LIABLE ON THE STOCK.
Mozart Hail Cases Are Decided for
the Plaintiff.

the Plaintiff.
Judge Amidon, Of the United States cir
cult court filed two decisions yesterday
which are of considerable interest in this
city. The plaintiff in both cases is the
London & Northwestern Mortgage Linn
tied company, one being against Peter Jo-
seph Giesen and the other against William
Parker Jewett, and from the pleadings it
appears that the circumstances in each
instance were nearly the same
It appears that the defendants held
stock in the plaintiff company whose
main Office is in London, and the COM
pany subsequently became insolvent. 1t
is claimed that the names Of the defend
ants were found upon the stock register
books of the company but when called
upon to assume their liability as stock
holders they disclaimed all interest, al
leging that they had assigned their stock
The company denied any legal knowledge
of such assignment and claimed that
therefore if an assignment of the stock
had been made it was not in accordance
with the laws of Great Britain and con-
sequently was violation of the corpor-
ate constitution of the company. 1t is
required that when transfer is mado
notice of assignment must be given to
the secretary and the transfer must be
recorded upon the stock register. In Mr.
GeiSen'S case it was shown that the no.
tice of assignment was given in accord
ance with the United States laws and the
tax stamp required by the British law
upon such documents was omitted. The
notice was sent back for correction and
it is claimed by the company was never
returned. The person to whom MR.. Gle
sen claimed to have assigned his stock
was Albert Scheffer.
In the Giesen case Judge Amidon, as
conclusions of law, finds that the defend
ant was a member Of the corporation
since April, 1886. That the attempted
stock transfer was of no effect; that the
knowledge possessed by plaintiffs agents
Of the actual payment of dividends to
Scheffer and the Security company was
not knowledge of the plaintiff, and did
not amount to a recognition by the plain
tiff of the attempted sale and transfer by
defendant that the defendant in dealing
with his shares after the sale to Scheffer
is estopped to deny his liability.
The court finds that the plaintiff is en-
titled to recover of the defendant Gle
sen, the sum of $2,9199O, with interest,
amounting in all to $4,1291
The judgment against Mr.. Jewett is for
14,5995O which, with interest in the sum
of $6,O4617, makes the total S2O645.67.
In the Jewett case the defendant denied
having accepted the stock, but stated
that he paid $100 on account. The balance
he claimed was paid by e. A. Hendrick-
son as agent and when defendant refused
to accept the stock Mr.. Hendrickson said
he would take 1t off his hands. 1t was
claimed, however, that afterward when
dividends were declared Jewett signed the
receipts.
1t is stated that Mr. Giesen will appeal
the case.

TO GET RID OF ANDERSON.
Scheme to Secure a Witness DisaP
pearance Fooled by Police.

pearance Fooled by Police.
An effort to ship Gus Anderson, a
SWede, wanted as a witness in a Min
neapolis robbery case, out of the cities,
was nipped in the bud at the union sta
ton yesterday forenoon Anderson ar
rived in Minneapolis from Hunter n. D.,
last week with S110 in his pockets. He
was approached by a man who claimed
to be the proprietor Of a livery stable in
Iowa, and being a stranger to city ways
consented to go to work for his new
friend. The lock-game gag was worked
on him, a. pseudo policeman appeared,
and Anderson was requested to give up
his money as bail money. He refused
and it was taken from him by force.
The man who secured the money escaped,
but Anderson held the other man until a
police officer appeared.
While waiting for the case to come
before the court Anderson met a man
irving the name of Charles G. Wilson,
who represented to him that it would be
foolish to go into court, and argued for
q settlement. Then Annie Schussler, rep
resenting herself, as Anderson says, to be
the wife of the man who robbed him, ap-
peared. and the stranger gave him $40 in
money, 'phony" watch, and ticket
to Victor, Col 1t was arranged that the
woman accompany him out of the city.
At the union station Anderson became
frightened and told his troubles to Andy
Call, the depot officer. Both were placed
under arrest and the Minneapolis police
notified.

NJ E. conference, made a request that a
young Swedish minister from Philadel-
phia, Oscar B. Edensward, whose Gre
dentials had arrived too late to permit
of his being admitted into the Swedish
conference, and then transferred to the
other. The request was granted.
The educational meeting held last
evening was very well attended and
proved highly interesting to all present.
The subject of education was ably dis
cussed in its various phases by three
speakers. The first address was by
Rev ]. ]. Hoffman, who has just re-
turned from a Berlin university to take
work in this conference. He received
in a very comprehensive manner the
growth development and extent of the
school interests of the Methodist Epis-
copal church throughout the country.
Prof Hoffert, of the college at st.
Paul Park, spoke of the accomplish
ments and purposes Of that institution
and the claims of the educational insu-
buttons upon the liberal1ty Of the
church.
DR.. F. L. Nagler, of Cincinnati, o., ed
itor Of "House and Health" discussed
education in general, giving his views
as to who should be educated and who
should do the educating. He dwelt upon
the necessity of higher schools founded
by church societies that the religious
branch Of education might be as fully
developed as possible. His discourse
was partly of harmonious character
and frequently moved his hearers to
laughter.

TAXES ON LOGS And LUMBER
THEY ARE STILL FULFILLING THE
STATE BOARD OF EQUALI-
ZATION
Ramsey County Experienced IL IS
Per Cent Increase In Valuation of
Manufacturers' TOooIs and ImpIe-
ments.

The state board of equalization yester-
day considered manufacturers tools and
Implements
Ramsey county was presented with a
raise Of Is per cent in its assessment, but
this only brings the county up to the
standard of last year. Ramsey this year
returned only $49l $40; last year the re-
turns showed $519,S63 Hennepin county's
assessment this year shows $797, 1872
against $741 ,6S5 for last year. The result
was that the grand total for this year on
this item is So, 1877, 341, as against $3,O91, sos
for last year.
A resolution was introduced by Mr.
Glav1n at the afternoon session calling
for an increase of Is per cent in the re-
turns made by Minneapolis, Duluth and
Saltwater upon manufactured articles"
which was intended to hit the corporate
lumber interests.
The lumber companies engaged in log
ging and manufacturing lumber are as
sessed under the head Of manufactured
articles. This was conceded by the board
as entirely the wrong place to list the
assessable property of the lumber COM
was what perplexed the staid members
of the equaizing body.
Mr.. Glavin presented figures which
showed that 10 per cent more logs were
cut during the 1898 season than the year
before, which, with the great increase in
the cost OF manufactured lumber, would
make an increase of Is per cent in the
returns about right. He thought how
ever, that the best way to make the Min
neapolis lumbermen pay their proper
ton Of the public tax was to raise them
as individuals. He suggested that in
Minneapolis they be raised as individ-
uals, as a general raise in the class would
hit some other manufacturers that were
assessed upon fair basis. However, in
Duluth and Saltwater, a raise as class
would work no hardship After a pro-
longed discussion the matter was laid
over.
The board took up also unincorporated
banks, but made few changes in the re-
turns.
