BAD FOR BOHEMIAN OATS, THE MICHIGAN SUPREME COURT BRANDS THE COMPANY AS AN ILLEGAL CONCERN, Philadelphia Press, Feb. 8. Lansing, Mich., Feb. 2.—The Supreme Court to-day reversed the decision of the lower court in the case of McNamara va. Gaggett. In 1885, Gaggett purchased Bohemian oats and gave his note to A, A. Griffen, who sold the note to McNam- ara. Gaggett refused to pay the note, claiming that there bad not been ade- quate consideration, and was sued on it the Court giving a judgment for note an interest against him, He carried the case to the Bupreme Court, and that Court ruled that the contract for which the note was given was frauduolent, and, therefore, not binding on the defendant, The terms of the contract are at war with public polics, says the Court, and therefore null and avoid. This decision settles over a hundred oases now on file in the lower courts, and will result in saving the farmers from the clutches of the Bohemian Oats Co, a wild-cat organization, and the breaking np of an organized company of swindlers that have bled the farmers of Michigan of thousands of dollars. The verdict is the result of favorable comment, and there can be no more Bohemian oats contracts in Michigan. Tie Court con- dems the scheme, and will make void notes for $50,000 in this state. > A FOWL BUSINESS.
