CALENDAR CUT DOWN
Many Cases Passed Upon in Supreme
Court.

The supreme court yesterday morn
ing in a session of two and a half
hours visibly lessened the calendar.
In the case of AXel w. Hallenborg
against the Cobre Grande company
and others. which has been before the.
court ever since the settlement be-
tween the factions of the Cobre
Grande company two years ago. the
judgment of the lower court was af
firmed. The case had come down from
Yavapai county. Hallenborg, one of
the company, and also one of the min
GRITTY stockholders, sued for a variety
of things. But the most prominent re-
lief he asked for was the reopening of
the litigation with w. G. Greene and
others which had been stopped by the
settlement. a receiver was also asked
for it was stated to take charge Of
certain trust funds and to represent
the company in the reopening and
conduct of the suit with Greene. 1t
was urged that that suit had been
stopped by COLLISION and that a re-
ceiver having access to the books and
papers of the company could do so
better than the minority stockholders
who could also bring the suit for the
relief asked for.
In the opinion affirming the judgment
of the, lower court it could not be
found that an error had been COM
mitted by the trial judge and as to the
APPLICATION for a receiver. who seemed
to be mainly wanted for the purpose Of
bringing the action, the court believed
that could be done as well as the mi
nority stockholders. Under the laws OF
this territory they would be given ac-
cess to the papers of the company to
the same extent that a receiver could
have access.
A motion to dismiss the appeal was
granted in the case of tombstone
against Robertson from this county,
an election contest. In the case of the
