The question as to the proper dispo-
sltion of the money and checks deposit
ed IN the Germania bank was argued
before Judge Bum at his chambers
yesterday afternoon. All the evidence
having been submitted the day before
the time from 2 to .. NJ, was entirely
devoted to the arguments of o. E. Hol-
man, the attorney for Peter Kerst the
assignee and Attorney Palmer. who
represents Fred Zimmerman, the st.
Paul Book and Stationery company
and the st. Paul Rubber company. all
of whom made deposits in the Germania
bank on Jan. 2, 1897.
Attorney Palmer, who was heard
first, contended that inasmuch as it
was conceded that the Germania bank
was insolvent Jan. 2, that the money
Of deposftcrs was fraudulently received
that day, and that the title to the
money could not therefore pass from
the depositor to the bank. Mr.. Palmer
argued that the relationship Of debtor
was not established between the bank
and the depositor, and that the latter
had perfect right tc rescind his con-
tract with the bank and get back his
deposit of Jan. 2. If the bank had
enough money On hand to pay the de-
posts of that day, nc harm could be
dCne by its returning the deposits made
on that day. If the money was there
the mere fact that the depcsitors could
not show that the bank did not paw
That particular money out, constituted
no defense on the part of the bank.
1t was presumed, continued Mr.. Pal
mer, that if the bank paid out any
money on Jan. 2, that it paid out it's
own money; money that it had right
fully and lawfully received, not the
money Illegally received, the title to
which was still vested in the deposi-
tors.
Mr.. Palmer contended that the money
deposited Jan. 2 had not lost it's iden-
tity. He maintained that if the bank
had actually paid out all but 81 600
on Jan. 2, the depcSitors of that dav
| would be entitled to pro ratio. share of
| the $1,000. In short, Mr.. Palmer decIar-
| ed that the moneys deposited on Jan.
were held by the bank as a trust
! fund alone. and that no relation of
| debtor and creditor existed

based on a careful revaluation of all
the assets of the bank turned over to
the assignee Jan. 4, 1897, the day when
the bank made its assignment. The
schedules contain the names of all the
creditors Of the bank, in number about
3,700; also an itemized list of all the
parties indebted to the bank and the
amount Of the Indebtedness in each
case; also an itemized hist of the real
estate owned by the bank and the val
uatiOn of each tract; also a statement
of the amounts deposited by the Ger
mania bank with it's correspondents
and other banks, and the cash assets
On hand at the time Of the assignment.
The schedules appear to be very full
and complete and to show in detail the
exact condition of the bank. The total
good assets are given as amounting to
the sum of $1,045, 404 IA, and the total
liabilities are given at the sum of
81 ,044 1901. The schedules also con-
tain a list Of assets which are classed
as doubtful, and which amount to the
sum Of 1887, 491.78. 1t is hoped that
fair per cent Of these doubtful assets
will turn out to be good.
The schedules, which have been made
out regardless of the valuation of the
assets shown by the books Of the bank,
show that the good assets are about
equal to the total liabilities. On the
day Of the assignment the total over
drafts amounted to the sum of 1913. 10.
and these have since been reduced to
the extent of $400. The bills redis-
counted at the time of the assignment
amounted to the sum of $74500. These
have been reduced by payments made
By the assignee and otherwise so that
they now amount to the sum of SIG, 000
The assignee now has on hand in
actual cash the sum of $S1, 800 This
IS the amount left in his hands after
the payment Of some portion Of the
bills rediscounted. --. .--- 7.~ --'f
The schedules also show that Mr..
kerst, the assignee of the bank, is not
Indebted to it either directly or indi-
rectly in any sum whatever

STAG AS BALLAST.

Engineer NJ. of W. Lee, of the B. &

been experimenting during the past
year or two with Stag for ballast. His
plan is to put about one foot under the
ties and it makes very good ballast
About eighteen miles Of the Akron di-
vision have been improved in this
way, but Mr. Lees preference is for
gravel when he can get it. During
the past season on the Trans-Ohio
division he has put in 143 miles of
new ballast, the principal part of
which was good, clean gravel. In adj
dition to the ballasting, the Trans-Ohio
division has had460,9S1 new cross ties,
and there have been 81 miles of new
75-pound steel rail laid, replacing Co
