UNION B. AND L. TROUBLES.
- RECEIVER O'NEIL IS FINALLY
REMOVED.
Supreme Court Says tke Associa
tion's Officers Must Wind
Up Its Affairs.
The Supreme Court has reaffirmed the
Hecision rendered a few weeks ago in the
case of the People against the Union
Building and Loan Association, in
which the court declared that the ap
pointment of a receiver to wind up the
affairs of the association was unau
thorized. A rehearing was granted,
With the result as stated. The decision
reads:
In the Supreme Court of the State of
California.
(Filed December 29, 1899.)
In Bank: The People of the State of
California, by W. F. Fitzgerald, Attor
ney General, upon complaint of the
Commissioners of the Building and
Loan Associations of the State of Cali
fornia, plaintiff and respondent, VS.

tion of Sacramento (a corporation) and
B. U. Steinman et al., a* directors
thereof, defendants, the Union Build
ing and Loan Association, appellant.
(Sac. No. 610.)
Same Plaintiff vs. Same Defendants;
L. Tozer, appellant. (Sac. No. 011.)
By the court: This case was heard In.
Department Two, and decided October
20, 1899, by which the judgment of the
court below was modifi-ed by eliminat
ing therefrom the order appointing a
receiver, and as tmis modified the
judgment was affirmed. Afterward a
petition for rehearing in bank was filed
by Thomas W. O'Neil, the receiver ap
pointed by the court below, who, by
stipulation of counsel and permission of
the court had filed a brief In said cause.
In the petition for rehearing it was
suggested that said brief must have
been overlooked by the Commissioner
who wrote the opinion, or that it failed
to reach him.
Upon investigation it was found that
said brief on behalf of the receiver, and
a reply thereto by appellant, L. Tozer,
had not reached either the CommiSßion-
er or the department, and upon that
ground alone a rehearing In bank was
granted. O'Neil having no other rela
tion to the case than that of receiver

An Ordinance to Prevent tbe
Spreading of Infectious or Con
tagious Diseases by tbe Owners
or Employes of any Public Laun
dry in tbe City of Sacramento,
Making the Violation Thereof a
Misdemeanor and Fixing the Pen
alty for Such Violation.
The Board of Trustees of the City
of Saoramento ordain as follows:
Section 1. It shall be unlawful
for any person or persons owning,
carrying on or conducting any
public laundry in the city of Sac
ramento, to spray the clothing of
any person or persons, being laun
dried therein, with water or other
fluids emitted from the mouth of
such person, owner or employe.
Section 2. No person or persons
engaged in carrying on or con

Sacramento, shall permit any per
son having any infectious or con
tagious disease, to lodge, sleep or
remain within or upon the prem
ises so used as a public laundry.

not less than five nor more than
one bundred days, or by both such
tine and imprisonment.
Section 4. This ordinance shall

judgment from which these appeals
were taken, has no standing or relation
to the case which would authorize him
to petition the court for a rehearing,
or even- to file a brief therein except as
an amicus curiae. (In re Pina, 112 Cal..
14.) He had no right of appeal. He
was not a party aggrieved by the Judg
ment from which tbe appeal was taken
and could not have taken an appeal, nor
did the service upon him of the notice
of appeal give him any standing in this
court. He waa not a party to the liti
gation, and had po interest In behalf
of or against either party thereto. The
only interest be had is that of retain
ing an office to which he was ap
pointed by the court by its final judg
ment in a cause litigated by other par
ties.
The present Attorney General, how
ever, indorsed upon said petition the
following:
"I hereby consent to the foregoing pe
tition for rehearing and, in this connec
tion, desire to add that, from an ex
amination of the transcript on appeal
(pps. 2G and 27) It appears througn
some inadvertence a stipulation was en
tered into by this office on the day
of September, 1898, to the effect that
the transcript on appeal contained 'the
judgment-roll,' whereas, in fact, the
complaint in intervention filed in said
cause by Grove I*. Johnson, intervenor,
is omitted from the judgment-roll as
printed in the transcript."
It is due to the learned Attorney
General to remark In this connection
that said cause was trlsd under the ad
ministration of his predecessor in that
office, and said consent was based upon
a reference in the transcript to "Grove
L. Johnson, intervenor." Upon this
representatlon leave was given to re
spondent to file in this court a copy
of said complaint in intervention, and
leave was also given to appellants to
file a copy of the proceedings of the
court below thereon; and from said
complaint and proceedings, now before
this court upon said application to cor
rect the record, it appears, that this
cause was tried on February 17, 18U8,
and that said complaint in intervention
was not filed until that day; that ser
vice thereof was acknowledged by the
attorneys for the defendant associa
tion, and Defendants Steinman, Heil
bron, Jones and Locke, "reserving all
objections made as to granting per
mission to file the same"; that on Feb
ruary 26th, demurrers to said com
plaint in intervention were filed by the
defendants, and on the same day notice
was given that on March 4th a motion
to strike out parts of said complaint
would be made.
On March 4th said motion was con
tinued one week, and on March 11,

Loose Straw, Manure or Garbage of
Any Kind From Vehicles Upon the
Streets and Alleys of Sacramento
City, and Providing a Punishment for

Number Three Hundred and Sixty-
Nine.
The Board of Trustees of the city of
Sacramento ordain as follows:
Section 1. No person shall drive or
cause to be driven or used on any street
or alley within the limits of the city of
Sacramento, any wagon, cart or other ve
hicle loaded with sand dirt, loose straw,

1898, said motion was "continued
without day, to be restored to the calen
dar upon ten days' notice." It thus ap
pears that the complaint in intervention
was not filed by consent of the defend
ants and it was filed on tbe day of the
trial, and waa not heard or considered
by the court and is still pending there
in upon said demurrers and motion to
strike out. It therefore formed no part
of the judgment roll of the cause that
was tried, and cannot be considered
upon this appeal. We must assume, in
the absence of the bill of exceptions
showing otherwise, that no application
was made by the intervenor to the court
below to postpone the hearing of the
cause until an issue could be formed
upon this complaint in intervention, and
that all action thereon was waived, so
far, at least, as that trial was con
cerned.
The rehearing having been granted
because of the accident by which the
briefs above mentioned were not con
sidered by the court or the Commis
sioners, it now becomes our duty to ex
amine them. »
In brief on behalf of the Receiver it
is contended that the action of the
court in appointing a Receiver cannot
be reviewed because the evidence heard
by the court below has not been
brought up by a bill of exceptions;
that the only ground upon which the
action of the court can be assailed is
a want of jurisdiction to make the or
der complained of; that in the ab
sence of a bill of exceptions it cannot
be determined whether or not the court
below erred in making the order ap
pointing a Receiver, since it cannot be
known what facts were before the
court, and must therefore presume
that the evidence justified the appoint
ment.
There is no merit in this contention.
To sustain it we must presume that
the court received evidence outside of
the issues, which, If properly received,
would justify the order appointing the
Receiver. It is not contended in this
brief that the court failed to find upon
any fact alleged in the complaint, but
we are asked to affirm the order ap
pointing a Receiver because we do not
know but that the court may have
trecelved evidence of facts not in issue
which justified it. For aught we know
facts may exist which would authorize
the appointment of a Receiver, but
unless the facts as alleged and found
justify it, the order making the ap
pointment is properly reversed* on ap
peal from the judgment upon the judg
ment roll.
Again, it Is contended that the Build
ing and Loan Commissioners' Act Is a
special statute, and is independent of
the general provisions of law regulat
ing the appointment of Receivers, and
that in cases under this statute, "the
court is authorized to make such ap
pointment regardless of general prin
ciples." This contention, as well as the
further contention that "the findings
are sufficient to show the existence of
good cause for the appointment of a
Receiver, even when tested by the
rules of equity and by the general
provisions of the law" are sufficiently
answered in the opinion heretofore
filed and w r hieh is hereby approved.
(See IS Cal., Dec, 153; 58 Pac. Rep.
822.)
It is therefore ordered that the judg
ment entered in department stand as
the judgment of the court.
COMMERCIAL.
WHEAT PRICES STEADY OFF
THE CALL BOARD.
Barley Market at a Standstill, Ow
ing to Holiday .Season—
Oats Also Dull.
San Francisco, Dee. 80th.
Owing to the annual jinks of the grain
brokers it was impossible to do any busi
ness at the Produce Exchange this morn
ing, and there were no transactions at the
Call Board or sample sessions. Off call
$1-06% was bid for May Wheat, which in
dicated that prices were steady. Holiday
influences also prevailed in Chicago, where
the Board of Trade closed at 11 o'clock.
Prices for Wheat in that market opened
slightly lower, with sales of May at 69Vic,
but towards the close a stronger tone set
In and there was an advance to €B*4c.
The Liverpool prices were %d lower on
the day. There was very little statistical
or other news of importance. All the ex
changes will be closed on Monday next-
New Year's Day. The local Barley market
was at a standstill for the reasons given
above. Receipts were 2,170 centals. Outs
were dull from the same cause. Receipts
were 845 centals. The Corn receipts were
600 centals Eastern.
Owing to the wet weather and holiday
influences, very little trade was in pro
gress In the Hay market, and prices were
nominally unchanged.
Beans unchanged.
In the Fruit market holiday wants have
been liberally supplied. Trade in Apples
and Citrus Fruits was extremely dull,
and prices, excepting for fancy brands in
a small way, were weak. ,
Potatoes and Onions quiet. Prices for
Green Peas, String Beans, Tomatoes and
Summer Squash had a sharp decline.
Green Peppers weak.
Fancy Creamery Butter steady. Other
grades of Butter unchanged. Stocks of
Cheese are becoming quite large. Some
dealers are shading prices. There was less
inquiry for Eggs, although dealers asked
previous prices. The holiday demand has
ceased.
Dressed Turkeys lower. Prices for live
Turkeys were wholly nominal. Other live
Poultry quiet and unchanged.

SACRAMENTO MARKET
Tbe Week Closes Witb a Good Day
in Produce Circles.
Sacramento, Dec. 30th.
The week closed with a good day's trade
in local produce circles, after nearly a
week of quietness. This was due mainly
to the fact that Monday is a holiday, and
patrons of the markets were giving orders
to last through until Tuesday. There was
no deviation in the price list, excepting
for Turkeys, which under the limited de
mand declined. They were quoted to-day
at 22c for dressed and 18c for live. The
markets will be open for the delivery of
orders during the early hours on Mon
day, but will be generally closed in the
afternoon.
