Description

Articles consistently refer to a receiver for the Citizens' Bank of Ogden (George J. Kelly) and court actions concerning the receiver in 1899 and a report that the receiver was discharged in Sept 1900. No article describes a depositor run. I therefore classify this as a suspension (receivership) with ultimate closure/receivership rather than a run. Bank type not stated in the articles.

Ogden, July 15. SETTLED BY COMPROMISE PATRICK GILLIGAN GETS JUDGMENT OF $12,800. Suit Was Brought For $50,000-Jury Discharged For the Term-Other Cases Postponed Till September. The case of Patrick Gilligan vs. the Union Pacific did not go to the jury for settlement, but was settled by compromise. The plaintiff gets the sum of $12,800 for the loss of his legs in the accident on Nov. 4 last. As stated in yesterday's report, the case was postponed pending a long consultation of the attorneys. The consultation resulted in the attorneys agreeing on the above sum, together with some transportation privileges, as the sum to be given to Mr. Gilligan. The terms were ratified by Mr. Gilligan and by the main officials of the railroad, and the jury yesterday morning, under instructions from the court, rendered the verdict agreed upon. The suit was for $50,000, and involved questions which would probably have carried it to the supreme court of the United States if it had not been compromised. The attorneys in the case were Maginnis & Halverson, assisted by Joseph Whittaker for the plaintiff, while Le Grand Young and A. W. Agee represented the railroad. The two other damage cases expected to be brought up at this term have been postponed till September. In the district court yesterday the report of George J. Kelly, receiver of the Citizen's bank, was taken up by Judge Rolapp and referred to Clerk Hollingsworth as referee, to be heard. Clerk Hollingsworth will fix a date satisfactory to all concerned when the hearing will be had. In the matter of the estate of Hyrum D. Lewis, deceased, Administrator Dee filed petition for compromise, by accepting part payment as final liquidation of a certain mortgage held by the estate. An order to pay mortgage in the matter of the estate of Clifton S. Browning, deceased, was filed. In the matter of the estate of John Flinders, deceased, order correcting decree ordered entered. In the case of Margaret R. Fish vs. Oregon Short Line, verdict reduced to $2,175, and costs taxed at $156.40. A. H. Arnett and J. C. Easton, copartners as A. H. Arnett & Co., have brought suit against the Southern Pacific company for the sum of $2,000, alleged to be due them for damage to certain cattle shipped over defendant's road from California to Ogden.

# THE SHIRKING COUNCILMEN Still Absent Themselves from Council Meetings-Probably Meet on Monday. Big Damage Suit and Other Cases in District Court-Ogden News Notes. The city council is still in continuous session with only the five "Mormon" members present, they have been unable to get either of the three councilmen, Jones, Powers or Brown, who are in Salt Lake, to come back to the city. The councilmen at home are determined to stick it out and to hold session indefinitely until they can get some one of those absenting themselves from the meetings to be present, and just as soon as a session can be held with a quorum present some appointments will be made, and one of them is D. A. Murray for chief of police. The situation is becoming quite serious and unless something is done soon it is said that steps will be taken by the mayor to force the absent members to come to time. There has been some talk of warrants being gotten out for their arrest, but whether such a step can be taken legally is a question of doubt. Mr. Carr, the councilman who is sick at his home in Ogden, is improving, and it is thought that he will be able to attend council meeting on Monday and if this be the case then all of the councilmen will be present at the time, for the members in Salt Lake have said that they will be at meeting just as soon as Carr can be present. Many of the citizens are becoming very indignant over the affair, to think that some of the council would absent themselves from meetings just because they cannot have all their own way. In last evening's Standard an article appears which is said to be an interview of Dr. Powers, and in that article some statements are made which are pronounced as utterly false. Dr. Powers is quoted as saying that Joseph Streng and Peter Madsen, two of the jurors in the Erdman inquest, told him that they would stay by him if he would stay by them and vote for D. A. Murray as chief of police, and that Streng and Madsen, with Thos. Mercer, Fred Tout and Chas. Rapp, were persistently after Dr. Powers to have him promise to vote for Murray, but that he did not make any promise. Our representative saw Mr. Streng and Mr. Madsen last evening and asked them with regard to the charges that Powers had made against them, and they both denied having had any conversation with Powers either on Monday or Tuesday, and that they did not make any promise to Powers if he would vote for Murray everything would be alright in the inquest, and these gentlemen doubt very much whether Dr. Powers made the statement as quoted in the Standard, because the gentlemen say if he did, he fabricated the truth. Mr. Mercer, and Adam Patterson and a number of others say that Powers did positively promise them to vote for Murray, and now he (Powers) denies ever having made such a statement to anyone, and that he intends voting for Davenport when he meets with the council. Just where this council matter will end is a query among the public in general. # IN THE DISTRICT COURT. C. T. Beggs vs Hattie E. Morton and Edward T. Morton, is the title of a suit for a mortgage foreclosure; the sum involved is $7,500. In the divorce suit of Nancy Martin vs James E. Martin, the defendant failed to appear, so a decree of divorce was granted as prayed. T. C. Ford vs Union Pacific Railroad company; plaintiff was granted ten days' additional time in which to file amended complaint. W. J. Menzis vs Citizen's bank et al; the receiver of the Citizen's bank was ordered to set aside all rents and profits from the property sought to be foreclosed in this action, until further order of the court. Deming vs Toponce; the defendant not appearing, the court ordered that judgment in favor of plaintiff be granted and an order of stay of execution for ten days was entered. # BIG DAMAGE SUIT. In the case of A. H. Arnett et al vs Southern Pacific Railroad company; amended complaint filed increasing the amount sued for from about $2,000 to $3,000. The plaintiffs allege as the cause of action that they were shipping a number of cattle from California to eastern markets, and the stock was delayed in transit, many of them dying. The cattle that did not die became sick and poor because of said delay. The first complaint filed was for $3 per head loss on the cattle. Explanations were made in the amended complaint that the first suit was filed under misapprehension, and the facts in the amended complaint states that $15 per head was the loss sustained. The attorneys for the defense objected to the proceedings, and ten days' time was granted in which to file answer to amended complaint. # IN THE POLICE COURT. Olle Hansen and Oskar Mortensen, the two boys charged with robbing the Five Points store, were both fined $10 each.

OGDEN NEWS. OGDEN, SEPT. 15, 1900. # RECEPTION TO PROF. EATON Weber Stake Academy Commences Sept. 17 -Additional Instructors and Facilities. Operatic Concert for Benefit of Miss Tout-In the District Court-Bank, Receiver Discharged. One of the most elaborate social events of the year took place last even- ing in Christensen's dancing hall, the occasion being a grand reception given by the citizens of Ogden in honor of Prof. George A. Eaton, former prin- cipal of the Ogden High school, but now principal of the Salt Lake High school, At a meeting held a short time ago, the following committee was chosen to arrange the reception: Josh Grant, Chairman, Prof. L. F. Moench, Hon. William Glassman, Prof. William Al- lison and Charles H. Hollingsworth. Prof. Eaton was met at the depot by Messrs. Glasmann and Moench and ac- companied to the Reed hotel, where he was entertained until about 8 o'clock when the gentlemen accompanied him to the spacious hall, which had been beautifully decorated for the occasion with the High school colors, black and orange, and the Stars and Stripes, with elegant palms and sunflowers, artist- ically arranged, making an exquisite effect. As Prof. Eaton entered the hall, he was greeted by a gathering of per- haps 500 of his friends, and the High school students welcomed him with the school calls. Christensen's full or- chestra was in attendance and rendered some very melodious overtures, after which Hon. E. M. Allison Jr., in behalf of the citizens, presented Prof. Eaton with a beautiful gold-headed walking cane, engraved wien the words, "From the Citizens of Ogden to Geo. A. Eaton, Sept. 14, 1900." The presentation speech expressed the high esteem in which Mr. Eaton is held among the citizens of this city and his untiring efforts to ad- vance the Ogden High school in educa- tional lines, and his sterling worth as citizen. Prof. Eaton responded with expres- slons of appreciations and gratitude for the kindness of the citizens of this city and the friendship extended him. Prof. Moench of the High school fac- ulty then delivered an address to Prof. Eaton in Latin, expressing the feelings of the school towards him. The High school class sang the professor's fa- vorite German song, "Ach wie ist's moeglich dann." They also sang the High school song, which was composed by Prof. Eaton. Hon. William Glassman made a few remarks expressing the good feeling of the general public to Prof, Eaton, after which tripping the light fantastic was enjoyed until after midnight. A short rest was taken during the dancing, and Miss Arvilla Clark, of Provo, favored the audience in her usual graceful and pleasing way with a beautiful solo, entitled "Good bye," which was en- cored, and Miss Clark sang one of her favorites. On the stage dainty refreshments were served. The entire affair was a thorough suc- cess and worthy expression of esteem to Prof. Eaton. # WEBER STAKE ACADEMY. The Weber Stake academy will open on Monday next, September 17, 1900, for the coming school year. It has the fol- lowing important and increased facili- ties over last year: The faculty is en- larged by two excellent teachers. The facilities for scientific instruction have been much improved by the addition of about four hundred dollars' worth of new physical and chemical apparatus. Both the inside and the approaches to the building have been changed and made more comfortable as well as more pleasing to the eye. One more course of Instruction has been added and oth- ers changed so as to make the work more practical and more in harmony with the growth and demands of the times. The work promises to be in every particular of a more solid and re- liable character by virture of the sup- port given the institution in the past, and the creditable record made by those who have graduated from its courses. # OPERATIC BENEFIT CONCERT. Last evening a very choice grand oper- atic concert was given in the. Third ward amusement hall in honor of Miss Nannie Tout, who is to depart for Eu- rope in about three weeks to have her voice cultured. The concert was in charge of Prof. Coops and proved a thorough success. The following pro- gram was rendered: Concerte Violin and piano (Andante.
