FORECLOSURE PROCEEDINGS.
The Langsdorf Ranch Involved
Geo. H. Matson Receiver-Peter-
son on Trial For Arson.

Alfred Crespin has begun suit against
the Weber County Land and Live
Stock company and ]. NJ. Langsdorf
to recover s23.5OO and for the fore
closure of a mortgage on the Langs-
dorf ranch in Ogden valley. The mort
gage was given for $4,000 in August,
1892, but interest and attorneys fees
bring the sum up to the amount sued
for. The plaintiff asked for the ap-
pointment of a receiver for the proper
ty and George H. Matson was ap-
pointed.
The case of John Peterson. charged
with arson committed at the Reform
school, came up yesterday. John ID
Murphy was appointed to defend him
and he, with w. j. Clark. did so. The
state proposed to show by the strong
est circumstantial evidence that Peter
son arranged the kerosene and ap-
piled the match, and that he after
wards confessed to it; and that other
boys said he did it. One of the boys.
Smytha by name, went clean back on
statements made to the county attor-
ney and stood up for Peterson, saying
nonchalantly that on the former oc-
casion he lied.
Murphy made a vigorous effort to
have the alleged confession of Peter
son ruled out on the ground that he
made it through fear. The prose-
cution rested lasa night.
In the case of Eva Campbell, admin
istratrix etc, VS.. Rio Grande Western
company; by consent costs were taxed
at S269.50 and the defendant was
granted leave to withdraw motion to
retax the costs OF plaintiff.
James Hamilton is suing Gertrude
Hamilton for divorce. alleging deser

The course of the stock market in the
early trading today occasioned no great
surprise 10 the traders. Further de-
cline in consuls and the fact that
American securities were y TO q below
the parity of our closing on yesterday,
naturally led TO the belief that con-
siderable depression would characterize
dealings in the market for securities
here. Bears endeavored to use the for
eign news to their advantage and
prom9tly attacked the list at the
opening, but they met with very poor
success, and after merely fractional
concessions the market started up in
lively fashion. 1t was evident that the
power behind the market was above the
average influence The strength of
the Vanderbilt group also had a reas-
surfing effect especially as a sharp rise
in New York Central was accompanied
by reports that plans are on foot to re-
fund the high interest-bearing bonds

jecting to part with him. While there
they learned that the boy had bee-i
selling newspapers and earning from
81 to $50 per day. with which he man
aged 10 support himself and his sistes.
A short time ago. they found that the
boy had taken a dollar out of the
pocket of the stepfather and they
thereupon had him arrested. The
mother said he admitted stealing the
dollar and claimed he had stolen other
things, of which she had no personal
knowledge.
Judge McCarty in passing upon the
case, reviewed the evidence, and said
that he was decidedly of the opinion
that the evidence was not sufficient to
justify him in sending the boy 10 the
reform school: but on the other hand
he thought that the boy had not been
subjected to very kind treatment at
home, and intimated that the parents
were more at fault than the boy. The
fact that the boy, al the age of years,
had kept himself and his little sister,
showed that he was a lad of consider
able worth and besides that he ap-
peared bright. and had not the look of
a bad boy and he. therefore. refused to
commit the boy to the reform school;
the parents give him a little better
care. and that it would be the act of
q charitable and high-minded person
who would take the boy from the pa
rents, If they wanted to get him off
their hands. and rear him up to be q
useful man in society. 1t is under
stood that there are several people here
of good repute who are willing to take
the lad if the parents will let him go.
