THE OMAHA DAILY RESTRAINED THE RECEIVER Trouble in Paying the First Dividend of the Defunct Capital National, ANOTHER CLASS OF CREDITORS OBJECT Xoldors of Charley Mosher's Fraudulent Western Manafacturing Company Note Seoure Order Restraining the Reeolver from Making 'ayments. Lixcor.s, Aug. 20.—[Special to Tur Be: The depositors of the Capital National bank are again in trouble. When the recent an- | nouncement was made that the receiver was about to paya 10 per cent dividend on proved olaims to those holding receiver's certifi- cates many thought the news too good to be true. From present indications their fears were well founded. The checks calling for the disbursement of some 50,000 among the depositors were received yesterday, and the payment thereon began today to all who called and presented their receiver's certifi- cates. Late this afternoon, however, the Coldwater National bank of Coldwater, Mich., stovped the payment by securing an order from Judge Strode restraining Ro- celver Hnyden from paying out any move. Argument on the matter was set for Friday next, and until that time depositors will be compelled to indulge in some further perspiratory exercise, The Michigan bank holds two of the Western Manufacturing company _notes, bearing the brand of the Mosher-Hurlbut manufacture, calling for £,000 each, and it claims that they should be paid out of the asscts of the bank. These notes, it will be remembered. were made payable to the de- funct bank, and after being endorsed by Mosher as president of the Capital National, were sold to the Michigan institution. The Teceiver rofused to consider them as a claim ou the bank assets, asserting.that they were frauduletly manufactured, that the Capital National had never discounted the same, that they never formed any partof the as- sets of the bank, nor did it receive any money from the Coldwater bank when the same were alleged to have been sold to it. The point involved is a nice legal one, and as he fraudulent 18sue amounts to some £150,- 000 the decision 1s of great intorest to the depositors. 1f the court holds them to be valid claims against the bank’s assets it re- duces tho proceeds of the depositors to that extent, Despite the injunction of the court, Receiver Hayden is going right ahead and ing out the checks, and is holding open this evening for the purpose of paying whoever calls properly equipped. To a Be: reporter Mr. Hayden stated that the injunc- tion was not very sweeping in its terms, but he had announced that ho would pay' the dividend, and he was geng to do it if he went to jail for it. It is probable, however, that he relies on the advice of counsel that the local district court has no jurisdiction over United States officials, and” cannot re- strain them from doing an act under the federal laws. Bishop Bonaoum's Troublos. Although shrouded in great sec velops that the peti:ion of the Catholic laity asking Mer. Satolli for an immediate trial in the case of Bishop Bonacum, announced in TuE B some time since as having been in circulation here, has finally been forwarded to the papal delegate at Washington. The etition is suid to contain tho signatures of alf a hundred of the leading members of the church in this city and_diocese, although no action thercon is anticipated for'some months under the rules of the churcn, which takes its time to such matters. Owing to the strict secrecy maintained it was impossible 10 secure the charges embraced therein, but it is understood 10 be a rehash in part of the charges of tyranny, oppression and financial profligacy contained in the charges preferred by the priests at the recent meeting with Satolli in Omaha, together with other events Y district, it do- that have transpir since. It sots forth as the opinion of the signers that tho best intcrests of the church will be conserved by his removal to another field, and that the conmstant turmoil m which the diocese has been thrown for the past year or more has done great damage to the interests of the church, No Satistaction Secured. The councilmanic committee that went up to Omaha yesterday to- interview the rail- rona ofticials on the probability of their Torking over the money 1 ity to pay the abutting damages m connection with the wew viaduct and thus allow the work to proceed, roturned today, but received little satisfaction- The members found the Burlington ready to put up its four-sevenths, but the Union Pacitic deferred an answer until the future. Attorney Kelly of the legal department of that road stated that they had received instructions from the Boston division to pay out no more mouey on any western improvements, and although the facts had been laid before them and im- mediate and favorablo action taken, nothing has yet been heard of it Ntate H o of Itoss R.

Ankaxsas Crry, Kan., Aug. 20.—Yosterday B.S. Barnes telographed Secretary Smith asking if sottlers would b allowed to make the run _from the Chilocco, Osage and Ponea reservations. This morning ho received a telogram from 8. A. Lamoraix, register of the goneral land oMce, which scttles the question of points from which the run can legaly bo made. The Indian reservations of the Poncas and Otoes are all parts of the Cherokoo Strip and many people had made proparations to make the run from their boundaries, . The south boundary of the Otoe reservation is only two miles from the county seat and land office between Perry and Wharton, and hundreds of Guthrie men intended going to Perry on the morning of the opening and avalking into the new county seat and claim the choicost town lots, arriving ahead of the horsemen from the Oklahoma line. In the same man- ner many intended going from Arkans: City to the Kansus and Nez Perces reserva- tions and make the run to Butter creok, Pond ereck and other important projected townsites. The teiegram received from the comm issioner is as follows: Dishonesty Checked. The president's proclamation prosorves Chi- loceo, Osage and Ponca reservations from 1ands to be opened.
