WAY BUSINESS WAS DONE
PROBING INTO WASHINGTON s. AND L.
ASSOCIATIONS AFFAIRS.
Vice President Hackedorn, Chief Wit
ness i'm the ~Receivership Pro-
ceedings Yesterday.

The suit to have n receiver appointed for
the Washington Savings and Loan Associa-
ton went to trial in the Circuit Court yes
terday. The suit was brought by Lewis
Brandenburg. Arthur C. Given and others,
who charged that prior to March Z. when
the company went into liquidation. its off,
GERS had made heavy loans on property of
little value. and that money had been bor-
rowed on the associations notes to pay
withdrawal claims of the officers and to
cancel their certificates.
Since the association vent into liquida-
ton a new management has taken hold Of
1t, and this management Is made defend
ant to the suit. Its attorneys yesterday
morning filed an answer to the complaint
and also a demurrer. The demurrer set up
the claim that under the law of 1883 it was
the business Of the attorney general to pro-
coed against the company and not the men,
bers- Judge Allen overruled the demurrer.
The answer Of the defendants. which set
up reasons why a receiver should not be APP
pointed, was then taken UP. The plaintiffs
demurred TO the answer. but the court ruled
that II was good after certain amendments
had been made. The case then went to trial
on its merits.
The chief witness examined yesterday was
IL. r. Hackedorn. the vice president and
general manager of the association. He
testified that in January he was elected one
or the directors to succeed the old board
and that he and the other directors each
bought one share of stock. Mr.. Hackedc.n
said that since he had become manager of
the association he had paid certain claims
to members h withdrew from the asso-
citation In order to prevent receivership pro-
ceedings tina; were threatened. He said he
bad paid these claims without reference to
the time OF filing notice of withdrawal. Mr..
Hackedorn said that Miss Florence War
ner, a stenographer i'm the Office of the as
ISOLATION, was the acting secretary and had
given a bond Of 5000. He was unable TO
say whether the bono had been given be-
fore or after the present proceedings were
brought.
The attorneys for the plaintiffs put Jonas
Weist on the stand to prove by him that
Hackedorp had offered John w. Hall. a
former director OF the association, the sum
of $500 II he would arrange IL so that he
tttackedorn) could take the management of
the association. 1t was ayerred that Hacke-
dorm had made this kind OF a statement TO
Weist. The court declined 10 allow the wit
ness examined along this line. The recon-
mendation OF the state auditor that a receiy-
er be appointed for the association was in
troduced as part OF the evidence, but Judge
Allen said the written report of the experts
on the associations financial condition was
not proper evidence. The experts them
selves would have To be called, he said. The
books OF the association will be brought into
court to-day.
