FOUR APPEAL CASES ENDED Supreme Court Hands horn Some Important De- . . clsions - t FAILURE TO PROVE EXISTENCE OF A CORPORATION PROVES DISASTROUS THE CbNTEMPT OF " COURT CASES AGAINST O'DAT & TARPLBY REVERSED. - The Supreme Court yesterday handed down decisions In four cases, recently trhd on appeal. They are: f; " Qoodate Lumber Company; res pendent, vs. W. A. Shaw, appellant;' ; appeal from Marlon county, Hon. , ' George II. Burnett, Judge: reversed' and remanded. Opinion by. Chief , Justice F. A. Moore. Thli was an action to recover on r promissory note for about $400. At the trial the defendant questioned the cor porate existence of the plaintiff, and a witness was Introduced by plaintiff' to prove that articles of incorporation had been prepared, and a copy of tha ar ticles were Introduced in eveldence over defendant's objection. The defendant Hied a motion for non-suit 'which was overruled.' and the case being submitted the court charged the Jury that suffi cient evidence had not been Introduced tending to prove the-existence of the corporation, and the Jury . returned verdict f or h plaintiff. The appellate court holds that a copy of the articles of incorporation, unsupplemented by other proof, was Inadequate ' to prove the existence of the corporation; that a rtifled cory of the articles, as filed In the office of the Secretary of Stats and w ith the county clerk was required to prove their existences further, that It would be . necessary to show that the stock t the corporation had been sub . scribe-i, and thit a board of directors and ofScers had been elected. Henc. it U held that the trial court erred in insu-uctlng' the Jury that the document intrx3iel f as a:2clent for that pur pse. It la held the court erred In ref ining to grant the motion for a noa il a a a t Pries : i ALE In about 10 tlaya we ex pect to Vegin to -enlarge "the Loader ' Store in "order to malce ' room ,for . the Boston Store stock, as we are now very much crowded in both stores.

IC i f f Hanna. JuJge; tfflrmtd. Opinion ; ' by Associate Justice C. K. Wolver-. ' on- r. ;t t u: ; : : u ' ; j , y. y u t -V'f i This was an action to recover damages for the death of Enoch L. Moon, who was a lineman in the employ of the de fendant corporation, .and was killed; while repairing a light wire In Orants Pass. The wires were dead when J began i work on them, and nesjltgence, Is charge! by the olalntiff against th defendant, in not notifying the engineer at the light station to not turn on the current.. While deceased was working on the wire the current was turned on and defendant killed. The defense te tlfled that word had been sent Ty a bi cycle rldir to th power house not to turn on the electric current, but It ras received too late by the engineer, It was shown that the usual mode of com munication was by telephone, but this was not used on this occasion. ' The court holds, where the negligence of the master Is combined with the negligence of a fellow servant In producing the In Jury which would not -have happened but for the negligence of the 'piasi. and the person injured ts htmselt trea from negligence, the negligence of the fellow, servant will not relieve K- mas3 ter from' liability if or the Injuries so received. ' The appellate court, there fore, affirms the decision of the lower court. ' ' T-"? iZ Ellis' O. Hughes, appellant, vs., ' - Charles E. Ladd, and F. B. PraU, ; respondents; appeal from. Ssulmo- mah county. Hons J. B. 'Cleland, Alfred . F., Sears, Jr " and M. C. George, judges in Joint session; af-. , ' firmed. Opinion Per Curiam. This was a suit by XHUs G. Hughes to ' MRS. yj s omp-l Charles E. Laid to pay and ischarge two certain promiyKry notes, d o Ladd and other persons, composing the Snance: committee, of the Chamber of Commerce, as Joint makers, and the other by the Chamber of Commerce, the naymc-nt of the latter guaranteed by the finance committee . The contro versy grew out of transactions connect ed With the erection of the Chamber of Commerce building In Portland. The coutenljon of Hughes was that, as -between the parties to the notes, he was a surety, and entitled to have Ladd as price! pal exonerate him by paying the obligations. The appellate court. In dis cussing the contention and .the ease aays: - s . --.v m "We find no basis for such a conten tion In the record, but deem. It unneces sary to state at length the reason for our conclusion. The case was tried be fore th judges pf the Circuit Court of Multnomah county, sitting In banc, and an elaborate and carefully prepared op Ion,: covering the , whole ground. , was filed by Judgr v Cleland, In behalf of himself and associates, with the reas- i onlngs and conclusions of Which we are labor, therefore, for ua to o over the same matters again, it Is sufficient to say that,- after an examination of the record, -we are all agreed 'that the de cree should be' afBrmed-" ..''

P. C McCann died " In , Multnomah counfy, and the county court appointed J. S. Cooper as administrator.

H. McMAHAN DENIES THAT IN DICATIONS QF , OIL HAVE BEEN FOUND,. BUT IS IIOPEFUL OF DISCOVERINO A GOOD VEIN OF COAL. ' The drilling for coal on the Blair ForT ward place, near Wiilard, Is progressing quite favorably for all concerned and up to last evening a depth of about 425 feet had been reached and. while the Indications are all that could be wjsned for "or were expected, as yet nothing has been brought' up which,; insures the striking of coal, oil or other valuable mineral products,. but the promoters are In no. wise discourag-ed for they have every reason to bejieve that their ef forts will be rewarded. The SUverton- an, of? Friday, July 11th, Issue, has the following to say about the venture; "We visited the Blair Forward farm. where' a drill ' has been working the past Week, last Sunday. The men who are engaged in the. enterprise certainly mean, business. They , have on the ground a -fine power drill, a ten horse power bolter and all kinds of tools. V The shaft Is being sunk about two hundred yards below the id coal tu nel oti the opposite hill-side. The drlfi has not moved since last Saturday noon All specimens' of ore have been gath ered up and it is impossible for one to know, what has been found. Two oil experts were on the ground last Sun day and- from all indications, and re-, ports oil has been found. "We were told ' that last Saturday night oil was flowing from the pipes, but we give the report for what It Is worth. But they have evidently found something, as the drilling company has contract to drill 2000 feet and they have drilled owy 250 feet,.- They would not stop at this depth unless either oil or coal In oaying quantities had .been discovered. If oil has been found.; as reported, Sllverton will boom as it nev er boomed before. The report is almost too good to be true, but If It Is true," The; above article was submitted to L. 21. McMahan, of this city, one of the prime movers in the enterprise, for hi perusaLaad when asked for a conilrmZ tlon or at least a statement, upon the matter, said; "The drill Is down 42$ feet In sandy clay rolc or conglomerate in which Clay predominates.. We have neither found oil nor any indication of it, nor have wej found , coaL ' So far, we ihave found nothing that is prohibitive and somewhere between where we are and China there may be coal, or even oil.
