BANKERS UNION LOSES.
Must Pay National Aid Death
Claims.

The case of o. A. Kirkendall against the
Bankers Union of the World was decided
by Judge Hazen this morning in favor Of
Kirkendan. who sued for $500 on insur-
ance-
The Ban1ers' Union swallowed up the
National Aid as Judge Hazen termed it,
and then refused to pay the death claims
against the National Aid on the plea that
the Bankers Union had no right to act
as they did Ia delivering his opinion,
Judge Hazen said:
1T seems that the Bankers Union and
the National Aid entered into an agree
ment by which the Bankers Union was
to swallow up the National Aid, just like
some political parties swallow up each
other. The officers Of the National Aid
resigned and the Bankers Union elected
officers in that order to carry out their
purpose The mem bership of about 400
was transferred from the National Aid to
the Bankers Union and all property and
funds were turned over. An agreement
was made by the Bankers Union that all
death claims would be paid that We're held
against the National Aid Now the Bank
ers Union claims that it IS not responsible
for the liabilities it assumed, as it had
no right to assume them The Bankers
Union got all the National Aid had and
now the Bankers Union ought to be re-
qUired to pay these claims"
There are several other claims of the
same kind against the Bankers Union.

MRS. SELLS DIAMONDS.
Judge Hazen Refuses to Give
Them Back to Foster Son.

judge Hazen commented this morning
On the motion in the two cases brought
by William Sells against 2. I. Bone
brake, the executor of the estate OF
Mrs Sarah a. Sells.
In speaking of the cases from the
bench Judge Hazen said. THE first Of
these two cases is in the nature Of a
repleVin suit for diamonds The de-
PENDANT has demurred to the petition
The plaintiff claims that in 1863 his own
mother delivered him into the keeping
of Sarah and Allen Sells. They raised
him as their own child In 1886 believ-
ing Sarah Sells to be his own mother he
made her valuable presents of dia-
mOnds. He claims that she withheld
from him the fact that she not his nat
tural mother. She died in 1901. This
suit is to recover the diamonds. The
question is do the facts constitute a
cause Of action. Unless fraud is shown
there can be no recovery. The diamonds
were hers unless the plaintiff can prove
fraud. Was it the duty of Mrs. Sells to
advise William Sells that he was not
her natural child. There was no duty
except to withhold from him that fact
The law places the legal age at II
years for the purpose of allowing the
money earned by the minor to cOmpen-
safe the parents for keeping him We all
know that such money does not COM
pensate. Gifts made during the minor
ity belong TO the parents. 1t seems in
upon the proposition that there was no
fraud.
"In the second case to recover $4,000
for money received by Mrs. Sells as
wages he earned during his minority
The viii made by Mrs. Sells has nothing
to DO with the case. The hardships all
legged have nothing to do with the case.
The only question is. how much money
which belonged to him went into her
hands" Judge Hazen then announced
that certain parts of the petition would
be stricken out. according to the mo-
ton to strike out, and that he would
hear the attorneys arguments later
