BANK CASE.
Judge Theron Stevens Rem
ders An Oral Opinion in the
Case of D. T. Clark ct al
VS.. The Stockholders of the
Colorado State Bank.

When the court took an adjourn
ment this morning it announced that
decision in the case known as the
bank case would be given at three
O'Clock this afternoon. At that time
the court having assembled stipula-
tion, which had been agreed upon by
the attorneys for both sides of the
case was dictated to the stenographer.
1t referred to the custody of some of
the papers of the detunct Color ado
State bank. At the conclusion of
this statement to the stenographer the
court rendered an oral opinion in the
case in favor of the plaintiffs. David
L. Clark and others and against the
defendants. the stockholders of the
bank.
In rendering this opinion. the
court became mildly humorous and
sarcastic, in regard to his court and
the bar of the 18th judicial district.
He said in part that for some time he
had thought that the bar and the
court of this district. i'll comparison
with the courts ON the other side
was behind the times in that it was
quite the fashion in the trial of cases
to question the constitutionality of
legislative enactments.
But he said that now he felt that
his court and the bar was measuring
up to the standard. as constitutional
question had been raised in this case.
The constitutional question in this
case hinged ON the fact of the signing
of that law upon which the plaintiffs
were trying to recover. that stock
holder of bank was liable for twice
the value of his stock. He would
have to hold that the law was consti-
tutional. He gave his reasons at
length for his opinion.
Under the circumstances then the
court said that it would have to find
in favor of the plaintiffs and against
a number of those who were repre-
sented as defendants. with possibly
one or two exceptions.
The opinion of Judge Stevens in
this case is. in line with other decis-
ions previously made and was gener-
ally anticipated by counsel on both
sid IS. In the first portion of his oral
decision the court complimented the
attorneys on both sides for the able
manner in which the case had been
placed before him.
This Judgment will affect the de-
positors of the defunct bank and ena-
BILE the assignee to pay considerable
dividend on the deposits if the decis-
ion is sustained by the supreme court,
to which court it will undoubtedly be
appealed.

THE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS

Another heavy break occurred yesterday in
the stock market, which closed weak with
prices aroGnd the lowest. New-York Central
was once more the most conspicuous object of
attack, but the entire list suffered, with de-
clines largest in the standard railway issues.
There were no news developments of
favorable nature but the market seemed to
have no resisting power. and the downward
movement, primarily due to short selling,
accelerated by liquidation Of long stock in
siderable volume partly, it is reported, the hold
ings OF a prominent Steel interest NewYork
Central went low 1142, 5A points below
the low record of 1899 which had not been
equalled until lest week Amalgamated Copper
went 80, a new low record. Chicago and
Northwestern touched 1631a the lowest price of
the year, and st. Paul sold down to 1441z also
a new low level for this year
These declines were not due to crop condi-
tions for the government report was better than
had been looked for, especially in The
government estimates. too, it must be remem-
bered, are as of July l, and since that date the
weather conditions in the vast grain regions of
the West have been of the most propitious sort,
the present outlook being for abundant, al
though not record breaking. harvests Railroad
earnings continue excellent as do trade condi-
TONS as reported by the mercantile agencies.
The bank statement. the appearance of
which the decline yesterday became more rapid
and general than it had been in the early trad
ing, was by means unfayorable. 1t showed
decrease in cash of S3,306,00O, which repre-
sented in part the gold export movement of the
week; but it also showed a loan reduction of
nearly SIS, 600 600. while the surplus reserve de-
creased only 1868, 200, the reserve now standing
at IS 00S 40, against $12 226 800 for the CORE
spending date in 1902 and S12, ,S09.3T5 in 1901.
The reported purpose of the New-York Cen
trail 10 raise additional capital for terminal i'm
provements in New-York City has been the
chief bear argument" of the week, but that
some arrangement for financing that construc-
ton work must be made has been self-evident
ever since the announcement was made, months
ago, that the CentraIs management had COM
mitted themselves to the working out of a ter
minal betteTment plan The persistent report
that the $1S000000 or $20000O00 required is to
be raised On shcrt term obligations at 6 per
cent has been effectively used TO depress New
York Central and the market in general stress
being laid or the fact that the Pennsylvania six
months ago raised S40.000000 al only az per
cent. The fact of the engal rent OF nearly
S1,000.000 gold 'ast week for export to Paris
has also been used in the bear campaign, and it
has been freely predicted that the drain will
continue this week. This gold has been sent
abroad to meet the requirements of the Russian
Loan about be brought out in Paris, however,
and the steamer sailing yesterday was the last
by which consignments for that purpose could
be sent.
