BOSSING IHE REMAINS.
Mr. Albright Still in Charge of the
DefunCt Insurance Company.

Defunct Insurance Company.
Much against his will, w. G., Albright
still holds the position of receiver of the de-
| funct Nebraska and Iowa fire insurance com
pany.
He expected to be relieved of the task of
| caring for the books, notes and accounts of
the company, but he is in a position where
| he cannot let go until Monday morning, if
| then.
At the last hearing before Judge Wakeley,
yesterday was set as the time ior banding
| down the name of man for the receiver
| ship. There has since been clash of opin-
| ion, the state officers wanting d. p. Wepton
| and the old company wanting S. j. Howell to
| settle up the affairs. The fight has
been a bitter one and the Judge
| has decided to ignore both sides in the selec-
| tion of man. He will appoint receiver,
| one who will be satisfactory to the court.
In this connection William Coburn is the man
| who ndoubtedly will be selected. though he
| does not want the joo, having had his fill OF
this line of business in settling up the affairs
of the Bank of Omaha. This morning when
| Judge Wakeley went upon the bench to de-
| liver his opinion in the case he lntimated that
| an Investigation reveals tho fact that III the
management of the company not only the
| public has been imposed upon, but a large
amount of property has been spirited
! away. Whoever is appointed to the
position of receiver will not only be expected
| to look after the interests of the public, but
he will also be expected to investigate the
fraudulent transactions and prosecute the
guilty parties to the full extent of the law.
For this reason no man who has ever been
connected with the company should act as
receiver.
Monday morning the appointment will be
made and the party so appointed will be re-
quircd to give bonds in the sum of $40, 600,
which may be increased should it become
necessary.
The position is not regarded as a snap, as
there is vast amount of work in sight
w mn he m edo md
get out of the way.
Both the state and the insurance
company people will be satisfied with
the appointment of Coburn and will drop the
fight if ne is named by the court.
In Judge Davis court the case of Z. T.
Ringer VS. j. B. Patterson is on trial. Ringer

In Judge Wakeley's room the equity docket
