VERN EK IS
NAMED IN SUIT
F(
PORTLAND, Ore., Oot. 10, (AP)
A will probated In New York more
than 100 years ago and a court order
of 104B which assertedly bad a direct
Influence on the fortune of the late
John Jacob Astor are Involved In a
ult filed In federal district court
here today,
, The suit was filed by Jesae Jacob
Emertck, of Tacoma, Wash., lnvi
vldually and In behalf of all the helra
at law and next of kin of John Nich
olas Emerlck. Defendants named are
- Vernon J, Emerlck, Otto M. Jones,
Merton J. Emerlck, Dee w. Emeries,
.Edna Cranahan, Linden Ray Emerlck
and others.
i The bill recites that John Nicholas
'.Emerlck, a partner of the late Mr.
Astor, died In Philadelphia Decem
ber IS. 1818, leaving an estate, then
appraised at 1,000,000, in trust for
-90 years. Emerlck was survived by
several brothers but by no direct de
scendents. The plaintiff alleges he Is
a. dlreot descendent of one of these
' brothers.
The will was probated In New York
and In 1849 a Judicial determination
of the heirs was made but the court
refused to distribute the estate and
decreed It-must remain in trust until
1008 as provided by the win.
The New York court order, said to
h necessary for a distribution oi ine
estate, has disappeared from the court
files and Is now in me possession
Vernon J. Emerlck, the piainim ai-
lftO-AI.
, The petitioner seeks an Injunction
J restraining Emerlck from selling this
.decree to the Astor family who, the
complalntant says, are anxious to ob
. tain It because certain provisions of
the lit John Nicholas Emencks wiu
directly af footed' the fortune of his
i nsrtner the basis oi tno prewjuv -
tor fortune.
. Th. oommaint seeks to bring Into
court the 1840 court order now. that
- the estate may be finally distriDuieu.
. Vernon J. Emerlck and Dee W. Em--erick
are the only defendants Iden
tified as residing In Oregon.
Mr. Emerlck apprised by telephone
last night of the filing of the suit,
. said it was the first he ever heard of
the complaint.
Relative to the "order ot distribu
tion," Mr. Emerlck says, "It is not
. in my possession, but wish It was."
Be characterized the charge as
. groundless, -
Emerlok, former mayor of this olty,
and well known,' has been Interested
In the case for the past four years.
A suit Is now pending In the New
York State courts on the matter. Mr.
7merlck several years ago attended a
meeting of the heirs In the middle
west.

Cement blocks and a watch dog,
yesterday afternoon, entered the
Ewlng-Sanford row, which has been
brewing In the Ashland district for
more than a week, and as a result,
Mrs. Harry Ewlng. upon whom most
of the blocks landed, Is In the Bac-
red Heart hospital receiving treat
ment for head and back Injuries.
Th contested right of the Ewlngs
to use the road, which passes
through the Floyd Sanford ranch.
Inspired the battle. It Is alleged.
With face and bead covered with
blood and bruises, Mrs. Ewlng ac
companied her husband to the coun
ty court house here to exhibit the
latest developments In the contro
versy. She was Immediately trans
ferred to the hospital, where the ex-
tent of her lnjurlea has not been
determined.
The Ewlngs' visit at County Judge
Sparrow's office was preceded earlier
in the day by a call from the San-
fords, who asked the aid of the
Judge and district attorney In keep
ing th Ewlngs off their road. They
were Instructed as during previous
interviews to start Injunction pro
ceedings If they had cause. They
returned to Ashland. A little later
the Ewlngs arrived, showing gory
signs or defeat.
Mrs. Ewlng was approaching the
mall box when attacked by Mrs. San
ford, according to her story. When
her husband attempted to come to
her aid, Mr. Sanford and his dog
appeared on wo scene. The dog was
set on Ewlng and followed by a
shower of cement blocks, most of
which was Intercepted by Mrs. Ew
lng. Just what brought the battle
to an end was not told, but Mrs.
Ewlng was knocked down and all
"but dragged out" before the cli
max.
Earl Smith and Paul Held accom
panied Mr. and Mrs. Ewlng to Medford.
The disputed road Is off Walker
avenue running east. It passes
through the Sanford ranch and
forms th only entrance to the Ew
lng property. The Ewlngs call it-
public" and the Sanfords oall It
"private." The latter, while calling
on the Judge this morning, stated
that the Ewlnge had twisted down
their fence to cross the road and
then "flapped their wings and crow
ed about It."
The Sanfords are recent arrivals
In the valley from Mexico and so
the story goes "figured to show the
Ewlngs how laws art, made in their
country."
The cas Is strictly one w.hlch in
volves private rights and Just what
action the district attorney will take,
now that the battle has become
more ,than verbal, was not announc
ed yesterday.
