they are frivolous, sham. aud a
reflection on the officers OF this
court.
Attorney Clegg who is not involv-
ed i'll any other way i'll the bank
cases, reviewed the situation OF the
receivership at some length in pres
enting the petitions TO the court.
In part he said
Cle99s Argument.
i was about to say, if the court
please, that they (the petitions) rep
resent about eighty per cent of the
and as respects tho amounts, the
original amount which the bank at
it constitutes at least one quarter
Of the total amount OF the indebt-
believe is true-that the indebt-
edness of the bank at the time of
ito loAidi 81 lal as liit 'ooh N'tlu'o
show, was one million dollars OF
in that neighborhood
Now the petitions with reference
to the removal Of the receiver. set
forth some very important and seri-
Gus charges against the receiver,
if true. ! presume the court would
want, before closing the matter, to
determine whether on their face they
represent a sufficient statement Of
facts to warrant the court in going
any further with them.
They charge, in misunderstanding
the petition with reference to the
removal of the receiver first: that
the present receiver is inattentive to
his duties, that he is not a man of
sound or good judgment; that he
lacks tact; and that for several
months during the past year-the
year 1913-whle it was very i'm
portant that he should be here at
tending to his duties, he was absent
for q period of two months
They also charge if the court
please, in substance. that in their
opinion the conduct of the receiver
ship has been exceedingly extrava-
gant-in fact. wasteful, with refer
ence to the assets of the bank, with
no opportunity to ever recover any
thing for the outlay and expendi-
ture incurred by the present receiv
er. The other petition asks for the
removal of the receiver, on the
ground of the extravaganza Of the
receiver, and wiful waste of the
assets of the bank They charge
that this is mainly in connection
with the tendency of the receiver
to institute great number of law
suits. involving great delay in the
conduct of the receivership and its
final winding up, putting people TO
great expense in the conduct of
the receivership and its final winding
lp and without any appreciate
hope of recovering anything as the
result Of such lawsuits. Now as to
these matters, | am not going to

Attorney Clegg also attacked the
right Of Moves legally to serve as
receiver OF the bank, on the ground
that his bonds are worthless. He
pointed out that the Southern Surety
company of Oklahoma. which pro-
yided the bonds for Moves, has not
legal right to do business in the
Territory Of Alaska, and that the

day morning. 1t is planned to pro

some new ruling is made. and to

positions at later date

The petitions for the removal Of
Receiver Noyes and for the dsmis
sal of the banks cases We're signed
several months ago and informally
handed 10 Judge Fuller, They were
taken out of the hands of the
court Saturday and properly filed
by Attorney Clegg, acting under the
direction of f. H. Mack and David
Yarnell, who have been hand
ling the petitions on behalf of
the depostors. The latter are de-
lenudntS Ill one OF more Vi TIE cases
being brought by the bank.
On the ground that the petitions
court had them stricken from the
records Saturday and gave permis-
sion for them to be filed in a more
approved form later. This will prob
ably be done within the next few
days. or soon after the first trial is
ended
Noyes Bond Questioned
The question of the validity of
Noyes bond will probably be deter
mined by the court before the first
trial is over, for unless he has
legal right to bring suits in behalf

In the name of Noyes as receiver
would not be effective. Thus it is
expected that the court will deter
mine that feature soon.
In presenting the petitions to the
attention of the court, Attorney Clegg
declared that for the last two years
Noyes had operated the receivership
at a direct loss to the depositors.
70 prove this he quoted from Noyes'
own report. He declared that the
expenses of the receivership for the
year 1912 was $500 more than the
receipts. and that the expenses for
the wear 1913 We're about $1,000 more
than the receipts.

receiver. objected to the petitions
on account OF the form in which they
were presented Then he asserted that

WHY MOVES REMOVAL is ASKED

WHY MOVES REMOVAL is ASKEC
Following are three paragraphs
from the petition OF a large
number of the depostors Of the
Washington-Aiaska bank, asking
for the removal of Receiver r.
G. Noycs:
"One. That we feel that all
the duties of the receiver can be
performed by one competent man
and that F. G. Noyes. the pres
ent receiver is not fit or
capable person to act as receiv-
er for the reason that he is not
possessed of the requisite judg
mcnt, energy, clerical ability and
tact, that he is unpopular and
on thst account (among others
cannot obtain information as to
property owned by the debtors
Of said bank and what could be
realized upon; that he does not
devote his time and attention
to the duties of his sad office.
but leaves it to others, thereby
mourning great and unnecessary
expense, and particularly do we
feel that the said Noyes is Gull
pabIy negligent in his duties in
leaving Fairbanks and continu-
ing away therefrom since the
9Th day IT July. 1913, the most
available time fer the receiver
70 realize on the banks assets.
Two. That the report of the
receiver shows that the expenses
of the receivership are extrava-
CANT and that a competent and
capable person could have ad-
ministered the said receiVership
at one half the cost of the pres
ent receivership; that from the
report filed by said F. G. Noyes
II appears that during his in
cumbency the expense Of his Of
flee has amounted to more than
S42 10000 without counting earn
ed but unpaid salaries of re-
ceiver and attorneys and other
assistants. which Will probably
amount to sum in excess of
$4,000 90, making total ex-
pense Of his receivership for
twenty-four and one-half months
of more than 100000.
Three. That said receiver
has failed to collect assets Of
the bank that for the past two
years have been and now are
colIectible. and has seemingly
exercised no effort so to Go. or
to gather in, collect and dispose
of mortgaged property given to
secure unpaid notes"
