The decision of the supreme court In the
case of Wyman. receiver for the Nebraska
riro Insurance comimy , against Joel Eaton
and others , handed .lown las' Vilday , is of
considerable Importance , as there are a num
ber of persons In this city affected by it.
The action was brought by A. U. Wyman ,
receiver of the defunct Nebraska Fire In
surance company , the defendants being
stockholders therein. Ho sought to enforce
gnlnst their constitutional liability under
the laws of Nebraska for their uryiald sub-
ecrlptlons to the capital stock In order to
secure funds with which to pay the liabili
ties of the defunct concern. The defendants ,
among other things , held that they were not
liable on the ground that the receiver had
not yet exhausted all of the other assets
of the company. The question at issue was
whether under these circumstances the re
ceiver could bring tbo action on the unpaid
subscriptions. The district court judge be
fore whom the case was tried held that he
could not and the decision ot the supreme
bench sustains the loner court.

IIARDIN MAKES A DEMAND
Assessor of Kane Township Springs a Sur

WANTS A BOOK SHOWING LANDS AND LOTS
( MilclnIn Cntitonil tlint to Comply with
Ituiitipftt Won hi lti-iiilre | an I2x-
lieiiillliirc of n I.urge Sum
til .Mono ) .
W. D. Hardln of thin city , assessor for
Kane township , has midc a demand on
County Auditor Innca , asking that ho fur
nish a plat book showing the division of
lands and lots and each subdivision or
pirt thereof , together with the name of the
on nor. the number of acres contained , etc.
Section 1361 of the new codn provides tint
'The county auditor shall furnish to each
assessor a plat book on which shall bo plat
ted the lands and lots in his assessment
district , showing on each subdivision or part
thereof , written In ink or pencil , the name
of the owner , the number of acres or the
boundary lines and distances In each and
showing as to each tract the number of
icrcs to bo deducted for railway right of
way or roads. "
This demand on the part of Assessor Har
dln , which was contained In the following-
communication filed with the county au
ditor a couple of weeks ago , for some reason
was not made public at the time :
To the Board of Supervisors of Pottawat-
tamlo County , Iowa , and to H. V. Innes ,
County Auditor- Gentlemen I wish to be
gin my assessment work and ask that vou
furnish mo at once a plat book , on which
shall bo platted the lands and lots In iny
afcsrssmciit district , showing each subdivi
sion or part thereof , written In Ink or pen
cil , the name of the owner , the number
of ntre9 or the boundary lines and dis
tances In each , showing as to each tiact
the number of acres to be deducted for
railway light of way and for roads , ns re-
qulrfd by section 13G1 of the code of Iowa.
The board took little or no notice of this
demand , as It was practically Impossible
to grant It.
Tor the last two > ears there has been
trouble between the supervisors and As
sessor Hardln , on Ing to the fact that they
declined to allow him In full the bills that
ho presented for making the assessment of
this township. This action on the' ' part of
Hardln is regarded by the supervisors as
simply a scheme to compel the board to
Increase his salary.
After the board adjourned Saturday aft
ernoon , Hardln presented each of the mem-
ben with a copy of the follow Ins communi
cation.
COUNCIL BLUFFS , la. , Jan. 21. To the
Members of the Board of Supervisors of Pot-
taw attain to Couuty , Iowa , and to R. V. ic-
nes. County Auditor : Gentlemen On Janu
ary C , and while the board was In session ,
I served a written notice onudltor Innes ,
asking him as such officer to furnish me , an
assessor of Kane township , In said county ,
n plat book , ns required under section 13M
of the code of Iowa.
Up to this date and jour present mect-
Inc ; he has failed to furnish ma suth plat
look , without which I caunot rroceed with
the assessment In said toiwnshin , as le-
( iuied ! by law , and unle&s the snn.e Is fur
nished nt once or some arrangement made
with me , covering the addltloml test of
making such assessment without such plat
bonk , I hereby notify jou that I shall not
proceed to make such assessment and shall
R. V. Innes
hold you a * such board and said
as such auditor , to hold me free , clear ana 1
haimless from the fines nnd penalties Im
posed by the statutes of lew a for failure
ns such assessor to make such assessment
nt the time and In the manner specified and
required to be made under the provlMons of
the law , together with such other additional
pecuniary damages as I shall sustain by
reaton of such default. W. D. HAUDIN.
Assessor of Kane Township , Pottan.ittamio
County , Iowa.
The supervisors realize that Hardin's re
quest places them in a peculiarly embar
rassing position as he undoubtedly has the
aw at his back. While the law provides
.hat the assessors shall be furnished with
the plats such as Hardln asks for , It Is
iractlcally Impossible for the auditor or the
joard to furnish him now with one within
such time ns would make it available for
use In maklns the assessment this year.
The plats in the county auditor's office
linvo not been kept corrected to date , and
Lho work of preparing such a plat book as
contemplated by the statute and the request
of Assessor Hardln would take nearly
year. Therefore it will be seen that It is a
physical Impossibility for the board to com-
: > ly with Hardln's demand and the only way
that the supervisors will be able to get out
of the difficulty will probably be to cffecl
some compromise with him. This is whai
the supervisors say Is the real Intent of
Hardln's demand. Supervisor Matthews
when soon stated that plat books are film
Ishcd to each of the assessors throughout the
county , except In Council Bluffs. The
assessor for Kane township has never hni
11 plat book , such as Is non * provided for
under the nen Ian , and the county cannot
furnish one. What action the board would
bo likely to take he cannot say , but supposes
some arrangement will bo made for making
the assessment at the adjourned meeting o
the board , February 1.

Smallpox Sen re.
Residents in the neighborhood of Twenty-
fifth street and Avenue H are again up in
arms over the case of Mrs. Harris , who Is
reported to have nursed a patient suffering
with smallpox at Hamburg. They com
plained to the police jesterday nnd demand
that the house In which Mrs. Harris lives bo
quarantined at once. They were much
alarmed and threatened to do Mrs. Harris
personal Injury If she attempted to leave
the house. It appears that Mrs. Harris re
turned from Hamburg last Friday evening ,
but the fact of her return only became
known to the neighbors jesterday. Towards
the end of December a similar complaint
was made about Mrs. Harris but on In
vestigation at that time by Chief of Police
Blxby It was found that Mrs. Harris was
not at home but was In Hamburg. Chief !
Blxby wrote to the authorities at Ham
burg , and from them learned that Mrs. Har
ris was there and was nursing a smallpox
patient. Last evening an officer was sent to
Mrs. Harris' home and she was warned not
to leave her house until the matter had
been passed upon by the Board of Health.
A meeting of the Do-ml of Health will , it
is expected , bo called for this morning to
take some action In the matter.

The action of the State Hoard of Control
at DCS Molnes Saturday In Issuing the order
that no Insane patients shall be removed

ber of the county pitlents. Superintendent
Wltto of the State asylum at Clarlnda ob
jected at the tlmo to the action ot the com

STATUE FORLONGFELLOW
IVoule of the ITnltPd Slate * Will
Crret a Memorial to the
Popular 1'oet.
WASHINGTON , Jan. 22. The executive
committee of the Longfellow Memorial as
sociation , formed for the purpose of
erecting a statue of the poet in
Washington , has issued an appeal
to the public for subscriptions to accomplish
this purpose. The committee estimates that
$3C,000 will bo needed to procure a statue
worthy of the poet and the site. The
smallest contributions will bo welcomed
As almost every American homo where the
inmates love good literature , says the appeal ,
contains a copy of Longfellow's poems , It
Is hoped that the response may be both
prompt and generous.
The Illggs National bank of Washington
has consented to act as financial agent of
the memorial astoclatlon and checks may be
made pa } able to it. Alexander Mnckny-
Smlth , chairman , and General Adolphus W.
Greelej , secretary , ou behalf of the executive
committee , sign the appeal in the course ol
which they say :
"It bas been thought by many competent
Judges that a statue of Longfellow placed
here would bo a fitting tribute , both to his
fame and to the distinction which he con
ferred upon American letters. It Is a grave
reproach to us that while England has been
quick to recognize his eminence by placing
his bust in Westminster Abbey , our onn
people ha\o as yet done little to testlfj the
alTcUlon and pride with which millions re
gard one who is beyond all others the poet
of the American home and fireside. "
The president Is an honorary regent of the
association , Chief Justice Puller Is president ,
while Secretary Hay , Senators Hoar and
AVolcott. Speaker Reed and many other
prominent men are associated with the
movement.
