SAN JOSE, March 28.—An important ruling, which means many thousands of dollars for the depositors of the defunct Union Savings Bank, was made by Judge Rhodes yesterday morning in the case of the Union Savings Bank against Jeremiah Leiter, a stockholder, to enforce the pay- ment of an assessment. The suit was ‘brought to collect an assessment of $60 per share for the purpose of liquidating the bank’s indebtedness to the depositors. Leiter owned fifty-two shares and his in- debtedness amounts to $2600. The defense of Leiter was that the assessment was not legal apd that it was barred by the statute of tations. Judge Rhodes held that the directors had a right to rescind its former assess- ment and levy a new one. He declared the assessment, which was levied in 191, was valld and that the collection of the as- sessment was not barred Ly the statute of limitations, the time when the statute of limitations began being when the call was issued. This decision means that those stock- holders who have not yet paild the as- sessment of $60 will have to do so unless the Supreme Court should overrule the decision. ————— People of Woodland Are Indignant. ‘WOODLAND, March 28.—The failure of the Governor to sign the dairy school has aroused a good deal of indignation in Yolo County, most of which is directed toward President Wheeler of the State University. ———— After Venice, Berlin has more bridges thap any other town in Europe. 1| overcoat at the clothi More Monday Messages.
