2. One who attempts to relocate a mining claim on the theory that the required amount of annual assessment work has not been done, with full knowledge of the location and boundaries of the claim, cannot assert a forfeiture of title for failure, on the part of the original locators, to comply with the mining rules respecting notices of location. Yosemite Gold Min. & Mill. Co. v. Emerson, 374

S. Comp. Stat. 1901, p. 3200), the members of which are der § 7 of that act, may be recovered by liable for the threefold damages which, unviolations of the act, although a negligible those injured, in business or property by amount of intrastate business may be affected in carrying out the combination, and although the members of the combination

MULTIFARIOUSNESS. Lawson v. United States Min. Co.

6. The acquiescence by the judgment debtor in an invalid judicial sale of his interest in a mining claim cannot be regarded as an abandonment of the claim and an election to accept the sale as a disposition of his property. Crary v. Dye, 595

MONOPOLIES.

An Oklahoma compress company, though financially embarrassed, cannot lease its entire property and good will to a foreign corporation, with a covenant to lend its assistance to discourage competition against its tenant, and to refrain from engaging in the business of compressing cotton within 50 miles of any plant operated by the tenant, where such lease is executed in pursuance of a plan to assemble under one management or ownership the compression business in the cotton-producing states.

1. The duty imposed upon the attorney general of a state by the common law and statutes, requiring him to cause proceedings to be instituted against any corporation whenever it shall have offended against the laws of the state, and to enforce the railroad rate law at the instance of the railroad commission, sufficiently connects him with the enforcement of the statute to make him a proper party to a suit to enjoin its enforcement. Ex parte Young, 714

2. The mother's estate and her children by a second marriage are necessary parties defendant to a bill which seeks to set aside for fraud a family settlement made between the mother and the children of the first marriage, to annul the title which apparently flowed therefrom, to avoid collaterally decrees of the Porto Rican courts concerning the same, and to set aside, as simulated and fraudulent, the sales made in virtue of the title apparently vested by the settlement, where such bill, though alleging that the property transferred to the mother by such settlement was acquired by the nusband by inheritance, contains no averment concerning the property allotted to the daughters which tends to rebut the legal presumption of community as to the

2. The consent of defendant to the appointment of receivers, without setting up the defense that the complainants were not judgment creditors who had issued an execution which was returned unsatisfied, in whole or in part, amounts to a waiver of that defense. Re Reisenberg, 403

3. An objection of multifariousness based on misjoinder of parties and causes of action does not lie against a bill to enjoin ticket brokers from dealing in nontransferable reduced-rate excursion tickets, where the acts complained of as to each defendant were of a like character, their operation and effect upon the rights of the complaining carrier were identical, the relief sought against each defendant being the same, and the defenses which might be interposed being common to each defendant, and involving like legal questions. Bitterman v. Louisville & N. R. Co.

4. A bill by stockholders of a railroad company to enjoin it from complying with a statute relating to rates sufficiently sets out the reason for their commencing it and making the company a party defendant, by alleging that they had demanded of the corporate officers that they refuse obedience to the statute, and should institute suits to prevent its enforcement, but that the company and its officers had positively refused to do so, not because they considered the rates just, or that they would not be confiscatory, but because of the severity of the penalties provided for violation of the statute, to the ruinous consequences of which they would not subject themselves, and which no action by themselves, their stockholders, or directors, could avoid.
