JUDGE DE BOLT SAYS
]. K. SUMNER HAS
BEEN PLUNDERED

pletely ignoring Magoon. He said he
ance, for a man who would sign his
name to a charge involving the assas-
sination of the character of a brother
attorney, and then withdraw it, sc
fend his reputation. He also referred
to Davis as bloodhound on the scent
of money"-"which foul and dirty and
unholy purpose inspired this gentleman
to bring the guardianship proceedings.
He charged also that Davis and Ma
COON had both appeared against Sum-
ner in the guardianship proceedings and
now posed as his friends.
Humphreys said he had heard consid-
cradle criticism about the admission of
attorneys to practice in the district
court but never understood how "a
steam roller" was admitted to practice,
referring also to Davis.
Once when Humphreys spoke of this
man Davis" the attorney objected and
replied by a reference to this ex-in-
peached Judge" Judge De Bolt censur-
ed the attorneys for their use of per
sonaIities and cautioned Magoon and
Davis not to interrupt Mr.. Humphreys.
Towards the close of his argument,
Humphreys sat down and said he would
not finish because of a whispered con-
versation between opposing counsel,
-biob he cbaractarizad &c diSoo,,rtaOI1c
The court said that it was discourteous,
but hardly more than for Humphreys
to leave the courtroom while counsel
We're arguing on the other side. Hum
phreys would not go on, however, and
the argument was closed forthwith.
Judge De Bolt announced, that he
would give his decision Immediately,
that although he might write lengthy
opinion he deemed this unnecessary, as
what was wanted was simply a deci-
sion, and he would not therefore at
tempt to analyze the evidence. Omit
ting the reference to authorities and
quotations from the papers in the case
the courts decision was in substance
as follows:
This is a suit brought by Gulstan
F. Ropert against John K. Sumner,
Victoria Buffandeau, VIM. S. Ellis,
John S. Ellis, Maria S. Davis, R. w.
Davis and Bishop & Co. to terminate
a trust. The petitioner sets forth the
fact of the execution of the trust deed,
and also that he entered upon it's ex-
ecution and performed the duties. He
also sets forth the sale of the property
to the Oahu Railway & Land Co. and
the distribution of the proceeds there
of; also the visit to the Catholic Mis-
sion by John K. Sumner and Mr.. Ma
COON and the payment of $4S,O25 The
Bishop further prays for relief and asks
that his resignation be accepted, which
has already been done. and that he be
released from liability which has also
been done, as it was stipulated that
the $751; ops be taken and accepted by all
parties to be full and correct account
ing of all the money in his hands.
THE answer of John K. Sumner prac-
tically admits all of the allegations in
the complaint excepting paragraph six
which contains the gist of the whole
case. The prayer of John K. Sumner
asks also for affirmative relief and that
the $4S,O25 be paid over to him, also

trial which has been replete with in
tensely sensational episodes, and day
which was marked with the exchange
of bitter personalities by counsel in
the case.
An appeal from the order of the court
was noted by Judge Humphreys on be-
half of the Ellis heirs, but it is claimed
on behalf of Sumner that no appeal
lies from the order, as the niece and
nephews have no interest in the money.
In any event, even though there be an
appeal the Ellises would have to fur
nish bond of at least the amount of
the fund in court, in order to prevent
Sumner from Withdrawing the $4,000.
The remarks of the court anent the
counsel fees struck home, and there was
a hasty disclaimer from all sides of
any wrongful intent, but Judge De
Bolt stood firm, despite Humphreys
bitter assertion that his statement of
facts if true was sufficient for the dis
barment of all the attorneys in the
case Sumner was not visibly affected
by the order of the court which gave
him his own again. He was amused by
the remarks of counsel during the day.
but was worn out and tired by SIX
o'clock,-the hour which was reached
before the conclusion of the case. He
accepted the congratulations of friends
however with a joyful smile and was
evidently much pleased at the outcome
of the suit. He will probably go to Ia
hiti as soon as he comes into actual
possession of the money.
DAVIS AND HUMPHREYS.
Davis and Humphreys did not mince
matters or stop for want of an elegant
word in their references to each other
at the. argument yesterday. Davis
opened and paid more attention to
Humphreys than to the law points in
volved. He charged that the attorneys
on the other side were guilty of con-
spiracy, fraud and blackmail, and not
he, as had been alleged in the answer
of the ElIises. He claimed that the
Ellises had received $4,000 from the old
man, and came into court with dirty
hands and were not entitled to equity.
He argued also that Humphreys had
been attorney for both Sumner and the
Ellises and had no right to appear in
court. why the charge of conspiracy
and blackmail made against me, makes
growing excited. II have been practic-
ing law for twenty-five years and L
haven't got much of these ill-gotten
gains; 1 have no desire to tread the
path of the criminal, conspirator or
Davis created general
laugh during the argument, when on
an interruption by Magoon he referred
to him "as the learned counsel who
erected a pig pen next to my lott
Peters followed Davis, also for Sum
ner, and he confined himself almost al
together to the law points involved
that the trust deed was
revocable. Then Humphreys opened up
his batteries i'll reply to Davis, COM

Omaha daily bee., 1903-05-10

taurants have simply closed their doors
and are waiting for some turn in affairs
which will bring about a settlement Of the
difference. Several of the restaurants have
signed the union scale and entered into a
contract with the walters so that the imme-
date wants of those who live at restau-
rants have been supplied with but little in
convenience. In the wholesale district the
effects of the strike have been felt most Sc
verely owing to the almost impossibility Of
getting goods to and from the warehouses.
Many of the Omaha jobbing houses have
railroad tracks running directly to their
doors, and these Of course are not affected
on their in and out shipments. They are,
however, prevented from delivering goods
to LEGAL customers. Most OF the retail deal
ers had laid in extra stocks OF goods in an
tlcipation of the embargo, and therefore
there has been as yet nc suffering or in
convenience felt on this account. Two Of
the big department. stores have been eff
fectually tied up SO far as the delivery Of
goods is concerned and have been affected
TO this extent only.
The operations in the building line have
been practically at q standstill since the
10th OF March, owing to the strike OF the
nod carriers, which had necessitated the
cessation OF work by the masons. The
carpenters have since then Joined the hod
carriers on the strike and this has put a
stop to work on all the important build

ings OF Omaha. Public attention has prac-
tically abandoned the Union Pacific shop
men who have been on a strike for a little
more than eleven months, but who still
present an unbroken front to the company.
In fact, this Union Pacific strike is re-
markable in a great many ways, but in no
way more so than in the irmness with
which the men have maintained their posi-
tion. So far as is known by the leaders
OF the unions involved in the Union Pacific
shop strike, not one Of their members,
either journeyman or apprentice, has re-
turned to the cOmpany's employ.
The only gratifying feature of the affair
so far has been the excellent order main
tanned, and the men who are on the strike
promise that this order will be maintained
until the affair has been finally settled.
The customary interference Of the federal
court by means of an injunction directed
against the members of one Of the unions
involved was anticipated by the men and
it's effects discounted.
The team drivers union holds the key to
the present situation. BY reason of their
numbers and the absolute necessity for
their employment in the traflc of the city
the team drivers union comes into direct
contact with every phase Of organized
labor with the exception OF the breweries,
where the team drivers are members OF the
brewery workers union. For this reason the
men are more likely to be involved in the
