ASSOCIATION
STOCKHOLDERS OF LIVINGSTON
LOAN & BUILDING ASST.
VOTE TO CONTINUE.
From Thursday' Dally.
Pursuant to the call of the direc
tors, and officers of the Livingston
Loan & Building association, as well
as the state department of banking,
the stockholders of the association
met at the district court room, which J
was crowded with the 300 or more j
interested parties.
For some time there has been ru
mors of the state of affairs of the
association and this has caused more ,
or less anxiety to the stockholders.
a greater part of whom are persons J
of more humble means who have.
through the .association, purchased
their homes or are making an in
vestment of their small savings.
The directors of the association
and the state department of bank- i
ing have been conducting an audit ;
of the books of the association to
reveal if possible any discrepencies
in the books of the secretary that
might affect the interests of the
stockholders. It was highly ad vis-;
able that the stockholders of the .as
sociation be taken into the matter
as far as possible and accordingly
the meeting last night was held.
The meeting was presided over by
H. M. Soennichsen. president of the
association, and there was present f
the acting secretary, F. E. Schlater,
who with A. L. Tidd has been con
ducting the audit of the books, J. E.
Hart, head of the state department
of banking, as well as a number of
the attorneys interested and a Teryj
general representation oi tne stoca
holders. Mr Tidd made a statement as to
the situation in the association, ex
plaining that in their audit there
has been found several errors that

tion, but that the audit of the books

tary, were engaged In checking up
be satisfied. That the association
stood to lose nothing was pointed
out by Mr. Tidd as the retiring sec
retary had acted in the best of faith
to protect the interests of the stock
holders against any possible errors
in the books by-placing all of his
property as well as an indemnity
bond in the hands of the directors
of the association and this, in the
opinion of the attorney, was ample '
to guarantee against any errors or
v, , JT;k. T, t,-h
urged that the affairs of the com
pany be continued as usual and that
it would be made to come through
the difficulties without affecting
anyone in the association, while a '
hasty attempt to close up the affairs
would work a great hardship on '
SlUia. . '
H. N. Dovey, president or the 1st
National bank, has been named as ,
trustee of the property of Mr. Fricke
until the matters are adjusted. I
t Ui.t r oToto -
of banking also took the position'
that there was nothing to prevent
the stockholders from continuing on
the business and making it pay as a .
thriving and well conducted loan and
building association should, as the-
officers had shown the desire to do
all possible to place it back on its
former successful basis. He explained
that in this state there were some
sevepty-six institutions of .this kind
and all -of them had been instrumen
tal in building up their home com
munities and made it possible for-the
homeseeker to purchase their own
home and become a valuable part in
the life of the community. He also
stated that in cane of a liquidation
of the affairs that there would be
more serious losses and that the pro
cess was one that would be very ex
pensive and in his opinion the car
rying on of the affairs of the asso
ciation was the most logical and
helpful thing for the stockholders
to do. He stated that there was no
reason why the association should
not be made to pay out in the man
ner that it had for years and remain
one of the great financial institu
tions of the community it had been
in years past.
Henry R. Gering of Omaha, one
of the stockholders, and who was for
twenty-one years secretary of the
association, made an earnest plea for
the . continuance of the affairs of
the association, pointing out the
many splendid results attained in the
past in the way of helping build up
the city and expressed entire confi
dence in the ability to recover from
any of the present difficulties with
out trouble to anyone. He also urged
a great attention to the affairs of
the association and a clear and com
plete monthly statement that could
be inspected by every stockholder
when they so desired, and have this
report always available at the offce
ot the secretary, a well kept and bal
anced cash book and the most up to
date methods of conducting the af
fairs of the corporation that would.
guarantee It being always In such,
shape that a complete and speedy
audit could be made of. the hooks at j
any time, also he commended the
work of Mr. Hart and the banking
bureau of the state.
The remarks of Mr. Gering so im
pressed everyone that a committee
was appointed to draw up a resolu
tion expressing confidence in the of
ficers and to provide for carrying on
the business of the association and
the improvement of the manner of
conducting the affairs of the office
I of the secretary. Mr. Gering, Val
Burkle and TV. R. Holmes were nam
ed as the committee and prepared
the resolution that placed the Liv
ingston Loan & Building association
back in the ranks of the thriving
financial institutions of the state.
A number of needed reforms in
the way of conducting the affairs
were made by C. E. Whittaker, in
which he urged more frequent audits
of the books and the elimination
of the habit of giving the secretary
proxies at the meetings of the stock-
holders
This last was explained by
Mr. Hart as the outgrowth of the
lack of interest of the stockholders
in the yearly meetings that made the
proxies necessary to secure a quor-
um. and he urged that everyone get
out and attend the yearly meeting
when the directors are elected.
The state department head also
explained that the directors would
name the secretary of the association
at
their meeting to succeed Mr.
Fricke.
The meeting closed with everyone
feeling much more assured and the
clouds that have hovered over the
old time building institution of the
city seem to have been dissipated
and the association will now be able
to forge ahead again as one of the
best and safest investments in the
city.

This morning when the prelimi
nary hearing in the case wherein the

both parties to the action, laid the
matter over until June 10th at 10
o'clock a. m.
William DelesDernier, appointed
by the county commissioners as the
special judge to bear the case, was
present but as his bond has not as
yet been approved by the board, he
was unable to serve, which also ad
ded to the necessity of postponement
of the cause of action.

Rosencrans and John F. Wehrbein.
and duly approved by the court, to
cover the time until the hearing of

PULL OFF BOLD
ROBBERY AT NEB.

Two Men Loot Jewelry Stcre

City This Morning.
of
From Thursdays Daily.
This morning one of the boldest
robberies in the historyof Nebras
ka City was pulled off at the jewel
ry store of Charles F. Foley, which is
situated on Central avenue across
the street from the Grand hotel and
the Otoe county court house.
Shortly after 9 o'clock two men,
described as being apparently young
in years and dressed very ordinar
ily, entered the store and engaged
the employes of the store in con
versation for a few moments and
suddenly gave the command for
them to stick up their hands. The
two men who were in the store at
the time were marched by the rob
bers into a toilet room and the door
locked as well as nailed up so as to
prevent the escape of the employes.
The robbers then very leisurely
searched over the stock, picking out
the best of the watches and diamonds
and other valuable jewelry and
which will amount to several thou
sand dollars when it is possible to
fully check up the stock of the store.
The robbers had locked the front
door of the store and calmly went
about their work of looting the stock
and when ready made their escape
by a rear door and entered a Dodge
car that was standing near the al
leyway and made their escape. As
soon as the robbery was discovered
the authorities started the attempt
to prevtnt the escape of the robbers
and the news of the robbery was
sent to all sections of the state. Sher
iff Quinton had men armed with
sawed off shotguns at the Platte riv
er bridge and the ferry here but
the robbers failed to pass this way.
A message from Ashland at 11:30
this morning stated that two men
answering the description of the
men had crossed the Platte river
bridge at that point, headed in the
direction of Omaha.

just one of us, for so she makes us
feel.
"I am sure she feels that this is
as it should be and she wishes it to
be, even tho we forget what she
means to the outside world.
"It is not our wish to be counted

the work of those in our midst, who
are doing things worth while, and
then come forward with expressions
of appreciation when it is too late

and tell him so.'
