AGAINST 0. R. & N.
F. V. Martin Given $2758.25
Damages; Company Failed
. to 'Produce Cars. ,
(Salctt Boreaa of The Journal.)
" Salem,- Or.. JDee. 87F. V. Martin,
surviving partner of the firm of Rlggs
& Co.. and Rlggs & Martin, was awarded
judgment for $2768.25 and $600 attor
ney's fees in addition against the Ore
gon Railway A: 'Navl cation jompany tot
failure of that railroad corporation to
deliver cars as provided by the railroad
eommlaslon act of this estate, enacted
In 1907. . The firms In whose behalf the
action was brought by Mr. Martin were
dealers In fresh fruits, bought and sold
In Idaho and Oregon. ,
In this case the supreme court up
holds article 28 of the railroad act
which waa attacked in this case by the
Oregon Railway & Navigation company's
attorneys, and which Is one of the most
important and most essential provisions
of the entire enactment and.makea.lt
obligatory upon railroads to deliver cars
within a certain number of days after
the order Is filed in writing by shipper.
The number of days allowed for deliv
ery depends upon the number ot cars
ordered. ,- n---- v.-.s
In this ease Mr. Martin was able fo
prove considerable damage by failure of
the company to deliver the cars accord
ing to law. An important point was
determined la this case relative to the
jurisdiction of the railroad laws of this
case because the shipment for which
ears were wanted was Interstate and
the corporation's attorneys argued that
only federal laws applied, but the su
preme court held that the Oregon rail
road act did not conflict In any par
ticular with s the interstate commerce
law, but merely covered matters not
covered by the federal laws and was
therefore properly within Its constituted
powers. ' "-.V" .-p- 'V;.l-:i":-r-', i
