NEW TRIAL GRANTED.

Judge Richie has granted a motion
for q new trial in the case Of Frank
Gitzohoffen against the Holy Cross hos
pital. Gltzhoffen sued the sisters of the
hospital for $4,000 for loss of his eye
sight for alleged neglect In the care of
the same when he was q county patient
at that institution about two years ago.
He received verdict for $4,000, on IN
structions from the Judge that the
agreement between the sisters and pa
tent was to the effect that he was TO
be provided with treatment every 20
minutes in which his eyes were to be
washed out with antiseptic wash. and
thai this arrangement was not carried
out. hence the sisters were liable for
damages.
The motion for a new trial was made
on the ground that there was no evil
dence from which the jury could draw
u conclusion that contract existed be-
tween the sisters and the plaintiff TO
provide two nurses, one to attend his
eyes In the day time and the other ut
night. With this contention Judge
Richie agrees, and the motion for IL
retrid of the cause Is granted.

CURRENCY BILL.
President w. w. Ritter of Deseret Saw
ings Bank Discusses Measure 4

x
Relativeato the currency bill: Pres
Sdent Ritter OF the Deseret Savings
bank said today: THE recent cur
rency bill passed by Congress- design
ed to authorize emergency currency
has no application locally, for the
reason that we have not enough cap
ital and surplus TO come within the
requirements of the bill. The only
way our banks could belong to any
currency association would be to join
with the San Francisco banks. which
could beedoneh only by their permis-
sion. Fttt le fs-
''The requirements OF the bill. as I
view 1t, are so stringent that / can
not see how any relief will be sought
under It, except in cases of dire emer-
gency. At all events, we here can
only receive an indirect benefit from
rs operation, That will come about
this way: sAs there are only a few
CITIES which can come under the re-
ouirements of the bill. there are few
cities that could form currency asso-
Citations and thereby relieve the ten
sion. II New York. as an illustration
could have operated under this law
in the last panic, the banks there
could have responded to the require
ments of their country correspond
chts, and sent on currency which they
could not do under the old conditions
10 TINS extent the Whole country can
receive direct. as we'll as an indirect
benefit from the bill. The tax on
emergency currency is so high that
nothing short OF universal disaster
would. in my opinion. induce banks to
take 1t up; and the government by
the provisions OF the BILL has amply
protected itself against loss. So il
strikes me as a rather one-sided af-
1air. The bill only provides means for
the banks to enlarge their circulation,
ana the government has no further
hand than TO direct operations. or
course, large beneht may be
derived from the passage OF this
act by the sentimental effect
