I.ITIUATION ON CITY'S HANDS.
Property Owner on Mnln Strret
tlrntv Tlrnl of 'U'nlt lit II.
Unless tho city council can see some way
to ovcrcomo Its scruples In tho matter of
tho money deposited by tho motor com
pany In payment for tho paving on South
Main street It will havo further litigation
on Ita. hands. Property owners on Main
street, who nro anxious to securo tliolr
shares of the i 1,099.40 paid In by the motor
compuny, havo becomo tired of waiting,
nnd unless some nrrangoment Is reached
whereby a speedy distribution of the money
can bo mndo will tako the matter Into tho
courts.
At a meeting held yesterday of a number
of the property owners along South Main
street it was decided to make a formal de
mand on tho council for tho distribution
of tho money and If the nldermen Btill re
fused to tako any action lo at once com
mence mandamus proceedings In tho dis
trict court to compel them to do so. Tho
property owners take the stand that the
money, having been paid In by the motor
company, the council has no alternative but
to mako. a distribution of It through tip
city treasurer to those who nro entitled U
It.
The check yesterday was still In tho
hands of tho city clerk, the motor company
not having called for It. H Is made payable
to City Treasurer True, as required by law.
Attorney Wright of the motor company
said yesterday: "Tho motor company has
really nothing more to do wljh tho
check. Wo havo turned over to tho city
tho amount demanded for our share of tho
paving on South Main street and It in now
up to tho city authorities to make tho
proper distribution to tho property owners
entitled to tho tofund. Thero Is no reason
why there should bo any delay In this dis
tribution, ns wo have offered to sign nny
waiver that the city might demand. The
city cannot lose any rights It may hnvo
by UiIb money being turned over to tho
properly owners. It Is nil nonsense, this
talk about tho motor company having some
'ulterior motive' In paying over this money.
We were compelled by law to do so before
wo laid tho track. Of course. If the city
council thinks It might burn its fingers by
taking the check I see no reason why wo
should not take It hack from the rlty clerk
nnd hand It over to the city treasurer. This
Is n mere technicality."
City Treasurer True, when asked what
he would do I' tho check was presented to
him by the motor compnny, said: "I should
take the check so quick that It would mako
tho motor company's head swim. Tho
check onco In my possession I should lose
no tlmo In turning into cash. What I then
would do with tho cash would depend a
great deal on the nctlon of tho council. I
am of the opinion that thn property owners
on Mnln street, to whom It belongs, should
get It as soon as possthlo. It cannot, how
ever, bo distributed until tho city engineer
submits n schedule showing the amounts
coming to each property owner. Those who
paid tho original assessment for tho cost
of this paving nro entitled to tho money,
nnd I believe that under tho law I have
authority to distribute It ns soon ns I
know who are entitled lo It nnd the nmoiintH
coming to each. As far as I know at pres.
cut 1 have not to got nny Instructions from
tho council In the matter, but then I can
not say definitely what course I shall tako
until I nm legally advised In the prem
ises." Oravcl roofing. A. H. need, C41 Broadway.

Arguments In tho Officer & Pusey hank

In the district court yesterday afternoon
nnd were not concluded when court ad
journed for tho day.
Attorneys Hess and Stewart opened for
Intervening petitioners In support of thn
contention that the evidence Introduced
had established the fact that tho bank was
Insolvent at tho time the doposlls of tho
petitioners were made. They were fol
lowed by Attorney Ilenjnmln. on behalf of
tho petltloneis. who nrmiml nn tho ii
side of tho question. Insisting that If as It
i was claimed It had been shown that tho
imnK was insolvent then tho tltlo to depos
its of tho pcltloners had never passed to
the bank, but tho money had been held by
it In trust, and that such being the case,
the petitioners were entitled to havo their
clnlms preferred.
Attorney Harle, on behalf of tho receiv
ers, mado the first argument for tho de
fense. Ho argued that If the claim' of tho
petitioners wero preferred., then all the
claims of the eredltpratfiUpiild bo pre
ferred. ' if if"

that If at tho time these deposits of the

filed a demurrer yesterday to tho petition
of Intervention of Day & Hess and J. K.
Cooper, now beforo tho court. They de
mur on the grounds that tho title to the
money of tho petitioners deposited vested
on Its deposit In the banking firm of Of
ficer & Pusey, between whom nnd said de
positors tho relation of debtor nnd creditor
was established, nnd in consequent peti
tioners' rights arc only those of general
creditors; further, on the grounds that Of

receiving snld deposits, aud that tho peti
tioners' only remedy Is cither to rescind the
contract or ndlrm It and suo for damnges
for tho frnud, If nny, ond that no right to a
preference exists.
