NON-SUIT NOT
STRICKEN OFF
JUDGE EDWABD8 BELIEVES IT
WAS PBOFERLY GRANTED.
His Opinion in tho Case of Mary Ann
llynn Against tho Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western Mutual Aid
Association Mrs. Flora Kohler
nd Others Bring Suit to Bccovor
$3,000 Damages for Injury Dono
to Their Property by FloodB Clif-
v ford Released on Ball.
The opinion handed down by Judge
Edwards, refusing to strike ofC tho non
suit In tho case of Mury Ann Kyon
against tho Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western Mutual Aid association, is as
follows:
Tho only Important question to be con
nldarcrt In tho disposition of this rule re
lates to tho construction of sections two
Mid throo of Artlclo XIV of defendants
by-laws. Tho regularity of tho assessment
nnd tho fact that tho deceased. Edward
Byan, was In arrears mora than forty-Ilvo
days, woro established by evidence that
could not bo reasonably disputed. Nor
was tho alleged tender supported by any
ouch testimony as would justify us In
submitting the question of tender to tho
Jury. Therefore, tho whole caso rests on
tho view taken of the by-law referred to.
A part of section two of Artlclo XIV, of
tho by-laws, Is as follows:
"A printed notice of each and every as
sessment shall bo posted on tho several
bulletin boards of tho Delaware, Iicka
winna nnd "Western Railroad company.
Buch' notlco shall bear dato and notify
mombers Interested within rorty-nvo days
from the dato of such notlco. Should
payment not bo made by any member on
or before tho forty-fifth day from tho
dato of such notice, cither to a collector
or to the secretary at Scranton, such fail
ure to pay suspends the member from
the association and docs not require a
notlco of .suspension from tho secretary.
Forty-five days Is hereby declared the
limit within which such payments may
bo made In order to retain membership
Jn tho association."
Section three reads thus: "At each reg
ular meeting' of tho association the finan
cial secretary shall report the names ot
nil delinquents as set forth In this ar
ticle, .whereupon tho association, by dec
laration of tho president, shall declare
puch delinquents suspended and debarred
from any benetlts whatsoever from tho
association. A proper record of such
declaration shall bu made upon tho rec
ords of the association."
It is Impossible to misunderstand or
mlsconstruo the language of the part of
section thrco above quoted. It Is clear
nnd unequivocal. Of the many by-laws
of beneficial associations that have been'
under consideration, wo have not seen
nny containing less ambiguous language
than that of section three In this case. A
failure to pay the assessment within
forty-fivo days "suspends tho member
from tho association, nnd does not re
quire a notlco of suspension from the sec
retary." So far as tho delinquent mem
ber is concerned, ho Is suspended from
tho association by the express language
of tlio by-law, without further notice.
Tho by-law is therefore self-executing in
tho fullest meaning of tho term.
It is claimed on tho part of tho plain
tiff that section two ot this by-law Is
modified by section three nnd Is not op
erative until tho president declares the
suspension at a meeting of tho associa
tion. Wc think this contention is un
tenable. Wo look upon section thrco as
a provision adopted by tho association to
keep a. record of delinquent members.
Tho financial secretary "reports the
names of all delinquents" and the presi
dent "declares such delinquents" tho de
linquents reported by tho secretary, sus
pended. Tho delinquency already exists
by tho terms of section two, and tho as
sociation for its own convenience and for
the purpose of keeping a correct record
makes the declaration provided in sec
tion three. There is nothing In this sec
tion which would lead in any way to tho
conclusion that tho positive, self execut
ing provision of section two is suspended
or postponed until any meeting or nny
declaration of the association. Tho rela
tion of tho delinquent member as n bene
ficiary of tho association Is governed en
tirely by tho terms ot section two. Any
other construction of tho by-law would
lead to confusion nnd uncertainty.
Our attention has been culled to the
case of Wheeler vs. Lackawanna Acci
dental fund, 5 Lack. I,. News, 7, nnd
niiulc vs. tho Diamond Accidental fund,
Ibid, 101. both cases decided in our own
court. Tho first case Is cited as author
ity for tho defendant. The two cases

membership must be brought nbout by
direct action of tho association, nfter no

ficial associations suspension from the
right to benefits and forfeiture of mem
bership, that account for tho npparcnt
difference in tho two cases cited. They
nro authority In the case at bar and so
far as they decide that a by-law which
suspends a member on failure to pay an
assessment within a given time, without
further notice, Is self-executing and con
clusive on tho dcllncincnl member with
out other acilon on tho part of the as
sociation. "Wo aro of the opinion, therefore, that
tho non-suit was properly allowed on tho
ground suggested In tho foregoing discus
sion. Now, August 11, 1002. tho rule to take
off non-suit is discharged.

THE MARKETS
Wall Street Rerlew.
New York, Aug. II. Today's dealings in
stocks were lurger than those of yester
day und there were more of the usual
market leaders that were conspicuous
In tho dealings. But tho market re
mained uneven and tho special features
of strength did not have news to explain
them beyond the reported activity of
speculative poolH. The Gould stocks con
tinued to bo well looked after, Texas and
Paclllo and Missouri Pacific being very
largely dealt in, but the leadership of the
market was assumed by Southern Pn
cillc, in which the dealings were more
than twice as great as In any other stock.
Hock Island was marked up : and
Louisville and Nashville advanced two
points on account of tho meeting of di
rectors today. A number or minor rail
road stocks nvulliiblo for possible ab
sorption wore strong features. Tho
Grangers nnd Paciilcs generally were af
fected in sympathy but the dealings were
on a small scale. In tho industrial liht
Sugar mado a conspicuous upward move
ment without explanation and the ex
press stocks continued to move widely in
splto of official denials of reports of a
merger. Amalgamated Copper, People's
Gas and Brooklyn Transit were conspicu
ously heavy nil day. The brilliant pros
pects for the country's crops were the
underlying Inlluence in the strength or
western railroad stocks. Total sales, roa.
M shares. The bond market was dull
but steady. Total sales, par value, $L',ti30;

changed on the last call.

Chicago Grain Market.
Chicago, Aug. 14. Bagged grain mar
kets, the result of renewed manipula
tion were tho rule today. Traders thought
that with the end of the July deals and
with excellent harvest In sight trade
would get back on a natural basis. But
tho mlddlo of August finds tho lloor in a
tumult again. One firm is supposed to
havo all the No. 2 red wheat in sight
and consequently the whent trade today
was erratic Four big houses aro moving
in the December corn and some of tho
same people havo out long lines ot oats.
Tlio new harvests to date have dono noth
ing to relievo tho danger of manipula
tion. Adverse weather has worked
against tho grading to such an extent
that contract stocks woro low. All these
conditions had turns at tlio market and
the result was wide and inconsistent
fluctuations. At the closo crop figures
had somo weight with speculators and
September wheat closed ftagc lower and
