Court Notes.

The day in the district court yesterday
was occupied by Judge Smith in hearing
the evidence and arguments in support of
the motion filed by the Portland Gold Min
ing company to have the appointment of
Ernest Il. Hart as receiver annulled. The
company also made its showing why it was
unable to obey the order of the court to
turn over to the receiver its stock and
transfer books.
The order was made on the application OF
James Doyle in his suit against the Port
land Gold Mining company, brought by him
for the purpose of trying to make his judg-
ment against James Burns, president of the
company, good.
The company contended that as Doyle was
no longer, as it alleged, a stockholder in the
company, he had no claim or interest in
the company's property and therefore was
not entitled to have receiver appointed
Further, the company cOntended that the
fact that Doyle held judgment against
Burns, one of the stockholders, was no
reason why he should be granted the ap-
pointment Of receiver for the company's
books. In support OF its contention, the
company placed on the stand Bookkeeper
Blschoff, who testified that Doyle had sold
the greater part of his holdings in the COM
pany in 1897 and that he had disposed of
his last batch of stock, consisting of SOB
shares. the latter part of April, 1898.
The attorneys for Doyle answered that as
the company was incorporated under the
laws of Iowa governing domestic corpora
tions, 1t was legally bound to keep its office
and stock and transfer books in this state
and the fact that 1t failed to do so was
sufficient grounds in itself for the court
ordering a receiver to take charge OF them.
The hearing was completed just before
court adjourned for the day and Judge Smith
said he would take his decision under ad-
yisement.

Demurrer in Quarantine Case.


The county filed it's demurrer yesterday in
the suit brought by Finance Clerk True on
behalf of the city to enforce the payment by
the Board of Supervisors of the expenses
incurred in maintaining the quarantine in
the recent smallpox cases
The county demurs on the ground that the
charges set forth do not purport to have been
made to provide the alleged patients with
nurses, needful assistance or supplies while
quarantined, which alone the Board or
Health has a right to provide under the
statutes at the expense of the county. Fur
ther that the petition shows upon its face
that the parties alleged to have been careo
for as quarantined patients were cared for
at the houses where they were found ana
not by removal to a separate house or
houses, and that the items charged for In
the petition and for which the city seeks to
recover plainly appear to be for guards and
matters of expense incurred in the enforce
ment of the quarantine regulations, and DO
not purport to be charges in whole or in
Part for care of the patients; and it also ap.
pears from the petition that all of sale
charges are brought against the county be-
cause the Board of Health of Council Bluffs
authorized the expense and regulated the
charges therefor; also that the charges are
matters of expense incurred in the main
tanning of the quarantine regulations which
to the law are to be borne by the subdivisions
of the county in which the case of smallpox
occurred, namely, in this instance, Council
Bluffs. AS to the claim of s64 for maintain
ing the quarantine at the residence of Mrs
Harris at Twenty-third street and Avenue
II, the county demurs on the further grounds
That the petition failed to show or allege
that Mrs. Harris was person who was In
fected with or who had been recently in
fected or sick with smallpox or other dis
ease dangerous to the public health.
