THE HORNING OREGOSIAy, TUESDAY, AUGUST 5, 190 LIFE OF A LEASE Payments After Expiration Make Extension. RULING OF SUPREME COURT Listings of S vre.mp Land to the State Does Xot Convey Title Grantee 31ns t Contest in the Land , Department. . "When a lessee continues la poeses elon and pays rent after the expiration or a 10-year lease. It Is held that thla Is a. continuance of the relationship of landlord and tenant from year to year under the original agreement. Sharing of profits ' and losses Is not alone evidence of partnership, but there roust bo community of interest and control of the property. The llstlnr of land to the state as swamp land does not convey title, and the Secretary of the Interior may can cel the list any time before patent la sues. The state's srantee must con test the question -whether land was,- In fact, swamp land In the Land "Depart ment. SALEM, Aug. 4. (Special.) The Su preme Court today rendered four deci sions. In two instances, the findings pf the lower court were affirmed, and the other two cases were reversed. The de cisions. In brief, were as follows: H. B. Parker, appellant, vs. Charles H. Page and James Brown, executors of the estate of E. C. Qrovr, deceased, from Clat sop County, T. A. McBridc, Judge, af firmed: opinion by Justice Wolverton. This was -an action to recover upon an alleged breach of contract. In 1SS7, E. C Crow leased to H. B. Parker a tract oi land on the water front In Astoria, for a period of ten years, at 123 per month. It was agreed that whatever per manent Improvements remained on the land at the expiration of the lease should be purchased by Crow in case the lease could not be continued. Parker agreed that at the termination of the lease or any continuation thereof be would sur render the property. A wharf and ware house were built .uppn the property and at the end of the ten years no agreement was reached as" to a continuance., but Parker remained in possession and con tinued to pay rent. This action was brought about two years later. The theory of the plaintiff was that Crow and his executors had refused, to renew the lease for a like term of ten years when the first term expired. The defense was that the lease had been continued as agreed, and that therefore the defendants "were not liable for the improvements,. The Supreme Court holds that the evi dence does not show that Crow ever agreed to continue or refused to continue the lease. "When there has been a leasing for. a year, or for a term of years, and a holding-over after the term with the tacit acquiescence of the landlord, the re lationship and agreement of the parties Is converted Into a technical tenancy from year to year. It is optional with the landlord whether to treat the continued holding ns a trespass or td regard the act of the tenant as lawful, and the ten ant has no alternative but to abide his determination, but when the landlord has once made his election by recognition of the relationship, he cannot thereafter deny the relationship. . . . Under the terms of the original lease it was left ab solutely to the- option of the plaintiff (Parker) whether he would agree to a continuance of the relationship with- Crow. If he had declined to continue and surrendered possession at the end of the term, there would havo been but one thing for Crow to do and that would be to pay the wlu of the improvements. But instead of taking this course he con tinued In possession and the law charging him with full knowledge of the effect of his act in so doing, the newtcnancy from year to year has been established through his own volition." It is therefore held that under the agreement plaintiff is not entitled to re cover for the improvements for the reason that the lease was continued after the ex piration of the lease. J. O. Hanthorn, respondent, vs. James Quinn, appellant, from Columbia County. T; A. McBrlde, Judge, reversed; opinion "by Justice Bean. This was a suit for the dissolution of an alleged partnership and for an account ing. Quinn was the ovrnor of fishing grounds and a fishing right on the Eben "Weld Donation Land Claim in Columbia County. His fish traps were washed out by the flood of 1884. and he thereafter entered into an agreement' with Hanthorn by the terms of which Quinn leased the land to "Hanthorn for ten years, together with the use of a certain wharf and ad jacent pasture lands, hi consideration of which Hanthorn agreed that he would take charge of the premises and "will, in the first instance, each year, advance all moneys necessary therefor, and will construct all neccssarv buildinBTK and mnkA all necessary improvements, etc, in order iu csiauusu auu operate upon saia leased premises a fishery, .etc" He agreed to operate the fishery, dispose of tno fish caught, keep books of account, and at the end of each fishing season pay to the de fendant "one-half the net proceeds de rlyed from said Ushery, after paying all expenses and Indebtedness incurred In es tablishing, conducting and operating the same. By one clause of the agreement the two men mutually agreed that "they Trill each bear one-half of the cost and expense of said buildings. Improvements and gear and plant, and the necessary cost and expense of maintaining and operating said fishery, and that they will share equally in -the profits and losses of said fishery." Hanthorn. began clearing the ground In order to build the fishery plant, but the work was so great that in four years he had spent $16,000 and was compelled to give up the undertaking. He demanded payment of half the expenses of Quinn, but the latter denied his liability under the agreement, and this. suit was brought. The question was whether under this agreement a partnership existed. In the lower court testimony outside the agreement was taken and the decision was that a partnership existed and that Quinn was liable for half the expenses Incurred to. date. The Supreme Codrt, In reversing Oils decision, holds that the Written agreement contains all the terms of the contract. "A partnership is defined -as a "voluntary contract between two or more persons, agreeing to put their money, effects, labor and skill, or either or all. In fnl enterprise or business with a view. oi aiviaing me proms or sharing the losses which resujt therefrom. . . . Among the essential elements of every partnership are a community of interest in the property and business and the right of survivorship. Every member of a partnership is a. principal, having a'U'olnt lnterost in the property, is an agent of his associates, and upon the death, of his partner is entitled to retain and dispose of the partnership effects In the settle ment of its affair's. A mere agreement to share in the profits and losses of an en terprise does not of itself create a part nership." The Supreme Court holds that the agree ment, taken as a whole, is a lease and does not create a partnership for the rea- son that it lacks the essentials of a part nership agreement community tf Inter est and control. It is also held that be fore plaintiff can recover under the clause quoted referring to the sharing of profits and losses, he must first fulfill his' part of the agreement, to erect a fishery, and having failed In this, he cannot recover. Thomas Miles, appellant, vs. Columbia River Packers Association, respondents, from Clatsop County. T. A. McBrlde, Judge, affirmed; opinion by -Chief Justice Moore. Miles brought an action against the de fendant company to recover wages due himself and eight others for services Ten dered at the request of Fritz Miller, who operated a seine on Matthew's Sands. The plaintiff alleged that Miller was the agent of the association and had author ity to employ laborers. After the plaintiff had introduced his testimony in the court below, a non-suit was granted upon the ground that the evidence introduced did not make out a case. The Supremo Court reviews the evi dence at length and sustains the lower court. The evidence showed that Miller had operated a seine and sold his fish to the association, Issuing orders on the association in payment of the wages of his men, the orders being charged to his account. There being no evidence that Miller was the agent of the association, ' the non-suit was properly granted. -It is also held that there was no evidence that any authorized agent of the asso ciation ever assured the men that the as sociation would pay their wages. George H. Small, respondent, vs. Elmer D. Lutz, appellant, from Lake County, H. 1. Benson, Judge, reversed, and com plaint dismissed; opinion "by Justice Bean. Plaintiff claimed title to land by pur chase from the state under the swamp land act. Defendant held under a patent from the government under the homestead act. The plaintiff secured his deed from the state after the department of the Interior had Issued a swamp land list, showing that the state was entitled to the land, b.ut later the list was cancelled. Held that the listing of certain lands to the state as swamp lands, by the Secre tary of the Interior, is not conclusive, but may be revoked any time prior to the is suance of a patent. Until the patent has been Issued, the land department may de termine for Itself undor what circum stances and upon what notice it will cancel the list. If tho cancellation is made without notice to a grantee of the state, . . he still has the right to show by evidence othor than the approved list, that the land was In fact within the terms of the swamp land grant, and should bo patented to the state. But, In our opin ion, this showing must be made to the Secretary of the Interior, and before the legal title passes from the. government. It is therefore held that plaintiffs com plaint did not state a cause of suit MINE WILL NOT BE CLOSED. Scarles Untntc Will Continue Devel opment nt Cornucopia. BAKER CITY. Or., Aug. 4. (Special.) George D. Beattys, trustee In- bankruptcy of the John Searles estate, has returned to this city from Cornucopia, where he went to Inspect the Cornucopia mine and other property belonelnjr to the Senrlps estate. He says without reservation that the property is truly a bonanza, and he expresses opinion that the Dronertv is Tlch enough to pay all of the unsecured jnaeDteaness or the estate and leave Mr. Scarles a rich man. In regard to the future of the mine, he said it would be worked for the purpose of development only. Development makes the mine more valuable, and at the same time the ore. when put through the mill, yields sufficient money to pay all ex penses and leave a good sum in the bank to the credit of the estate each month. The authoritative announcement that the Cornucopia niine Is not to be closed down was good news to the business Interests of the city, because it means the dis tribution of a great deal of money for wages and ore-hauling, of which the peo ple of Baker City and tfce Panhandle dis trict of this county get the lion's share. Mr. Beattys came out from New York at the suggestion of the court to examine some of the Western assets. He said he was more than pleased with the Cornu copia. BualneMS nt Land Office.

Instea'd of Fol loTTins After Him. SPOKANE, Aug. L The pursuers of Tracy are proceeding on the theory that he Is somewhere In thejsoutheaotern por tion of Lincoln County. Sheriffs Cudihee and De Bolt arrived In Heardan. 15 miles east of Davenport, at an early hour thin morning, having traveled all night. Later they left for EdwaU and a, telephone mes sage from there says they left for the south, presumably for tlj Crab Creek country. Sheriff Doust, of Spokane County, and a posse arc guarding the Sprague country, and Sheriff .Gardner, of Lincoln, Is etlil covering the northern end of the country. Beyond a rumor that Tracy was seen near Odessa, in the Crab Creek country. , - J t MAP .SHOWING MOVEMENTS OF CONVICT TRACY there 1b nothing - new today as io the outlay's exact whereabouts. v Tracy fa believed to have spent the day in hiding In the rough Lake Creek country, west of Harrington, awaiting for darkness to sneak toward the wild region In Southeastern Lincoln County. A special to the Chronicle from Odessa etatea that a man answering his descrip tion was seen by Mrs. Craben, a farmer's wife, two and a half miles north of that town, about 9:30 o'clock last night. He was traveling north on the road that leads to Wilbur, riding one horse and leading another, and carried two rifles. He did not stop nor speak to the woman as he passed. It Is suspected that he werely turned north to find a hiding place. The plan of the ofllcera campaign hao been somewhat changed, the programme now being to get in front of Tracy and head him off instead of pursuing him. De Bolt tried this plan Saturday night, lying in wait for tho outlaw near Odessa, but the road forked and Tracy took the wrong fork, swinging sout hand mirelng the ambush. Signs point strongly toward the theory that Tracy plans to work " through the Crab Creek and Rock Lake region, pass ing near Sprague and working toward Idaho. Along this route are many hiding places. It has long been known as a fa vorite haunt of horse thieves and des peradoes who might give aid and sympa thy. FIGHT OVER WATER POWER. New Point In Lnvr Raised as to the Transmission of Electricity. SALEM. Or.. Aug. 4. (Special.) In the case of the Union Light & Power Company vs. John LIchty, George G. Bingham to day, filed an answer which raises a new question In the law concerning electricity. The question is. Can one proprietor of a water power transmit that power by elec tric current outside the basin drained by the stream furnishing the power, if such use of the -water power conflicts with the needs of other proprietors? The Union Light & Power Company has an electric light and power plant operated by water held by a dam aSross Silver Creek, near SUverton. LIchty put In a dam a few miles farther "up the stream to secure power for his own needs. The company brought suit to restrain him. from an al leged wrongful Interference with their supply of water by the erection of'hls dam. In his answer Xilchty contends that he is taking no more water than is necessary, and no more tharj he is entitled to a's a riparian proprietor. As a further defense he denies the company's right to complain, and g'ves as a reason the fact that tho company transmits power over tho divide to Woodbunu It is a rule of law that riparian proprietors cannot, so long as other proprietors object, convey water for irrigation or power purposes over the di vide and" out of the baeln In which It is fcund. Mr. Bingham will contend that the same principle of law-should apply in this case, though the power Is transmitted by wiro. and that so long as the water supply is Inadequate to the needs of all users, none should be appropriated to create power to be used outside the basin. So far as Mr. Bingham has learned, this question has never been raised before. STEAMER RUNS INTO FISH DOAT. Occnpnnts Jumped Overboard and One of the Men Is7DroTrned. ASTORIA, Aug. 4. (Special.)

Potter was coming over from Ilwaco last evening, about 10 o'clock, Tand when opposite Smith's Point she ran Into a fishnet that was attached to a boat occupied by John Wilson and his boatpuller, Henry HemL The fish boat was pulled toward the steamer, and to escape being drawn under the paddle wheel the two men Jumped Into the river to ?ave themselves.

He Will Qnlt Rather Than Give Up State Board Will Talce Up Matter Today. OLYMPIA. Aug. 4. (Special.) There is a regular meeting of the State Capitol Commission tomorrow and It promises to J be burdened again with the old war be-, tween the contractor and the architect. Peace had reigned for several months probably because work had been aban donedbut the difficulties arose again apparently as soon as the work was re sumed. In the present difficulty, the architect, according to friends of his, will quit the Job If he does not get his own way this time. The present difficulty arose over the placing In position in the building of stone that Architect Ritchie condemned as unfit ana defective. As to some of the stone condemned by the architect. WASHINGTON. the Superintendent of Construction for the state'.' has stood with the architect, and the Instructions to remove It from the building have been indorsed by Auditor Atkinson, the only member of the commission In the city. Contractor Goss, however, has declined tb remove the stone. He maintains that it is good material and that the architect Is merely beginning a series of abuses of his po sition In order to hamper the construc tion of the building. The nmount of stone Involved Is very small. If neither the architect nor contractor will recede from the positions they havo now assumed, the commission will bo confronted with a serious problem. It Is only by the closest kind of work that the building can now be got ready for the session of the next legislature, and It would be a very critical time in the contraction of the building for the architect to resign his position. It is generally conceded that a new architect could not take up the work where Mr. Ritchie would leave It off and success fully carry It through so that the Legis lature could meet In the new building.
