SUIT FOR $500, 900.


Sachs 4 Co., of San francisco.
Early last November an agree
ment was made between Max Gold
smith of the firm of J.. Goldsmith e.
Co., wholesale dry goods dealers,
and Levi and Isham White, OF this
city, to enter into partnership with
the firm of l.. II NJ. Sachs & Co.. of
San Francisco, for the purpose OF
carrying on the wholesale dry goods
business in Portland, San Francisco
and New York; said pa tnership to
begin Jan. 1881. For some reason,
the San Francisco men did not Car.
ry out their portion of the agreement,
and the Portland men have begun
suit against them in the United
States circuit court at San Francisco
for $500, 900.
The complaint of Levi White
against Martin Sachs, Sanford Sachs,
Emanuel l.. Heller and Samuel W.
Heller, sets forth that in November
last the defendants and Max Gold
smith, Isham White and plaintiff
formed partnership to deal in dry
goods, the business to be carried on
in New York, San Francisco, and
Portland, Oregon, under the firm
name OF Heller, Sachs IL Co. in New
York, Sachs, White, Heller & Co.
in San Francisco, and Goldsmith,
White, Sachs Il Co. in Portland, the
capital to be 81 600, 900 and the
partnership to begin January l,
1881. Each partner was to pay $780,
900, on or before January 3, 1881,
and further assessment to be levied
when majority of the partners
should SO desire. The articles fur
Their provide when and where such
assessments should be paid, who
were to constitute the resident mem
hers of the respective firms, the
terms of the purchase of merchan-
disc from Il. e. NJ. Sachs ~ Co. and
Il. Goldsmith ~ Co.. and various de-
tails for the conduct of the bust
ness of the partnership to end on the
LIST of January, 1856. The plaintiff
charges that the defendants refuse
to value their goods or carry out the
provisions of the contract, that
plaintiff called in before Decembc,
81 1850, the sum o: $l25 900, which
was well invested i'll Oregon, which
he cannot SO well reinvest, thereby
losing SIS .S25, and that his proper
ton of the profits OF the co-par:ner-
ship agreed to be carried out are
worth S154 ,761 80. Wherefore judg-
ment is asked for Sl72 ,4Sj 30.
Max Goldsmith brings IL similar
suit against the same defendants to
recover S273,31S g., and Ishum
White another suit TO recover ST.
