DID HE PROVE HIS LOSS !!
INTERESTING POINT RAISED IN A
FIRE INSURANCE
CASE
HOW CLAIM SHOULD BE FILLED
Question Is, Is 1t Necessary to
state Amount OF Loss When
Filing Demand for
Insurance..

An interesting question in law was
brought UP before Judge Jaggard in the
district court yesterday afternoon in the
case of Emile De Raiche against the
Liverpool, London & Globe Insurance
company The plaintiff conducted a store
at 2l22 Fourth avenue south, Minneapolis,
upon which he held an insurance policy
for ST, coo in the defendant company. His
store was partially destroyed by fire on
July 50 last and, as he claims, he mott
fled the company of the fact They were,
however, unable to come to an agreement
and De Raiche brought an-actiOn against
the company to collect damages in, the
sum of $1,G00 and interest.
When the case,was being tried yesterday
afternoon. Douglas Fisk, attorney for the
defendant, objected to the plaintiff intro
ducing certain evidence in regard to the
loss on the ground that he had not com
piled with the law in sending in a writ
ten statement of his loss. This brought
up the question as to what is necessary,
under the Minnesota insurance law Of
1885, for the insured to Go, in the matter
of submitting proof of loss. Mr.. Fisk
cOntended that it is necessary for the
insured to state in his proof Of claim,
the amount of his loss, which he claimed
was not done III this case. Attorney
Louis Franl<el, for the plaintiff, however,
claimed that his client had complied
with the law in every way necessary in
filing a proof of claim. Judge Jaggard
took the question under Amusement I'M
til Monday morning.
This is a point that has never before
been decided, and a decision thereon will
be awaited with interest by insurance
companies.

Have Reached Interesting Stage.
The proceedings in the matter of the
bankruptcy petition of Walter e. Snow
are growing more interesting with every
move made 1t will be remembered that
Snow recently filed a petition in bank
ruptcy, alleging that he had no assets,
and was even unable to pay the $50 re-
quired for filing.
At the first hearing before Referee NJ.
Doran Jr., it was disclosed by the cred
itors that the petitioner had short time
previous received the sum of $1,000 from
the estate of his mother. This money
was alleged to have been made over 10
his wife. The disclosure caused the re-
fierce to announce that he intended to
bring the matter to the notice Of the
grand jury, en- the ground that Snow had
wrongfully made the poor mans OATH

Mr. DoTan then issued an order re-
curing Mrs Snow to turn her property
over into the custody of the court
Through her counsel she appeared Thurs
day and questioned the jurisdiction Of the
referee. The lawyer argued that the re-
fierce could not issue a summary order.
as Mrs. Snow was not a party to the
proceedings.
The next step was a declara ton on the
part Of the referee to the effect that he
would certify Mrs. Snow for contempt Of
