The change which was mentioned in T Ber: a day or two ago in the management of the Grand hotel has not yet been made, owing to the excellenco of N. W, Taylor's staying qualities, and just now there seems 1o be some uncertainty as to when it will be made. C. R. Hannin, receiver of the Kimball-Champ Investment company, sent word to Mr. Taylor on Monday that he had loused the hotel to G. W. Clark of Denver, and that he would bo expected to hand over the keys to the new proprietur at once. Mr. Taylor did not see fit to do so, and yesterday the district court was called upon to inter- fere. An order was issued by Judge Smith, requiring Taylor to leave in_ three days, or stand tho conscquences, which were painted in the usual graphic colors of a court docu- ment. Mr. Taylor now states that he does not believo that an order of tho courts amounts to any more than an order of o pri- vato citizen, and he may pay sono aitention 101, and then azain he may not. In talking about tho matter he is v backward about saying anything as to his legal grounds for holding on to the place, but he has consulted un attornoy, who advises him to take the stand he In tho course of a few days, when the order of the court has had time to get in its work, something interesting may tako In the meantime Me. Clark is on the ground ready to take the management of tho hotel just as soon as the receiver can get rid of the man who now bolds down the oftice chair.

Croan, principal of the Shen- andoah Normal school, arrived iu the city yesierday morning, and was met by tho members of the committee appointed by the Board of Trade to entertain him and talk business during his stay here. He was taken for a ride about the city, and was shown a number of sites for the school, among others the place known ts Bock's garden, on Upper Broadway, and the Jeffries land east of the city, being selected by the committee as de- sirable locations. =1 Mr. Croan could not express any opinion as to whero the school would finally go, The peoplo of Shenandoah are very anxious to keep it where it is, us 1t 15 about all the town has to keep, and & strong fight will undount- edly be made agamst its removal. Prof. Croan, however, believes that the growth of the school is hindered to a certain extent by its being located in so small a town, and he is willing, provided the necessary urrange- ments can ‘Je made, to strike out for a new field. He will be in the city again on Thurs- day, when another conference wiil be held.

Wallace, attornoy for ex-City Treasurar William Peake, who is bewg tried in the minal court on the charge of embezzling 5,000 of the city’'s money. Mr. Wallace uid the dofense proposed to show that tho city treasury was robbed by the clorks in the office, all of whom had been in the habit of gambling. When Mr. Peake necded mouey on his salary acgount he would take it from the cash drawer and substitute a ticket. The deferse would show that these tickets had been raised from small to great amounts. For instance, one ticket for §25 had been raised to $725, and the defense would show who had 80 raised the tckets. All the clerks had frequentod a well known gambling resort during their ployment in the city treasurer’s offive, Wh they needed money they would abstract it from the cash drawer and add the amount stolen to one of the civy treasurer’s tickets, The evidence of the defense today was con- fined to the proof that Mr. Peake's character was gooll.
