GOLD MINE DEAL IN COURT Judge Thornoll Patiently Listens to the Contention of Lawyers , COMPLETION OF THE HEARING IS REACHED Intimation tlint Doyle Prniiiluluntly buuurrd 11 .IiiilKinent Aitalnnt Ilurim nnd that It Should lie Set Anlde. For over ten hours yesterday Judge Thornell In the district court sat patiently listening to the arguments of counsel upon tliu motion , to sot aside the Judgment taken by James A. Doyle fln his now famous suit against John F. Burns , president of the Portland Gold Alining company of Colorado. In order to complete the hearing yeatcrday Judge Thornell held a special session last night , at which John N. Baldwin , counsel for Doyle , made his dosing reply to Air. Patterson's concluding argument in support of the motion. When court convened yesterday morning .Mr. Baldwin resumed his argument and spoke for six hours with a' adjournment of an hour for dinner. Air. Patterson theti followed with his closing argument nnd spoke until court adjourned al 6 o'clock. Air. Haldwtn Informed the court that he would llko to make a reply to Air. Patterson and Judge Thornell agreed to hold a special Hesilon In the evening. Air. Baldwin's argument was the conten tion that Burns was served with personal notice of the action hero ; tliat he appeared and filed a motion to quash service of this notico. Hums contended that this notice constituted simply a special appearance. That question was thoroughly argued to Judge Smith , who overruled Burns' motion and held that It was not a special , but a gen eral appearance. It therefore became neces sary for Burns to plead. However , before he did anything further In the courts here ho went to Colorado and secured an Injunction against Doyle there , restraining him from continuing his case In the Iowa courts : that In this proceeding In Colorado he took the action already had in the court here to baie his application for nn Injunction Uieie : that the proceeding In Colorado was illegal and unlawful ; that Uurns used the knowledge ho had of the pendancy of the action here in the proceeding there ; that Doyle upon proper advice refused to comply with the Colorado order and took his Judgment ; that Burns was now In this court asking to set asldo this Judgment , but In order to do this two things must be shown first , that Burns liad a defense , and second , a reasonable ex cuse for not answering and preventing Judg ment here. Burns , he contended , had abso lutely failed to show any reason or excuse such as contemplated by the statute , via. : accident , mistake , death , surprise or lack of knowledge. None of these existed. Ho further contended that Burns had delicti the processed of the Iowa court and had , and IB , using the processes of the court of Colorado for oppressing Doyle ; that the Iowa court , having Jurisdiction of the parties and the subject matter and having acquired that Jurisdiction first , the law and the constitu tion of the United States required the courts of Colorado to recognize the proceeding here , and on the reason of comity between the two states should have refused to Inter fere. fere.Air. Air. Baldwin In concluding his argument further Insisted that Burns had a proceed ing In this court and a proceeding In Colorado rado , but that he had confidence In neither and was experimenting with both : that he was afraid of his position In each and de sired to hold on to both : that he took the record of this court to Colorado and ued ! It to get an Injunction there and having se cured that Injunction upon this record tie imed It to oppress Doyle and Incarcerate him. Then finding that Doyle would not yield to the oppression. After seven months of experimenting In Colorado , Uurns brought the very same transcript from the Colorado court down here , filed it In this court and asked that upon that very same record , and with which he Is keeping Doyle in Jail , this court for mercy and leniency and begged tills court upon that same record In the exercise of Its discretion to permit him to plead here. Air. Patterson In his closing argument con tended that Doyle had secured his Judgment by fraudulent and perjured testimony and that It b had a right cause of action against Burns he would not bo afraid to bring his suit In the courts of Colorado , but this coun sel Insisted ho did not dare do. Ho said he could eislly understand that Doyle was willIng - Ing to defy the courts of his state If he could have close upon $1,000,000 to heal his wounds with. The Judgment should , ho In stated , bo sot asldo In the Interest of law and Justice. Rveryono will bo pleased to know that they nro to have an opportunity to hear Edward P.

Increasing ttio boundaries of the eity. It Is estimate1 ! thot the decision will affect several hundred property owners In Des Molnes. The case was entitled J. II. and Lena Sabers against 0. A. C'hllders. A demurrer of the defendant to the petition of the ulalntlff was overruled by the court. The plaintiff's grantor , Mrs. Littleton , owned six acres of land outhlilo ot the city of Des Mnlnes prior to 1800 which was occupied by her as a homestead. Ily the act of 1890. Increasing -the boundaries of the city of DPS Alolnw. this liomeiteii'l ' was Included within the corporate limits o ( the city of Des Molne . While the proper.y was In the country and occupied aa a home stead , the plaintiff's grantor was entitled 10 the whole six acres as a homestead. When It became a part of the corporate town she would be entitled to only one-half acre. Un der the code of 1873 this- land , although it became a part of the city , -would not he re duced to the one-half acre as a homestead If it was platted. Uy the new code of 1SD7 this rule was changed , providing in BUD- Ktanc'o that the homestead should bo reduced to one-half acre If within the corporate limits of a city or town. Numerous persons had ob tained judgments against plaintiff's grantor since 1S90 and prior to 1SD7 and the question was whether their Judgments were a lion upon the five and a half acres other than the homestead within the corporate limits. The court held , first , that the law of 1890 , which extended the boundaries of the city of DCS Molnrti would not change the homestead - stead rights of this six acres , that law be ing one of special legislation anil therefore unconstitutional as affecting the rights of the homesteaders. The court further held that under section 48 of the code of 1897 , repealing the code of 1873 , nil rights that had then accrued were reserved and as far i as property was vested with a homestead j right nt the time of the adoption of the j ! code of 1S97 , this right was still reserved under the now code.
