Interesting Case
W. Frank St*nit, Referee In Bank
ruptcy, lias returned from Buckhan
non, where he ruled upon an Interest
ing oase. Inthecasc of S. .C. Wolf,
the question whethdr a judgement for
a-line Imposed by the Circuit Court
upon an indictment for a violation" of
the law is a "provable debt," Referee
Stout ruled that it was, and the court

attorneys to appeal the case to the
United States Supreme Court, in the.
event that Judge Jackson sustains the
ruling. In a like case Judge Jackson
ruled that such a debt was a "prova
ble debf'atid In all likelihood the case
