a peculiar tale is being unfolded in
the common pleas court IN the case OF
Frank NJ. Smith against Hoke w. Don
ithen Little by little a business Frame
mp is being disclosed that shows what
weird principles enter into the pro-
position Of business is business"
Smith claims that he bid i'm the
Greenwood Street Lumber company
for $500 at sherifs sale last Sep
tcmber. He asserts that he was act
ing for himself and that he intended
disposing OF the plant to his brother
in-law. named Davis. Of Columbus.
But the deed to the property was
made out to HolSe w. Donithen, a To-
cal attorney Smith claims Donithen
has no right To the properly which
was subsequently sold to Joseph
Sanser Of LaRue and Is now in his
possession.
The defendant claims that Smith
was merely acting as an agent Tor o.
Wollenweber and received a commits
sion OF 500 for bidding in the prop
erty II shows that Wollenweber put
up the first $500 payment and that he
affected an arrangement with Don.
ithen before the deed had been made
out
Smith and Wollenweber had had
some correspondence and several con-
ferences about the property before il
was offered for sale. Some Of the
letters were offered in evidence. Smith
swears Wollenweber told him to bid
in the property and " It was too high,
tn duck" Wollenweber denies any
such suggestion to Smith. Smith ad-
mlts that he received money from
Wollenweber TO defray certain eX-
pcnses and claims that other money
received by him. for which he gave
receipt for special assignment"
was partial payment for his SER
vices in organizing a new company.
The testimony Is terribly conflicting.
Finally Judge Sconeld took a hand
and questioned Smith closely. Smith
admitted that when he bid the prop
cry in he had no money. lie says he
had no arrangement with anyone az
that time to take the property off his
hands although he felt certain he
could dispose of II at once. and that
II was through his efforts that Vol
lenweber made the first payment OF
$500.
About this time, attorneys for the
defense made a motion to take the
testimony from the jury and direct a
verdict for the defendant
AS It was quite late, Judge Scofeld
dismissed the jury until . o'clock Mon
day morning and win hear the argu-
mont of the motion TO take the case
from the jury at that time.
The case Is being quite bitterly
fought and is attracting unusual at
tention from the legal fraternity Of
this city.

If 10 be true that a combine of
the crushed stone producers of this
county ever did exist the object bsS
ing to control and maintain prices,
that combination has been shot full
of cute little round holes by a trio
OF west farmers composed of w. A.
Miley, j. l.. Davis and G. n. Cook
road commissioners on what is known
as the Davis pike i'm Waldo township.
For a long time it has been sus-
pected that a combine existed and
such charge was openly made and
never disputed by any of the inter
asted parties. Last winter the price
of crushed stone was SO cents a Gu
bic yard Last winter, County Sur
veyor Ault made estimates on some so
miles of pike which is building i'm
this county this summer. When CON
tractors bid i'm the work, they had TO
figure on a basis OF G6 cents a cubic
yard. a figure TO which thealleged
combine had sent stone. This made
II difficult 10 get reasonable bids. as
the surveyor had figured all his esti-
mates on the 55-cent basis.
This condition has prevailed all
summer and has occasioned no end
Of complaint. Many threats Of open.
ing new quarries have been made but
they apparently had but little effect
until today
The Davis pike in Waldo township
was sold at one o'clock this after
noon. The engineers estimate was
$500. The read commissioners
wanted the road sold below the esti-
IL ~
road ran right through the heart Of
rich stone territory and that a GER
tain firm Of contractors. If they were
the successful bidders. would open
up quarry and furnish their own
stone This seemed to worry the al
legged stone combine, with the result
that the one to whom the road "be-
longed." by virtue OF the supposed
"gentlemen's agreement grew fear
ful that new and fresh competition
would be inaugurated II the road went
to the contractors who were sup
posed TO contemplate opening a
quarry.
II was given out by this firm,
that the price OF stone had sudden
~ dropped from 66 Ia 55-cents cubic
yard.
When the bids were opened II was
found that there were but three bid
ders Shaw & Uncapher s5,475, p. L.
Brady S5,296.64 and ]. w. Scott So
$50. The contract was let to the
latter bidder.
But the rather amusing feature
about the program is that no bid was
received from any ono who contem-
rlated opening up a stone quarry In
Waldo township. In other words. II
IL was a "blun" on the part OF the
road commissioners, they got away
with II nicely and slipped one over
on the alleged crushed stone com
hine.
" Is believed that now that the
price has dropped, and the so-called
combine broken. no further efforts
