Hutch Gets What is Due.

Last week Thurston Hutc hins
showed US letter from his partner
at Boise, c. W. Moore, saying that
the United States Circuit Court of
Appeals had affirmed the decision
OF the lower court in their case
against the Union National Bank
of Omaha, and that they would re-
ceive their dues in very short time
the principle and interest now
amounting to ST., 900.
Mr.. Hutchins has kindly fur
nished us with the following de-
tails Of this case, which is Of vast
import to stock shippers: On the
20th of July, 1895, Moore & Hutch
ms shipped 16 carloads of cattle to
the stock yards at South Omaha,
Mr.. Hutchins accompanying the
shipment. The cattle arrived at
the yards August 1, and owing to a
rule existing there, could not be
sold or offered for sale except
through one of the commission
houses doing business at the yards.
Accordingly, Mr.. Hutchins turned
the cattle over to the Waggoner-
Birney company. The cattle were
sold on the day of their arrival, and
at 4:30 the proceeds were deposited
by the commission company in the
Union Stock Yards National Bank.
The next day the commission COM
pany drew its check for 11,773.03,
the proceeds of the sale, less COM
mission, yardage and freight, but
the bank refused to pay. alleging
that it had appropriated the amount
of the deposit made the evening be-
fore by the company TO liquidate
certain debts due from the company
to the bank. Moore & Hutchins
brought suit agai INST the bank for
the amount due them. The case
was tried in circuit court and the
court held that the bank, receiving
the money knowing it was the prop
erty of Moore d Hutchins, simply
held it in trust for them, and that
they were entitled to recover it, with
interest, freight charges, cost of suit,
etc. Judgment was given them for
the amount found to be due them,
and from this judgment the bank
appealed to the United States cir
cult court of appeals (the last re-
sort) before which the case was ar
gued on the 10th of last month at
Keokuk, Iowa, and again decided
in their favor, and Hutch now wears
very broad smile.
