TRYING TO GUST
RECEIVER WILDES
Directors of the Defnct State Bank and Trust Co. Make
Appeal to the Courts-They Refuse to Abide by Their
Consent for the Appointment of Receiver, Given
Prior to His Appointment by the Court

certain terms. But the receiver has
brought many other suits in which
the depositors are vitality interested
He has paid dividend and consum-
mated business drafts involving the
securities and accounts of the bank
without number. Brief contempla-
ton of the confusion COMPOUNDED,
that would result from a granting of
this appeal makes it an issue of para
mount interest to the entire state of
Nevada and to business interests far
beyond its borders. Receiver Wildes
has been made the subject of the
states wide discussions and his
every act has been subjected to criti-
cisim. His legal advisers have like
wise fallen heir to widespread COM
ment. Denunciation and praise, con-
fidence and suspicion are naturally
the lot of man in his position and
those associated with him. Yet he
has been the instrument of a court,
the peoples last resort for an ac-
counting of moneys lost through the
fundamentally of great and trust
ed bank-as such he was safeguard
ed by the strongest course known to
modern business methods. He was
under bonds passed upon and APP
proved by the courts. His acts and
| his administration of the banks af-
fairs were and are matters that
might be easily checked and verified
by a competent authority. The peo-
pie are going to ask why this appeal.
Because he appeared before Judge
Langan, as legal representative of
the State Bank and Trust company
when the state of Nevada asked for
a receiver, the News asked Mr. Sam
Plat of this city for a statement OF
his views on the extraordinary situa-
ton now presented. His statement
revealed a lack of unanimous actor
on the part of the directors.

Thief TAPPED
A SLOT MACHINE

Sometime during Tuesday night or
early yesterday morning thieves
broke into the Oasis saloon on Main
street and tapped a slot machine for
about $35 in quarters. The entrance
was effected by the back window
and it is thought that during the
evening while the saloon was open
someone extracted the nails which
lock the window and when the par
ties were ready to enter the place all
they had to do was to raise the win
dow.
Chief of Police Malley arrested a
suspect yesterday and when search
ed a number of quarters were found
in his pockets. He will be tried in
the justice court today.

The Carson News OF Tuesday says:
A notice of appeal from Judge Lam
gan's decision appointing a receiver
for the State Bank and Trust COM
pany was filed today for certain of
the directors. An undertaking was
furnished and the transcript on ap-
peal was Immediately filed with the
clerk of the supreme court. Under
the law a years time Is permitted for
an appeal from final judgment and
the supreme court will be asked to
determine whether Judge Langan
had jurisdiction to appoint a receiver
at the instance and request of the
attorney general under the act pro-
viding for the state bank commits
sioners to take the initiative in pro-
ceedings of this character. A direc-
tor who has failed to join in this APP
Samuel Plat of this city, declined to
join with the other attorneys in the
appeal. He was asked to give his
reasons, which appear as a statement
in another part of this article. 1t is
believed that the appeal was inspired
by the suit which the receiver has
brought against the directors of the
bank. If the supreme court should
hold that the trial Judge had no jur-
additional right to appoint receiver
the suit which he has brought will
fall of it's own weight. In fact, every
suit already commenced by the re-
ceiver would meet the same fate and
his every act become invalid in case
it should be finally determined that
the receiver was without legal au-
thority to act.
Cheney, Massey and Price, Judge
Downer and Summerfield and Curler
are appellants attorneys, represent
ing former Directors George H. Mey-
ers, P. H. Peterson, George w
Mapes, Charles T. Bender, James P
Woodbury. and S. l.. Lee.
This action is the most far reach
ing and vital move made in the af
fairs of the defunct bank since the
appointment of Receiver Frank l.
Wildes. Though it is impossible t
predict the outcome of such an ac
ton, it is reasonable to suppose tina
it was not brought without good rea
son, on the part of the eminent ant
experienced counsel associated, to an
ticipate either a successful issue O.
to secure a delay. In either even

concerned. The purpose of the ap
peal is manifestly step in the de
Tense outlined, in view of the receiv
ers suit filed in the first judicial dis
trict on the tenth day of November
1908. That this suit would b,
fought, in view of the breadth ant
force of its prayer and the enormous
extent of the charges and losse
sought to be recovered from the for
mer directorate of the bank was eX
pected as matter of course. TIL
probable action of the parties at in
terest has been subject of genera
and wide spread comment with tn
public in general and the depositor
in particular since it was filed. I
wide diversity of opinion has existe,
as to the relative responsibility o
the directors and the former presi
dent of the bank, for the acts result
ing in its suspension in October o
1907. The receiver and his attorney
have been sharply criticized for no
taking into account this relative re
sponsibility, since the complaint il
self makes the distinction in no un

Interesting developments
Have Grown Out of Suit
Filed by Harriet Brown VS..
0rville Brown.
DEFENDANT MARRIED.;
LIVES IN DAVENPORT
Mrs. Brown Was Wife of Two
Brothers and She Wants
Name Changed, But Will
Probably Be Refused.

Interesting developments have
grown out of the suit for divorce from
Orville Brown, entered by Harriet
Brown. a few days ago. The man
from whom she is seeking divorce is
married. He is living happily with
his wife in Davenport. Iowa. and far
beyond the reach of his first life mate.
And he can not be prosecuted for big
amy as it is learned now he secured q
divorce from the woman now suing
him before he married his second wife.
who formerly was Miss Lunsford of
this city. The first Mrs. Brown
whose maiden name was Quigley. also
asks for the restoration OF her maiden
name, but it is probable even this will
be ndenied her. At the time OF her
marriage to Orville Brown she was
the widow Of Browns brother. and 1t
is hardly likely the court would over
look this first marriage and make her
name Quigley, although the case has
not come up gor hearing.
Divorced In Pittsburq.
It was in the superior court at Pitts
burg. November, 1903, that Orville
Brown was granted divorce from his
wife. Brown was working at Pitts
burg at tho time. The judgment
against Mrs. Brown went by default a.
she did not appear nor put up any de-
tense. Later Mrs. Brown filed q pc.
titfon to reopen the case. but in the
meantime Brown had married his pres.
ent wife. IN accord WITH Pennsylva-
nian law the petition was approved
and again the case was open for evi.
dence. But Mrs. Brown defaulted
again. and in January Of last year the
original verdict was affirmed.
What will become of Mrs. Browns
suit in the local court is a matter Of
conjecture. Attorneys say II Brown
secured legal divorce, there is no oc-
casion for his former wife to be suing
him as his wife. The tangie is one ol
the knottiest that has appeared in the
local courts for some time. r. e.

local case and R. ]. Study the defend.

CLAIMS INNOCENCE

Robert r. Tolley, under arrest at
Connersvil1e, and accused of passing
fraudulent checks, is putting up a
claim OF innocence. His story is not
prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
Tolley's escapade in this city in which
he avoided punishment will not help
him any, as he has claimed at Con-
