Liimcoln for $11,299.19 amid S. H. Mallory for
l5,5lS.95 , insofar as they are sought to be
declared liens upomi time $70,000 balance in
the hands of the receiver , but finds that timey
imimould be filed in the probate court of Lancaster -
caster county against time Fitzgerald estate
and allowed , If at all , by time court. As to
time claim of Attorney J. M. Woolworth of
Omaha , amounting to $6,851.25 , based on
irotessional services alleged to have been
rendered during time year 1895 , tIme referee
says that the $70,000 now in time receiver's
hands Is a fund to pay a particular Judgment ,
and declares that time claimant rendered no
service In procuring time jmmdgmcnt thl fund
S designed to pay , as he was neIther attorney -
tornoy nor counse' for John FItzgerald In time
case in which this judgmemit was remmdered
in time circuit court on December 5 , 1S89. For
this reason the referee refuses to burden
ths ! particular fund witim a lien for profes-
zlonai services rendered in 1895 at the request -
quest of Mary Fitzgerald and Deweeso &
Hall , nor loen lie allow the claim of J. J.
Burns for $15,000 , the petition for which fails
to set , up a date upon which the services
were rendered , This claim is also demmied
by the First National bank of Lincoln. Time
U. D. McCoy claim far $500 0mm a Jmmdgmemit
obtained in the district court of Lucas
county , Iowa , 1mm 1890 , is presumed dormsumt ,
no comnpetont testimony appearing to the
contrary. Deweese & Hail's bill for insti-
toting and carrying on timi suit is made an
attorney's ien on the $70,000 fund to the
tumne of $10,000 , dating fromn April 6 , 1895.
Finally time action of the probate court is
affirmed in ailoivng Mary Fitzgerald to sell
the judgment to time First National bank of
this city and time bank's jmmdgmont is bur-
demmed only by time aforesa'd attorney's liemi
of leweese & Hall , and furtimer time judgment
is declared a first lien on time moneys in the
hands of time receivers of time Fitzgerald &
