WILSON VS.. SULLIVAN.
Supreme Court Afir1ns the JUDGMENT
of Trial Court.


The supreme court handed down an
opinion in the case of R. G. Wilson vs.
John F. Sullivan, appellant, affirming
the judgment Of the lower court. EXCEPT
as regards 1915 enormously allowed as
interest.
The facts appeared to be that on Aug
20 1896, Schriver & Co. of Eureka
made an assignment for the benefit of
their creditors to r. G. Wilson. who
took possession Of the property and en-
tered upon his duties as assignee. At
Ter Wilson had taken possession of the
property Sullivan, as sheriff of Juab
county, broke into the store and levied
writ of attachment issued in the case
of Parsons VS.. Schrixer. &. Co. The writ
of attachment was afterwards dissolved
by the court as having been improperly
issued, notwithstanding which the sher-
in levied an execution and sold the
greater part of the goods to satisfy the
execution, amounting. to. So, PIP IS. 1t
was alleged in the complaint that while
the sheriff held possession of the goods
they were damaged to the extent of
$1,000, and books of accounts were with
held from the. aSsign so that he could
not make collections, and he claimed a
total damage of $4,000, and recovered a
verdict and judgment for s4.7I312
which is now affirmed, with the excep-
ton stated. The opinion was written
by Justice Miner, and concurred in by
Chief Justice Zane and Justice Bartch.

There was a sprinkling of other guests

1t is an interesting fact that two of
the pontoon trains which were of such
valuable service during the civil war
are in good condition and will probably
be-taken to Cuba to be used again by
the army.
The average pontoon train Consists
of from 90 to 80 sections. Two trains
usually accompany an army-a light
one. with canvas-covered boats that
can be moved rapidly, carried by the
advance guard, and a reserve, which

they went out on the bridge. No or

to be sent across, so we had to go over
in pontoon boats and dislodge the
sharpshooters. Our corps took 126 men;
we completed the bridge before Cap
tain Cross men were nearly over, and
in an hour after that the whole army
crossed the river.

sion is made for a hanging support in
the center. The ropes that hold these
spars have to be bound and tied with
special skill, as the entire central
weight on the bridge is held by them.
At the lower end of this support, and
at the same height on the main up
right, the three beams are secured, on
which a solid flooring as is used in the
pontoon bridges is laid. Properly built,
these bridges will sustain an enormous

two to four hours.

be kept busy in laying corduroy roads

chorages are frequently built in the
water and the bridge laid across them.
The pile system of bridging IS slow,
but permanent. The spar or trestle
(see illustration) is the most suitable
for crossing deep ravines. The timber
is usually cut nearby, and squads OF
men join long pieces together with
ropes that are drawn around and ted

the four main supports are first lashed
together at one end; they are rested on
solid ground on either side, and, by
means of ropes, are raised to an up
right position and held in place by
long ropes. The second two supports
are raised in the same manner, suit
able distance away, and also held in
position by ropes. The four supports
are braced together by cross-beams,
which are dashed to them, men having
to climb to the top, hoist and secure
