioners
agreed not to sell until Judge Hay
mond could pass upon this point.
When the case came up on Wed
nesday, the allegations Of fraud
were not proven and the decree
was permitted to stand.
1t appears from what Mr.. VIII
liams says, that at the time wher
saloons were in operation he had
made arrangements with the
Schmulbach Brewing company by
which he was to take back the
property and pay them out Of the
profits Of the saloon. Something
like $4,000 was paid under this
arrangement. 1t is this money that
Mr.. Williams seeks.

fell SO thick and wet that pedes-

considerable discomfort for a short
time.
The snow settled everywhere and
remained intact on window sills,
tree branches and house tops. but
in the road It soon dissolved into
mud and sulsh making. the roads
very slippery. Tho temperature was
not uncomiOrtably cold though q
sharp wind around, the corners of
buildings on Main street caused
many to walk swiftly,
The snow this nooE covered faces
cIinging tensctously to eyelashes
and noses, and entirely oblitarating
the proper outline of hats. On uot-
door steps In stores and in offices
there was much stamping Of feet
and much shaking OF outdoor ap-
pareI, to remove the affectionate
SNOW.

time today, the sun shown for a
