AN EXTRA SESSION.
The Community Property Law
Clogs Business.
Trouble That May Be Caused by the limo
cent Appearing Words, A Valuable
Consideration"

There is some talk of holding an extra
session of the Legislature, with the object
of altering or repeating the amendment to
Section 172 of the Civil Code, passed at the
last session. The amendment, which deals
with the law on community property, is
creating considerable stir among business
men, who assert that all transfers of prop
erty are thereby rendered a tedious opera
ton until some way out of the practical diff
Gculties it creates has been arrived at.
The alteration in the law looked an innO-
cent one, and the Legislature, won over by
the eloquence of Clara Foitz and urged by
their natural desire to give the fair sex their
due, passed it without the slightest appre-
hension that they were tying the hands of
busy men behind their backs and clogging
the complicated wheels Uf financial opera
tons.
THE wIFE's CONSENT.
The amendment. reduced to condensed
form, runs as follows: The husband has the
same control other than testamentary, of
all community property as he has OF his sep
a rate property, provided, and here comes
the Objectionable part of the amendment
that he cannot make gift of such prop
eIty or convey the same without a valuable
consideration unless the wife in writing con-
sent thereto.
The grievance lies in those iunoeent-look-
-
language IS somewhat loose and gives good
deal of play ON either side. No one can feel
secure that the amount named in particu-
lar deed of transfer will be upheld as a
valuable consideration And, as a conse-
quence, business men hesitate as to the
value OF securities, and the bachelors alone
can be safely dealt with. To get the written
consent of a wife to the smallest change of
property is manifestly Incompatible with
the necessary promptness. And unless this
is obtained bankers especially feel them
selves on thin ice.
Various ways out of the trouble have been
suggested. II has been proposed to get up
test cases and obtain a Supreme Court de-
cisIon as TO the Interpretation of the act.
DIFFICULT QUESTION.
But" said lawyer to CALL reporter
yesterday, "l do not see how any amount of
Supreme Court decisions could settle the
matter. What is a valuable consideration
must vary with the circumstances of each
particular case. No sure ground could be
reached unless the court would lay down a
rule that n certain per cent of the appraised
value should be regarded as valuable con-
sideration and that is out of the question.
| do not see how the difficulty can be got
round except by statute"
So the Legislature will pro baby have to
patch up its handiwurk.

limits was taken up. Several aSphaltum
roofers addressed the committee and held
that asphaltum roofing was as safe as any
that could be devised, and that no fire had
ever been started in this city by the burning
of such roofs by falling rockets. A long

garding the quantities of tar used and stress
was laid on the subject of insufficient gravel
ing. The committee promised the professors
to consider their interests before the order
was finally passed.

JAPANESE CASES.

Women Refused Landing Under the New
immigration Law.
The cases of four japanese women who
were refused landing first by State Commits
sioner of immigration Thornley,, and SUISSE
quently by DR.. Hatch, on his appointment
as Federal Inspector of Immigration. be-
cause of their liability to become public
charges, came uD before Judges Sawyer and
Beatty in the United States Circuit Court
yesterday. The women would have been
returned to Japan when first refused land
ing but for the interpositi0n of the writ of
habeas corpus, which brought the cases be-
fore United States Commissioner Hougnton,
who held that the acts of the Inspector of
immigration were final and were not sub
ject to review By the United States courts.
Counsel for the women filed exceptions,
which brought the cases before the Circuit
Court yesterday.
Lyman l. Mowry, attorney for the jap
anese women, attacked the new immigra-
ton law, claiming that ii is unconstitutional
because it vests an executive officer with
judicial functions. He also held that the
appointments of both Hatch and Thornley,
were void, because they were appointed by
the Secretary of the Treasury, whereas the
appointing power was vested in the Federal
Commissioner of immigration. The Court
reserved decision upon the briefs submitted.

Mrs. Spanier Refuses to Pay Her Dead
Husbands Bills.
Shortly after Joseph Spanier, the cigar
maker, departed this life it was found that
he had left widow to mourn his loss.
His brothers and sisters denied that he mac
ever married, and there was rosy prospect
of an interesting will contest. Subsequently
the family acknowledged Mrs. Spanier, who
produced evidence that she had been mar
ried by contract to the decea sed.
AT that time it was thought that the estate
was worth $4,000, but the administrator,
Jacob Sharp, becams a defaulter and the
funds disappeared. His bondsmen were
obliged TO return the money. and now the
creditors of the estate are demanding their
money. To add to Mrs. Spanier's trials, q
brother of the deceased has come from
Europe with the avowed purpose of prov
ing that she was never married to his
brother.
Mrs. Spanier disputes the claims of the
creditors, who were before Judge Coffey
yesterday, on the ground that they are
poker debts. The creditors are Charles
Frank. who claims $500; Marks Barnett,
who claims $3.50. ana p. D. Linville, who
claims $500. The hearing was postponed
until July 18th.
