Jadge Lanirrith'i Action in Penalising AH Parties In Fight la Dis pleasing to Employers. The fining of both complainants and defendants in the assault and battery case growing out of strike troubles by Judge Langguth. of the Municipal Court, is not entirely acceptable and the case will be carried into the Cir cuit Court, according to Harold M. Sawyer, attorney for the Willamette Iron & Steel Works and the Employers' Association, who assisted in the prose cution. D. H. Guy and C. E. Wymore. strik ers, charged with assaulting I. S. and C. B. Gill, non-striking workers at the plat, were each fined $20 by Judge Langguth on Friday night. But the court, holding that the Qills. who, the testimony disclosed, had pursued and chastised one of their assailants, were also guilty of assault and battery and imposed fines of $10 upon the com plainants. It is against this decision that Attorney Sawyer's protest, backed by the company and the Employers' Association, is advanced. "We shall ask for a writ of review, it is probable, that will bring up the whole record to - the Circuit Court." Attorney Sawyer stated yesterday. "Our contention is tnat the record shows on its face that the Municipal Court was wholly without jurisdiction to enter any judgment against anybody except! the defendants. Wymore and Guv. T That his jurisdiction was established when he requested Deputy City Attor ney Stadter to draw up a complaint against tne original complainants and when this complaint was filed is the contention of Judge Langguth.
