Receiver Appointed
Atlanta, July 11 --- Yesterday a creditors bill was filed by W. A. Russell & Co. against the New Era Saloon, and Mr. Robert J. Jordan was appointed receiver. This morning when Mr. Jordan called at the saloon to take charge of it, he found that its proprietor has sold out to James Johnson. Another creditors bill was filed, but before anything was done Whack Bailey and James Johnson paid the amount due Russell & Co., and the claim was withdrawn.
