BANKRUPT CASE
REMANDED

Santa Fe, May 9.-In the fed
eral court today, in the matter
of Julian Tuttle, Werner P. John
and w. S. Rogers, of Estancia,
the decision of Referee E. A.
Johnston was reversed and the
matter remanded for further
testimony and proceedings in
conformance with the courts
opinion regarding the acceptance
of a mortgage. The opinion
says:
THE mortgage in question to
j. w. Tuttle is not void as a mat
ter of law. The record does not
Justify the view that it was TAX
en- with a fraudulent intent, so
that it is not void as a matter of
fact. 1t is void, however, as to
all creditors extending credit, to
the extent of such credit, be-
tween August. 20, 1912, its date,
and December %, 1912, the date
it was recorded. Having no af-
ter acquired clause it covers only
the goods in stock at its date,
not to any bought thereafter,
and its lien is to be upheld only
to that extent. Likewise, the
mortgage cannot claim under
his mortgage anything until the
amounts due by the firm of Tut
tie & Son, OF which he was a
member, on August 20, 1912, the
date of its dissolution, have been
fully paid. To hold otherwise
would be to permit Tuttle to
come into competition with the
creditors of the firm of which he
was a member, and thus with
his own creditors. This cannot
be permitted. The effect of the
foregoing is to leave Tuttle's
mortgage good but only (a) as
against the proceeds of goods ac-
tually in stock on August 90,
1912. and (b) junior to any debts
of Tuttle & Son outstanding on
that date and allowed herein,
and (c) junior to any debts al
lowed herein contracted by Tut
tie & John from August 20, 1912,
to December %, 1912. The de-
cision of the referee which re-
jected the mortgage in toto must
be reversed and the matter re-
manded to the referee for fur
ther testimony and proceedings
in conformity with this opinion. y

Representatives Of Bridge Company
and City Council Reach Final
Agreement Here
Yesterday.
WILL START WORK SOON
Draw Span Must be Reconstructed
Before Navigation Opens in The
Spring, Gilman
Says.

\ u j.. . y 4 y
The conference held here yesterday
between the city council and Theodore
Gilman, secretary of the Keokuk and
Hamilton Bridge company, resulted in
two changes to the original agreement
being made. One of the changes, af-
fecting the grade of the viaduct lead
ing to the bridge proper, is of major
Importance.
A new agreement, embodying these
changes. was drawn up at the conclu-
sion of the conference and signed by
both parties. During the conference
Mr.. Gilman acceded to every demand
made by the council, Mayor Moorhead
said. Mr.. Gilman left last night for
New York. The ordinance granting
the bridge company the right to con-
struct their approach en- this side Of
tho river will be adopted at once and
the advertisement for bids on the
contract for the reconstruction of the
bridge will be issued in few days.
According to the agreement the
draw will 10 the first part OF the
bridge to be reconstructed. This
work is to be completed before navi-
cation opens in the spring in order
that river traffic will not be interfered
with.
At tn, request OF the bridge COM
pany the original agreement between
the city and the company wasrchanged
to allow the viadhct FRI IL bridge
to the Iowa size to - landed five feet
higher than wes first intended. Engi-
neers for the bridge company found
it necessary to make this change The
council willingly agreed to this change
the viaduct, thus making it easier for
vehicles to pass from the bridge, to
the top of the Main street hill in this
city.
| The viaduct will be 20 feet above
| the railroad tracks where it leaves
/ the bridge, instead of "a feet as first
planned. This elevation will require
a greater all to be made where the
viaduct ADULTS on the block fronting
on Water street. The extra expense
for this fill Is to be paid for by the.
bridge company, in fact the city IL to
be put at no expense whatever in the
reconstruction of the bridge.
! One other change agreed upon was
that the entrance to the viaduct from
First street be placed lis feet from
Blondeau street toward Main street,
instcad Of 125 feet from Blondeau, as
Grst was planned. This change was
made at the request Of the city. 1t
will maxi, no material difference at
the time the viaduct is completed
next year However, the city plans to
extend this viaduct through the block
just above to Main street, bringing 1t
out on Main street lust below Second.
When this is done, probably not for
a number of years, 1t will be advan
tageous to have the viaduct come cut
on First street nearer to Blondeau
than had first been intended.
Since the reconstruction Of the
draw span must be completed before
navigation opens in the spring, it is
expected that work will be conf
nenced on this part of the bridge as
soon as the contract can be let. Adj
yertisements for bids will be issued
in two or three days. There will be
between twelve and fifteen companies
bid for the work. Mr.. Gilman said.

near future.

Johnny couIon Back in Racine, Wis,
Ring Tonight.

COulon is DantamWelght champion
merely in name or in the real sense
of the word.
Logan Squares idol meets Young
Sinnet in Racine, and it will be the
first time he has been in a fight since
last June. Forecasting his perform
aHce is impossible He may have en-
tirely recovered from the illness that
caused his previous breakdown, or
he may still be unable to travel at the
dizzy clip that took him to the top of
the heap.
Coulon has not picked out a soft
mark to come back with. Sinnet is
not a champion, but he is no dub,
either, and has the qualifications to
give any little fellow tough, rough
battle.
In his last mill couIon appeared to
be in good shape. But he simply was
not there with the punch and speed,
and went back into retirement for
another period of rebuilding.
If Johnny wins decisiVely tonight
he promises Kid Williams of Balti-
more a crack at the title, and he can
make no excuses for further postpon-
ing the clash. For over a year Viii
Jams has been tearing Hp and down
the country, threatening dire things
to John, and claiming that he was the
real wearer of the crown.
He has done considerable fighting,
and has drawn many admirers to his
standard as a result. Eddie Canlpi
has fallen before him once, and they
are rematched for go on the coast
Jan. go Williams should be an easy
winner again, and he will immediate
lyfget busy on Coulon's trail.
If match is made between the
Baltimorean and Coulen it will not be
fought for some time. Johnny will
neeu more than one ten-round mill
to point him for a utle bout over the
derby distance.
