VICTORY FOR THE CREDITORS

Judge Macy of tho district court yester
day morning overruled tho demurrer to
tho application of J. JJ. Atkins and fifty
other creditors of tho defunct Officer fit
Pusey hank, that their claims against tho
bank ho established against the estate of
the late Thomas Officer, although not filed
against the. estate within tho time pro
scribed by law. Tho claims of tho creditors
represented in tho npplitntlon amount to
$35,000.
Whllo only tho demurrer was ruled on
by tho court and tho application Itself
still remains to hn heard, tho decision of
Judgo Macy Is regarded as n dcclslvo vic
tory for thoso creditors of the bank who
failed to fllo within tho six months pro
scribed by law their claims also against the
estate of Thomas Officer. Tho contention
of tho applicants Is that their claims, hav
ing bcon duly filed against tho receivers
of tho defunct banking Institution and
having been passed on nnd npproved by
tho court, was sulllclcnt establishment of
tho claims against the estate of Thomau
Officer, tho senior member of the llrm.
which was liable for th debts of the bank
ing partnership.
In passing upon the case Judge Macy
was under the Impression that his de
cision was to bo upon the application of
tho petitioning creditors Itself nnd ho read
a written opinion, In which he held that
Inasmuch ns the receivers of the haul;
had been appointed upon the application
of Charles T. Officer, administrator of the
estate of Thomas officer, the administrator
was consequently a party to the receiver
ship nnd would be bound by doing In thai
case. Further, that claims filed and al
lowed against tho receivers of the Officer
& Pusey bank should he established against
tho Thomas Officer cstato ns claims of the
third class, but that such action would
be taken only upon the application of the
claimants. This means that each creditor
of tho hank who failed to flic his or her
claim against the estate of Thomas Officer
will have to make application In order to
KCt t established now against the estate.
After ho had rend this opinion the at
tention of Judgo Macy was called to the
fact that tho hearing had been on the do
murrer only and he withdrew the opinion
nnd overruled the demurrer.
ASIUSIMir.VI'.S.
The Intense feeling of the Uu?Man pcoplo
for tho requirements of social position, nnd
their subservience to the law of caste. Is
finally exemplified, according to all ac
counts. In the Husso-Slberlan plav. "For
Her Sake." which will be seen at tho
Dohany theater, Tuesday October 1. The
heroine of tho play Is a serf girl.
Tho serfs were formally manumitted In
lRfil, tho Russian slaves becoming free a
short time before tho black slaves of the
United States were freed by Lincoln: but
It wan a long tlmo before tho Russian
peasants ceased to bo sjnvos, or serfs; In
fac;-( olga the serf girl of the play In ques
tton, has been brought up in the household
of a nnblo Russlnn family, nnd the sou
of tho house, n prince of the blood, lino
fallen In lovo with her. Opposition to tin
match Is mado by his mother, tho princes.;.
and tho plot Is further complicated by the
machinations of a Russlnn secret service
agent who Is at tho same time a nihilist,
nnd who is nn horcdltnry enemy of the
princess' family. Ho weaves about th?
young prlnco a plot that results in send
ing him, ns well as tho serf girl, to Si
beria, and thcro Is a dramatic scene In one
of tho Siberian mines, Tho production as
a whole bears the mark of liberal and in
telligent management, and the fact that It
Is to ho presented hero nt popular prices
will doubtless Insure It a welcome from
a crowd that will test tho capacity of Mali
nger Stevenson's theater.
The attraction for tonight at the Dolmnv
theater Is "Quo Vadls." The following Is
what tho Nashua, (N, II.) Telegraph, says
concerning the play: "Can a sermon bo
preached or, If you please, acted, from tho
stage? After witnessing last evening's
performancn of "Quo Vndls" one must In
truth unhesitatingly nnswer "Yes." No
one could have attended this remarkable)
play without having been benefited nnd up
lifted by It. So reverently vstcd nnd so
skillfully handled was It that tho recital
of tho Lord's prayer by the aged Apobtlo
Poter could have brought no offence to
thoso who hold religion as dear and sacred.

Cents a Uuy.
CHICAflO. Sept. 28. Aftor an all-night
session the operntlng employes of tho South
Side Rlovated railroad (tho Alley L) struck
at 5 o'clock this morning becnuso of tho
refusal of the company to grant n horizon
tal lncrcaso of 25 cents per man for a ten
hour day. The decision to strike camo after
a lommittcc had failed to secure any satis
factory response to nn ultimatum sent to
President Lesllo Cnrter's homo nt 3 o'clock
this morning. Over 200 men aro out. Tho
road, however, Is not tied up, for as soon
ns the strike notice, had been given the
company pressed Into service all tho avail
able man thoy could get hold of and many
trains aro now running.
Tho atiiko Is tho first ln tho history of
Chicago's elevated roads.
President William Tlmmons of tho ele
vated trainmen's union said that today the
whole road would ho tied up. Tho strikers
clnlm that out of tho totnl forco of 282
operatives nil but forty have struck. Iloth
strikers and road officials expect an early
4 c v.nv
. A,
conference that will settlo the present diffi
culties. President Lesllo Carter of tho road mado
the following statement:
"About 250 men aro directly or Indirectly
affected by tho strike. Tho motormen did
not go out, nor did tho yardmen. About
175 guards aro rcgulnrly employed by tho
company; we cannot toll how many of them
went on strike until all the night reports
are In. Tho trains aro now running on n
schedule of four mlutcs."
The union men declare that should tho
road succeed ln operating with non-union
men, present employes of tho Metropolitan
and Northwestern elevated lines nnd the
union loop will Join In tho movo for hotter
conditions.
Tho "Elevated" employes organized about
ten dnyc ago. In preparation for tho strike.
This afternoon President Carter and rep
resentatives of tho strikers held a brief
conference. Mr. Carter stated that ho had
offered a 10 per cent ralso to all tho men
on tho road. Tho strikers nro said to bo
looking with favor on ncceptlng this prop
osltlon nnd It Is thought probable that by
night the Btrlke will bo declared off otn.
daily. Trains wcro Btlll running with but
