FRAUD IS CHARGED
J. B. Dickover Is Said to Have
I; Made $30,000 in Land.
DEAL DECLARED SECRET
Santiam Fruit Colony Wants Injunc
.' tion Against Alleged Spreading
of l-'alse Reports and Prevent-
lng; Mortgage Foreclosure.
-' Thirty thousand dollars is the profit
J. B. Dickover, of Portland, is alleged
to have made hy fraud from the San
tiam Fruit Colony, according to a com
plaint filed in the Circuit Court yes
terday. ' Mr. Dickover threatens to foreclose
a mortgage and has been forcing the
Fruit Colony into, insolvency by the
Spreading of untrue reports, it is
charged by the colony plaintiff, which
demands an accounting for all 6ecret
-profits and an order restraining the
institution of foreclosure proceedings
High financing in orchard lands is
the charge of the complaint, in effect.
It recites that Mr. Dickover in 1910
schemed to sell, as president of one
company, to another company, of which
'he was president, 804 acres of land in
Linn County at a price of $30,000 in
advance of the price for which he con
'tracted, originally, to buy the land.
Company Declared Deceptive.
- The Santiam Fruit Colony was or
ganized by Mr. Dickover in May, 1910,
with 112,000 capital etock. lie then
'.bought the Cawrse farm, in Linn Coun
ty, for $40,000, on time payments. The
title was made out to the J. B. Dick
over Company.
The J. B. Dickover Company was
nothing more nor less, recites the com
plaint, "than an artificial corporate de
vice, used by the said J. B. Dickover
as a matter of convenience to enable
him. In his opinion, to avoid success
fully the consequences of committing
fraud by Interposing the ficiitioue,
separate legal entity of this thing
called a corporation between himself
and the parties whom he had defrauded
or proposed to defraud."
The farm was sold to the Santiam
Fruit Colony by the J. B. Dickover
Company late in 1910 for $70,350. Mr.
Dickover was president of both corporations.
Profit Not Reported. Say Plaint.
Mr. Dickover Is said to have willfully
concealed from the directors of the
Fruit Colony that a $30,000 profit was
being made by the Dickover corpora
tion in the transaction.
The Santiam Fruit Colony of 804
acres was divided into tracts of five
acres each and planted to fruit trees.
Of the land 450 acres has been pur
chased by 80 persons, on contracts, on
which $35,000 is still due. Payments
on the contracts have been Interrupted
by the circulation by Mr. Dickover and
his son, J. W. Dickover. of untruthful
reports, on. the finances of the com
pany, it is charged.
Mr. Dickover holds a mortgage for
$lo,000. given him as the balance on
the purchase price of $70,350. As prin
cipal and interest on the deal. Mr. Dick
over and his company have been paid
$25,500, and $12,000 was paid for stock
in the Fruit Colony, when the directors
found that they had to assume a mort
gage for $30,250 given by Mr. Dickover
to Mr. Cawrse.
In the light of the $30,250 mortgage
given in the first instance, it is as
sumed that Mr. Dickover paid down
lees than $10,000 for the property, for
which small initial outlay he is said
to have figured on a profit of $30,000.
The complaint refers to this as a "se
cret profit." -
