Caldwell and Stevens and N.
R. Frazier viii
SUBMIT ALL THE FACTS
To Judge Dale for Settlement
of City Mills Matter.

The difference between n. r. Frazier Of
FL Dorado. owner Of the old city Roller
Mill which was burned two weeks ago.
and Caldwell G. Stevens, who operated the
elevator. are to be settled by Judge Dale
of the district court upon an agreed state
ment of facts to be submitted some time
stood now that neither the mill nor the
elevator will be rebuilt, but that Cald-
well & Stevens claim the purchase right
on the property by virtue Of an option
which they secured from Mr.. Frazier
August /, 1898. This option. 1t is said
was to remain in force on building and
grain for one year, or until August I,
1899, provided Caldwell & Stevens paid the
rental installments amounting TO $1,000 for
the year and coming due in five payments
of 500 each. The option purchase price
to be agreed upon was $4,000. There was
&, 500 insurance on the mill building, 81 90
on the elevator improvements, put there
by Caldwell & Stevens and $1,000 on the
wheat, which had been bought by Cald-
well & Stevens and stored In the build
ing. The $500 put upon the mill and all
old adjoining structures will go TO the
purchasers, Messrs. Caldwell and Stevens
If they get possession by right Of the op-
ton. This would make the net cost of the
entire property to them $500. It is under
stood that Mr.. Frazier claims that the op-
lion expired with the fire which destroyed
the buildings, the purchase not being COM
pleted nor even agreed upon in any
specific terms. But II is understood also
that Caldwell & Stevens offered payment
of a 500 dollar rental installment which
has become due since the fire and that
this payment has been received and &C
cepted by Mr.. Frazier. 1t is contended
by Caldwell & Stevens now since the ac-
ceptance Of rent money by Mr. Frazier on
Friday that the payment and acceptance
of rent keeps the option alive II there
were any questions or any decision TO re-
cede from the agreement of a year ago
by Mr. Frazier. However. this IS all to
be settled in court and the matter will
come up with full facts before Judge Dale
IN a short time.
