Court Session—President Judge George Kunkel refused temporarily to grant a charter to the Jitneurs' Indemnity Association to-day, pen ding a study of the act of incorpora tion. The charter application was presented to-day but Judge Kunkel stated he did not believe the court under the charter act could grant it to such a corporation. He explained the law permitted incorporation of beneficiary organizations to pay death and sickness claims. The charter of the Fin and Feath er Club of Harrisburg, an organiza tion for the protection of game and game birds, was presented also, but •Judge Kunkel refused to make an order in which a decree was includ ed prohibiting the sale of intoxicat ing liquor. The court ruled such a statement should be made voluntar ily in the application as the court had no authority to make such a provision in a decree. Two liquor license transfers were granted as follows: David Katzman to Howard O. Holstein, license of ho tel at 311 Verbeke stret, city; Daniel Frank Barbush to James Barbush, license of Mansion House, First Ward, Middletown.

He is residing at present with one of the sons, who brought suit against his brothers. While 'attorneys in several of the cases listed for civil court next week were not present when the suits were called all but one was marked for trial the case of the Merchants' Ice Company vs. Charles Ott being re ported as settled. Owing to the ill ness of Judge S. J. M. McCarrell it is likely another judge will be called to come here next week to assist in disposing of the cases.
