Judge HileS So Holds In Case of
Charles LammersdOrf,
MANAGER OF SEWER MINE
HE VOTED THE SALARY TO HIM
SELF.
Mrs. Martishia Cahoon Sues For Di-
vorce, Alleging Cruelty and Fail
ure to Provide-New Trial
Granted In Case of Peter Burke
VS.. Henry M Ryan-Court Notes.

The somewhat important suit Of
Charles c. Parsons against the Sewer
Mining & Milling company, which was
up for hearing some time ago, was de-
cided by Judge Hiles yesterday, the
decree being that Superintendent Lam
mersdorf's salary for 1897 and five
months in 1898 has been illegally drawn,
for the reason that the votes of Lam
mersdorf and wife as directors were
necessary to carry the resolution pro-
Viding for such salary, and, therefore,
fraud in law.
The suit was instituted by Parsons,
who claimed he represented 115,432
shares of stock out of the $50 900 shares
comprising the total stock in the con-
Germ, and alleging that he had not been
given representation on the board of
directors because LammerSdOrf con-
trolled most of the stock. He set up
IN his charge that Lammersdorf, by
the aid Of his wife and other directors
who held just enough stock to entitle
them TO serve as such officials, voted
himself large salaries and otherwise
run things without regard to the in
terest of other parties. 1t was further
alleged that Thomas TroZona, A. e.
Hyde, p. Z. Mckinney and Mrs. Lam
mersdorf did not hold sufficient stock
to qualify them for the positions of di-
16ClOTS-
Parsons asked that Mr. Lammersdorf
be compelled to give an accounting of
the salary received, Sc, 500, from Jan. /,
1897, to June l, 1898, and that the as
sessment of cents a share. levied on
March S. 1888, be set aside
In his opinion. Judge Hiles holds that
the action of the board of directors in
voting Lammersdorf a salary of $ COO
per year was void. owing to the fact
he
plished without his own vote and that
of his wife. For the same reason the
assessment, which was levied for the
purpose of raising money to pay the
salary, was void.
With regard TO the. stockholders
reeting of June II, 1898, when Lam
mersdorf was made general manager,
the court held that any acts taken
then could not validate former illegal
acts by the board, and that, therefore,
lammersdOrf had no right to his salary
prior to that time.

The High School.

| At the High school most appropriate
exercises were held in commemOration
of Lafayette. Although nothing elab-
crate had been planned, owing to the
lack of time and the pressure of school
duties. still the programme was a cred
liable one and was eXcellently rendered.
Principal Clark opened the exercises
with remarks apropos of the day and
the occasion. stating that the observa-
/ ton of Lafayette day is the result of
rapidly-growing sentiment in favor of
the recognition of Lafayettes unselfish
service to our country at a time when
such help meant much to the strug-
Cling states. He said that it was just
III years ago that CORVALLIS surren-
dered to Washington at Yorktown, and
the anniversary of that date was most
appropriate for Lafayette day, mark
ing, as it did, the close of a war and
the winning of a cause to which Lafay-
cite had devoted the best years of his
life.
Harry Pitts followed with, "a Tribute
to Lafayette He told, in glowing
terms, of the unselfsh devotion. the
honesty and uprightness and whole
souled humanity of the man.
Lafayette's Last Visit to America"
was told by Kitty Eager, and all the
details of the magnificent welcome ten
dered him were related
Phil Richards gave an address upon
the relations between Lafayette and
Napoleon, after which the High school
orchestra rendered THE High School
Cadet" and a medley of patriotic airs.
The orchestra is a newly organized in
stitution in the school, and il gives
promise of becoming one of the dis
tinct features which characterize stu
dent life and school spirit at the High
school

LABOR-SAVING MACHINERY.
National Commissioners Report On
Industrial Situation.

Washington, Oct. 19.-The result of a
thorough investigation ordered by con-
gress and just completed, showing the
effects of machinery on labor and in
cidental questions. constitute the 18th
annual report of the commissioner of
labor. The statistics of cost reported
involve only the actual labor expended
The report goes into details and among
other things says
There would be no quarrel with the
conclusion that machinery has lowered
the cost of products, and when it is
known that under the machine method
there is an increased demand for labor
as a rule, the bearing of the supply of
labor becomes problematical Some
times there is a lack, oftentimes a sur
plus of labor. The statistics presented
make evident that there has been a
larger number of persons required for
the production of the articles consid-
cred, in order to meet present demands,
than were necessary TO meet them IN
