The proceedings on the civil docket during the day wero cphemcreal as a flight of fancy, notwithstanding that both limb of the court were in fine trim and ready for almost any task. The interest in Judge Anderson's chamber clustered around the case of l'ickard against tho City of Salt Lake in relation rela-tion to the old Fort block and the Deep Creek railway. Judge Dixon, associated associ-ated counsel for the defense, was the ouly one of the lawyers iu the case to report. When the issue was called Judge Anderson manifested some desire de-sire to get it under argument and stated that if it was reachod in the next few hours he would make an effort to arrive at a docision on Saturday next before taking his departure for other points in his jurisdiction. Mr. Dickson stated that they would let the matter bo set down for tomorrow tomor-row morning at 10 o'clock and the tempest and the teapot stand without any material change. In the case of H. W. Nichols v. Julia Walder in which plaintiff seeks judgment judg-ment in the sum of $1209.63 for services as an architect, the demurrer was sustained, sus-tained, Judge Rawlins appearing for the plaintiff and Mr. Bowman for tho defense Before Zano. The docket in Judge Zane's department depart-ment was soon disposed of. In the case of Everett vs. The Union 1'acilic railway the case was passed on citation that a compromise was pending. pend-ing. In the rase of Isaac Woolf vs. The Union l'acific railway a continuance was taken for the term, after which court adjourned until tomorrow morning morn-ing at 10 o'clock, at which time the regular reg-ular settings will bo taken up. Court Notaa. Judge Anderson will probably leave the last of the week to look after business busi-ness at rural points. Tho attention of the United States commissioners is confined almost exclusively ex-clusively to matters of a civil nature. Tho l'ickard protest is not attracting as much attention nor aawakeuing as much of an agitation as ihe protestant expected. There is a blank-cartridge feature about it that the public won't take to. The bondsmen in the Billy Allen case for alleged irregularities at the ballot box were skirmishing around the hallways hall-ways this morning in response lo notices that the bond had been forfeited aud that the clerk was ready to receive and receipt for the cash. It is understood under-stood that Allen is an unwilling subject under the reign of King Snow up in the northern country, and that it is impossible impos-sible fer him to get out until the trail is opened. The facts are said to have been submitted to tho prosecution. |
