DES MOINES FIRM'S CLAIM SATISFIED Wwenty-Two Thousand In Cash Deposited and One of the Mosher Bank Tangles Finally Settled—Bullding and Loan Statement. LINCOLN, March 17.—(Speclal to The Bee.)—For the second time the confirmation of the sale of the Outcalt property to Yonker B of Des Moines was postponed this forenoay. When the court reached the case on the docket the room was well filled with the attorneys and other partles interested 1o the case. Attorney Hall, representing the Des Molnes brokers, called up the sale and moved that it be confirmed. Attorney Har- vey for the receiver asked the court to postpone the confirmation indefinitely. He stated that the attorneys for the receiver desired time to formulate tfelr objections and that it would be necessary to receive sdditional instructions from Washington. Mr. Hall made a vigorous demand for the fmmediate confirmation of the sale. He de- nied there was any fraud, either directly or indirectly, and that the firm he represented had made a bona fide purchase of the prop- . Mr. Hall's plea for confirmation was doubly discounted a few minutes later when ‘Attorney Wilson, who represents the Galva National bank of Galva, 111, arose and said that he desired on bebialf of his clients to move that the sale be set aside entirely, for the reason that the claim of Yonker Bros. had been fully satisfied. This statement created a ripple of sur- prise through the court room and every- body looked to Attorney Wilson for the con- firmation of his statement. He then stated hat J. D. Macfarland yesterday paid into the United States court at Omaha the sum of $22,000, that being the amount in full of the notes which ho had endorsed. Mr. Hall was conside taken back at tho announcement and could hardly conceal his surprise. Mr. Lambertson confirmed the statement, whereupon Judge Tibbetts an- nounced that the motion to confirm the sale would be postponed again until next Satur- Attorney Hall interposed a serious ob- Jection, and finally Judge Tibbetts modified the order and shortened the time until next Muesday. Mr. Macfarland’s connection with the sale 1s now fully understood. He endorsed the notes for Mosher and has since paid them. It the sale Is confirmed he will be practi- cally relmbursed, especially after the sale of the rest of Outcalt'’s property next Tue day. The farm property belonging to Out- calt is also to be sold for tke benefit of Yonker Bros., but as that firm has no in- terost In the caso now the real beneficlary will be Macfarland. In this connection it {s proper to state that whils Mr. Macfarland is the object of mo little eriticism in Lincoln, his honor has not bean assailed. The attorneys who repre- seut other creditors are anxious, of course, to secure any advantage for their clients that comes In thelr way, but they all agree that Mr. Macfarland's efforts to relmburse himselt are strictly proper, and that they would do the same under similar clrcum- stances. The real criticlsm against Macfar- fand is occasioned by his acceptance of the receivership of the Capital National bank, to secure which he was required to make oath that he was not directly or indirectly inter- estod personally. After Mr. Macfarland had yesigned the receivership, it transpired that he was directly interested to the extent of $22,000. NEBRASKA BUILDING ASSOCIATIONS. Chfef Clerk Townley of the State Banking board this afternoon finished the consoli- @ dated statement of the operations of the N raska building and loan assoclations for N Blie sear ending December 31, 1893, The \S » work has been delayed by the slowness with which the annual reports of the local officers have been forwarded.
