Judge Keysor yesterday morning rend from
tho bench thollndlngs of the court In the
case of tho Homo Klro Insurance company
ngalnst Charles J. Uarbcr, James L. Lovctt,
James A. Woodman, George v. u. ucynuma .
nnd John J. O'Connor, In which transactions
nmountlnK to moro than $100,000 lu tho ag-
cregato were Involved.
On tho principal cause, by which the
'company sought to recover from Ilarber
nnd his friends tho nmount lost by It on
tho collateral loans made to them, the
court llnds practically In favor of the de
fendants, holding Ilarber for tho sum of
$6,601. Against thlB tho court finds that
'Jiarbor Is entitled to recover $768 on his
nilnry account.
I'Jn ill nun "f : Court.
Tho court finds substantially ns follows on
tho principal point of tho case:
The stockholders of tho plulntirf company
iTvcro divided luto two factions, one headed
'by Uarber and tho other by Hamilton. Tho
Hamilton faction, which held 607 shares of
Btock, gavo tho llnrbcr faction, which
awned only 237 share's, tho altcrnatlvo of
buying tho C07 shnrcs or submitting to an
flection of a board of directors that would
tust Ilarber from his position of sccrotnry
mil genorul manager. Harbor, Lovctt and
Itoynolds agreed among themselves to pur
chaso tho 007 shares und thus kcop tho com
pany In their own control, and for the pur
oso of making tho purchusa It was under
stood that they would procure tho money
'temporarily on their notes nnd tako up tho
notes with money borrowed from tho plain
tiff company utter securing control. Rey
nolds borrowed $2,500 from tho Fremont
I National bank, Ilarber und Lovctt borrowed
$21,000 from thu Commercial National bank
of Omabn und Ilarber raised $6,920, mak
ing tip tho sum of $30,420 necessary to pur
chaso the stock of thu Hamilton faction.
On January 21, 1S92, Ilarber and his
friends bought tho stock of tho Hamilton
faction nud paid for It with a check on
tho Commercial National bank. Hamilton
resigned as treasurer nnd Ilarber, being
elected In his place, received tho ensh on
hand of tho company, amounting to $33,
7S2.S5. I.onn In f'KOI Intnl.
On February 1, 1892, Harbor, Lovett nnd
Itoynolds borrowed $30,420 from tho plaintiff
' .. ' . '
company, giving real cstnto nnd other se
curltles, nnd paid their personal Indebted
Hess to tho Commercial National and Pro
inont National banks.
Theso mortgngo lonns mado by the de
fendants to themselves from tho company
wcro mado In good faith, tho real estate
Hecurlty being of fair valuo therefor at tho
tlmo tho loans wcro made. All of said
mortgage loans havo been paid In full either
by cash or by eonveynnco of property to the
company, except tho Interest on tho Ilarber
loan, amounting to $1,510, which Is now duo
nnd unpaid
Tho court finds that Harbor did no, act In
good faith as nn officer of tho company In
tho Raff transaction nnd ho Is liable for tho
loss to tho company, amounting to $5,091.

Intrri'MInu NiMt from llnrnun,
When wo heard several weeks ago that
W. C. Schutz, vice president of the P. II.
Klco Mercantile Cigar company, was going
to Havana on his annual purchasing tour
to mukn selections of fine Havana to
bacco for tho Mercantile cigar?, we re
quested him to make a nolo of Items which
might Interest our readers nnd we ore glad
to Impart somo of them In this Item.
'In tho first place when Mr. Pred Opp
nnd myself reached Havana wo were agree
ably surprised to seo how many Improve
ments had been mado In tho city. The
strcots nro swept dally and kept exceed
ingly clean; all houses havo now the best
sanitary arrangements nnd tho different
parks In thu heart of tho city looked beau
tiful nnd could not bo kept In n nicer con
dition. Streets that aro not already paved
aro being Improved and It nppears as
though they aro going to make them last
forever. Tho Philadelphia syndicate I
stringing Its wires for the electric street
rar system nnd already havo a large num
ber of beautiful cars which will take tho
plnco of tho old horso cars as soon ns tho
system Is completed, Thcro arc hardly
any changes In tho business establish
mcnts; occasionally there nro some signs
In thu English Innguagc, but very few
American proprietors. Thero seems to be
remarkablo Improvements In the pollen
force; nil of them aro Cubans nnd wear a
nlco blue uniform, caps nnd white gloves
A great many Americans go to Huvann,
but few of them like the country nnd
cllmato well enough to remain. Tho coun
try Is slowly recovering from tho effects

beforo tho sugar and tobacco plantations
will again produco as formerly, on account
of lack of money nnd farm help. When tho
last war broke out It Is said that over $127
000,000 wcro tnken out of the country by
tho Spaniards who returned to Spain, also
a number of farm hands returned to their
nntls'o country. Thero were some syndl
cntes formed for raising tobacco, but It Is
claimed their experience so far has been
a sad one. Somo of them planted a largo
quantity of tobacco last year, but for lack
of rain nnd proper care It turned out poorly
and this year tho hailstorms In the center
sections havo destroyed the entire crop. It
Is reported that tho many cigar factories
on tho Island lost money owing to tho small
crop of tobacco and tho enormous high
prices they wcro compelled to pay nnd tho
outlook for this year seems less cnoourag
lng, ns thcro has been too much rain In
tho country. When a person sees tho small
quantity of good Havana tobacco In tho
market It does not surprise ono to find so
many manufacturers in this country using
tobacco for wrappers which imitates Ha
vnna, but, of course, costs less and makes
a much Inferior smoko to a flno Hnvnnn
filled cigar, wrapped with fine. Imported
Sumatra tobacco. Tho public, however. Is
beginning to bo very suspicious of tho so
called clear Havana clgnr. Whilst I suc
ceeded In procuring tho quantity of to
bacco needed for tho manufacture of our
Mercantile cigars, It was only after n
diligent search through tho market nnd by
paying enormous prices for the same. Ow
ing to tho partial failure lit- last year's
crop and tho loss sustained by tho planters
there was considerable loss planted this
yenr nnd tho prospects nro that next year
tho prices will not bo lower, possibly
higher. Thero Is always a Inrgo amount
of Havana tobacco raised which Is very
poor In quality and does not oven eomparo
with our good domestic tobacco. On leav
ing Havnna wo found a number of new
rules adopted by tho government. Heforo
n ticket can bo purchased n doctor's cer-
tinrnto uns t0 be obtained, showing also
thnt n mrty hns 1)cf,n vaccinated; then tho
baggage is inspected beforo it Is placed
on board of tho ship nnd during certain
soasons of tho year all thos baggage is
fumigated."

Miss Peart Matthews, a teacher In the
Hawthorne, gchool, South Omaha, Is the
heroine of nn Incident growing out of the
recent smallpox scaro In that city, nnd ns
a result, sho knows moro nbout tho practi
cal application of electricity now than Is
required by the school curriculum. Con
valescing from u slego of tho malady, cut
off from tho outsldo world by n rigid
quarantine, sho put In place a telephone,
connected It with n wire, and thereafter
held hourly converse with the young man
with whom sho had been keeping company
beforo the armed guard was stationed out
sldo her boarding house.
Tho young man In the ease, doesn't wnnt
his name made public, as ho fears the tele
phone company would cbubo him trouble
for violating ono of Its rules, so, for the
purposo of this narrative ho will be known
as John llarcourt.
Mr. llarcourt had been calling upon Miss
Matthews b.t her boarding house, 1913 Mis
souri avenue, regularly three nights every
week. Ono day he received a noto from her
saying sho was 111 with all the symptoms of
smallpox and advising him not to call until
after her case had been diagnosed.
Iliirretl I'roiii Her llunsc.
Tho next time ho attempted to see her
ho found nil communication cut off. Tho
guard who was patrolling the street In front
of the house told him he couldn't go In, as
thero was a smallpox patient inside nnd tho
premises wero under quarantine.
A week passed, during which Mr. Har
court's Innllncss was conducive to thought.
Ho finally hit upon a scheme.
Preliminary to cnrrylng It Into execution
ho procured a little handbook entitled "Tho
Lineman" at an electrical supply house
and began to study up. Then ho negotl
nted with thn telephone company for an
other 'phono In his office.
As tho workmen wero putting It In ho
watched them cloRcly and asked many
questions.
They hnd been out of the office but n few
minutes when ho wns engaged In removing
It.
A handful of cigars paved the way with
the quarantlno guard and by 10 o'clock that
night tho Instrument had crossed tho dead
lino nnd was within tho proscribed premises,
accompanied by n letter of explanation ad
dressed to Miss Matthews.
.Mnu on 4Iip Hoof.
Later In tho night tho dark outlines of a
man npneared upon the roof of a vacant
house ndjolnlng. The guard comfortably
pulling ono of tho cigars saw him nttach
a stone to tho end of n long wlro and toss
It through tho second-story window of the
quarantined house. The apparition on tho
roof then disappeared nnd returned to Us
homo In another part of the city, but from
that chamber window n light shone during
tho greater part of tho night.
Miss Matthews was anchoring tho Instru
mcnt to tho wall and connecting It with the
wlro.
Tho next morning a conversation opened
over that wlro which, during tho next ten
days, was interrupted only for meals nnd
sleep. Miss Mntthows found tho telcphono
n great boon. It dispelled tho ennui of her
long convalesccnco and kept her In touch
with what was going on In tho outer world
And on his part, Mr. Hnrcourt wns well
pleased. It couldn't exactly componsato for
his trl-wcokly calls, hut It was better than
total banishment, and ho mado tho most of
It.
Miss Matthews has entirely recovered now
and tho quarantine Is off, but sho will never
havo occasion to regret tho night sho put
In mastering tho art of electricity.
