MOORHEAD LOSES
HOSPITAL CASE
BETHESDA SOCIETY WINS OUT IN
ACTION TO RECOVER FOR CARE
OF TWO PATIENTS-MAY TAKE
AN APPEAL-MULE Is CAUSE OF
ACTION IN COURT.

The city of Moorhead lost out in it's
suit with the Bethesda society of Min
nesota owners of the Northwestern
hospital in this city. Today the jury
returned a verdict of $221,37 in favor
of the plaintiff society, which had
brought an action for 1853, the amount
of bills presented to the city, and re-
fused payment on the ground that the
authorities of the city did not believe
the municipality wholly liable.
The action was to recover for the
cost of the nursing and treatment of
two patients, one of whom was a de-
pendent, but there was a question
about the second one who, when taken
in as a patient, was believed to be well
able to pay but ultimately it was found
that he was not. City Attorney With
crow appeared for the city, and he says
he has not yet made up his mind as
to whether he will take an appeal or
not probably the city was liable for
one case. Nye & Dosland appeare for
