In the T J Black
warehouse suits, being the case ot H C
Davis et al vs the Portland Flouring
Mills Company et al Saturday in the
circuit court. Judge Boise rendered a
decision m favor ot the plaiutitls. The
effect of the decision is to aw aid the
grain in tile w arehouses to the farmers,
and that those who buy wheat In a
warehouse must know that the ware­
houseman lias authority to sell it, and
that the risk is tun by the buyer and
not the storer of wheat.
Tlie decision is against the Portland
Flouring Mills Co for 9296 bushels al
4!» cents and against the ¡Salem Flour­
ing Mills Co for 3977 bushela at 49
ecu's.
The w heat stored in the Derry
warehouse and sold to Balfour, Guthrie

of the Pori Ian I Flouring Mills Co for
$5695 and if 1 he Salem Flouring Mills

The ease will no doubt be appealed
