New Commercial Club Start in With a Very
Social Feature

The new Commercial club had a de-
lightful time last night at their palatial
quarters in the Levy building. 1t was
the first function of the new organiZa-
ton. At the organization of the club
few Of the new members withdrew be
cause Of the sentiment 10 maintain the
social features. The new members, how
ever, were given high honors. in merg-
ing with the Coronado club, as nine OF
the twelve directors were taken from the
gentlemen who proposed the change.
The best of good feeling prevailed and
most delightful time was spent. The
social feature was pronounced by all
TO be a grand success and consisted of
an elaborate clam bake and oyster sup
per. Some fifty or sixty OF the proIni-
nent business men OF the city Were pres
ent and discussed oysters and business
until midnight. In the meantime some
capital jokes Were cracked and Wit and
humor Sparkled around the festive
board.
As near as a reporter for the Eagle
could enumerate the goods things they
consisted of blue points in The shell,
baked clans. clam chOwder, cavier and
crackers, celery, cake and Stewed on
ions. When the members and visitors
wearied Of eating al one table they went
TO another and stu another and after
that they played billiards or whist IN
Ill their appetite returned for fresh de-
scent after the slippery and lucioUs bi-
valve.
Those who were present were 70 b
enviVed and those who were absent
missed a rare treat.
There were a dozen visitors present
but possibly the one in whom the most
interest was conferred was Colonel
Bachilder Of Keene, New Hampshire,
who practically the owner Of the N8ch-
tia electric street car system and has
connection with great many other 10
cal Interests. Mr. Bachelor is a host n

iousiy, to Him. at Least

An-This Will Eject Large Number
of Cases In Which Motions Have Been
IiIed-Decision Was Rendered Immed-
lately After the Arguments CIosed-A
Great Deal of Interest Taken in Case.
Yesterday morning Judge Dale rem
| dered his decision in the case Of Van
Wagenan VS.. JOcelyn, ct al, and over
ruled the motion TO modify the order
of confirmation made in the case. While
this decision was made directly in this
case yet II viii have the effect 10 over
rule all motions Of similar nature fled
in large number of other cases.
When the court opened the argument
was continued by c. H. Brooks, who
contended that the orders of confirna-
ton could NOT be modified by this court.
He reviewed thoroughly the cases cited
by the opposition on the day before.
pointing out the circumstances in each
case which rendered them Of but little
value in the determine ton of the issues
Before the count. He also cited new
authorities to sustain his and his col
leagues position and answered his op-
ponerts arguments so well that the
judge remarked that he would then
listen 10 the closing argument.
Judge Ruggles arose and spoke for
half an hour in closing and repeated
with emphasis his remarks of the pre-
ceding day, together with much new
matter.
The main point of discussion was the
construction of a section of our statutes
relating to the power Of judges TO re-
verse, Vacate or modify orders made by
them. Throughout the arguments il
WAS clearly apparent that Judge Dale
had thorough understanding of the
Jaw Of the case and his decision rem
dered in so short time was commend
cd by the bar as being a sound one.
Immediately at the close of Judge
RuggleS' speech Judge Dale announced
that me would decide the case as il was
clear to him what was the law of the
case and in his decision he said that he
would overrule the motion and all 9th
er of a like nature. He declared that
under the statutes il was not within
his power 10 modify those judgments
and orders made at previous terms and
that the parties did not proceed in the
proper manner TO have them so chang
ed. In closing he said that the right, if
any existed, could be brought out on an
appeal to the supreme court.
This decision will undoubtedly be
used IN the arguments OF like motions
throughout the state, and viii be recog-
niZed as sound law. Had the ruling
been different the utmost confusion
would have resulted. and parties who
have had Sheriff'S deeds to property for
months, and in some cases for several
years. would have had 10 relinquish
control of their property and allow the
mOrtgagors the eighteen months to re-
deem as provided for in the law of 1893.
In other cases valuable property had
been bought for mere nominal sum,
and could have been redeemed for the
amount bid thereby getting out of a
large Indebtedness and control of the
property at the same time.
The balance of the day was spent in
arguing motions differing in some par
ticulars from the one decided but which
will be governed by that case.
Probably no case has created so
much comment and interest in the last
few years as has this case and the

to the court OF appeals which affirmed
the ruling of the lower court They
then took it to the circuit court of the
United States, and was remanded 10 the
court Of appeals. This was done the
second time with the same result.
Judge Greene of Denver has devoted
the last ten years of his life 10 this case
and the final result is OF more import
ance 10 him than any of the attorneys
