GILBERT
BROTHERS
SUSPENSION
Adjudged Bankrupt, But Or
der Revoked for Another
Answer.
Their Lawyers Must Now
Prove Their SOlvency in
Order to Escape Bankrupt
cy Proceedings.

Before Judge Bellinger in the U. S.
District Court Thursday in Gilbert Bros.
bank suspension, II. j. Bigger appeared
for petitions in bankruptcy proceedings.
Mr.. Brown OF Brown, Wrightmsn and
Myers appeared for A. T. Gilbert and
bad filed an amended plea in abatement,
wherein A. T. Gilbert alleged that two
OF the original petitioners tor bank.
ruptcy were disqualified for the reason
that they had received payments on
their claim within four months. He
had also by his attorneys fled two
motions, one to dismiss the petition OF
Lou Jim, for the reason that the original
petitioners we're not entitled to maintain
their petition, for the reason that they
had received preferences within four
months, The other motion was to dis
miss the petition and amended petition
for the same reason. F. N. Gilbert, by
his attorneys Cake & Cake, had also
fled motion to dismiss amended petit
ton, for the reason that it set out new
and additional acts of bankruptcy not
contained in the original petition.
The case came up for argument on the
plea in abatement and these various
motions. After hearing counsel on plea
and motions of A. T. Gilbert, the court
held plea not good for reason that 1t did
not state that at the time of said pay
ments the respondents we're insolvent.
The plea WAS not complete and constitu-
ted no defense.
Judge Bellinger said it all depended
on circumstances whether such a
payment within four months would be
preference. The respondents being
insolvent, il a creditor was paid certain
amounts in running account with the
bank, and depositing in said bank at
the same time and adding 10 their
assets, there was a question whether the
creditor could not prove his balance.
Thereupon the court said an order
might be entered adjudicating the res
pondents bankrupt. Mr.. Brown asked
time to file. an answer to the petition.
Mr.. Cake appeared for F. N. Gilbert,
who had never 6led an answer, but oRl y
the motion mentioned above, aud pro-
tested against being adjudged bankrupt
until that motion was disposed Of.
Thereupon the Cake motion was taken
up, argued and overruled, and upon re-
quest Of Mr.. Cake, f. N. Gilbert was
given ten days to file an answer.
Mr.. Brown renewed his request to be
permitted TO file an answer for A. I.
Gilbert, urging that no delay could be
caused thereby, whereupon the court re-
voked the order adjudging Gilbert Bros.
bankrupt and granted him 10 days
leave TO file an answer.
The Telegram reporter left the court
after Bellinger's order was first made,
and so did not get the final proceedings
as above set forth. The answer in 10
days must be to the merits OF the case,
as the court intimated that do more dill
atory pleas would be permitted.

OPENING
And Hundreds of People Are
Pleased.
Capital Store Thrown Open
TO the Salem Public.
Gesner'S Orchestra Delights
the Crowds With Music

The importaut event of today in Sa
lem is the opening OF large new busi
ness house In our midst, the D. H.
Stockton dry goods and furnishing es-
tabl,shment. TO be known as tne Capita
Store. Il is in the building recently oc'
cupied by T. Holverson, two doors south
Of the postofiice. Here large stock Of
goods has been opened. and the place
this afternoon has been thronged with
visitors, inspecting theldisplays in this
place that has always been popular
trading point in the Capital City. Mr..
Stockton does not come TO our city a
stranger, as he has for many years re-
sided in Polk county.
Mr.. Stockton is q native OF Pennsyl-
vania, whence he entered the Union artny
as Young man of II years. He has been
in the west for the past 1S years, having
conducted a mercantile business in
Washington, and for the past 10 years
at Independence. In that city he built up
the largest mercantile business ever con.
Quoted there, and enjoyed the confidence
of everybody in the county as well as
the city. He was elected mayor OF
Independence, which place he filed
with credit, saving the tax payers con-
siderable by money the application OF
business principles such as have made
success of his private affairs. Mayor
Stockton has resigned his position since
deciding to come to Salem, and left that
city with the best wishes Of the entire
community for himself and family. They
decided TO come to Salem for educa tional
advantages, and no doubt with the hope
Of business expansion. They are com
fortably domiciled in the DR..
Rowland residence on Court street,
where they will be pleased to see their
friends.
Mr.. Stockton is a member Of the Ma
sonic and Knights Pythias fraternities,
as we'll as the 6. A. r., but is not the
kind Of a man to make his personal al
fairs public. He is competent judge
OF goods,a close buyer, and hopesst gain
q good trade in Salem by the methods
which brought him a large business in
Independence. He hopes TO hold some
of his old trade, and invites the patron
age Of the people of Msrion county as
well, all OF whom will be treated with
the utmost cordiality and best business
methods. 1t is Mr.. Stockton's purpose
to do strictly cash business, thereby
giving the public the benefit OF close
prices, and to confine himself strictly to
the mercantile business, as he always
has in the past.
Mr.. Stockton has secured the services
OF G. w. Hollister, late OF the Olda q
King store in Portland, and formerly
with Coulter Bros, at Los Angeles, also
of Mr.. o. @. Locke who will have charge
0f the shoe department, r. Lee, Will
Young, and by his dauhgtsr Mrs. Gull
bertson. More help will be employed ns
the needs of the business demand.
Gesner's orchestra has furnished music
all the afternoon, to delight OF large
number OF visitors, including the leading
families of the city, aud the same will be
this evening, as the store will
be kopt open late to accommodate all
cal ors.

ruptcy. The Gilberts had protested
against the petition OF certain OF the
creditors, but the court remarked that
no reason appeared why the petition
should not be granted.
The petition was hled some time ago
in the Federal Court in behalf OF Ida
Muths, A. $. Eppley and William lwans,
il being alleged that Gilbert Bros. were
indebted 10 various parties in the sum
OF $3.50, 900; that they had committed
acts OF bankruptcy by turning over their
property 10 certain OF their creditors,
and in further appointment OF Claud
Catch as receiver. Ida Muths 10 a de-
positor 10 the sum of tl2l3, William
Iwans $3.50 and A. y. Eppley s585. IL
was further contended in their behalf
that some OF the creditors would be
preferred above others, unless the
matter was taken into the bankruptcy
court.
By this order Of Judge BeIlinger, II Is
likely that the receiver will be removed
and the property be turned over 10 a
trustee 20 be appointed by the court,
which will give all creditors an equal
share Of the money remaining.

TWO LOANS
ARE HELD UP
Mayor Fahey Signs Ordinance for
S5o,ooo Loan.

Law Committee Reports Progress on
Ordinances Providing for Loans

The Law Committee of City Council
20 whom had been referred three orii-
nances authorizing loans, presented Il
report at the meeting of Council last
night.

siess was reported on the ordinance
providing for a loan of $25,O0O for park
purposes and $25,000 for the Street and
sewer Department.
The coinmittee's action created some
surprise as it was thought that they
would favorably report all three ordi-
nances as it is considered that they, We're
III drawn strictly according to law and
he committee is supposed to merely
pass on the question of their legality.
The Law Committee is composed Of
,,Iessrs. Oberly, Johnston, Mousley,
dealy and Fisher
1t is reported that certain members
Of Council are not favorable to passing
the park loan ordinance at present, as
he act of the Legislature granting the
oan is not mandatory on Council.
The ordinance authorizing the loan of
$4,000 for Council was passed finally.
Fifteen hundred and fifty dollars of
his amount will be used in paying off
