I. NATURE AND GROUNDS.
(B) Grounds of Attachment.
40 (Mo.App.) The statutory ground for at-
tachment relating to property fraudulently as-
signed refers only to written assignments, and
is inapplicable to a verbal sale of goods, espe-
cially as another ground for attachment covers
property fraudulently disposed of.-Douglass
Candy Co. v. Shenk, 194 S. W. 754.

VI. PROCEEDINGS TO SUPPORT OR
ENFORCE.

211 (Ky.) Where defendant did not deny allegation in affidavit that she and her codefendjudgment, or that collection would be endangerants did not have property in state to satisfy ed by delay and return of no property found, court properly sustained attachment as against defendant.-Daugherty v. Bell Nat. Bank, 194 S. W. 545.

I. THE OFFICE OF ATTORNEY. (A) Admission to Practice.

340(3) (Ky.) To perfect a lien for supplies furnished to a company which made an assignment for benefit of creditors, no notice need be filed with the county clerk as provided by Ky. 7 (Tenn.) The question as to whether an St. § 2494, but some proceedings to enforce the lien must be begun within the 60-day period fixed by section 2491.-Rockcastle Lumber Co. v. Burns, 194 S. W. 95.

The filing of a verified claim for a lien for supplies furnished with the assignee for benefit of creditors within 60 days after the assignment is sufficient to protect the lien.-Id.

A stipulation in the contract appointing a creditors' committee that the property might be sold and the proceeds should stand in lieu of the property, and that none of the rights of creditors should be prejudiced thereby, does not excuse a lien claimant from taking the necessary legal steps to perfect his lien.-Id.

ASSOCIATIONS.

See Insurance, 718-819; Physicians and
Surgeons, 9.

25 (Tex.Civ.App.) When persons form voluntary associations, and adopt rules, under which members may be admitted and expelled, such rules are articles of agreement to which all who have become members are parties.-Brown v. Harris County Medical Soc., 194 S. W. 1179.

10 (Tex.Civ.App.) Where voluntary association under its rules expels a member, such mem

applicant alleged to be in the practice of soliciting lawsuits and dividing fees is a proper person to be admitted as an attorney is for the determination of the state board of law examiners under Acts 1903, c. 247, § 5.-In re Bowers, 194 S. W. 1093.

9 (Tenn.) Acts 1903, c. 247, § 5, relating to the admission of attorneys to practice, contemplates that the Supreme Court shall issue the license if the applicant is qualified as shown by the certificate of the state board of law examiners.-In re Bowers, 194 S. W. 1093.

(C) Suspension and Disbarment. 44(2) (Ky.) In order to make out a case under Ky. St. § 104, it is only necessary to show that attorney wrongfully neglected or refused after demand made of him in county of his resito pay over a client's money collected by him dence.-Denny v. Commonwealth, 194 S. W. 330. A disagreement between attorney and client as to costs and amount of his fee held not to justify retention by attorney of whole sum collected.-Id.

A delay for only a reasonable time to be determined by circumstances will not authorize suspension from practice.-Id.

Retention of money belonging to a client for

months after formal demand therefor was made

support an express contract to pay an attor-
ney's fee will not sustain recovery on a quan-
tum meruit.-G. R. Scott, Boone & Pope v.
Willis, 194 S. W. 220.

46 (Ky.) As purpose of Ky. St. § 104, is to
require attorneys to maintain a high standard of
conduct not only as trusted agents of clients,
but as officers of court, mere reparation to

714.

166(2) (Mo.App.) In action by attorney on
contingent fee contract, testimony of defendant
that she was sick when she signed contract was

with full knowledge of its provisions and coun-
terclaimed upon its breach.-McCall v. Atchley,

(B) Lien.

189 (Mo.App.) An attorney held to have a
valid lien, under Rev. St. 1909, § 965, to one-
half the amount paid under a contract for com-
pensation, where the client settled directly with
the defendant in the action to which the con-
tract related.-Gillespie v. American Car &

considered.-Denny v. Commonwealth, 194 S.
