A dispatch from Denison, Tex., says: **A circular has been received here concern- ing the recent decision of Judge Wint in regard to the Tron Hall fund. The circular directs that all money must be turned over to the receiver. The issuing of the circular has developed the fact that the Iron Hall has never applied for or received a charter to operate in vhe state of ‘f'exas, and in con- sequence the fund of several thousand dol- lars tied up here cannot be taken from the state by judicial process.
