Prick Hold There Was Consideration in Ex ¬ ecution of Paper Joseph Nelson who was cashier of the Utah National bank at the time when 106360 was stolen from the re ¬ serve chest of the bank In the winter- of 19071908 must pay the note of 13250 which he executed after the theft was discovered and which with 60000 cash contributed by President W S McCornick for the i same pur ¬ pose was delivered to the bank in or- der ¬ to protect the institution This in effect is the decision hand ¬ ed down by the supreme court yester- day ¬ in an opinion written by Justice AV M McCarty Justice J E Frick- in a separate opinion concurs and Chief Justice D K Stratip dissents As set forth in Justice McCartys opinion confirming the decision of the lower court the substance of the case is as follows January 12 1908 it was discovered that 106250 was missing from the vaults of the bank W S McCornick president of the bank owned 1000 shares of the banks stock and Joseph Nelson owned fifty shares Soon after the loss was discovered Nelson and McCornick held conferences over the matter in which they agreed that un- less ¬ they took immediate and secret action to replace the money so as to bring the reserve fund up to the legal requirement before the books could- be examined by the national bank ex ¬ aminer the comptroller of currency would close the bank and if the public became aware of the condition it would result in a run on the bank They decided that it must be kept se- cret ¬ from the directors and stockhold- ers ¬ as well Xclson Gives Note Mr McCornick insisted that Nelson should put up 13250 and he agreed- to put up 50000 to make up the de- ficiency ¬ in the reserve fund and these sums with 43000 from the surplus fund of the bank would make up the 10650 T R Cutler vice president- of the bank was called in as arbi- trator ¬ and he decided that in caSf the thief was discovered and the money restored to the bank Nelson should have onehalf of his 13250 betore McCornick received any portion of his 50000 The note irivan ny Nelson provided for payment In thirty days with interest at 6 per cent and 10 per cent additional in case the note was collected through an attorney Nelson rofused to pay the note claiming that he had received no con- sideration ¬ or service of value for the money Suit was brought by the Utah National bank for collection and the trial in the district court before Judge George G Armstrong resulted in a i verdict for the bank Nelson there- upon ¬ appealed to the supreme court Consideration is Shown Justice McCarty holds that inas ¬ much as the payment of 5000 by McCornick and 13250 by Nelson saved the bank from probable ruin and added to the value of the stock held by both the president and cashier of the bank this constituted a consid- eration ¬ for the note given by Nelson- He also expresses the opinion that the note Itself is prIma facie evidence that it has been given for a consider- ation ¬ Justice McCarty also holds that the 632KO advanced by McCornick and Nelson to cover up the theft was ad- vanced ¬ with the understanding that it should be repaid tit them by the bank only In case the stolen money was re- covered ¬ or the stockholders volun- tarily ¬ decided to reimburse them Con- cerning ¬ Nelsons liability for the theft Justice McCarty says that the condi ¬ tion on which Nelson executed the note was that of a compromise for his liability to the bank for at least a part qf the money stolen Part of Assets Justice Frick in concurring says the amounts agreed to be paid by Mc ¬ Cornick and Nelson were to be a part of the banks assets and by the pay- ment ¬ the banks assets were made good and they accomplished what they intended to accomplish in pre- venting ¬ the failure of the bank Chief Justice Straup in dissenting says Appellant urges that the ulti ¬ mate fact of consideration was not found and that the evidence is insuf ¬ ficient to show a good or valuable consideration I think the appellant is entitled to prevail in both conten ¬ tions calling attention to the fact that the very thing on which McCor ¬ nick and Nelson disagreed was the manner in which their payments would be refunded either when the 106250 was recovered or the stock ¬ holders of the bank were induced to make the 63250 good He said the payments were made simply to tide the bank over until the money was re- covered ¬ or the stockholders could be called together to refund the 63250 All the circumstances taken together- are inconsistent with and exclude the idea of a gift and at least show an implied promise of payment says the chief justice S CHANGES SURPRISE THIS FORMER UTAHN Joseph A McRae president of the Economy Mill Manufacturing com- pany ¬ of Independence Mo is in Salt Lake and will remain in the state for

oclock last night lasting for about half an hour during which time telephdne wires were tossed around and many telephones- put out of service for the rest of the night The storm was general through this part of the state and lines of the Bell Telephone company to Bingham Tooele and Garfield were down most of the night In Salt Lake about 300 telephones of the Bell and Independent lines were put out of service for sev- eral ¬ hours During the late afternoon clouds had been scudding across the skies giving warning of the approaching storm Shortly after 5 oclock the wind rose to a gale tearing signs from their moorings and ripping several awnings It Is estimated that the wind attained- a speed of something like forty miles an hour at Its height Toward the end of the windstorm rain fell In torrents though it did not last long From a temperature of 90 degrees at 2 oclock the thermometer fell rapidly in the afternoon at the approach of the storm reaching 69 degrees at 6 oclock or a fall of 21 degrees During the day the variation was 31 degrees as the minimum temperature early yes- terday ¬ morning was 59 degrees The rain in Salt Lake accompanied- by thunder and lightning was the only

unable to take any formal action upon matters discussed On Monday evening these things will be considered further and some action taken The committee was given to under ¬ stand that the games which are now in vogue at the playgrounds seem to lack in attraction for the boys It was sug ¬ gested that baseball and basketball and some gymnasium paraphernalia should- be provided for the lads It wab lur ther suggested by a member of the committee that the services of some university athlete should be secured for Saturday and Sunday afternoons to in ¬ stall the gymnasium features and sup ¬ ervise

Loitered Into Grave I While friends and Masonic brothers stood with bared heads about a grave In Mt Olivet cemetery yesterday aft ¬ ernoon winddriven rain beat furious ¬ t ly upon them and through the black clouds bright streaks of zizzag light ¬ ning painted Ute heavens livid Just at the conclusion of the Masonic burial ritual and as the body of Dr t Robert J Hyatt was being lowered Into its last resting place the sun struggled from behind the clouds which had hidden It for an hour and illuminated the western skies with gorgeous col ¬ ors especially where the dying rays struck the dark clouds or turned the dull hills to crimson And above it all shown a doublearch rainbow passing over the Wasatch mountains It was the last ceremony for Dr Hyatt for years local weather director and the clash of the elements vivid streaks of lightning heavy rolls of thunder driving rain furious winds lowhanging black clouds and at last the bright rays of the sun and crown Ing beauty of the rainbowpainted a

greater dispatch LOT SMITH HEROES ELIGIBLE TO P h A R Men Who Protected Mail Routes During Civil War Have Clean Records SPECIAL COURT FINDINGS- Slap at Survivors Rebuked in Report Just Signed by Thomas Lundy Department Commander Survivors of the Lot Smith company which served in the west during the civil war are eligible to membership In the G A R acordingr to the find ¬ ings of the special court of inquiry just made public This court was ap ¬ pointed shortly after the state G A R encampment In Salt Lake to inquire into the records of Charles Crisinon and H C Hulllnger who were dele gates to the encampment from O O Howard post Their seats in the convention were challenged on the ground that they were survivors of the Lot Smith com- pany ¬ which had borne arms against- the United States The findings are that these men have clean records and that all survivors of the Lot Smith company honorably discharged are eligible for membership as nothing is shown to prove that the Lot Smith company was ever hostile to the government Thomas Lundy of Ogden department commander has received the report of the court of inquiry which In effect shows that politics was played at the time of the encampment I I Charges Are Unfounded A full investigation into the records- of the two men and their surviving comrades shows that the charges were unfounded and that the Lot Smith vet- erans ¬ have an equal standing with any honorably discharged union soldier The court of inquiry consisted of W W Bostaph George A Black Wal- ter ¬ C Veazie S D Chase H F Snyder and E W Tatlock When the find ¬ ings of the court of Inquiry were com ¬ pleted the conclusions were sent to the commander in chief of the G A R for his signature The final signature- was received yesterday The findings of the court In brief are 1 That Crimson and Hullinger were members of the Lot Smith company of Utah cavalry 2 That the company- was enlisted upon a call from Presi- dent ¬ Lincoln April 28 1862 to protect the malls and other government prop- erty ¬ in Utah and Wyoming 3 That the men were sworn In April 30 1862 4 i That the men were at all times sub ¬ ject to the call of General Gregg of the Sixth Iowa cavalry 6 That the men were discharged from further ser- vice ¬ August 14 1862 6 That the two men were paid for their service in tha United States army 7 That Crimson and Hulllnger are at the present time pensioners of the United States 8 Tiiat crismon is now a memoer 01 mo National Soldiers home at Santa Mon- ica ¬ Cal 9 That neither said Charles Crismon nor H C Hullinger ever bore arms against the government of the United States May Discipline harris With the results of the findings of the court there may still be some of- ficial ¬ work for the department com- mander ¬ of Utah Since the assertions of Thomas Harris a member of the G A R of Utah have been found to be untrue and since the accusations- made by him was a slap at the Utah division of the G A R it may be that Harris wll be called to task by the members of the Utah division and lose his membership In that organiza- tion ¬ p TYPHOID ONLY BLOT ON CITYS HEALTH RECORD Typhoid fever Is the only cloud on the citys health

Dry Season Sheep Growers Will Have Good Stuff to Market- C B Stewart secretary of the Utah Wool Growers association returned yesterday from the Ulntah forest re ¬ serve where he has spent some time in

year Some of the men are shipping now but the greater part will not start shipping until Septem- ber ¬ 1 The old sheep are in good con ¬ dition and the lambs are in fine shape We have had no forest

far south range is also good In western Wyoming where a great num- ber ¬ of the Utah sheep men winter their sheep the range Is good but the eastern section is very bad Most of the sheep men in this

MUST PAY NOTEI

TO COVER THEFT

Joseph Nelson Former Cashier-of Utah National Loses

His Suit

SUPREME COURT RULING

Justices McCarty and Prick HoldThere Was Consideration in Ex ¬

ecution of Paper

Joseph Nelson who was cashier ofthe Utah National bank at the timewhen 106360 was stolen from the re¬

serve chest of the bank In the winter-of 19071908 must pay the note of13250 which he executed after the

theft was discovered and which with60000 cash contributed by President

W S McCornick for the i same pur ¬

pose was delivered to the bank in or-der

¬

to protect the institutionThis in effect is the decision hand ¬

ed down by the supreme court yester-day

¬

in an opinion written by JusticeAV M McCarty Justice J E Frick-in a separate opinion concurs andChief Justice D K Stratip dissents

As set forth in Justice McCartysopinion confirming the decision of thelower court the substance of the caseis as follows

January 12 1908 it was discoveredthat 106250 was missing from thevaults of the bank W S McCornickpresident of the bank owned 1000shares of the banks stock and JosephNelson owned fifty shares Soon afterthe loss was discovered Nelson andMcCornick held conferences over thematter in which they agreed that un-less

¬

they took immediate and secretaction to replace the money so as tobring the reserve fund up to the legalrequirement before the books could-be examined by the national bank ex¬

aminer the comptroller of currencywould close the bank and if the publicbecame aware of the condition itwould result in a run on the bankThey decided that it must be kept se-cret

¬

from the directors and stockhold-ers

¬

as wellXclson Gives Note

Mr McCornick insisted that Nelsonshould put up 13250 and he agreed-to put up 50000 to make up the de-ficiency

¬

in the reserve fund and thesesums with 43000 from the surplusfund of the bank would make up the10650 T R Cutler vice president-

of the bank was called in as arbi-trator

¬

and he decided that in caSf thethief was discovered and the moneyrestored to the bank Nelson shouldhave onehalf of his 13250 betoreMcCornick received any portion of his

50000 The note irivan ny Nelsonprovided for payment In thirty dayswith interest at 6 per cent and 10 percent additional in case the note wascollected through an attorney

Nelson rofused to pay the noteclaiming that he had received no con-sideration

¬

or service of value for themoney Suit was brought by the UtahNational bank for collection and thetrial in the district court before JudgeGeorge G Armstrong resulted in a i

verdict for the bank Nelson there-upon

¬

appealed to the supreme courtConsideration is Shown

Justice McCarty holds that inas¬

much as the payment of 5000 byMcCornick and 13250 by Nelsonsaved the bank from probable ruinand added to the value of the stockheld by both the president and cashierof the bank this constituted a consid-eration

¬

for the note given by Nelson-He also expresses the opinion that

the note Itself is prIma facie evidencethat it has been given for a consider-ation

¬

Justice McCarty also holds that the632KO advanced by McCornick and

Nelson to cover up the theft was ad-vanced

¬

with the understanding that itshould be repaid tit them by the bankonly In case the stolen money was re-

covered¬

or the stockholders volun-tarily

¬

decided to reimburse them Con-cerning

¬

Nelsons liability for the theftJustice McCarty says that the condi ¬

tion on which Nelson executed thenote was that of a compromise for hisliability to the bank for at least a partqf the money stolen

Part of AssetsJustice Frick in concurring says

the amounts agreed to be paid by Mc ¬

Cornick and Nelson were to be a partof the banks assets and by the pay-ment

¬

the banks assets were madegood and they accomplished whatthey intended to accomplish in pre-venting

¬

the failure of the bankChief Justice Straup in dissenting

says Appellant urges that the ulti ¬

mate fact of consideration was notfound and that the evidence is insuf ¬

ficient to show a good or valuableconsideration I think the appellantis entitled to prevail in both conten ¬

tions calling attention to the factthat the very thing on which McCor ¬

nick and Nelson disagreed was themanner in which their paymentswould be refunded either when the106250 was recovered or the stock ¬

holders of the bank were induced tomake the 63250 good He said thepayments were made simply to tidethe bank over until the money was re-

covered¬

or the stockholders could becalled together to refund the 63250

All the circumstances taken together-are inconsistent with and exclude theidea of a gift and at least show animplied promise of payment saysthe chief justice
