idaho COURT
RENDERS DECISION
ON CORPORATIONS
(By Associated Press.)

BOISE (Ida.), April 26.-The su-
preme court of the state, in an op-
tion handed down yesterday, made
an important decision concerning the
provisions of the constitution which
provides that dues for any private
corporation shall be secured by such
means as shall be prescribed by law,
but in no case shall any stockholder
be individually liable in any amount
over and above the amount of stock
owned by him." Tue court held this
clause to limit the personal liability
of the stockholder, but in no way to
limit the power of the corporation to
make assessments upon stock fully
paid up and to subject such stock to
sale in default of the payment Of
such assessments.
Where stock is stamped "non-as-
|sessable," the court states assess
ments cannot be levied.
The opinion was in the case of
Thomas Wall VS.. the Basin Mining
company, limited, and others, litiga-
ton in which mining men of north
Idaho have been greatly interested.
The suit was instituted by Wall in
the Shoshone county district court to
establish the plaintiffs right as
a shareholder in the corporation to
some 10000 shares of stock belong
ing to him which had been sold in
default of an assessment of 1-14
mills per share. Judgment was en-
tered by Judge Woods of the lower
court in favor of the defendant. This
is reversed. The sole question pre-
sented on appeal was whether the
appellants stock was subject to as
sessment and sale.

NINE HOUR LAY is
UPHELD BY COURT
(By Associated Press. J

CHICAGO, April 26.-Judge Lam
dis, in the United States district court
yesterday, in the test case against
the Santa Fe railroad in the nine
hour law governing telegraphers, up
held the law.
The contention between the gov
ernment and the railroads is as to
what the law means. The Santa Fe
employed two operators, who by the
expedient of three hour rest in the
midst of twelve hour tricks, really
performed actual labor only nine
hours each day.
The government alleges that this
constituted violation of the law.
Judge Lands admitted that the con-
struction of the statute was open to
question and by agreement of coun-
sci the defendant was allowed to
plead guilty and was fined 500. The
case will be appealed. as the case is
the first one started under the
hours of labor" law.

NEW YORK, April 26.-Upward
of 5000 women today engaged in one
of the fiercest bargain riots at Broad

crush from those who were strug-
Cling to be among the first to gain
entrance that scores of women fell in
a faint and were trampled by the
