INTERESTING PGiIXT RAISED IN A FIRE IXSIRAXCE CASE HOW CLAIM SHOULD BE FILED Question Is, Is It Xeeessnry to State Amount of Loss 'When Filing; Demand for Insurance. An interesting question in law was brought up before Judge .laggard in the district court yesterday afternoon in the case of Emile De Raiche against the Liverpool, London _•_. Globe Insurance company. The plaintiff conducted a store at 2122 Fourth avenue south, Minneapolis, upon which he held an insurance policy for $1,000 in the defendant company. His store was partially destroyed by, fire on July 30 last, and, as he claims, he noti fied the company of the fact. They were, however, .unable to come to tin agreement and De Raiche brought an action against the company to collect damages in- the sum of $1,000 and interest. When the case-was being- tried yesterday afternoon, Douglas Fisk, attorney for the defendant, objected to the plaintiff intro ducing certain evidence in regard to the loss on the ground that he had not com plied with the law in sending in a. writ ten statement of his loss. This brought I up the question as" to what is necessary, ! under the Minnesota insurance law of 1895, for the insured to do, in the matter , of. submitting proof of loss. Mr. Fisk ] contended that it is necessary for the [ insured to state in his proof of claim, ! the amount of his loss, which he claimed ! was not done in this case. Attorney Louis Frankel, for the plaintiff, however, - j claimed that his client had complied j with the law in every way necessary in j filing a proof of claim. Judge Jaggard | : took the question under advisement un i til Monday morning. This is a point that has never before ! j been decided, and a.decision thereon will ; be awaited with interest by insurance j companies. TO BE CERTIFIED FOR CONTEMPT. Snow* Bmikniittcy Proceedings Have Reached Interesting Stage. The proceedings in the matter of the bankruptcy petition of Walter E. Snow are growing more interesting with every move made. It will be remembered that Snow recently filed a petition in bank ruptcy, alleging that he had no assets, and was even unable to pay the $25 re quired for filin_r. v At the first hearing before Referee M. Doran Jr., it was disclosed by the cred itors that the petitioner had a short time previous received the sum" of S2.!iuo from the estate^ of his mother. This money was alleged to have been made over to his wife. The disclosure caused the re feree to announce that he intended to bring the matter to the notice of the grand jury, on the ground that Snow had wrongfully made the '-poor man's oath" in filing his schedule. •-;" ,'7 Mr. |D6ran then issued an order re quiring Mrs. Snow to turn her property over into the custody of the court. Through her counsel she appeared Thurs day and questioned the jurisdiction of the referee. The lawyer argued that the re feree could not issue a summary order, as Mrs. Snow was not a party to the proceedings. The next step was a declaration on the part of the referee to the effect that he would certify Mrs. Snow for contempt of court. Verdict for the Defendant.

BOTH MOTIONS WERE LOST. ■.■ v y County Treasurer Vainly Seeks Judgment From Two Corporations. The motion of the county treasurer for judgment for delinquent personal taxes in the sum ot ?379,20 against the St. Paul Suburban Railroad company, was denied by Judge JaggareL in the district court yesterday. The company put up the de fense that it sold its plant to the Minne apolis Suburban-Railroad company prior to May 1, 1899. The court also rendered a decision in the proceedings, begun by the county treasurer tn enforce tee col!e:t'on of taxes on the stock of the defunct St. Paul Savings bank. In giving the verbal de cision from the- bench, the court said: "In the matter of the savings bank cases, the. court: has concluded that the stock may have a value, although that bank be at the time absolutely insol vent. In this ruling the court does not regard the value of the stock as affected by the subsequent insolvency of the bank but on the testimony-in this particular case the court is inclined to think that the application 'for judgment should be denied because oft the testimony as to the value of the stock May 1."
