ARGUMENTS BEFORE JUDGE KELLY
ON A DEMURRER In LEWIS
. SUIT.
WANTS THAT $3.50 AGAIN.
-GUsTAvE WtILIUs AND PETER MI.
KERSR,. WHO ARE MADE DE-
ISL PENDANTS.
CLAIM THES BANK WAS SOLVENT.
Plain til fas Attorney Makes a. Pointed
Plea tP hts Arguments in the
ga In Case.

Judge Kelly listened to an interest
ing argument yesterday afternoon on a
demurrer e'.the complaint of Joseph
D. Lewis, whose suit against Gustav
Willius and Peter NJ Kerst, to re-
cover. $3.50 deposited by him in the
Ger1nania, bank on Jan. 2, 1897, has
already been published. The complaint
alleges that Mr.. Lewis deposited in
the Germania bank on the forenoon Of
Saturday, Jan. 2, a check to his order
for $275 against which he at once drew
$25, leaving $3.50 to his credit. The bank
closed it's doors at noon of that day
and has never opened them since The
plaintiff sues Gustav Willius and Peter
NJ. Kerst individually, as president and
cashier of~the Germania bank to re-
cover the $3.50, alleging that the bank
was" 'hopelessly insolvent" when it's
officers received his deposit, that these
officers knew that the bank was in
solvent, and that. they accepted and
received plaintiffs deposit for the
purpose Of defraUding him.
The assignee demurred to the COM
paint and O. p. Holman argued in sup
port of: the demurrer. Mr.. Holman
commended that it was not the duty Of
an officer of a bank to proclaim that
1t was insolvent, as long as any doubt
existed as to such insolvency.. If, how
ever, the bank was ffopeIeSsly insel-
vent, then Of couse, IT was the duty of
the directors of the bank to close 1t as
Soon as they became aware Of its con-
ditfon. Mr. Holman quoted authorities
holding that officers and directors Of a.
bank were not individually liable to a
dcpoSitof for the fraudulent act of the
corporation. .a>t .~t- .eesnt~a .t
In opposition to the demurrer, plain
tiff's COUNSEL called attention to the
allegation Of the complaint that the
bank WAS hopelessly insolvent on Jan.
z, 1881. Counsel declared that the presi-
dent and ga hteF Of the Germania bank
had full charge Of the bank that they
opened it0nY Jan. 2 and took in money
when the bank was to their knowledge,
hCpeless1y insoiVent. Counsel admitted
that an offloarcof bank was not obIig-
ed to proclatm its insolvency from the

SALT RIVER VALLEY.
Many st. Paul Folks Have Made
Homes There.

Mrs Rumney, wife of w. T. Rumney,
formerly a prominent resident of ST.
Paul, who recently moved to Phoenix,
Arizona, to live, is an interesting visi-
tor here this week. Mrs. Rumney says
the radical change from the warm,
sunny days in the sheltered valley in
which Phoenix is situated, to the win
ter winds and snow banks Of Mime
sofa, is more inVigorating than one
would think, and she is enjoying the
winter scenes and the familiar jingle
of the sleigh bells with that same
enthusiasm one would find in a visit
to the South at this time of year.
v.s In conversation with a G / o b rep
resenatiye, Mrs. Rumney said that peo-
pie in the North had an erroneous idea
of the summers in the Salt river valley
and the supposed facilitating effects
consequent upon continuous residence
there during the heated period. Mrs.
Rumney said that people did not suffer
there as much as they do here. The
highest clothes are worn and people
sleep out in the open air and enjoy
life, and remain healthy all summer.
In fact, that is the healthieSt portion
of the year. and the death rate last

able success in orange culture, and the
future Of our little valley is bound to
be great. The quality of the navel
orange produced there is superior to
the California navel and ripens six
weeks earlier, giving the Arizona
orange grower time to get his fruit to
market before his California neighbor
can pick his oranges. There is no boom
in the orange district, but a steady
growth is going on and the small
orange belt will no doubt soon be a
mass of orange trees.

a good representation. Many of them

a 329-pounder, who keeps line on
ball players like some people do on
race horses, was a caller on Capt. Ew-
ing. Mr.. Howell is never without three
or four base ball dope books in his
pocket He can, on a moments no
tice, tell the batting and fielding aver
age OF any major or minor league play
er in America. He has also marginal
notes of their particularly strong and
weak points.
Howell was famous as being one or
the forty-three admissions TO Pitts
burg National League game at Recrea-
ton Park, Pittsburg, in 1890. He says
he put Ed Delehanty, the champion
batter Of the world, in fast company.
At that time Howell was manager o.
the Wheeling team. He tried to IN
ducs Arson to take Del" but the
former would not have him. Then
he got the Philadelphia club 10 sign
him. Just now Mr.. Howell, the man
with the base ball dope book" has
"a large-sized crow TO pick" with Ned
Hanlon, of the Baltimores. Howell
claims that the manager Of the Baltl-
mores has logged" him out of several
hundred dollars. 1t all came through
the engagement Of Catcher Bowerman.
81 recommended BOwerman to Han
lon" said Mr. Howell and he was
to give me $500 if he proved a success.
At the time Bowerman was signed the
player himself said l should have
something for my trouble. He wanted
to give me his first months salary,
but I told him $50 would do. gave
Hanlon the order but he kept 1t and
did not give me cent. He never paid
me anything for securing Bowerman
for the Baltimore club. Now, this IS
what | call very shabby treatment,
and | won't stand for it. | had the
paDers all made out TO tie Hanlon up
in West Virginia the last time he came
through there on his way 10 Cincin-
natl. but | changed my mind. 1t was
pretty tough to hold back what ne
should have given me for my trouble,
butts it's rubbing it in to hold out what
the player gave me an order Ior:
Mr.. Howell told Captain EWING OF
several very high-class players in the
Interstate League. The WheehlS
man is firm believer in the Ioieao
team. 81 don't care if the Pittsburgs
are in the National League, | believe
that the Toledos can beat them. said
Mr.. Howell. 81 am not the only one
that thinks so. The players OF the
Toledo team themselves think they
can play better ball than the Pitts
burgs They put up $500 Of their own
money in my hands that they will
bet against $500 of the Pittsburg play
ers' money. that they could beat them
in a series of seven games. The PITTS
burg players didn't take it up, so II
is quite likely that they think the
same as the Toledo players"
