NEW COMPLICATIONS.

The following complaint was filed with
the county clerk, by w. F. McFadden, the
plaintiffs attorney, November 2, and is
self.explanatory. 1t reads:
s'In the matter of the assignment of
Zephin Job and B. r. Job, partners, doing
business as Hamilton, Job & Co., insolvent
debtors.
"To the Hon. J. c. Fullerton. judge, etc.
Objections and exceptions OF Florence Gill
bert to certain claim of Indebtedness in
the sum of $l7, ,664.74, and $500 sheriff's
fees, presented to J. r. Bryson, the duly
named insolvents.
"Comes now Florence Gilbert and files
her exceptions and objections to the allow
ance of that certain Indebtedness in the
sum of 1864, IA in favor of A. r. Shipley
as treasurer of the state agricultural college
of Oregon (J. M. Applewhite being substi-
tuted for the said A. r. Shipley by an
order of said court heretofore made) re.
ported by the assignee of that said insolvents
for the following reasons: That the said
$l7, 7,664.74 so claimed as an indebtedness
against the estate of the said insolvents is
null and void in that no claim has been

treasurer of said college, or by any other
person or persons at any time for or in be-

ton. Job & Co., were defendants, is null and
void in that it was issued on the 18th day
of June 1898, and that said claim and the
| whole thereof should be disallowed as a
insolvents. That the said Florence Gilbert
is creditor of the said insolvents in the
sum of $652.72, or thereabouts.
"Wherefore, petitioner objects to the
allowance of the said claim and every part
or portion thereof and files this her special
objection and exception to such claim herein
mentioned ard objects to the said assignee,
j. r. Bryson, reporting the said claim afore.
said to the court claim or Indebtedness
against said estate of said insolvents for the
reasons as stated herein"
This is peculiar case and if the com.
plant above holds good in court the o. A.
G. matters cannot be adjusted until after all
other claims are allowed. If after all other
Indebtedness has been paid in full there re.
mains on hand funds, these will be applied
to the college claim and others of its class.
1t seems that the attachment was irregu.
ularly issued, as the law provides that the
plaintiff at the time of issuing the sum-
mons or at any time thereafter may have
the property of the defendant attached.
In the present case, as shown above, the
attacment was issued June II, and the
summons placed in the sherif's possession
on June %, five days after the writ of
attachment was served.
A mistake has been made somewhere and
what there is gain, land if the state agri-
cultural college is unfortunate enough to
lose the amount of her deposit in the defunct
bank, an increase of about ten per cent will
be added to the claims of other depositors.
