Injunction Granted in Baltimore Savings Case
Federal Judge Waddill granted an injunction in favor of the Monumental Savings Association 6% Baltimore against BR. B. Fentress of Norfolk. Ventreas sued the association in Baltimore for 30000 on a wreck subscription of 100000 to the Norfolk Cold Storage and Ice Company. The association counter-sued Norfolk to recover 20000 subscribed, alleging the full 400000 total was required and that an 8000 fake subscription was made to reach that sum. The injunction bars moving evidence from this district and halts the Baltimore suit of Fentress & Zeb Vance Yarn. The report also includes a long anecdote about Senator Vance and a Roosevelt wartime ride.
