Trader\u2019s Live Stock Exchange, Appellant.\n(Not to be reported in full.)\nAppeal from the City Court of East St. Louis; the Hon. Robert H. Flannigan, Judge, presiding.\nHeard in this court at the October term, 1913.\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed May 1, 1914.\nStatement of the Case.\nBill by William \u2022 U. Halbert, administrator of the estate of Frank Moonan, deceased, against Trader\u2019s Live Stock Exchange to recover the value of a certificate of membership belonging to deceased at the time of his death. From a decree finding in substance that the material allegations of the bill had been proved and that complainant was entitled to the relief prayed, defendant appeals.\nThe statement of the allegations of the bill and the sufficiency of the allegations were before the Appellate Court in 173 Ill. App. 229. The further proceedings in the cause were upon the filing of the remanding order in the court below at the November term, 1912.\nWhitnel & Browning, for appellant.\nE. W. Eggmann, for appellee.\nAbstract of the Decision.\n1. Boards of trade and exchanges, \u00a7 54 \u2014when decree awarding recovery for conversion of membership certificate sustained by the evidence. On bill filed by an administrator of a deceased member of a live stock exchange against the exchange to recover the value of a membership certificate belonging to the deceased, alleging that the exchange wrongfully and without authority obtained possession of the certificate and canceled the same after the death of the deceased, held that a decree for the complainant was sustained by the evidence.\n2. Boards of\" trade and exchanges, \u00a7 54 \u2014right to maintain suit in equity for conversion of membership certificate of deceased member. On bill by an administrator of a deceased member of a live stock exchange against the exchange to recover for the conversion of a membership certificate, held immaterial so far as the right to maintain the suit is concerned whether claims had been presented, filed and allowed against the estate of the deceased.\n3. Appeal and error, \u00a7 389 \u2014when objection that the facts proved do not show jurisdiction in chancery is waived. On bill to recover for the conversion of a membership certificate in a live stock exchange, held that the case did not belong to the class of cases in which the court should raise of its own motion the question whether, from the facts proved, it had jurisdiction of the subject matter, but that the case belonged to that class where such a question is waived in the absence of objection in the trial court.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to XV and Cumulative Quarterly, same topic and section number."
