1t Denies Legality of Involun-

ings Against Dead Man
DEVELOPMENT IN CATION CASE
If the Demurrer Filled by the Protected
Depositors is Sustained, the Estate
Will be Probated ard They Will Get

Special to Timse- Republican:

Council Bluffs, April 3.-Denying the
legality of involuntary bankruptcy
proceedings against dead man, is the
effect of a demurrer filed in federal
court here yesterday in the j. G. Cation
case.
While cashier of the bank at Ded-
ham, Cation went wrong. 1t is charged
that he had made private use of the
bank funds and sold many forged notes,
with his own Endorsement. Detecting
an impending crash he left for other
parts, but before going he decided all
of his property over to a friend to be
held in trust for the depositors of the
bank. This left the holders of the forg-
ed notes out in the cold and they filed
a petition to have him declared bank
rupt in order to get division of the
property. But service could not be Sc
cured, either on Cation or his wife, and
before the required legal publication
could be made, Cation died in Kansas,
where he had been in hiding.
The creditors who had started the
bankruptcy proceeding then had the
papers served on the wife. Now come
the protected depositors with demur-
rer asking that the petition be dismiss
ed on the ground that the proceeding
had not been commenced prior to the
death of Cation. The question at issue
is as to whether the proceeding had
actually been commenced. If the de-
murrer is sustained the estate will be
probated and the depositors will get
the money.

COURT At NEVADA.
Two Unsavory Cases Occupy Jurors
Attention.

Special to Times Republican.
Nevada, April Sit took jury OF
twelve men twenty three hours to ar
rive at the conclu Sion that they could
not agree in the Harkins-kirk seduc-
ton case, tried in the courts here last
week. The trial of this case CONSUME
ed seven days of the courts time and
a disagreement was the outcome. The
case excited wide interest and the
court room was literally crowded ev-
ery day during the taking of the evil
dence and the arguments OF the at.
torneys.
The case was one where Myrtle Har-
kins. a domestic, brought suit against
Robert Kirk, her employer charging
him with seduction and breach OF
promise, claiming that he had prom
Used to marry her as SOON as his VINE,
who was then very i'll, passed away.
The line of defense was largely set up
along the idea Of proving the woman's
past and present character, and pos
tive denial of all allegations IN her
petition. The jury spent twenty-thfee
hours in the elaboration of the case
and were dismissed Saturday evening"
about o'clock
The Emery !Hurd rape case is on
trial here today. This is case where
young Hurd, a baker working at A1nes,
is charged with an attempt at rape
upon a young lady named Roll, SIS
ter of his employer.
