The testimony showed that the plaintiffs purchased several hundred head of sheep in Socorro county which were to be delivered at Lamy Junction by the defendant. When the shipment arrived in Lamy a number of sheep were missing and the plaintiffs brought a replevin suit against Salas for that number. A judgment was found and the defendant requested to deliver the missing sheep or refund the money paid for them to the plaintiff. B. S. Rodey represented the defendant and E. V. Chavez appeared for the plaintiff. The question of the allowance of the indebtedness against the bankrupt. J. A. Johnson. came up on a petition for a review of the findings of the exceptions of the allowance of the referee, B. S. Rodey, on a note of $7,000.

McMillen appeared for the agent of the stockholders of the defunct A1buquerque National bank, while Johnston & Finical looked out for the interests of the receiver of the New Mexico Savings Bank and Trust company.
