THEY MAY VOTE BY PROXY
Fox Has Lost His Suit Against
the California Mining
Company.
Rights of Stockholders by Proxy De-
fined in an Opinion by Judge
SeaWeII.

Judge Seawell has decided the case of
Theodore Fox VS.. the directors of the
Consolidated California and Virginia Min
ing Company in favor of the defendant
directors.
The suit was to set aside an election held
on October 21, 1895, at which the de-
PENDANTS were elected. at the election, of
the ZIG, 600 shares of stock of the company
130, ,355 were voted, and of these last-nameu
shares 1898 were voted by Fish, one of
the directors, who held most of them by
proxy.
The stock voted by Fish stood in the
names of various people as trustees
Neither the books of the corporation nor
the certificates of stock disclosed the
names of the persons for whom the stock
was held in trust
1t was claimed that all the stock stand
ing in the name of trustee was Illegally
voted and that the persons named as
trustees IN the certificates were not legally
stockholders.
Under the act of A pril %, 1880. it was
provided that "all stock in each and every
mining corporation in this State shall stand
on the books of said company in all
cases IN the names of the real owners Of
such stock or In the names of the trustees
oL Such real owners, but in every case
where such stock shall stand in the name
OF trustee the party for whom he holds
shall be designated upon said books and
also in the body of the certificate of such
stock
This section, the court holds, is in con-
f1lct with section %, article 4, of the consti-
tuition, which provides the Legislature shall
not pass special laws in any case where
general laW can be made applicable There
is no reason, the court held, why a law
requiring the name of the beneficial owner
OF the stock of q mining corporation to
appear on the books or in the certificate
which would not equally apply to any cor
poration for profit.
There was no evidence that the stock
issued to the trustees.was issued without
the owners consent, and therefore the
court held that their consent must be
inferred. The stock was therefore legally
issued, and the mere fact that the trustees
had no real ownership in the stock other
than as holders of the legal title does not
impair their rlght to vote the stock so long
as the beneficial owners make no obiec-
ton. by permitting the stock to remain
IN the hands of the trustees the owner
tacitlY consented to allow it to be voted at
all elections. Whether the stock should
be voted by the person in whose name the
stock stands or by the holder of the certifi-
cate, so long as the latter does not object.
is a matter between them alone, with
which stranger has no concern
Judgment was entered confirming the
election of the individual defendants as
directors of the corporation named.

Miss Brown Gives Some Excel

Reform.
A BANGLE ON A FINGER-NAIL

"I wear boomers for comfort and clean
illness during bad weather. | am not a
new woman, and l would not vote if the
opportunity were presented. l have no re-
forms to accomplish, and L am perfectly
satisfied with my attire"
This is the pith of the causes Miss +. E.
Brown offers for wearing bloomers during
rainy weather. The young lady can be
seen almost any rainy day, when she has
business to transact, dressed in the cos
tune which she believes will ultimately
be worn py her sex, and which she claims
is the logical way to dress at this season o1
the year.
Il have been wearing boomers fol
nearly year now," said Miss Brown in
an interview last night, "and the more
use them the better satisfied l am with the
results. | have great deal OF walking tC

wind rampant l find that l am very com
fortably clothed. A little less than year

how women can travel around and sweep

FREE-MARKET CONVENTION.
Proposition to Have the Oranges Aid
the Local Movement.

A Proposition to Have the Oranges Aid
the Local Movement.
At recent meeting of the California
Fruit Exchange Edwards & Edwards were
appointed to confer with the special COM
mittee of the Merchants Association hav-
ing in charge the matter of establishing q
public market. The exchange declared in
favor of such market and promised to do
all in its power to help the thing along
Yesterday Mr.. Edwards called upon Sec
retary Freud, with whom he held long
conversation. Mr.. Edwards made sug-
gestion that may be favored and acted
upon. With a public market in view, he
suggested that a convention be held under
the auspices of the Merchants Association,
of the State Grange and branch oranges,
the Frult-growers' Association and kim
dred bodies, in fact, all producers who
would like to come in direct contact with
the consumers and who are not satisfied
with their dealings with the middlemen.
He believed that the oranges almost as
far south as Los Angeles would enter
heartily into a movement whereby their
members could be freed from the tax i'm
posed by the commission merchants.
Mr.. Edwards was told that he would
have to submit his proposition to Mr..
Kohlberg, the chairman of the frce-market
committee, who will present it to the as
sociation at the meeting tonight.
