SPEe..D COLLECTIONS. County Court business will be les' 'Fened and tha: of the Diviston, Court somewhat increased as a result of new regulations, Under 'the old regulations person could not be sued in 1 he clir- deion court on a eolleetion charge ov Cr 860, but this amount has been in- creased to 8120. A promissorY note action. in extless .of 8200 could not be heard in the eourt, but oow enaction up to $400 can be tried without takteet it to the county court. Similarly there is a change in re gent to contract suit. A. charge ran now be heard in ,the diviserin court up to $200 instead of $100. In view a. the fact the elivision, court in the city sits once a me•nth and in the county every two months, collections can be handled with greater speed, for county court only sits twice a year.
