Jury Decides Today That the 0rgani-
cation Shall Pay a Tax.
Amount Assessed Is $1.961.68--
Hard Fought Legal Battle.
This Action Was Instituted BY County
Attorney S. B. Wilson.
Defective Memory Causes One Man TO
Get into Trouble.
From Saturdays Daily.


After nearly an all-night session the
jury in the case of the State of Mime,
sofa vs.. the AIankato Savings and Build.
ing association returned verdict il
favor of the plaintiff.
This is the action instituted by County
Attorney Wilson to force the association
tc pay the tax assessed against it. The
amount assessed is $l,96l.6S. The par
ticular question which the jury was call
ed upon to decide was whether ''the
transfer was made to the new organiza-
ton for the purpose of avoiding the pay
ment of taxes"
The name of the new association is the
Alankato Savings and Building associa-
ton was that of the Mankato Mutual
Building and Loan association.
1t was maintained by the defense that
the new association was not response
bic for the taxes assessed against the
old organization.
Prior to the reorganization the asso-
citation made fight against the assess
ment before the board of equalization
and was successful.
Judge Cray will now be called upon to
decide certain points in the case and will
determine the amount of tax the asso-
citation must pay into the county treas
ury. This point was not submitted to
the jury.
The jury was given the case at about
four o'clock yesterday afternoon and did
not reach an agreement until about four
o'clock this morning. During the night
one of the jurors. Mr.. Wier of Good
Thunder, was taken i'll and the services
of a physician We're needed.
William Hubner's poor memory got
him into trouble this morning. He was
a witness for the state in the case
against Oscar Olson, charged with vio
saloons on the Sabbath day. He could
not remember whether it was on May
&c or some other date that he visited the
saloon. Repeated questioning ON the
part of the county attorney failed to
bring out an answer definite in it's char
acter. When the witness left the chair
Judge Cray took hand in the proceed
ings. He asked the county attorney if
Hubner had not testified before the grand
jury that it was ON May 10 that he was
in the saloon. County Attorney Wilson
replied that he did. Whereupon Judge
Cray ordered Hubner placed under ar
rest and directed the county attorney
to bring a charge of perjury against
him. Sheriff Williams Immediately took
charge of Hubner
Hubner was required to give bond of
$1,000.
Other witnesses went on the stand and
testified, and their memories appeared to
be quite clear. Attorney Benedict for
the defense attempted to prove by one
witness that he had been hired to 90 to
the saloon on Sunday for the purpose OF
securing evidence for the state. The
witness said that he was not employed
and was not spy"
The defense did|n put in any testi
mony.
The case against Olson was given to
the jury at ll:50.
At few minutes after four o'clock the
jury returned with a verdict of guilty.
