Receiver is Appointed. ’Tliomasville, Ga., June $>—On the order of Judge Speer in the federal J. M. Wilkinson, of Valdosta, ■.wag appointed receiver for j. L. Phil¬ lips & Co.*,' Tallahassee Saw Mill Company, and Cherokee Saw Mill .Company, of tills city. It is a friendly suit on part of stock¬ holders for protection of extensive properties. They own saw mills and •extensive timber lands in Florida and Georgia, and have assets of over $1,00(1,000; liabilities $100,000. It is thought the receivership will be of but short standing, as the firm is as sound as any in the state. Inability to realise on as ets of fixed character is the cause of the s c tvership.
