The work proved too much for Judge Rolapp and the further hearing of a number of motions had to be continued until Monday. A motion for a new trial in the case of Jane L. Warner against the Union Pacific company was argued by Judge W. L. Maginnls and Judge Le Grand Young. In this case the plaintiff obtained a Judgment against the defendant for something over $8,000 several months ago and a new trial Is now desired. The motion was taken under advisement. In the case of Max Davidson against E. A. Munsey an Interesting question arose on a motion to retax costs. As will be remembered the defendant was successful in his appear to the supreme court and secured a remittitur. Some time elapsed before the remittitur was filed in the district court, and In the meantime a ropy of the document waa procured by the plaintiff and filed, which cost $2.50. This and the cost of the original document, $12, was the question at Issue today, but Judge Rolapp permitted the deduction of the $2.50. Then a stay of execution waa given for one hour until one minute past three for plaintiff to pay costs, and at exactly 2 o'clock the money, amounting to $147, was paid to Clerk Hollingsworth. They won by a minute. The attorneys for plaintiff were Richards ft Pratt and W. L. Maginnls and for defendant Henderson ft MacMillan and R. S. Farnsworth. A motion far a new trial Is being argued this afternoon In the esse of Georgia Crocker against the Union Pacific. The plaintiff In this case secured a judgment for $12,000.
