Dealers Ja slabwood captured nearly all the con tracts for supplying fuel for the public schools for the coming year, owing to its cheapness. Banneld & Co. will furnish the greatest number of schools, anc Storey & Kern the next largest num ber, and tho Albina Lumber Company will supply some of the schools in that part of the city. The bids for slabwood ranged from $1 SO per cord to $2 25, ac cording to the distance it has to be hauled. The bids for flr wood ranged from $2 90 to $3 50 per cord. Schools far away from the sawmills, as Woodlawn, Highland, Central Albina, Fulton Park, etc, will be supplied with cordwood, ana the Central School on the East Side and the Atkinson School on the West Side, which are heated by stoves, will be sup plied with oak wood, at a cost of H per cord. After the bids had all been tabulated by Clerk Allen, the committee on supplies decided to recommend that the contracts for furnishing slabwood be awarded to the lowest bidders, on the condition that the contracts specify that good, merchantable wood shall be fur nished, and that it shall contain consid erable wood without slab or bark. This requirement has been agreed to by the lowest bidders, and the matter of fuel supply for the schools has been disposed of for the next year. Improvements Accepted. The Board of Public Works has accepted the im provements on Mississippi avenue, from Goldsmith to Morris street; on Halght avenue, from Beech street to the south line of Central Albina, and on Taggart street, from East Thirty-ninth street to Hawthorne avenue. It has also accepted sewers as follows: In East Alder street, from East Twelfth to East Twentieth; in East Ankeny street, from East Twen tieth to tho sewer In East Ankeny, and in East Main street, from 173 feet east of East Thirty -fifth to sewer in East Thirty - fifth.

Fish Commis sioner F. C Reed returned yesterday from Coos Bay, where he went several days ago to select a hatchery site. He succeeded in finding a place which he thinks will be a good location. It Is on the south fork of Coos River. A rack is to be put in at once, and if It is found that a sufficient number of fish can be taken there a house for a hatchery will be built. On his way back Mr. Reed stopped on tho Sluslaw River and picked out a location for a rack, A hatchery will bo put in there also if fish in suf ficient quantities are found. Special Council Meeting.

IN THE SEVERAL COURTS MORTGAGEES MAY FORECLOSE OX THE 3IAHQVAM PROPERTY. Sack I Judge Cleland' Decision Findings in Several Other Salts In His Department. Judge Cleland, in the suit of the United States Mortgage Company vs. P. A. Mar quam, to foreclose the mortgage on tha Marquain block, etc., decided in favor of the Title Guarantee & Trust Company, as trustee of the property, on all points except that compound interest cannot be charged against Marquam. Having failed in his plea of abatement, Marquam is allowed to file un answer. ' The Title Guarantee &. Trust Company held a trust deed to the property to man. age it, collect the rents, pay the Interest on the mortgage, and do all things neces sary under a trust agreement. At the time the trust agreement was entered Into Marquam was threatened by certain cred itors, and the company also agreed to look after these claims. Marquam ob jected to the manner in which the prop erty was handled. Tho court holds that the Title, Guaran tee & Trust Company did the best it could In making leases and renting tho property, and in all other respects acted carefully. Concerning the 53223 lost on account of the contract with the North western Theatrical Association, Judge Cleland decided that tho trust company had no reason to know or suppose the bondsmen were insolvent. The charge, of $371 for services in settling up som& matters for Marquam Is sustained, as is also 33000 paid as premiums for Insurance, although its president was the agent of the Insurance company. The defense that the Title Guarantee & Trust Company was obliged to keep tho taxes paid was also held not good. Interest was, It Is alleged by Marquam, compounded quar terly, and this the court decided not valid in the absence of any posltlvo specific agreement to pay compound interest. The court has previously decided that the United States Mortgage Company may proceed with its suit to foreclose the mortgage. The amount of the mortgago is about $350,000. It covers the entire Marquam block and 80 acres in the Qulim donation land claim. Tho acreage is val uable. Against the Loevrenbergr Estate. The trial of tho suit of the Security Savings & Trust Company against Bertha Loewenberg, executrix of the estate of Julius Loewenberg, deceased, to recover $2251, due the plaintiff, 523,003 due to the First National Bank, and 5S59S due to the London & San Francisco Bank, was bo gun before Judge Cleland yesterday. The Security Savings & Trust Company holds a mortgage as trustee for the benefit of the other claimants, on the undivided one-half of block 2S, Watson's Addition, the undivided one-half of 160 acres, and half of 30 acres. The land Is close to the city, and is worth probably ?4C,000. There is some interest due. J. Frank Watson, president of the Mer chants National Bank, has a claim against the Loewenberg estate for J1S.0O0, arid Is seeking to establish a precedence of an attachment levied on his claim over the mortgage held by the plaintiff for the benefit of the others. This is the contro versy in the case. There Is no dispute concerning the correctness of any of the claims, and if the property would sell for enough to go around there would be no trouble, but it Is feared that it will not. Evidence was Introduced regarding notes of Loewenberg Brothers, of Spo kano, amounting to a large sum, and hold by the First National Bank as col lateral security. These were executed about 1102 and signed by Herman, Bern hard and Julius Loewennerg, the latter being a member of the firm. The evi dence for the plaintiff was that these do not affect the mortgage security, as they were never paid, except small sums on each, about $3000 altogether. In "behalf of J. Frank Watson's claim of $18,000, the effort is made to show that his attachment takes priority over tho trust deed agreement or plaintiff and Loewenberg, which was supplemented "by the mortgage, because the agreement is alleged to have been made In secret, and the Instrument not recorded, and there are other contentions on this line. Senator Joseph Simon was one of the witnesses yesterday, and he also ap peared as counsel for plaintiff with John M. Gearln. J. W. Whalley and William T. Mulr appear as attorneys for Mr. Wat son. USURIOUS INTEREST. Bnlldlnp: fc Lonn Association Scores One Point. The demurrer to the complaint was overruled in the suit of the Pacific States Building & Loan Association against Mary Peterson et al., and the defendants were allowed 15 days to answer. The suit is to foreclose a mortgage, and was de murred to on several grounds, among them that the contract under which tho loan is made Is usurious, and uncon scionable. It was further contended that the law allowing building and loan asso. ciations to charge more than legal Inter est is unconstitutional. The court was not inclined to pass finally upon these points on demurrer, but said they might be nlcaded as defenses In the answer. If the contract is then shown to be usurious, the court may consider It illegal or not, as the case may be. Regarding the con tention that the building association law of this state Is unconstitutional, Judgo Cleland was of the opinion that the Su preme Court should pass upon the ques tion. The court held that the plaintiff, a California corporation, has capacity to sue in this state, even if it has no resident agent in the state: It does not como within the class of corporations compre hended by the statute on this point; that the question of interest is one of public policy, over which the Legislature has complete Jurisdiction, and by the laws of 1891 and 1S95, by which building and loan associations were exempted from the law against usury, and that the contract Is not on Its face fraudulent and uncon scionable, and Is. therefore, legally en forceable: that, in brief, the complaint is good, and, so far as the pleadings dis close, the debt must be paid according to the plaintiffs demand. The defendant will answer, however, and try out tho case on the facts. Divorces Denied. Samuel P. Goodwin's complaint against his wife, Alice V., for a divorce was dis missed, and also her crossbill against him asking that she be granted a decreo dissolving the matrimonial bonds. The evidence at the trial disclosed that the litigants have a good home, and plenty of friends, but they quarreled a good deal. According to Mrs. Goodwin, it was because her husband drank too much at times. Ho accused her of flying off the handle at every provocation. The fact that they continued to live together after so many differences, the court intimated, weakened their importance, but the case was dismissed because of undisputed tes timony that they separated last January In pursuance of an agreement, and verbal contract, by which Goodwin was to re main away, and was to pay a certain sum per month to his family. This the court held showed collusion. Judge Cleland also denied . divorce In the suit of Frances Partlow against Hol 11s Partlow, on the ground of cruel treat ment. Deed Set Aside. In the suit of Sarah Greenman vs. Charles Lohkamp et aL, to have set aside a deed to 15 acres of land. Judge Cleland decided In favor of the plaintiff. Loh kamp caused the arrest of A Kutemeyer, a grandson of Mrs. Greenman, and com pelled Kutemeyer to many his (Loh- OUR BABY SHOW Commences This Morning At Our New Store This morning we commence our baby exposition, and we are sure that in point of attractiveness It will eclipse any baby show ever held.

The deed to the land was executed at that time, at the solicitation of Lohkamp, who threat ened to send Kutemeyer to the peniten tiary if it was not done. The court held that Mrs. Greenman was under no obliga tion to make the deed, and that It was without consideration, and set it aside. Lohkamp held it as trustee for the benefit of his daughter. For the Defendant. In the case of C A, Moore vs. J. C. Shofner, to quiet title to four lots pur chased at Chief of Police sale for unpaid sewer assessments a decision was ren dered in favor of the defendant. Courts are inclined to hold against a tax title whenever equity will permit, and It was held that on tendering into court, as tho defendant has done, the taxes, interest, etc., he is entitled to recover his lots. It was developed that the notice of the sale was not published the length of time re quired by the charter, and that would In validate the sale, if the court could con sider it after sale, but the findings wero for the defendant on general grounds. Court Xoten. Waldemar Seton, a lawyer who was admitted to practice in the United States Courts Monday, has been appointed As sistant United States District Attorney, In place of E. Mays, who is at Nome. On the petition of William Hearn, ad ministrator of the estate of Harriet M. Mangan. deceased, Judge Cake yesterday Issued an order restraining Mrs. Robert H. Louthit from transferring, assigning or disposing of certain moneys. The pe tition states that Mrs. Mangan gave Mrs. Louthit $1250 for safe keeping, and on May 24 that Mrs. Mangan went to the hospital to have an operation performed, and that she was fearful she might not survive, and before going gave Mrs. Louthit an additional $500. All of this except what was paid by Mrs. Louthit for the surgical operation and funeral ex penses Is alleged to be still in her pos session, and It is stated she has refused to deliver the money to Anthony Man gan, the husband of deceased. When Mrs. Louthit puts In an appearance to defend the case she will be allowed to give her version of the matter. WHERE TO DINE.
