The investigation by a special com mittee of the City Council into the al leged furniture "trust" was completed yesterday morning when four witnesses were examined at the City Hall under the direction of Assistant City Attorney Grant and Chairman Vaughn. The evi dence of those who 'have testified be fore the committee from time to timo will now be transcribed and will be pre sented to City Attorney Kavanaugh. If he deems that there" are grounds to prosecute. It will be his duty, under the ordinance, to file actions in the Munici pal Court. After the morning session of the spe cial investigating committee. Chairman Vaughn, who was the only Councilman present, announced that tomorrow at 10 A. M. the searchlight will be turned on the alleged illegal combination known as the Draymen's Association, of which Councilman Drlscoll is a member. This was one of the concerns specifically named in the Council at the time the committee was appointed, and it has been regarded as peculiar that the fur niture trade was the first to be taken up. in view of that fact. There Is a persistent rumor in official circles to the effect that the City Coun cil will tomorrow behead the investi gating committee, thus putting an end to investigations that are scheduled to be made if such action is not taken. Chairman Vaughn declares that the committee, if its power is not cut off. will investigate everything that looks like a "trust," and says there are "lots of things" In Portland that very much resemble trusts. A good deal of pressure is said to have been brought to bear to behead this spe cial committee for at least two reasons. In the first place. Mayor Lane named his political friend and champion. Mr. Vaughn, as chairman, put Councilman Concannon, Democrat and Lane backer. In as another member and put on Coun cilman Belding as a "filler" The latter is a Republican and member of the fac tion opposed to Mayor Lane. He is author of the ordinance under which the cases are being heard, but he has attended only two of the meetings so far. being absent yesterday also. Coun cilman Concannon was at home in bed with a bad cold. Chairman Vaughn, however, refused to postpone the ses sion and proceeded alone. After finish ing with the furniture business, he de clared that the committee will meet to morrow morning at 10 o'clock, whether headless or not, to take up the probing of the draymen. The investigation into the furniture trade in Portland has developed the fact that not one of the wholesalers or man ufacturers of furniture will sell to the Independent Furniture Company, to an auction house or to majl-order establish ments; but it has not proved the ex istence of any "combine" to uphold prices, and it is not thought at all likely that any suits will be filed as a result of the probing. The reasons for the ban against the dealers named are pure ly of a protective nature, it being ex plained that the dealers must guard against concerns that make it a prac tice to cut prices, as this, it is declared, ruins the trade and makes it impossible for the manufacturer to continue his output. Those who testified yesterday were J. C. Roberts, of Peters & Roberts; Ira F. Powers; W. H. Beharrell, Jr.. pur chasing agent for the Powers Furniture Company, and R. E. Bristow, manager for the Northwest Furniture Works. Each denied the existence of any agree ment as to wholesale or retail prices and each swore that since the Federal indictments and subsequent fines of last Summer, the furniture trade has been demoralized; that business is poor and that prices are cyt to a point seldom known in the history of the city. TRUSTS CAN" SUE FOR MOXEY Tjocal Ordinance Limited in Restric tions Says Court. According to a decision handed down yesterday by Judge Cleland- In the Cir cuit Court, In the case of the Gauld Com pany against Stanley & Shoemaker, the anti-trust ordinance recently passed by the City Council does not prevent mem bers of local trusts from enforcing pay ment for goods sold. Suit was brought by the Gauld Company, dealers in plumb ing supplies, to collect for materials fur nished the defendants, Stanley & Shoe maker, who interposed a demurrer, alleg ing that the plaintiff company was a member of a wholesale plumbing trust which refuses to sell goods to any but li censed plumbers. The court overruled this demurrer, saying that in the absence of a state law the city ordinance does not invalidate any contractsexccpt those which promote the purposes of the com bination. "It is true," said the court, "that in a certain class of cases a contract rendered Illegal by the local law cannot be en forced in the courts, 'but this rule, it seems by the clear weight of authority, has only a limited application. The rulo preventing recovery Is limited to those contracts which are made for the pur pose of furthering the illegal combination or of promoting its objects. "Here the city ordinance is the only law denouncing such a combination as that of which the Gauld Company is al leged to be a member. In the absence of a state statute establishing the con trary rule, where the contract is an Inde pendent one and rests on an Independent consideration, the fact that persons sell ing material may be members of an il legal combination is not a defense availa ble in an action to recover for materials sold."
