How Blenheim Won Historic Derby
Only Referee's Report is
Left to Tell Unusual
Episode
AH proceeding Involving tne
permanent disbarment of the late
George W. Joseph. Portland at
torney and republican nominee
for governor, excepting the re
port of tbe referee who presided
at the original trial of the case,
were ordered stricken from the
Mate supreme court records in an
opinion banded down by the
court here Tuesday. Mr. Joseph
!ied suddenly Monday at Camp
Clatsop, where he was a guest of
Brigadier General White.
The court also ordered that the
original opinion be withdrawn,
and that it be not printed in the
official reports of this state. The
action was taken by tbe court in
connection with a petition for re
hearing in the Joseph case, which
m arrived at the offices of the su
preme court shortly after his
death was reported.
The supreme court also handed
down an opinion affirming Judge
Louis P. Hewitt of the Multno
mah county circuit court In a suit
brought by Howard Sutherland,
federal property custodian, to re
cover damages from Edward W.
Wickey, Dow V. Walker and Aug
ust Wemme. resulting from the
rale of H shares of stock in the
E. Henry Wemme company. It
was alleged by Sutherland that
this stock belonged to heirs of E.
Henry Wemme living in German?,
and that it was sold to Wickey at
5101,000, which was far below
its actnal value.
Hal of Stock
Held Fraudulent
The circuit court for Multno
mah county returned a judgment
against the three defendants in
the amount of $(7,506.80, which
it was claimed was the difference
between tho sale price and the
actual value of the stock. Walker
and Wemme subsequently appeal
ed to the supreme court for final
consideration of the case. Suther
land alleged that the sale of the
stock In the E. Henry Wemme
company to Wickey was the re
sult of a conspiracxentered into
by the three defendants for the
purpose of cheating the non-resident
heirs.
Wickey, prior to purchasing the
fetock, was an attorney for the
federal alien property custodian
department In Washington, and
vas sent to Portland to negotiate
the sale of the E. Henry Wemme
company property. Twenty-six
shares of stock in the E. Henry
Wemme company owned by Aug
ust Wemme was sold for $140V
000. or $39,000 in excess of the
returns from the 48 shares of
block sold to Wickey.
The predominating petition was
written by Chief Justice Coshow.
with Justice Bean dissenting.
lmine Loses in
Habeas Corpus Pics
In another opinion the court
dissolved the habeas corpus writ
in the case of August Wemme
against T. M. Hurlburt, sheriff of
Multnomah county. Wemme was
sent to Jail because he failed to
comply with the Judgment of the
Multnomah county circuit court
in the case brought by Howard
Sutherland, federal alien proper
ty custodian, against Wickey,
Walker and Wemme. Wemme
will bow have to satisfy the judg
ment or return to JaiJ.
The supremo court also affirm
ed the decree of the Multtfomah
county circuit court in a suit filed
by Dow Walker, who sought an
Injunction which would prevent
Sheriff Hurlburt from serving an
execution on his body. The lower
court granted a temporary in
junction, which later was set
side. The opinion of the supreme
- court means that Walker also will
liave to comply with the decree in
the case of the alien property
custodian, or go to Jail.

Olga Steeb
Recital Is
Applauded
By OLIVE M. DOAK
The final curtain fell on the
last act of the fifteenth annual
convention of the Oregon Music
Teacher's association Tuesday
night In Waller hall. Willamette
university, and what a rich-toned
curtain, made by the hand of an
artist, Olga Steeb, concert pian
ist, appearing before a Salem
audience for the second time In
her lire.
Miss Steeb placed her notes
like an artist his colors with the
final result a perfect picture,
sometimes made up of sound col
or in large masses as the Rhap
sody. Op. Tfi, No. 1." Brahms,
av.d again the most delicate etch
ing as "Spinning Girls of Caran
tec." Rhene-Baton.
At all time in her playing
there was the characteristic of
crystal clarity of notes and a cer
tain reverent appreciation that
did much to fire the enthusiasm
of her audience. And certainly
she played to an enthusiastic
audiente. Applause rang long
and persistent after each of the
three groups of three and
five numbers each. At the con
clusion of Chopin's "Scherzo C
sharp minor" the audience fairly
begged for another and Miss
Steeb gave "Butterfly Etude,"
Chopin.
Again at the conclusion of her
program she gave an encore, the
solemn "Dedication" by Schu
mann-Liazt before her audience
would let her go. Perhaps of all
the numbers played the interpr
Uve "Spinning Girls of Caran-
tec, Rhene-Baton, combined
most completely the beauty of ex
presslon, delicacy, masterly tech
nique, brilliancy and strength and
intelligence which made tbe com
plete program bo delightfully satisfying.
Tbe two artists programs
brought to Salem by the Music
Teacher's association meant
much to the city for it gave the
puouc a chance to hear artists
not ordinarily heard here. The
Monday night program slaved bv
Josef Borissoff accompanied by
an artist accompanist, Myron Ja
cobean, was memorable, for both
the work of Mr. Borissoff and
Mr. Jacobsea was brilliant. And
a perfect conclusion was the piano
concert or Olga Steeb.
