JOHN ROONEY WINS.
Judge johnson DismIsses the History
CoInpany's Case.

Colnpany's Case.
Superior Judge johnson yesterday de-
MED the petition Of the History Company
for writ of review in its case against
John Rooney of Brighton.
On April "a, 1889. the History Company
commenced an action against Rooney for
$3.50 alleged to be due for books which
the History Company claimed it deliv-
cred to Rooney. In his answer Rooney
averred that the contract sued on had
been procured by fraud.
The History Company. in its petition
for writ of review, claimed that on June
10, 1889. without the consent or knowl-
edge of plaintiff or it's attorney, a stipula-
ton, or what purported to be such, was
filed transferring the action from the
Justices Court of Brighton Township to
the court of Justice J. b. Devine that on
April q, 1891, without the consent or
knowledge OF the plaintiff, the case was
set for trial on motion of Rooney's attor-
neys, and that no notice of the time of
trial was ever given to plaintiff.
Justice Devine rendered judgment in
favor of Rooney, and found as fact that
the special plea set up by him in his
answer was true. The special plea re-
fsrred to was Rooney's allegation that
the contract for the purchase of the
books was obtained by fraud.
Judge johnson in his decision says:
"The petitioner urges that it did not DIS
cover the entry of the judgment until
after the time for appeal had expired.
Who ia responsible for that? 1t had com.
menced it's action two years before; it was
aware that its attorney had left the State
for more thana year before. had stood ST.
lently by, had taken no steps in the matter,
had not bstitu ted an attorney, had not in
person taken charge of the litigation
which it had instituted, and had made no
inquiries in respect to the matter. Its
own laches and negligence are responsible
for its want of knowledge of the judg-
ment being given and it must not COM
plain.
1.-The petition will be denied and the
proceedings dismissed"

EACH GETS SOMETHING.
Decision in the Van Loben Sells. Recla-
nation District Case.

Decision in the Van Loben SelS.Recla-
nation District Case.
Superior Judge Hinkson yesterday
rendered decision in the case of P. J.
Van Loben Sells vs. G. Bunnell, the Ger
mania Building and Loan Association.
and Reclamation District No. 551, known
as the Pearson District.
This was an action for a decree estab-
fishing lien upon the land of defendant
Bunnell for 1854, alleged to have been
created under the terms Of an instrument
executed between the plaintiff and de-
fendant In December, 1891, and for the
foreclosure of the lien and the sale of the
land. The Germania Association was
made q defendant because it claimed
some interest in or lien upon the land.
but the plaintiff alleged that if such
claim or lien existed it was subsequent,
and therefore subordinate to plaintiff g
lien.
The defendants admitted that the land
was conveyed by plaintiff to Bunnell;
that the latter held the record title to the
pump and pumping machinery de-
scribed in the complaint, and that Bun
nell entered Into possession of the land
under the terms of the agreement. They
denied, however, that the instrument
constituted lien in favor Of the plaintiff.
The Germania Building and Loan Asso-
citation alleged that If the plaintiff had any
lien 1t was subsequent and subordinate
to theirs.
The decision is quite long, and reviews
all the points in the case and authorities
thereon. 1t holds that the plaintiffs lien
was not ambiguous. but that it was i'm
possible. from its nature, for the parties
to have fixed the amount of money which
it was intended to secure, or the time
when the same would accrue. However,
it constituted Q lien upon prior and SUI
perior to that of the Germania Building
Bnd Loan Association.
Reclamation District No. 55l." says
the court, sis entitled TO decree estab
fishing its lien for the amount set up in Its
answer prior and superior to the lien Of
plaintiff and to that of the Germania
Building and Loan Association.
1.-The plaintiff is entitled to decree es-
tablishing his lien for 1854 and for the
foreclosure and sale of the property, and
for $3.50 attorneys fees.

Loan Association is entitled to decree
establishing its lien for the amount set

CHICAGO'S MODEST FRUIT DEALERS.
A Few of Them Want to MonopoIize
Our Products.
They Object to the New Open Auction
System, But VIII Have to
Submit to 1t.

The Associated Fruit Buyers of Chicago
are up in arms against the open-auction
system adopted by the California Fruit
Growers and Shippers Association.
They claim to represent ninety eight per
cent of the purchasers of California fruits,
and demand protection" against the
other two per cent.
They have been informed by the Presi-
dent of the California Association that
open auctions are the most satisfactory to
those in this State who are interested in
the fruit business, and that Chicago must
do just as the buyers are doing and have
done in New York and Boston.
These Chicago men have so long en-
joyed monopoly Of the California fruit
business, through the "closed" auction
system, that they cannot submit with
good grace to the new order of things.
But the California growers of fruit have
suffered much by the old system, and
are determined on having their interests
guarded. hence their adoption of the
open auction system.
The new order of things will be given a
full and fair trial, and the Chicago kick
ers may just as well get down to business
Nv OuC6 duu tdhb tu6lE CuduCeS Will
others. What the growers Of this State
want is the broadcast possible market for
their fruit, and the more buyers there are
the better il is for them. They have
played into the hands of a close corpora
ton of buyers too long already, and their
experience in that direction has not been
without its lesson.
The California Association of growers
and shippers must stand together and
hof for hnir ,,oI iv,fn irrn
spective of the demands of a few Chicago
men who want to hog" everything in
sight. If they do this they will doubtless
discover that the transportation COM
panleS have not been to blame for all
their bad luck in the past, as so many
have been disposed to believe.

THAT STOLEN LAMB.
Justice Henry Holds Mohns' Sentence
in Allowance.

Justice Henry Holds M0hns' Sentence
in Allegiance.
The case of Fred Mohns, charged with
stealing lamb from a flock of sheep
driven by Pete bribery. was tried in
the Police Court yesterday.
bribery swore that as he was driving
his flock, near Fifteenth and d streets,
Mohns asked him to give him lamb. He
refused, and Mohns told him that he
would lose one of them before he got to
his destination. Shortly afterward he
saw Mohns get off horse which he and
another boy were riding, pick up lam b
and hand it to the other boy. He called
to them, but they rode Oft.
j. Wilson testified to seeing Mohns get
off the horse and get the sheep, and OFF,
Ger Bagley testified to finding the sheep
in MohEs' possession when he arrested
him.
A boy named Leon Richardson testiie
that he himself picked up the lamb and
handed it TO Mohns, who took it on the
horse and rode off. The witness was driv-
ing the sheep, although the herder had not
asked him to. He handed the lamb to
Mohns because the latter asked him to.
He quit driving the sheep as soon as he
handed the lamb to Mohns, as he was
bareheaded, and had already driven them
from Twenty-second aud l streets.
Another boy named Mansfield, on
whose horse the boys were riding, said
that the Richardson boy asked Mohns
If he did not want lamb. and said the
herder lad given it to him.
Mohns told the same story, and said the
herder promised to give him lamb If
he would help drive the flock to Twelfth
street. He denied telling the herder that
he would lose lamb. He did not get off
the horse.
The defense introduced witnesses to
prove the good character of Mohns.
The City Attorney said there was no
doubt from the testimony that all three
OF the boys were guilty of petit larceny.
Mohns' attorney denied this, and said
1t was customary for Lerders to give
away lambs that became tired, and two
witnesses testified the Richardson boy
told Mohns the herder had given it to
him.
The City Attorney said that there
was no doubt as to the larceny. He
knew that boys often picked up sheep in
this way, as he had seen it done.
The court said he was placed In an EN-
barrassing position. 1t was in his power
to speak few words that would blast
Mohns' life, but he would hold the mat
ter in allegiance, and he wished the boys
TO take warning by this affair and never
be engaged in anything wrong again. He
directed the lamb to be restored to its
owner and suspended sentence.
