SALEM. Or.. Feb. 23. (Special.) "From the whole case It appears that the defendant, through its president, decoyed an ignorant old woman, who relied upon the credit of the bank, into making an equivocal contract whereby she must probably lose her money un less the defendant pays it, as in good ' morals it ought to do." This was the substance of an opinion by the Supreme Court today affirming a verdict of a Douglas County jury in favor of Elizabeth Byron against the First National Bank of Roseburg. The plaintiff, according to the testi mony, gave the president, T. R. Sheri dan, permission to lend her money at 7 per cent interest and take 1 per cent for the bank. She sued for a balance of $3,254.25. which the bank had re fused to pay upon the grounds that the president had made the transaction io his individual capacity.

Court at Dallas Rales Against Young Portland Mother Lawyer to Ap peal Case to Supreme Court. rALLAS. Or.. Feb. 23. (Special.) Mrs. Mollie Bowers, the young Portland mother, failed today to obtain pos siimi nf her hnhv. Marion Bowers. 4 years old. on a writ of habeas corpus. The child is in the custody of Mr. and Mrs. Milt B. Grant, of this city, who are carrying on a legal battle to keep her. Circuit .ludge II. IL Belt who denied the writ of habeas corpus, held that the jurisdictional fight be tween the Juvenile Court of Multno mah Countv and the Juvenile Court of folk County over the custody of the child ii1 not nave anyinms do with the case. He declared that the home the child had with Mr. ana Mrs. Grant was a good one and better than the mother could provide, ana that the best interests of the child de manded that she be left in the hands of tho Grants. The Grants in their answer to airs. Bowers' petition sought to show the others reDUtation was Dad ana in troduced hearsay evidence.

Walter u. Tooze. Jr., representing the Juvenile Court of Multnomah Coun ty in its fight on behalf of Mrs. Bowers, sienifled his intention to appeal the case to the Supreme Court, and asked for and was granted 30 days within which to prepare his bill of excep tions.

Affixing of the emergency clause was proposed by Senator Taylor, sponsor of the bill, to silence this opposition, the city officials declaring that the state io r,t ,uHv fnr anfh a radical measure and pleading for two years' delay.
