pare such complaint forthwith, which
might include the charges itemized
below:
l. Neglect of the interests of the
Trust Company in the following re-
spects:
(a) Failure to enforce orders made
relative to prosecution of causes of
action arising from supposed trades,
as a result of which trades the de-
positors were alleged to have been
defrauded of large sums of money
These causes of action were permit
ted to become outlawed ON account of
no prosecution within the period al
lowed by the statute of limitations.
(b) Failure to require verified re-
ports from the receiver, and failure
to permit filing of any reports by re-
ceiver subsequent to report for the
period ending March 81, 1915.
(c) Failure to act, as required by
law, promptly upon any matters
duly submitted to him for decision.
I'D Failure to render a decision in
accordance with the law and the
facts in the matter of attorney fee
earned by Mack & Green as attorneys
for the receiver, when said facts were
peculiarly within his knowledge. In
order to secure a decision, it is al
legged that 1t became necessary to
submit the case to an outside Judge,
who was in no way familiar with the
results actually accomplished and
not in a position to decide the case on
its merits.
(e) Failure to fix the compensation
of the receiver after petition praying
for such order filed August 6, 1914,
until January 2S, 1919, and, suisse
quent to reversal of said decree of
January 30, 1919, by the Supreme
Court in January, 1920 failure to en-
ter any further order fixing said
compensation, for the period from
August l. 1912 to date.
81 Failure to require the proper
filing, entering and docketing. by the
clerk, of matters in connection with
the receivership.
2. Failure at any time since intro
duction of Assembly Concurrent
Resolution No. 2 on January "a, 1921.
to take any action in compliance with
the reasonable request that he "be
called upon to take immediate action
in this matter"
3. Failure for periods running
from one month to three years, to
comply with the spirit of acts requir-
ing pudges to decide all matters
within ninety days after the date of
their submission. I'm this connection
it should be stated that on account
of the 1913 act, Judge Langan has
been able to draw no salary whatever
since January 80, 1919, and prior to
that date was able to draw no salary
from January, 1916, until affidavit
filed in 1919, because he had failed to
decide matters pending. 1t should,
also be stated that it is very doubtful
if. under the wording of the affidavits
heretofore filed by Judge Langan, he
was legally entitled to draw any sal
airy at any time since June /, 1879
4. Failure to preserce the publ
cial dignity required of all members
of the bench, by directly causing the
introduction, and lobbying for the
passage, of a bill Statutes 1915,
page 1851 under the terms of which
he, and he only, would be allowed in
addition to salary the sum of $4,000
per annum under the guise of ex-
penses, payable monthly from state
appropriation, in direct contravention
of laws binding all the other district
judges of the state.
5. Failure to submit, since the re-
peal of said travelling expense act,
travel expense vouchers on the basis
of charges made by railroad COM
pany, when there is no reason, ex-
cept personal convenience, pleasure.
and profit, to justify presentation of
vouchers at the rate of rs cents per
mile travelled in his own car.
Though 1t may be contended that
the above-stated grounds numbered
3, and do not properly belong in
this report, the committee feels JUS
