FIRE COMMISSIONERS SUED.
William Gilbert Says He Was IIIe-
gaIIy, Dismissed.

William Gilbert, formerly captain of
| the hook and ladder brigade in the fire
! department, begins suit inthe Third dis
trict court today for a writ of certiorari
against the board of police and fire COM
miSsioners ana against the individual
members of said board. The plaintiff
alleges that for many years past and
i until August IL last, he was a
member of the fire department; that the
board on June 20 unlawfully suspended
and dismissed him indefinitely from the
service on the pretended ground of his
being physically disqualified; upon
which he demanded to be restored, but
the commissioners declined to do So
contrary to the provisions Of the police
and fire bill as passed by the late ter
ritorial legislature. 1t is also alleged
that the commissioners made no speci-
fication of the charges preferred against
him and that contrary to law they
compelled him to submit to a physical
examination, and that under the law
the board had no power to compel those
who were in the department when the
law went into effect to be subjected to
examination. In this it is claimed the
board exceeded its jurisdiction.
Wherefore the plaintiff prays that a
writ be issued compelling the board to
certify to the court its proceedings and
fully answer the allegations, and that
upon the hearing the plaintiff NAV be
restored to his position.
Attorneys Powers and Straup are act
ing for the plaintiff and it is expected
this interesting case, involving as it
does. the rights of the old members of
the IRE department, will be fought to a
finish.

FRAUDULENT PREFERENCE.
Alleged to Have Been Made BY the
Utah Stationery Company.

The Higgins & Tooker company
have begun suit in the Third district
court against the Utah Book and Sta
tionery company, the National Bank of

Barrow, and the Western Book and
Stationery company to obtain the set
ting aside of a preference in the sum
of $4,000 in favor of the National Bank

signed by the directors of the station
cry company in their individual ca
pacity; also that the sales by E.. w.
Duncan as assigned to ]. L. Barrow
and the the latter to the Western Book
and Stationery company were fraudu-
lent. Wherefore it is prayed that such

ence to the National Bank of the Re-
public be also set aside, and that a re-
ceiver be appointed to take charge of
the assets of the Utah Book and Sta
tionery company.
