UNION TRUST COMPANY FAILS, Trouble Attributed to it Belng Confused with Another Embarrassed Concern. Sroux Crry, June 28, —[Special Telegram to Tur Bre.|—E. M.

Act- ing on the prayer of the petition, James Doughty, attorney. was appointed and at once qualified under a £20.000 hond, with George H. Howell and Abel Anderson as sureties on the bond. The Union Trust com- pany was incorporated in Sioux City, and this place is its corporation headquarters. Its business headquarters are in Kuansas City, to which place 1t removed some time 8go. %ho petition recites that the failure is due to the fact that reports have been circulated throughout the country confusing it with the Union Loan and Trust company, which failed some time ago and that these reports have alarmed the company’s creditors, who threaten to institute attachment proceed- ings against 1t. It is stated thatsuch pro- ceedings would ruin the assets of the com- pany and prevent its creditors from realizing the full amount of their claims, whereas, it is stated, that under the management of a receiver, the obligations, some of which are now past due, can be fully satistied from the assets. Mr. Donaldson states in his petition that he is the owner of 880 shares of the stock of the company and that the company owes him $60,000. The petition states that the nssets consist (4 worth of bank and other stoc ,083 worth of lands, mortgages, etc., while the liabilities, ma- tured and contingent, are about £50,000. Of the assets but $15,000 worth will pass into the hands of the receiver, for the remainder have been put up as collateral to secure the liabilities of the company. The ofticers of the company Hosmer of Manchcster, N C. Gates, Ladora, [ o president; Joseph H. Roy, Ka s City, second vice president, and . E. Eldridge’ secretary and treasurer.

The ofticers and directors of the Omaha club held a meeting last night and decided to dispense with the grill room until Octe- ber 1. It was also decided that all the mem- bers who coutributed $100 to the fund for the now building shoutd be allowed to propose a friend for membership, who was to bo ad- mitted without initiation fee as a matter of courtesy. It is estimatod that this will in- crease the membership about 100, = There i now 300 members om the roll, but many are in arrearsand lately that section of the by-laws governing members who are behind in their dues has not been en- forced. From now on this law will be enforced, and all those who are in and make no response to oficial no- s sent them will be dropped from the membership list. ‘I'he members of the club have no intention of disbanding or losing prestige, and expect to get into their new building in January, 1804, This will cost them #$130,000, and then they expect to enlarge their membarship. The initiation fee now is 100 with 360 dues per annum for resident members and §10 initiation and $30 dues for nouresidonts. At the meeting last night it was decided to cut down expenses and begin a system of retrenchment duri the summer season.
