MONTPELIER MAN WINS SUIT TO COLLECT $4000 The First National bank of Montpelier, Idaho, is indebted to the Rev. George De Stoop in the sum of $4000, and the bank's receiver, Oram Tracy, should allow the claim without interest, said an opinion Tuesday by Judge F. S. Dietrich of United States district court. The suit was filed about two years ago against the bank and later, when the bank suspended, C. C. Sill, then receiver, was made co-defendant. Mr Tracy succeeded Mr. Sill. Mr. De Stoop. in his first complaint, held that the bank had the money in trust for him and that he therefore had a preferential claim. In an amended complaint he maintained general claim against the insolvent estate. Mr. De Stoop was a depositor of the bank's, and in April, 1913, had placed $4041.92 in his account, the money having been received as an inheritance from a family estate in BelShortly before the bank failed Mr. De Stoop made demand for the money and when he failed to get it, suit was filed.
