Latter Mint He Preferred Over Com- inereiiil Depositor lit Settling n Detroit Rank' Affair. DETROIT, April 16. The Wayne Circuit Court to-day handed down a decision hold ing that the savings depositors of the wrecked City Savings Hank must be pre ferred over the commercial depositors in the distribution of the money to be real ized from the sales of the bank's real estate investments. The court holds that the proofs show that the real estate loans, amounting to fc'ÄS'., were made from the savings department, that the interest was turned into the savings department, and that the failure of the bank was vir tually a failure of the commercial side of the bank by overdrafts and mismanage ment. The court also trace.? fill, GOO to the savings bank side, and holds that it be longs exclusively to the savings depositors. Roth the real estate loans and this last sum, the court holds, shall at their face value go to pay the debt of the bank to the savings depositors, but both Itmes shall contribute to the expense of the receiver ship. The court says that It has no power, even in equity, to take away assets owned and rejKirtod in the savings branch and give them to the commercial division. It is further held that the savings depart ment is a general creditor of the commer cial department to the amount of about &VJ000, and shall share with the other creditors in the distribution of the com mercial assets. If this decision is upheld by the Supreme Court, where the cast; will be carried. It will result In the savings de positors getting probably 70 to SO per cent, of their claims, while the amount the com mercial depositors will receive is greatly re duced. lit llehnlf of rt Late Iiullitnlan.

Kellum Received Gilt-Edued Support nml Won EfTeetlve St. Louis Again To-DnyIlall .Note. Yesterday's score between Indianapolis ami St. Louis would probably nr,t have run into such large figures had the all-star American League players behaved them selves and not attempted to force any fan tastic Ideas on the Indianapolis public and especially the Hoosier players. Simply be cause Indianapolis had forged to the front in the third inning St. Louis tried to strike a batting gait in the sixth and go into the lead. The visitors were successful In taking the lead until the Hoosiers went to bat in the last ef the inning, when they wiped out the lead of one run and by piling- up a quin tet of tallies again headed the j)rocession. The score ended 8 to 5 In favor of Indian apolis. The weather man frightened many fans who expected to journey to the park and witness the contest, and as a result a small crowd saw the game. After the game was well under way the big clouds that hovered around during the early part of the after noon threate ning to dump elampness on the heads of the fans faded away and there was no obstruction or tlelay In the game. Roth teams were credited with an even elozen safe hits, but Indianapolis was more successfulln making hits at times when they were most needed. In only two inn ings did Indianapolis score, but in those innings safe ones were coupled with the misplays of the all-star aggregation and enough runs crossed the rubber to win the game. The game was a fast one, Indianapolis playing an errorless game, while St. Louis registered but two errors. The work of the Hoosiers in the field was of the variety that wins championship contests, and the candidates for championship honors in the new American Association won many friends by their brilliant lielding. Fox and Rabb were the only members of the Indian apolis team who failed to register in the baft-hit column, but their fielding was fast and clean. O'Rrien played a great game at short and, with Kellum. ltd the hitting of the Indianapolis sepuad. Klhm played a clever game at lirst. gathering in several bad throws from the litdders and picking up a low throw from Rabb In the seventh inning that was marvelous. HEIDRICK IN THE GAME. Ileidrick returned to the game yesterday and led the willow work for St. Louis with four safe hits. He made a hit every time he faced the pitcher with the exception of once and then he drove one to left that caused Shannon to do a lively sprint to get under tho drive. Wallace and Padden gathered in many hard drives that came their way and they also batted well for the team that expects to make Charles Comlskey's aggregation look liko "also rans." Jones, Anderson and Wallace shared in the batting honors with Ileidrick. Kellum was given lull nine innings battle against St. Eouis on the slab and with the exception of the sixth Inning, when tho first three men up found him for three bag gers, he did exceptionally good work - for this time of year. To prevent St. Louis from prolonging the game in the last in ning he struck out Maloney, who went to bat for Sudhoff, and also Burkett, the star batter of the American League. Rurkett could not solve Kellum at any stage of the game and did not make a hit. The first three times he went to bat he rolled easy grounders to Fox and was retired at lirst. Sudhoff pitched the entire game for St. .Louis and his wildness helped Indianapolis to make such a elisparity In the score. How ever, the Indianapolis batters found him for safe drives when hits were needed. Kellum was found for two hits In the first inning, but he retired the side without any damage being done. In the third inning St. Louis started the scoring with a lonely tally made on Heldrick's scratch hit and Jones's long double to left. . Kellum was the first man to go to bat in Indianapolis half of the third and he re-ached first on a scratch single. Fox struck out. but Hogriever showed that he is still in the batting game with a single to right. O'Rrien singled, scoring Kellum and Kihm's safe one to center sent Hog riever cantering across the rubber. Coulter forced O'Rrien out at the plate and Shan non's dumpy hit in front of tho plate filled the bases. Rabb was hit, forcing Kthm across the plate St. Louis aggravated the Indianapolis players in the sixth by Jones, Anderson and Wallace making triples and scoring thre-e runs. Shannon was the first batter for the Hoosiers In that inning and he drew a ticket. Rabb also waited and the fourth ball was a wild pitch on which Shannon reached third and Rabb went to second. Heydon filled the bases by beating out an infield hit and Kellum scored Shannon with a single. Fox again struck out. but Hog riever dispatched one to right, scoring Babb and Heydon. Hogriever stole second and O'Brien's hit scored Kellum and Hog riever. That was the last scoring in dulged in by Indianapolis. In the eighth Wallace made a triple and was scored on Pa.l.len's fly to right. Mc cormick made a double, but did not make the circuit. St. Iuis was easily retired In the last inning. The score: Indianapolis Fox. 2 A.R. R. 0 o Ö 1 0 1 1 1 H. O. 0 L A. 5 0 t 0 0 0 4 0 0 Hogriever, rf O'Rrien. s.... 5 3 4 Klhm. 1 1 1 1 it 1 V2 0 o 0 Coulter, cf... Shannon, If.. Rath. ?. Heydon, c...
