New Turn of Affairs IS

cal Business
FULL IMPORT UNKNOWN

By Master

Order for publication of notice Of
special masters sale of the entire
property of the Oklawaha Valley rail.
road, on December 5, has been re-
ceived here from Special Master F.
R. Hooker, CT Ocala, following a
notification which it is stated has
been sent to Receiver H. S. Cum
mings, of the road, not to issue re-
ceiver's certificates with which to
pay the taxes the road is now due
the state and Putnam and Marion
counties, amounting to $4,000.
This new turn of affairs was a
distinct surprise to local business
men who are vitally interested in
having the road continue operations.
Movements were on foot to finance
the road, fl the bondholders are real
ly sincere in their expressed desire
to have it off their hands. 1t is known
that an offer has been made for the
property to such of those who might
be in position to dispose of it, with
the consent ofsthe court.
The notice of sale cites authority
Of the special master in chancery
granted in final decree of foreclo-
sure dated December %, 1917. 1t
includes all of the rail line, roadbed
and other property from the termi-
nus of the road at Silver Springs to
Palatka.
Sheriff Also to Sell
Another notice of sheriff's sale of
the property previously advertised,
consisting of all rolling stock, shops,
machinery, etc, was also renewed
in a special order from Sheriff
Thomas, and will appear in The News
at a subsequent date.
This new turn of affairs is con-
strued here to mean that the own
ers, the bondholders, wish to regain
control of the road through a sale
which will enable them to dismiss
the receiver, take over the property
and junk it. The situation has reach
ed that stage where it is openly
stated that certain interests wish the
road junked and abandoned and that
these interests are willing to reim-
burse the bondholders, to some ex-
tent, for their losses. 1t is beyond
reason, it is pointed out, that under
a forced sale, that the bondholders
can hope to receive a sufficient am
ount of money to pay all of the roads
indebtedness and have a sufficient
left to reimburse, to any ex-
tent, the holders of the bonds.
1t was stated last night that under
the special masters sale the road
could only be sold as "going con-
,ern." In other words that it would
De sold with the understanding that
5he road must still operate and con-

New York, Oct. 28.-Marshall Foch

sped away to conquer the rest of the
country. New York surrendered with
out striking a blow. For long long
time the city has been waiting to
pay off just little of it's debt of
gratitude to the small man in hori-

martial chess had reduced the proud
armies of Germany, and this after
noon it seized it's opportunity.
Not since Dewey returned from
Manila, not since Armistice Day, did
the city's millions turn out with such
sEontaniety and in such numbers.
Had the hardy little Frenchman who

ridden up Broadway in a war chariot
dragging captives behind him like
the emperors of Rome, he could not
have received a greater welcome than
was accorded him as he rode up the
historic thoroughfare in a twentieth
century motor car enveloped in a
deluging shower of paper hurled from

greeted by Governor Miller, to City
Hall, where he was welcomed by
Mayor Hylan, he moved in a greater
triumphal procession after steaming
up the harbor to the boom of guns.

the banner of victory. General Per-
shing was the first to welcome his

France, soldier of soldiers of the

He was greeted with wild cheers at

1t is said, when much was written
about the decline of the movies. the
industry actually was in the most
prosperous period in its history.
The economies and elimination of
waste and extravaganza in the MAX
Ing of motion pictures effected at that
time by some of the leading produc-
ers was interpreted by many as
slump. In reality, the move was made
in anticipation Of the natural depres-
sion which came with the hot weather
four months later. Only this summer
has seen a prolonged period Of in
tense heat, which has accentuated
the expected depression and made it
worse than it would be normally.
