SUPREME COURT UPHOLDS
SAN DIEGO BOND ISSUE
BY Associated Press.


SAN FRANCISCO, March 2S.-A de-
cision of interest to municipalities
throughout the safe in it's bearings on
the validity of city bond issues was
handed down by the supreme court to-
day when the court decided in a case
brought by the city council of san
Diego against Auditor Daniel Potter,
that Potter must take steps to raise
funds on a seried OF bonds for street
improveme- is voted by the citizens.
The point brought out by the court
in it's decision was that the legality of
a whole bond issue. where several Items
of revenue had been voted on sepa-
rately by the people, could not be held
in question simply because one of the
bonds submitted to the voters happened
to be illegal.
Many fine technicalities were in
voIved and the ruling establishes Il
far-reaching precedent in such cases.

being unquestioned by the board OF

The next feature of the document
and the principal one is the trading

an amount of securities exceeding
100000 was traded, in most cases
the parties so engaged receiving dol

The plaintiff alleges that this action
of the defendants in allowing this to
go on was unlawful and unauthori-

OF the best securities held by the in

remains only accounts which could
not be traded and securities, the ma

The RICkEY BANK
DIRECTORS SUED

Another turn of the State Bank
and Trust company wheel has been
made and Saturday in the district
court of Ormsby county Frank l..
Wildes became the plaintiff in an
action as receiver of the State Bank
and Trust company against T. B.
Hickey, George H. Meyers, P. H.
Peterson, AL. Livingston, Wilson
Brougher, George w. Mapes, Charles
T. Bender. James P. Woodbury. and
is. l.. Lee, who were the former di-
rectors of the defunct bank. The in
strument filed contains over forty
pages and contains complete his
tory of the corporation. 1t claims
that the amount of $4,000 which
has been paid to the stockholders
during the past two years in divi-
dends was far in excess of the
amount that should have been paid.
1t states that at the closing of the
bank. about year ago the assets
were claimed to be. $2,6S1,SOS.51,
when as a matter of fact the true
value was only about $560,00O. The
liabilities at this time were estimated
to be $3,614S399.6S.
1t also claims that directors oil the
bank were guilty of mis-management
and of failure and neglect to per-
form their proper duties by allowing
loans of thousands of dollars to be
made without the consent of the
board of directors.
The document then sets forth the
fact that at-the time of the suspen-
sion of the bank there was in all only
$140,326.17 in coin in all the
branches of the bank and this in
cludes the amount owed to them by
other banks. This cash represented
one of the principal assets while at
the same time the bank owed to de-
positors the amount of $2,30S, 027.22
and according to their laws should
have had at least 20 per cent of their
deposits on hand in coin or the
amount Of s461,6OS.44. Their actual
reserve of $s21,z7s.27 was found to
have been invested in loans whose
securities were a lot Of worthless
mining stock. Attention is also call
ed to the $4,000 of the depositors'
money spent in the erection of the
banking building at Tonopah and
which has decreased in value fully

Fine MeteOrife
On Exhibition
in this City

A meteorite, considered one of the
finest that has ever fallen in the
United States, was brought to Tono-
pah yesterday and placed in the Of
fee of the Tonopah Banking corpora
ton. The huge body of metal was
found on claim belonging to Mrs.
Eugene Howell, in the Twin Springs
district. Over week ago Professor
w. P. Jenny was sent to locate the
body and after travelling over 400
miles by auto he succeeded in finding
it and bringing it to Tonopah with a
six-horse team.
The aerolite is supposed to have
fallen in 1898, as one was seen at
that time by the residents of Candle
laria, travelling in a westerly direc-
ton, and if this is the one it passed
directly over the place where the city
of Tonopah now stands. 1t was seen
to fall far to the west in the vicinity
OF where Clifford now stands. 1t
weighs slightly over 1000 pounds
and measures eleven feet in circum-
ference, forty-two inches long, thirty
four inches wide and is two feet
thick. The base is oval in shape and
it is very irregular in outline The
upper surface is deeply channeled
and pitted by the fusion in passing
through the atmosphere. When
found it was just slightly embedded

in the earth, showing that it was
travelling at an angle with the earth's
surface when it struck. The body is
composed of 80 per cent iron and 1C
per cent nickle.
1t will be eventually installed in
some institution, which will probably
be the Smithsonian institute at
Washington, D. c., as an offer has
been made by it for the body, which
is in excess of several other offers
received
When the meteor was being un-
loaded and placed in the bank a
large number of people were attract
ed by the novel sight and many COM
ments were made as to the perfect
condition and beauty of the speci-
men. Professor Jenny, who has
studied several meteorites, stated
that in his opinion this one was the
finest in the United States, owing to
its perfect shape and preservation.
He stated that the true test to de-
termine ameteoric body was that
known as the Widmanstadttin test,
where thin portion is sawed off and
an acid placed thereon. After stand
ing several moments the acid is re-
moved and the nickle figures stand
out in bold relief. This test will
probably be applied when the meteor
is placed in museum.
