, Some time ago an effort was made to
have the board of supervisors revoke
the license of Edward Tisnerat, who
keeps q boarding house at Los Alamitos
The managers of the sugar company
operating at that point complained that
their men We're induced TO visit Tisne-
rats premises and become drunk and
unfit for work. The contest was carried
on before the supervisors for two ses-
sions. and the question as to where the
working hands got the liquor being in
volved in some doubt, the whole matter
was dismissed.
But Tisneart considered he had been
seriously injured by the action the sugar
company people had taken in forbidding
their work people TO patronize his board
ing house, and brought suit against e.
I. Dyer, ]. Ross Clark and the Alamitos
Sugar company. The action was of d
rather ambiguous character, and on the
motion to dismiss on the ground that
no undertaking had been given by the
plaintiff prior to bringing it, as required
by law in the case of actions of libel
or SANDER, the court held that the COM

either for libel or slander, and denied

THE DECREE GRANTED
Mrs. Wenzel Suffered Long But at
Last Hit Back

Last HIT Back
Mrs. Mary Wenzel was granted de-
cree of divorce yesterday by Judge
Smith on her cross-complaint. Her hus-
band instituted the suit for divorce, and
in short and very spicy complaint
charged his wife with being habitualiy
Incorporate for year past. He then
proceeded to allege that Mrs. Wenzel
had SO forgotten her marriage vow as
to commit adultery with Herbert Ros.
at the Mundon Villa road house on Sep
tember 9Th, 1895; on September 18th
with one Pat Mcmahon, at 348 South Hill
street, and on October 10th, 1895, with
W., B. McMahon, presumably brother
OF Pat, also at 348 South Hill street. As
IL that were not enough, Mr.. Wenzel
proceeded to allege that the wife of his
bosom, between September 7th and Sep
tember 30th. 1896, repeatedly fell from
grace with Herbert Rose, in a private
room at the Anheuser, on Spring street
In response to the harsh accusations
Mrs. Wenzel made answer, in which she
denies all naughty things imputed to
her. and for complaint on her own be-
half claimed that her husband treated
her In a cruel and inhuman manner and
habitually used abusive language to her
while accusing her of infidelity. On Mo-
vember 29th. 1894, while living at Van
derbilt, San Bernardino county he re-
viled her in dreadful language and then
blacked her eyes. Then this most unde-
sirable husband celebrated Christmas
day by making an tempt to kill his wife,
and inaugurated the new year by caJls-
ing Mrs. Wenzel to fly for refuge to some
neighbors. Tss

! 1t is understood that the act of March
8, 1891, and which went into effect on
March 8, 1896. is responsible for the or
ganization of this company. That act
has opened up a wide field for litigation.
and instead of operating in the direction
intended has confirmed the title to vast
acres of land to parties who previously
had no title, and without their claims
being investigated.
! The purpose of this claims company is
set out to be: To examine titles to real
estate anywhere in the United States.
and to acquire, hold and convey title to
real estate to other corporations and
| individuals; to make contracts with per-
sons and corporations of all kinds for
the purpose of appearing by its duly ap-
pointed and authorized attorneys or
counsel, and prosecuting or defending
actions and quits, prosecuting claims and
receiving such compensation or fees
as may be agreed upon in the following
cases: (a) In suits relating to real es-
tate and personal property in the courts
of the United States, the courts Of the
respective states and territories, and in
the courts of the District of Columbia.
(b) In presenting and prosecuting claims
of all kinds on behalf of claimants in the
several departments of the United States
government or special tribunals or COM
missions thereof. (c) For appearing for
parties before the committees of con-
gress. (d) For appearing before COM
missions or tribunals organized for the
purpose of determining claims of the
citizens of one country or nation against
another, and making awards therein.
(e) For appearing for parties before the
interstate commerce commission. O
To prosecute and defend elaine, con-
tests and suits involving title to lands of
the public domain, in the several land
offices and departments of the United
States government and in the courts.
(g) And to furnish information to per-
sons upon all subjects.
1t is also provided that the corpora
tion shall establish sub-companies in
different parts of the country for the
purpose of carrying on the business au-
thorized by the charter. The design OF
the corporation is ambitious and far
reaching, for it is specified that the value
of the real estate to be owned by the
company at any one time shall not ex-
|ceed $12,O00,000, nor shall its area exceed
100000 acres.
The capital stock is set at 800, 900. to be
divided into 1000 shares of the par value
of $10O each. 1t is not stated how much
of this is subscribed, but 1t is claimed
by the local representative Of the corpo-
ration that $4,000 is not only subscribed
but paid up.

here involved and has decided adversely
to the plaintiffs right to maintain such
an action. In that case the complaint
alleged that Newlands, the owner of the
Palace hotel and restaurant, had enter
ed into an agreement whereby the plain

privilege of taking his meals at the res
taurant; that the defendant Thorn ma

damages. 1t was alleged in the COM
plant that the defendants, Dyer and
Clark, instructed their employees that
| they must not board at or visit the
plaintiffs place of business, and that
they would discharge any employees
who should do so. In consequence of
these threats, it was claimed, boarders

aid. In an opinion handed down by
Judge Van Dyke yesterday the novel
claim made by defendants is examined
into and sustained. In alluding to the
case relied upon by the defense the
court says: In that case the foreman
| of company instructed the men under
his control that they must not deal at
| plaintiffs store or they would be dis
charged, and carried out his instruc-
tions by discharging some, and the ac-
tior was sustained. On the other hand
in Payne vs. the Western and Atlantic
Railroad company. IL was decided that
TO action on such grounds could be
maintained. In that case the officer
and agent Of the corporation posted
notice as follows ANY employe of this
company on the Chattanooga pay roll
who trades with l.. Payne from this date
will be discharged" Certain employees
We're discharged. and in passing upon
the case the court said: The novelty,
! interest and jrnpoYfapoc of ba c,,ae+;or
demands a careful examination of the
principles involved. The first question
is, is it unlawful for one person or
number of persons in conspiracy 10
threaten to discharge employees if they
trade with a certain merchant? Would
it be unlawful to discharge them for
such reason? If not, it surely would
rot be unlawful to threaten it. If tho
employees are engaged for fixed terms
it may be assumed that discharge by
the employer for such reason would
be unwarranted and would give the en-
ploye an action for breach of contract.
INTERFERENCE WITH RIGHTS
For anyone to discharge an employe
without cause is censurable and unjust.
but is it legally wrong? Is it unlawful? !?
May l not refuse to trade with anyone? :?
May I not forbid my family to trade with
anyone? May not dismiss my domestic
servant for dealing or even visiting
where I forbid? And if my domestic
why not my farm hand or my mechanic
or teamster, and if one of them, then
why not all four? And if all four, why
not hundred or a thousand of them?
The principle is not changed or affected
by the number. If the act intended to
be done is not unlawful. then the declar-
alton is not threat in law, and the ef-
feet is not intimidation in legal sense"
correlative right exists on behalf OF
the employe, the same as the employer
He may refuse to work or perform serv-
! ice for one who patronizes a prtcular
