MARTIN WON'T GIVE UP
Another Fight for Fire Commissioner In
Progress in San Francisco

SAN FRANCISCO, March 25.-There is
going to be pretty fight when Collin M.
Boyd attempts to take his seat as fire
commissioner.
"Jack" Martin, whom Boyd has been
appointed to succeed. declares emphatic
ally that he will not quietly surrender his
seat and that Mr.. Boyd will have to OBJ
tain legal decision in his favor before
he can begin to act. This contest of Mr..
Martin, however, will differ from previous
contests for state offices in that the COM
missioner who is about to precipitate it,
will not have the support of his asso-
ciates on the board. Commissioners Nc
Donald and Bohen emphatically favor the
substitution of Boyd for Martin and will
vote to seat the former, while it is gen.
orally understood that Edwards will pose
as Martins friend. While many stories
are being circulated in explanation of
Martins removal the true cause is pro-
baby found in the charges of political
partisanship that were recently preferred
against him.

covery are very good.

A BOON FOR THE COMBINE
Decision That Says Insurance Men May
Consolidate

SAN FRANCISCO. March 25.-In the
United States Circuit Court this morning
Judge McKenna rendered decision in
the injunction proceedings brought by
the Continental Insurance Company
against the Board of Fire Underwriters of
the Pacific Coast. The decision is against
the Continental Company, and holds that
the Board of Underwriters is legal body,
and that its members had a right to say
that they would not do business with
companies not mem bers of the union.
The only point of decision favoring the
plaintiff is regarding the action Of the
San Jose agent of the combine who adver-
tised he would cancel any Continental
policies brought to him. The court holds
that the combine had no right to give
notice to this effect.
