CHATTEL MORTGAGES
KnOtty Points of Law Discussed BY
Supreme Court.
VERDICT FOR THE CITY
IN DAMAGE SUIT BROUGHT BY
MoHR TOUSE.
Jury Finds For Plaintiff In Sum of
$3.50 In McLaren VS.. Constable
Gillespie-Suit Of Fitzgerald VS..
Maxfeld On Trial-Short Orders
and Court Notes.

The supreme court yesterday handed
down an opinion affirming the judg-
ment of the lower court in the case
of Julia B. MeKibbon vs. Nat M
Brigham as United States marshal, in
volving a stock of drugs sold by the
latter under execution.
George j. McKibbon was the owner
some years ago of the Park Terrace
Pharmacy, but for convenience sake the
business was conducted by George h.
Wright, who was the accredited owner
so far as the public was concerned. The
Nelden-Judson Drug company, Whlch
sold the pharmacy most of the stock
understood McKibbon was the owner
The latter, however, sold out to Wright
without their knowledge, taking
Wrights note for 500 in payment. Nc
Ribbon subsequently died and the
widow took new note from wright
secured by a chattel mortgage on the
stock for the balance due. This be-
came known to the Nelden-Judson COM
pany who up TO this time had been
selling Wright goods on credit the same
as prior to McKibbon's death, which
was not known TO the company until
the mortgage was recorded. 1t further
appeared that when the mortgage was
given it was mutually agreed that
the mortgaged property and continue
the business undiSturbed.
Upon learning the true status OF
affairs the Nelden-Judson company in
stituted attachment proceedings
against the Park Terrace Pharmacy
and Wright for 1852 due on account,
alleging that the mortgage given by
Wright was made for the purpose of
fraud.
The case was tried some time ago by
Judge Cherry who held that the mortg-
age was void because the mortgagor
was permitted to retain possession of
and sell the goods under an agreement
to account to the MORTGAGE for the
proceeds.
The supreme court in its opinion says
one of the most difficult questions in
the law of chattel mortgages arises
when one is given upon a stock of
goods which by its condition permits
the mortgagor to retain possession and
sell the property mortgaSed, in the
usual course of trade. The authorities
are about equally divided as to its
validity under such circumstances. In
the mortgage at issue the agreement
was verbal, however, and one of the
chief conditions were that it was not
expected the mortgage should be paid
when due but extended from time TO
time, thus forming perpetual hinder
to other creditors. The court, referring
to the matter, says there was no ques-
ton but that the mortgage was made
for the purpose of defrauding creditors.
The opinion was written by Justice
Miner and concurred in by Justices
Zane and Bartch

a secret conference between the en-

Gals ending last night, the latter al
first refused to accede to the demands
that the conductors be restored to

TO call an immediate strike of the con-
ductors and engineers. Another con-
ference was held, the company finally
agreeing to let all but Conductor Knock

NO LONGER A QUESTION.
Settlement of Differential Trouble
Will Have Good Results.

cific railway is not entitled to a differ
entail of 10 or any otherper cent under
the rates made by the United states
lines on freight traffic between points
east Of the Missouri river and San
Francisco was favorably received yes
terday by local traffic officials In the
opinion of Traffic Manager BabcOck of
the Rio Grande Western, the decision
ought to result in putting a stop to the
rate nnanipulations that probably have
been going on in transcontinental trat-
fic in articles of staple tonnage. 1t
means the wiping out of a question That
has been a source OF irritation and
trouble, and it is not improbable that
it will result in a slight reimbursement
of tariffs on transcontinental business.
The decision Will not have any effect
on local freights, except that ii is
hoped the volume of transcontinentaI
traffic over Utah lines viii be increased.
The proposition that foreign line
can force the American roads to charge
higher rates on shorter hauls to ac-
commodate the Canadian Pacific's San
Francisco business. is all wrong, and
Enthusiastically the arhitrators took
this view of the question.

Another Industry Established.

With an enterprise that is character

operations and has just established a
horse collar factory in this city, the
mandatory being located at 121 Sec
ond South West streets. two brothers,
E. W. and r. J. Hurry, st. Joe, Mo-,
experts in this line, being in charge of
the works, it being the expectation that
before the roses bloom again the fac
tory will give steady employment to a
force of at least ten men, the company
is going into this branch of the har-
ness business with the expectation of
supplying the wholesale trade of this
inter mountain business, which field is
already well covered by the establish
ment in other lines.
T. r. Black and Hal w. Brown, the
chief promoters of this enterprise, are
well satisfied with the business they
have succeeded in building up in Salt
Lake, and the addition OF collar fac
tory adds one more industry which is
calculated to promote the advancement
of the interests of this western country,
as this is the only establishment of this
character between the extreme west
