Suit Seeks Profits Of Dissolved Firm

In Charleston common pleas court, dissolution of the United Distrib uting company of Charleston beverage distributors was agreed upon by partners. Judge A S Alexander weighs exceptions to a report in the suit by A W Reusch against M R Mathews and the firm, with O C West as third partner. Reusch seeks receiver appointment and accounting for profits, claiming Mathews kept his share and denied Reusch his one third. Mathews contends withholding was to determine amounts due, not to remove Reusch as head. Nearly 100 vessels are under construction in Italy.
