Final Account Set Aside for
FraudReal Estate Ageht.Wins.
e
Neither the city ordinances authoriz
ing the bulletins of wharves at the foot
of Morrison street nor the agreements
made by the Portland Bridge Company
gave the wharf owners any vested right
to have the passageway remain open.
An agreement to open a street, made
by one who does not, own the property,
does not constitute a covenant running
with the land.
A court of equity has Jurisdiction
to set aside an order of the County
Court .approving- an administrator's ac
count, if it was procured by fraud.
SALEM. Or., April IS. (Special.) Tho
Supreme Court today sustained the right
of the City of Portland to close the open
ing in the middle of Morrison street at the
west approach to Morrison-street bridge.
This decision was one of five handed
down today, three of which were re
versals and two affirmances. The decis
ions. In brief, were as follows:
Mead vs. Portland.
John Mead et al., appellants, vs. City
of Portland et al., respondents; from.
Multnomah County. Alfred F. Sears, Jr.,
A. I. Frazer and M. C. George, Judges;
affirmed. Opinion by Justice Bean.
This was a suit to enjoin the defend
ant from closing a passageway in the
approach to Morrison-street bridge, lead
ing to the lower floors of plaintiffs'
wharfs. The plaintiffs set forth In their
complaint the ordinance of 1S7S granting
them the privilege of constructing a wharf
and of opening a passageway, which
"passageway and all those portions of
Eald wharf extending over and into the
street shall be subject to regulation by
the Common Council as a part of said
street and sidewalk." It is also alleged
that in 1S78 the Legislature authorized
the Portland Bridge Company to con
struct the Morrison-street bridge, which
Jbrldge was built in 1SS6. "While the bridge
was belnr built, and at subsequent times,
the bridge company threatened to close
up the passageway, but a suit having
Ibeen instituted, the company agreed In
consideration of the dismissal of the suit
that the passageway should remain open
forever. In 1S&3 the bridge was conveyed
to the City of Portland. The plaintiffs
contended that through these transactions
and the building and use of their wharfs,
they acquired a vested right which the
City of Portland cannot deprive them
of without just compensation. In the
lower court a decree was rendered in
favor of the city and the plaintiffs ap
pealed. In affirming this decision the Supreme
Court follows the decision in the case
of Brand vs. Portland, 38 Or., 79, so far as
it Is applicable. Upon the question
whether plaintiffs have acquired a prop
erty right in the passageway, ,the court
Jiolds that none of the ordinances au
thorized the plaintiffs to construct a
wharf at the terminus of Morrison street
except in front of their property. "It is
expressly provided," says the opinion,
"that the whole of the passageways along
the street and those portions of the wharf
extending over and Into the street 'shall
be subject to regulation by the Common
Council as a part of said street and side
walks, thus manifesting an Intention to
preserve the public character of the street
and not to vest in the grantee any rights
or privileges therein not enjoyed by the
general public. . . . The" fact that by
reaKon of the proximity of their property
to the street they were enabled to make
snore use of it and its extension than
others did, Is a mere difference in degree
and not in kind. The ordinance did not
give to the plaintiffs or their predecessors
In interest authority to build a wharf at
the foot of the street for commercial pur
poses, but rather conferred the right to
Improve the street by extending it into
the river so that they could the more
readily reach their own property there
from, and the fact that their improve
ments have been rendered valueless on ac
count of the subsequent change in the
grade of the street does not entitled them
to compensation." It is also held that
the bridge company had no authority to
make an agreement that the passageway
in the approach should remain open for
ever. Lenz vs. Blake-McFali.
Lenz &. Lenz, appellant, vs. Blake-Mc-Fall
Company, respondents: from Mult
nomah County. Arthur L. Frazer, Judge,
reversed and remanded. Opinion by Chief
Justice Moore.
This was a suit to recover a balance
of 5418.30 alleged to be due upon a sale
of paper boxes. The defense was that the
!boxes were warranted to be grease-proof,
tout were not, and that the failure in
quality could not be discovered until the
boxes had been placed upon the market.
As soon as it was discovered, the boxes
Bold were paid for and the remainder
tendered to plaintiffs Defendant claim
ed $418.30 damages for breach of warranty.
Judgment in the court below was for de
fendant. The plaintiff proved the sale and de
livery of the goods. The defendant in
troduced evidence tending to show that
a certain quality was warranted, but
that the goods were not as represented.
No evidence was offered to show the dif
ference in value or damage sustained.
The court was asked to instruct the jury
in favor of the plaintiff for the full
amount demanded, but this was refused,
and the jury was instructed that If the
goods were not as represented the plaintiff
could not recover. This the Supreme
Court holds was error.
"The defendant had a reasonable time
to inspect the goods after their receipt,
and If they did not correspond with those
ordered, the warranty in respect thereto
anight have rendered that part of the
contract tantamount to a condition prece
dent, thoreby authorizing the defendant
to repudiate Its agreement. The defend
ant having sold a part of the boxes be
fore discovering that they were not suit
able for the purpose for which they were
intended, thereby accepted them, and was
entitled only to-a counter-claim for such
damages naturally resulting from a breach
of tho alleged warranty."
The case is remanded for trial so that
the question whether the boxes were war
ranted my be determined and so that evi
dence may be taken upon the question
of damages, if there was a warranty and
a breach thereof.
Peninsula Company vs. Zahm.
Peninsula Real Estate Company et
al., respondents, versus John A Zahm,
appellant, from Multnomah County, M.
C George, Judge, reversed; opinion by
Justice Wolverton.
This was a suit to compel the specific
performance of an agreement to open a
highway from the east end of Ballan
tyne street to Spauldlng- street, on the
tract upon which Portland University
was located. The plaintiffs and their
rvredecossors were parties to iho con
tract while Portland University agreed
to open tho street. At the time the
contract was made Portland University
had no Interest in the property over
which the easement was to be given.
The Supreme Court holds that the cove
nant did not run with the land. Zahm,
having purchased subsequently from
the university, and without notice that
the contract had been, made, is not
bound thereby, and plaintiffs cannot
compel specific performance by him,
though they might have compelled the
university to perform its agreement
while it owned the land. The decision
of tho Circuit Court having been
against the defendant, is reversed.
Good vs. Smith.
George Good, respondent, versus TV.
K. Smith, appellant, from Multnomah
County, M. C. George, Judge, affirmed;
opinion by Justice Bean.
This was a suit in which the plaintiff,
a real estate "broker; recovered judg
ment for 51200 as commission on tho
sale of the Multnomah Box Factory.
The Supreme Court holds that, if the
real estate broker, while the contract
between himself and the property-owner
was in force, produced a purchaser
readyable and willing to take the de
fendant's interest at tho price agreed
upon, he thereby earned his commission,
whether the sale was consummated or
not.
Froebrich vs. Lane.
David Froebrich, appellant, versus D.
F. Lane, administrator. respondent,
from Marion County, R. P. Boise, Judge,
reversed; opinion by Justin "Wolverton.
Held, that when heirs of an estate
are prevented from making objections
to a final account by the fraud or de
ception of the administrator, a court of
equity has jurisdiction to set aside tho
order of tho County Court allowing tho
account.
Rehearlngs Denied.
Rehearlngs were denied In tho cases
of Hall vs. Abraham, Portland vs. Tick,
Carlyle vs. Sloan and HIbbard vs. Hen
derson. Motion to recall mandate in case of
Ford vs. Gilbert was overruled.
Motion to vacate default judgment In
case of Dowell vs. Bolt was overruled.
Motion to strike out cost bill allowed
in case of Smith vs. "Wilcox, and Smith
allowed attorney and filing fee only.
Same order in Smith vs. Turple.
WASHINGTON SUPREME COURT
Decision Reversed in Wenatchee Ir
rigation Suit.
OLYMPIA, April 18. The Supremo
Court has reversed the case of P. D
Sutter et ux, respondents, vs. "Wenatchee
"Water Power Company, appellant. Tho
water company maintains an irrigating
ditch. Sutter's lands lie at the terminus,
and a furrow was plowed across his land
and around it to drain the waste water
into the Columbia River. Sutter brought
this action, alleging in his complaint that
the ditch was improperly constructed, and
In June, 1900, the furrow failed to carry
off the waste water, which overflowed
on his land, damaging it to the amount
of 51000. A demurrer to tho complaint
filed by the company on the ground that
the action was not filed until more than
two years after the damages occurred was
overruled, the case 'proceeded to trial and
Sutter obtained a verdict for 5300.
The Supreme Court today affirmed tho
judgment for 53000 obtained by the Wash
ington Iron "Works, of Seattle, against
James C. McNaught, on a written con
tract of guarantee made by McNaught,
guaranteeing payment by the Boston &
Alaska Transportation Company of all

Mining & Transportation Company. Three
weeks ago they opened a handsome suite
of rooms In a downtown office building.
In the daily papers they Insorted adver
tisements stating that 100 men were want
ed to go to Alaska at once. They said
they owned valuable gold mines at Golo
vin Bay, Alaska, and that they needed
men to work them. "They proposed to pay
eacn man o a aay lor every aay ne
worked and in addition to give him trans
portation, to the North. Tho considera
tion for this they carefully explained
was a deposit of 550 from each man, sim
ply as a guarantee of good faith. At the
end of 60 days the Andersons promised
they would return the 550.
For the 550 the Andersons gave each
man a ticket which read that It entitled
him to transportation to Golovln Bay on
the steamship Nome City, due to sail
May 15. The police Investigated tho case
and found that the Andersons had made
no arrangements for transportation on
the Nome City, and that the ship's own
ers did not know tho busy promoters.
When these facts were learned by the
police, the office was at once raided and
the men placed under arrest.

liminary hearing of the Hyde-JDlmond
land fraud cases was continued today be
fore United States Commissioner Hea
cock. Dimond, one of the defendants,
was recalled, but before proceeding with
his testimony. Attorney Wheeler said
that there was no understanding that
Dimond was to become a witness for tho
state. Dimond then testified that while
In Washington he had attended to no
new business of Hyde's, but confined him
self to the business before the Land De
partment. Asked If he ever undertook
to do any business before leaving Cali
fornia for Washington, he answered in
the negative, but admitted he had served
Benson, all instructions having been giv
en by letter. He admitted having in his

himself and Benson, which Wheeler Im
mediately offered in evidence. This was
objected to by J. C. Campbell, Benson's
attorney, and also by Counsel Heney.
Judge Heacock, however, admitted tho
letters In evidence, saying he considered
it a "monstrous doctrine" that an at

LIGHT RUN OF SALMON
FISH FRIGHTENED FROM THE
RIVER BY THE FRESHET.
Floating Driftwood Interferes With
Gillnetters and Trappers-Where
Seiners Are at Work.
ASTORIA, Or., April IS. (Special.) The
run of fish still continues exceptionally
light and the canneries are cooking only
every other day, a thing that Is neces
sary to keep the fish from spoiling. The
old-time theory is being advanced that
the slack run Is occasioned by the flood
carrying fresh water so far out to sea
that the fish will not come in. There is
considerable driftwood floating in the
lower river and this interferes greatly
with tho gillnetters and trappers. The
Corbett seining ground on White Island
and tho Elliott ground near Svensen have
begun fishing, as they are so situated that
the high water does not Interfere with
them. Tho Altoona Packing Company's
new cannery at Altoona, Wash., Is not
yet completed, but It will be ready for
operation the latter part of tho week.

WHAT MRS. LAVIGNE PEAKED IS

An Unnatural Decline Made Her
Think She Was Going Into Con
sumption Until She Acted
Upon the Advice of a
Friend.
"I was going: lntoan unnatural de
cline," says ilrs. Charles Iravlgne, of
No. 1317 Third avenue, Detroit, Mich.,
'and my health was seriously low when
I began using Dr. "Williams' Pink Pills
for Pale People. They cured me.
"I wa3 -weak and thin, nervous and
without appetite, took cold easily and
was afraid of consumption. I could not
sleep, I was always tired and worn out,
my color all went away and I felt
miserable.
"Good doctors treated me, but failed
to do me any good, and I was discour
aged about ever getting better until a
friend told me of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills for Pale People. I began to take
them and kept on till I had used three
boxes. .
"By that time I was an entirely dif
ferent person. The nervousness had all
gone, I could eat and sleep, I gained in
weight and felt strong and well. My
friends began to remark on the color in
my cheeks, and I told them Dr. Will
lams' Pink Pills had done It and had re
stored me to health. That was several
years ago, but from that day to this I
have retained my health and strength."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peo
ple are of inestimable value to women
when they are disturbed by fears of
physical ills that make their lives
wretched. They also restore to health
men, women and children who are thin,
pale, nervous and depressed. They em
body Dr. Williams' wonderful discov
ery and have cured stubborn cases of
locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, St.
Vitus' dance, sciatica, neuralgia, ner
vous headache, the after-effects of the
grip, palpitation of the heart, pale and
sallow complexions, and all forms of
weakness in either male or female.
They are sold by all druggist?,
