Examiner Thorno Finds the Wrecked Con
cern Rotten to the Core ,
SUIT TO ADD TO THE ASSETS OF THE BANK
Action Comnipnrnil by the llornivnr In Cir
cuit Court AgnlnU Stockholder * to
Kcrovrr A Quarter of n .Million
of Unciirnoil Dividends.
Receiver ' 1C. K. Haydcn of the wrecked
Capital National bank ot Lincoln has tiled
with the clrk of the United States district
court of this city one of the biggest suits
In the history of national banks In Ne
braska , and If he Is successful the sum
of $253,000 will be added to the assets of
the wrecked bank to be used In paying de
positors and creditors.
The suit Is an action against resident
stockholders of the defunct bank to recover
1213,703 of unearned dlvldends pald during
the existence ot the Institution. Similar
suits will be commenced against nonresident
dent stockholders living In the states ot
Massachusetts , Pennsylvania , Vermont , New
York , New Hampshire and Tcxasf , the ag
gregate amount sought to bo recovered being
$253,000.
This action Is the result of work accom
plished by Gilbert O. Theme of St. Paul ,
the national bank examiner who went to
Lincoln a month or two since to Institute an
examination of the bank's affairs at the direc
tion , ot Comptroller Eckels. Mr. Thorno has
worked unceasingly slnco his arrival , being
Assisted by J. H. Llngcs , and as a result
Df the research suit was commenced yes
terday In the circuit court at Omaha. This
Is the first step taken slnco the Investigation
began , but as the examination Is not finished
the flnal result cannot be predicted. Comp
troller Eckels Issued orders for a most
searching Investigation and those who are
familiar with the case say his Instructions
are being carried out to the letter.
In substance the petition of the receiver
charges that dividends have been declared
regularly every six months since the or-
of the bank as a national bank
rlzatlon when In fact there wcro no net
timings. These dividends , as they were
rfald from time to time ranging from 4 to
t per cant , Impaired the capital stock , but
( hi practice was continued up to the end
6 ( the half year ending June 30 , 1892. The
ixamtner' * Investigation shows that losses
wWo heavy from the organization of the
bank and that It has been Insolvent since
January 2 , 1885.
The dividends which are declared Illegal
wore mkdo by the directors , C. W. Mosher ,
U. 0. Outcalt , D. E. Thompson , A. P. S.
Stuart , 0. E. Yates. E. P. Hamer , R. 0.
Phillips and W. W. Holmes , the latter de
ceased. The officers of the bank , whose
duty It was to "cast up and state the amount
payable to shareholders , are also Implicated
In tno charges.
Th6 law docs not permit a dividend until
jill losses are charged oft and a certain
percentage of earnings placed to the credit
of the surplus account , and until the sur
plus shall have amounted to 20 per cent
of the capital stock. The report has been
current that one of the officers of the bank
frequently asserted that the Capital Na
tional bank never sustained any losses. The
examination shows the contrary.
Kent K. Hayden. receiver of the Capital
National bank of Lincoln , brings the suit
against the following resident stockholders ol
the bank : David E. Thompson , Henry E.
Lewis , Mrs. J. E. Baum , V. O. English , Miss
Tlllle Furst , Henry Gerner. Ellis P.

forenoon In Judge Ambrose's division of tin
district court. The arguments were chletl ;
conllncd to the legal aspect ot the proposltloi
and after the attorneys had concluded tin
court took the case under advisement mill
Monday. The counsel for I'ardee maintains
that they had a right to compel the counct
to act on the bond which they submitted 01
March 2 In accordance with the demand ot th
council , and cited numerous decisions bearlm
on the right * of private parties to have thel
bonds acted on promptly by municipal corpor
atlons.
City Attorney Council represented the city
nil Hascall , Wheeler and Sanders of tin
council were on hand to advise him. Con
nell took the ground that the court had in
right to Interfere in the functions of tin
city government , that the bond offered t > ;
I'ardeo & Co. was not substantial , and tha
nald Pardee & Co. had no legal standing
and that the council had simply acted In thi
Interests of the city by refusing to ente

LINCOLN , July 7. ( Special to The Ilee. )
A sensational feature of the call for the
populist county convention la the provision
for a tight against Judge Lansing. The
convention will meet at Donation's hall Au
gust 1. Among the objects enumerated In
the call la the nomination ot a candidate
for county Judge.
Judge Lansing , the present county Judge ,
was elected last fall to serve a term ot two
years. The Intention of the populists to
nominate a candidate for that office this fall
Is based upon a light the committee has
decided to make , on the ground that he did
not file his bond within the time allowed
by law , and that there Is therefore a va
cancy existing In the office. They also ac
cuse him of a failure to account for the
funds that came Into his hands. This lat
ter charge arises out of tne failure ot the
Capital National bank , In which the county
Judge was caught for $3,500. The commis
sioners refused to accept Judge Lansing's
bond until about thirty days after the be
ginning ot his term of office.
The two provisions of the statute upon
which the populists base their contention
provide that all official bonds of all officers
elected at any general election shall be
( lied at the proper office on or before the
first Thursday after the first Tuesday In
January next succeeding the election , and
that his bond shall not b approved until
he has produced and fully accounted for such
funds and property.
The matter was thoroughly threshed over
during the consideration of JudgeLansing's
bond by the county commissioners. The
Capital National bank was at the time of Its
failure designated the depository of the
countyfunds. . Since that time the county
has provided no place for the care of Its
funds , and the populists have grasped the
opportunity. ,
Tom Majors was In the city looking up his

one of the men employed at the Ice house
In the rear ot the American Biscuit works.
Yesterday the little fellow was playing
In the alley In the vicinity of the Ice house ,
when ho was called and told to hold the rope
used In lowering the chunks ot Ice from
the high build. ng to the wagon. After a
chunk of Ice Is lowered Into the wagon the
rope goei up at lightning speed.
The lad had a firm hold on the rope and
as the hooks were loosened from the Ice the
rope tlew through his hands , tearing away
the flesh and laying bare the bones In the
