A PERMANENT RECEIVER.
________

Mr. George Meyer in Charge of the Wolters Brewing Company.

   The question of the appointment of a permanent receiver for the P. H. Wolters Brewing Company came up before Judge Falligant at noon yesterday, and quite an array of legal talent was present to take part in the proceedings.
    It was one of those matters with which the court often has to deal, and as Judge Falligant is just back from his summer vacation and was in unusually good spirits, quite a number of pleasantries passed between the court and counsel.
    Col. William Garrard represented creditors and others applying the present bill for a permanent receiver, and he started his side of the case.
    Mr. T. S. Morgan, of Seabrook, Morgan & Way, was the attorney who brought the former bill which he dismissed later. He said he had in the interests of some of the creditors, stolen away at the dead of night, and had gone to Emanuel county, where he got Judge Gamble to sign an order appointing a temporary receiver. He came back, he said, and was told that some of the liabilities alleged in his bill has not yet matured. He noticed in the present bill that they had matured with surprising rapidity. At ant rate under the representations and statements made, and assurances that everything would be all right, he gave notice that he would dismiss the bill. "Now," he said with a tinge of sadness in his voice, "we are out and they are in, and I have simply filed these mortgages to protect the creditors I represent."
    The little troubles of life are hard to bear," suggested the court.
    "Not so little, may it please your honor," promptly responded Mr. Morgan.
    It was then explained that some of the debts referred to have matured, and that due bills for the amounts had been given, since the statements and representations mentioned had been made to Mr. Morgan.
    "Is there any objection to Mr. Morgan's bill being reinstated?" asked Judge Falligant.
    There may be," suggested Col. Garrard.
    "I move," said Mr. Morgan, "for the reinstatement of my bill."
    "I may let it come in as an intervention for damages," said the court in answer. "well, gentlemen, what do you propose?"
    Col. Garrard proposed Mr. George Meyer for permanent receiver. He said Mr. Meyer was familiar with the business and that he was the best man to operate it. He stated that the assets, if sold outright, would not amount to more than $20,000, but that the property as a plant was really worth much more than that. there was nothing there, however, he said, that the receiver could walk away with. In the hands of the court, he said, everything could be managed and rearranged satisfactorily.
    "Well, the court has about exhausted the calendar," remarked Judge Falligant. "This is about the only business it hasn't been in during the past year, and now its got a brewery on its hands."
    Col. Garrard suggested that the amount of the receiver's bond be $10,000.
    Mr. Morgan thought it should be in double that amount of their property, or that it should be $20,000 at the lowest estimate. It was stated by Mr. Meyer that the amount of personal and movable property was about $10,000 in amount and a bond of $15,000 was finally compromised upon. The order appointing Mr. Meyer permanent receiver was drawn up and signed be (sic) Judge Falligant. Sheriff Ronan, the temporary receiver, will turn over the keys to the new receiver as soon as he files his bond and qualifies. The plant will be operated under the receivership.
     An intervention was filed yesterday by the MORNING NEWS through its attorneys for $177.76, the amount of an account against the company.
