John H. Packard, in behalf OF him.
self and a number of others, yester-
day filed a complaint in an acton
against the Minnesota Loan Il Trust
company to recover possession of the
buckingham apartment house-for-
merly Hotel Barteau-property, ana TO
have a receiver appointed for the same
pending the final termination of the
action. According to the allegations
contained in the complaint the trust
company sold bonds to the extent of
100000 for the construction OF the
building by Mary and William L. Bar
teau. a trust deed being taken as Sc
curity. These bonds were sold to the
plaintiffs, and in the fall of 1898, de-
fault having been made in the pay
ments, the trust deed was foreclosed
and the property taken possession OF
by the trust company.
The complaint charges that the trust
company has not used due diligence,
care and skill in controlling the prem
ises and collecting the rents and other
income; that the apartments have been
allowed to become filthy and unclean,
so that many of them could not be
rented; that incompetent and unskill-
ployed, and many of the tenants have
abandoned the apartments for this rea-
SON. AS compensation for the losses on
this score, 5000 damages are demand
ed.
The complaint then goes on to allege
that 5000 has been expended without
authority by the trustee in making re-
pairs: that the persons for whom the
&c inc tod tho
buckingham Apartment House COM
pany, and have demanded that the
trustee transfer the property of this
company. but it has refused to do so;
that the trustee has failed to furnish
a complete statement Of account when
demand was made that it do so, but
has furnished a pretended statement,
representing that balance of $1,000 is
due it. whereas the plaintiffs claim the
trueamount due is only $4,00O,an have
rendered this amount, but the defend
ant has refused to accept it.
The court is asked to compel an ac-
counting, appoint a receiver to col
lect the rent and care for the property
pending the hearing and final termina-
ton of the action. and order the trus-
tee to transfer the property to the
buckingham Apartment House COM
pany.
The other persons interested in the
trust deed, in addition to Mr.. Packard,
are Charles P. Emmons, w. A. Pack
ard, George A. Pillsbury, c. e. Cur
Wen, as executor of the estate of
James B. Curwen; C. H. Bigelow, as
executor of the estate of John L. Mer-
riam; the Milwaukee hospital and sew
eral others. Pillsbury has the heavi-
est interest, $4,000 The others range
from 81, 200 to $4,000.

SUPREME COURT DECISIONS,
Important Ruling Filed in an In
Surance Case

Three decisions were handed down by
the supreme court yesterday, all writ
ten by Justice Buck. In two cases the
orders Of the lower courts are af-
firmed, while the third is a reversal.
IIhe syllabi in the cases follow:
Albert Cobb, as assignee of said
Company, appellant, VS.. The Fidelity
q Casualty Company of New York,
defendant. Claus Edward Nelson, in
terVener, respondent.
Anoka Lumber Company and Albert C..
Cobb, as assignee, co-plaintiffs and
respondents, VS.. Fidelity and Cas-
ualty Company, defendant and appel
liant. Claus Edward Nelson, inter
bener, respondent.
l. The Fidelity and Casualty Com
pany of New York issued an employers S
liability policy to the Anoka Lumber
Company containing this clause: 1.-The
assured upon the occurrence of an ac-
cident, and upon the notice of any
claim on account of an accident, shall
such accident or claim with the full
est information available, to the COM
pany at its office in New York city,
or to the agent, if any, who shall have
countersigned this policy"
Held, that the assured need not give
such notice until an accident hap
pens and a notice of claim is made
on account thereof.
2. The above described policy also
contained several provisions relating
to it's liability, among others:
l. That it insured against all liza
bility on account of fatal or non-fatal
injuries suffered by an employe.
z. That the company at its own eX-
pense would take upon itself the set
tlement Of any loss and the control Of
any legal proceedings taken against
the assured to enforce a claim for in
juries to the assured employees.
3. That the assured should not set
tie with the injured employe without
the consent of the insurance company.
4. That no action should lie brought
against the insurance company after
the period in which an action might be
brought by the employe against the
employer, unless at such period there
was suit pending for such purpose,
h1.o,yalRf in which j., case an acti9n might be
volved in such suit against the COM
pany by the assured within thirty
days after judgment is rendered in
such suit apQ not later.
Held, that this policy by the terms Of
one of indemnity against any act of
the employe, but that in case of an
accident to him whereby he had O.
cause of action against the assured
the company would assume and pay
the liability.

while so employed, sustained an in

therefore against the assured employer

action against it without the employer
having first paid the judgment.
8. An employe was personally In

ployer's liability policy, and before the
employe commenced an action against
the employer to recover damages for
such personal injuries, the employer

crat. An English nobility had its origin III
murder and pillage of the defenceless. Are
the people of the North so we'll educated, so
noble and SO free as to eventually sphrn a class
whose only recommendation is getting money,
and contemptuously tralnple in the dust their
pretentions? or will they, as have so many of
their fellows lick the hand that snites them,
bow to the conditions that destroy them? We
shall see what we shall see; but if American
civilization passes away, and our people drop
down to even the level of England or Germany
we think that the Lord might as well repent
that He made man, as He did at the wicked
ness of the people before Noall's flood.
As things are drifting now, we can no more
escape passing under the dominion of the
moneyed class than we could escape Kansas
blizzard on the open prairie. If there was no
power accompanying the possession of vast
wealth. we would not waste pencil in writing
or minute i'll setting type.
Living in republic is not all of being free
Having schools and attending them is not all

you prefer is not all of rule or government.

1t is fact beyond controversy that combined

Blindly we drift on fordy imagining that

bosses, and sanction all they do, right wrong.

"COINN HARVEY'S NEW PARTY

CHICAGO, Dec I5.-W. H. Harvey, the or
acle of free silver, who is better known as
"Coin, to-day aunced his new political party.
According to the press notice which Mr.. Har
vey gave out, it is to be known as "Patriots of
America.o Its especial mission is to advance
the cause of free silver, as well as to eliminate
selhshness from politics, and it is expected to
rapidly overcome all existing political parties.
The national officers are: w. H. Harvey,
first national patriot; Charles H. Mcclure ma
tional recorder, and James f. Adams, national
treasurer. Mr.. Harvey was first elected head
of the order, and he then appointed Messrs.
Adams and Mcclure, and the organization was
declared complete.
No salary attaches to any of the offices eX-
cept that of national recorder and Mr. Nc
Clure announces he will not accept this. On
the first Tuesday of next April, however, when
the organization is expected to be in good
working ORDER an election will be held, and
new set Of officers chosen or the present set
reelected. The constitution expressly pro-
provides no national officer can accept any
elective or appointive Office, nor can he acquire
prlVate property 10 excess oI 100000.
A side order, called Daughters of the Re-
public, is also to be started. Its membership
will be confined to the gentler sex, and the
head of it will carry the proud title of the first

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.


The poet says that "vice, when first seen, is
hideous."
A moneyed aristocracy in America is, to
most people, repulsive, but there may come a
time when the proud, free American will crawl
on his belly in his servility to money or the
moneyed class. Instances of the servility of
the masses, in history, are not rare. A part OF
the people of the United States afford one such
instance.
Out of eight million whites in the seeding
states of the rebellion, there were only 100000
shareholders, yet the slave-holding class held
securely within their grasp the destinies of all
the people, both white and black. The poor
whites were as surely enthralled i'll the ineshes
of poverty, ignorance and servility were the
blacks in the tolls of absolute servitude. There
existed slavery in two forms, and the Northern
traveller generally remarked that the condition
of the ''po' white trash" was less tolerable
than that of the black slave. The STAKEHOLDER
voted the white man, and counted the negro IN
on basis of representation III congress- The
negro had daily ration, steady employment,
the whip, and when occasion offered induce
ments, all family ties were sundered. The
"whte trash" from his retreat amid the hills
and mountains Of the South, was not separated
from his family but his means Of existence
were limited to fish, game and the proceeds of
pilfering torays, undertaken at odd spells, when
his larder ran low or his appetite called for
change Few white men of the non-slave
holding class could rise in the Southern states,
either to wealth or position. An untitled no.
bility held undisputed sway in every Southern
state, up to the war, and when the war came,
the absolute devotion of the mass of white
people was shown in the fact that the "whtc
trash" poured out their blood as water to per-
petuate systems and conditions entirely inlm-
ical to their best interests Yet, the Carolinas,
Georgia, Tennessee and Kentucky were colo
nized by as grand men and women as were the
.tPlerim fathersn--and mothers. The condi-
tions that prevailed in the South prior to the
war resemble in some degree, conditions that
now prevail in the North. Poverty is becom-
ing more and more barrier to success, espec-
tally in politics.
Congress, in both houses, has many million
aires, and the number steadily increases. John
Sherman's book goes to show that presidential
nominations in the Republican party are bought
The corrupt combinations are learning. 1t is
easier to elect one of their own class than to
buy man of another class.
In the metropolitan papers there is con-
slant dripple, eulogistic of the rich and reg
ular record of their doings. Queen Victoria
and her family receive less notice in English
papers than the Vanderbts, Astors, Goulds
and Rockafelle-s in American papers. Plain
ly, the design is to create sentiment of respect
or veneraton for the robbers of modern times.
BY slow degrees, the STAKEHOLDER Of the
South was elevated to the pinnacle of an auto

ON THE THRESHOLD OF THE YEAR.

On the threshold of the year,
The bright new year,
Stand we at the open door,
Wondering what there is i'll store.
Long the untrod walks before
Through the mazes of the year.
A hearty welcome to the year,
The bright new year,
May the link snapped in the chain,
Added by your coming reign,
Shine beyond the power of stain
Through the mazes of the year.
With our welcome to the year,
The bright new year,
Let us not forget the old
With it's blessings manifold,
AS we lingeringly unclasp
From old '95 our clasp.
