DEXTER HORTON WINS SUIT.
FAIRBANKS.—Telegraphic ad
vice^ received her yesterday were to
the effect that the supreme court of
the state of Washington had ruled
against F. G. Noyes, receiver of the
Washington-Alaska bank in the case
of the Dexter-Horton Bank vs. The
Receiver. The effect of the ruling is
that the lien of the Dexter-Horton
Bank against the Gold Bar Lumber
stock, which has been one of the
“bones of contention” in the bank
cases, is recognized by the court, and
that an order will soon be issued en
titling them to foreclose on it. The
receiver contended in the suit that
the stock had merely been placed with
the Dexter-Horton people for safe
keeping.
The decision of the Washington
court leaves the depositors of the
Washington-Alaska Bank witn one
Jess hope of securing the remainder
of their monv.\ *.n fact the;r on'/
remaining hope is that Fernand de
Journei will be successful in his suits
against the former stockholders of
the Washington-Alaska Bank.—

use a heater that
