ON TECHNICAL POINTS
SUPREME COURT REvERsES CELE-
DRAFTED EEL RIVER CASE.
Question Of States Right to Annul the
Railroad Company's Charter
Not Touched.

The long-looked-for decision in the case Of
the State against the Eel River Railroad
Company, which was an effort to declare
the charter of the company void because 1t
sold out to a competing company, was hand
ed down by the Supreme Court yesterday.
1t is a great disappointment to those who
have looked forward to a decision on the
points involved, for not one is touched by
the court. The case was reversed on legal
technicalities.
The question of the right of the State to
annul the charter of the defendant COM
pany still remains open. The court finds
that the lower court had no jurisdiction
over the person of the defendant company,
although 1t holds that the court acquired
jurisdiction over the matter at issue by the
failure Of the defendant to demur to the
complaint for reason of lack of juridction.
This provided the process had been good.
In regard to the lack of jurisdiction over
the person of the defendant the court says:
THE proof of service of summons on the
Eel River Railroad Company was not suffi-
cient under this section (Sec. 3l9. r. s., 1881,
providing for service on nonresidents), for
the reason that it was not shown that said
company Is a nonresident of the State. 1t
is true that the Information alleged that
the Eel River company had no Off1cer or
agent within the State upon whom service
could be had, but the information was not
verified, and If such facts would have sus-
tanned the service of summons on the Eel
River company in this case under Section
319 no proof thereof was made"
1t was also claimed by the State that the
act of Dec. Il, 1858, is still in force, al
though not contained in the Revised Stat
utes of 1881. The court could not find any act
repeating ii. This act provides for service
on home corporations whose officers live
outside the State. The court says: 1.-The
proof OF service OF process was not sufficient
under its provisions for the reason that
there was no return by the sheriff that the
Eel River company had no officer or person
authorized to transact its business resid-
ton has been located or has exercised its
powers upon whom process can be served,
as required by said act"
The CasS Circuit Court is instructed to
sustain the motion Of the company concern
ing the process The opinion was written
by Judge Monks and was concurred In by
all the other judges Judge Howard wrote
concurrent opinion, in which he calls the
attention of the States attorney to
the fact that nowhere in the in
formation is it alleged that the
peting lines. This is the case in which Gen.

The original suit was brought in Cass coun-
ty in the name of the State by ex-Judge
Norris Winfield and d. d. Dykeman. A
large amount Of money has been spent i'm
court costs and attorneys Fee and now the
case Is where it was Immediately after the
original information was filed.

CLEVELAND, Jan. 9.-The Iron Trade Re-
view this week will say: A reduction of the
make of pig iron, everywhere conceded to
be necessary to an improvement in price, is
already in progress. In the past ten days
eight furnaces in the Shenango valley have
either been blown out or banked-one in
the Mahoning valley, one at Pittsburg, two
furnaces or the Tennessee Coal, Iron and
Railroad Company, and one of the Sloss
Iron and Steel Company. The weekly output
OF iron is now fully 1900 tons less than the
rate in the last week in December, and
furnaces to be put idle in the coming week
will work further reduction. Labor trou-
bles in some, two-dollar coke in other
cases and In still others the unwillingness
to pile iron and add to the already heavy
accumulation of metal account for the re-
strictive movement which will help to re-
store an equilibrium between furnace out
put and that OF mills, foundries and steel
works The past week, so far as prices and
sales go, has not differed from it's predeces-
sors. Buyers are holding off. The few who
place contracts are getting concessions
from quotations. and for the time being
every producer is a law to himself In the
matter Of prices
