Haroldson & Colton, attorneys at Du- 

 luth, referring to the item in last week's 

 Review about garnisheeing the judg- 

 ment obtained by Louis Visias, against 

 his landlords, at Duluth, state that there 

 is an action pending in the Municipal 



court of Chicago on the claim of the A, 

 L. Randall Co. They add: "We wish 

 therefore that in order to vindicate 

 Mr. Visias you would publish a state- 

 ment to the effect that Mr. Visias denies 

 owing A. L. Randall Co, any sum what- 

 soever, and that he states that this gar- 

 nishment is uncalled for on account of 

 the large amount of property that he 

 has, which can be levied upon at any 

 time that a judgment is recovered, and 

 that proceedings have been started here 

 to have the action and garnishment dis- 

 missed. "
