# TWO DIVISIONS OF # DISTRICT COURT IN # SESSION AT SAME TIME The district court was in session in two divisions yesterday, Judge H. F. Raynolds presiding in the district court room upstairs in the court house and Judge E. L. Medler in the Judge's chambers downstairs, Judge Medler heard the Fernandez company's petition for an injunction against Elias Frances, whom the petitioner charges with allowing stock to trespass on its land. The damage suit of Francisco Gomez against the Santa Fe railway was on before Judge Raynolds. The plaintiff asks $2,000 damages because, he says, he was ruptured while lifting a heavy pushcar. He was employed as a section laborer for the railway. The jury was selected. The jurors are: J. R. Riviera, Frank Ralph, A. W. Hayden, William Kieke, Serafin Garcia, Higinio Montoya, Andres T. Chavez, Mariano Garcia, C. E. Boldt, Ysidro Lopez, Pedro Elwell and Benito Perea. Harry P. Owen, receiver for the Montezuma Trust company, said the Del Rio Electric Light & Ice Co. of Del Rio, Tex., offered to pay 10 per cent on a $4,000 note, executed by W. H. Wolff to the company and secured by Del Rio bonds. He asked that the court order the acceptance of the Del Rio company's offer. Wolff was declared a bankrupt and the note listed in his schedule as a liability, the receiver said. The Southwestern Brewery & Ice Co. brought suit against Charles Grande, asking judgment for $296.40. District Attorney Manuel U. Vigil filed a petition asking that the assessment of the Charles Ilfeld company's stock be reduced from $180,000 to $120,000 and that the assessment on its improvements be cut from $50,000 to $36,000. The district attorney found the assessment was unjust.
