An Interesting Case.

The most important case that has
been to the Court Of Appeals of West
Virginia at its present sitting is the
Building and Loan" case from Wood
county. The decision Of tue tts siiss
means much to foreign building and
loan associations who are doing bust.
ness in that stale. Upon the decision
of the case depends the future continu'
ance OF the large increasing business of
these outside companies, who loan hun
dreds of thousands of dollars in West
Virginia upon real estate, securing the
debts by first mortgage liens.
The case referred to is 80 styled: Ell

Building and Loan Association loaned
her $4,000, taking deed Of trust as
security.
The loan was made under the usual
conditions and rules of loan associations.
The trust provided that the debt be
paid by monthly installments, with
certain fees, dues and interest, amount.
ing, the plaintiff says, to high and
exorbitant rate of interest. The
plaintiff acknowledges the debt and
does not deny having paid these dues
for time as they fell due. The plea
of the plaintiff is that the defendant
has charged her more interest, dues and
premiums than is legal under West
Virginia Jaws. and denies that the de.
PENDANT has right to charge more than
6 per cent. interest on said loan. In
brief, the defendant pleads ursury, and
this is the question to be decided by the
judges now sitting. 1t appears that
after having paid number of the dues
when they fell due monthly, the plain.
tiff suddenly ceased to meet the dues
and positively refused to do so. 1t
was then the association proceeded to
foreclose the mortgage under the pro-
visions and conditions of the trust.
The plaintiff applied to the judge of
the Circuit Court of Wood county for
an injunction to prevent the sale of the
property in controversy, and Judge
Boarman. after considering the merits
of the case, made the injunction per.
maneut. It is from this decision that

the appeal is taken to the Court Of
Appeals.
The defendant holds that the debt
should be liquidated as the conditions
of the trust and agreement provide,
because the trust was executed in good
faith by the plaintiff and implies a
specific contract between the parties,
whereby the dues and premiums to be
paid monthly are not interest in the
actual sense.

SOLDIER TRIED TO SUICIDE.
Result of Fever-Tbe Sick
Taken Ashore.

NEW YORK, Aug. g9.-Sixty of the
worst cases of sick soldiers were re.
moved from the transport San Marcos
yesterday morning, which had arrived
from the south.
Nearly all the men are convalescents
from the general army hospitals at Key
West and Tampa. The men taken off
were distributed as follows:
Ten to the New York hospital, one to
Governors island and the remainder
to Fort Hamilton and Fort Wadsworth.
Very few of the men were able to walk.
The scene. as the men were led or car
ried down the sea ladder and lifted on
to the General Meigs, was pathetic in
the extreme. The men could not be
transferred on stretchers, and, clad in
pajamas, their emaciated forms were
carried down the plank.
Private Stephen Easton, Troop K,
First volunteer cavalry, was the only
man landed at Governors island, as the
field hospital on the island is crowded.
He is suffering from melancholia, having
lost his voice and hearing as the result
of fever contracted while serving before
Santiago. During the trip to this city
he made attempts to end his life and
had to be guarded.
