APPEAL TO BE TAKEN
Attorneys in Insurance Suit
Have Recourse Left.
RECEIVER CLASSED ENEMY
I
Demurrer Filed to Kulo That Mr.
Kountrce Caunot Bo Substituted
for Stockholders In Case Over
Disposal of Assets.
When Circuit Judge Oatens refused
Attorneys C. L. Whealdon and Ralph
R. Duniway their request to substitute
Receiver N. W. Rountree, of the Ameri
can Life & Accident Insurance Com
pany, for plaintiffs in the original suit
against the Union Pacific Life for the
recovery of J80.000 in assets, and fur
ther denied their application to rile
an amended complaint in the original
suit which was demurred to. yesterday
morning, the attorneys threw up their
hand.
"We're through with this proceed
ing of the receiver." announced Attor
ney Duniway. "Why, if we went into
it as 'friends of the court,' we would
be tied hand and foot by the attorneys
for the receiver, who have refused to
work amicably with us. The receiver
has been in league with the men we
maintain looted the American Life, and
while to a layman it might appeal
that the court's offer to allow us to
submit all evidence we have to bring
up any charges we may wish to make
in the suit would be all we could rea
sonably ask, a lawyer knows how little
we would figure in the suit with hostile
attorneys conducting the action.
Appeal Is Intimated.
"We shall probably appeal to the
Supreme Court on our original suit,
after proffering an amended complaint.
When the court refuses to file it we
will make our appeal. .
"We refuse absolutely to be parties
to a whitewash of the defendants in
the case, which is just 'what would
happen if we consented to this farcical
suit of the receiver. The depositions,
which cost us many hundreds of dol
lars, have not been signed, on the
contention that they are incorrect, and
wa cannot force signatures or use the
documents, as our case has been thrown
out of court. '
No Fraud Alleged.
Attorneys Sheppard & Brock, appear
ing for Mr. Rountree, in the new com
tilaint thev filed Friday at the order
of the court, do not allege fraud, ex
cept on "information ana icnowieasa
coming from certain stockholders." re
ferring to N. Whealdon et al., who filed
the original suit. The demurrer to the
first suit was- sustained on the grounds
that the stockholders were not tne
nrnnor nersons to bring the action.
"Don't fire me until I do. something
for which I should be nrea." pieaaea
Attorney Sheppard at the hearin gyes
terday morning. "Our suit will allow
an inquiry into all phases the stock
holders want probed."
The suing stockholders offered to
n v their own attorneys and to stand
all the expenses of the receiver's suit.
if the court would allow Mr. nouniree
he transferred from a defendant to
a party plaintiff, in the original suit,
substituting him for N. Whealdon et al.
This the court denied on the grounds
that It could not be done unless all
parties agreed to the proposal, which
they did not,
