j
The injunction is believed to be the
outcome of a secret meting held by
a group of 13 state bankers here Sun
day. These bankers protested the sale |
of the collateral of the Holdrege bank. j
claiming that the price would be
lower than if the various items were
offered separately, hence resulting in j
a loss to the state guaranty fund.
A group of bankers endeavored to j
get an injunction Monday afternoon |
in district court, to prevent the sale'
but were refused by Judge Fitzgerald, j
according to President Schantz.
Says Order l nnecesaary.
Commenting on the proposed sale. :
I<\ H. (Aiins. a director in the Oma
ha bank and attorney for it, said: |
"This is the usual method of reaiiz- j
ing on collateral and the State bank ]
of Omaha, gave an unusual time in ]
order that there should be plenty of j
opporlunity for various bankers in I
the state to attend the sale and pur
chase the notes offered.
"If Mr. Hart or the bunking de- ;
pnrtment or the men In charge at j
the llohirege hank had written or,
requested in any way that the sai« ;
to. postponed or continued to a late, i
date, such a request would hat e
been granted. There was not the ;
slightest necessity to commence suit
In the supreme court to enjoin ths i
sale."
