HELD TO BE PROPERTY.
A Seat in Stock Board Is an
Available Asset.

On March 18th William Loewenberg be-
gan suit against jacob Greenebaum, Henry
Wolfsohn, his assignee, the San Francisco
Stock and Exchange Board, Walter
Turnbull, o. Y. Walker, Frederick W.
Hadley, George T. Marye Jr. and the COM
pany of Associated Stockholders, setting
forth in his complaint that Greenebaum
held seat" in the Stock Board. which was
sold on execution to him, he being the high
est bidder. for $500.
Immediately after the purchase the plain
tiff, it is alleged, notihed the board of the
sale TO him of the property, but it has ever
refused 10 recognize the same or to account
to him for or permit him to participate in
the issues of the said property. but has
allowed the defendant GreenebaHm to con-
tinue to hold his seat" and receive 1.-THE
profits thereof.
The defendant Greenebaum, it is declared,
is insolvent. and his refusal TO give up his
seat resulted in 5000 damage to the
plaintiff. The Judgment prayed was that
the defendants be required to set forth. their
claim to the seat" and that the validity of
the sale be declared; that the plaintiff be
adjudged the owner thereof; that an G.
counting be had and receiver appointed;
that the defendants be eajoined from max
Ing any disposal of the same. and that $500
rents and profits be awarded TO the plaintiff.
bershiD," according to the articles of incOr-
poration, gave no Interest in the property of
the board, aad that seat" is nothing
more than membership. A "seat," there
fore, is not property, and cannot be applied
by creditor to the payment of his 1udg
lnent, and especially not on a sale ON rxecu
tion. The case was lately tried, argued an d
submitted, and yesterday Judge Hoge rem
dered decision declaring that seat is
property, and saeable on execution. but
subject TO the rules OF the Exchange.
" The purchaser cannot become member
of the association by the purchase merely,
without action, under its rules, by the
board, declares the opinion; "but l think
the beneficial right and interests pass by the
sale. | have no doubt OF the power of the
court in cases of this character to compel
the party defendant to do whatever may be
necessary 10 secure and protect the pur-
chaser of such Interests as those in ques-
tion.'
The opinion then adjudges TO the plaintiff
fun enjoyment OF his property, and eninins
the defendants from making any disposal
Of the same, and gives the other ami fur
Their relief prayed for in the com plant.

NEW YORK. April 7.-There was free

was received with Kisses. The Governor
based his declination to attend on hiswant
of sympathy with the policy Of free trade

lands free-trsde message were applauded
10 the echo.
OTTER LETTERS.
Among the letters of regret that we're
read were those from Congressman 3. y.
Stout. of Michigan; Congressman Q. h.
Breckinridge. of Arkansas; CONGRESSMAN
Michael ID. Hartner, of Ohio; Henry
George. Governor John u. Davis, of Rhode
Island; David Wells. of Connecticut, and

son, OF Kansas. was the chief speaker.
He said in part In the matter OF free
trade tho people of Kansas were tired OF
waiting for promised reform.
SIMPSON FoR FREE TRADE.
They had stood two years of President
Harrison's Administration. and were pre-
pared 10 take matters into their own hands
and have free trade or nothing. In the
speakers opinion tariff reform by reduo-
ton of the taxation, free trade. was the
only reform needed. The speaker said It
was time for the coming of o new Thomas
Jefferson and for the adoption of new
Declaration of Independence. The speaker
scored Senator Governor Hill for his anti
free-trade tactics. He did not appear az
representative Of the Farmers Alliance,
but as q free trader. He thought railroads
should be managed by the Government.
