BIG FEES DEMANDED
Attorneys for the Estate of Hi
ram A. Pearsons Ask for
$37,5oo.
Judge City Inclined TO Believe the
Compensation Is Out of
Proper ton

"It was once a theory" said Attorney
Haight in Judge Coffey's court yesterday,
"that an estate was for the benefit of the
heirs, but now it seems to be thought that
the estate is for the lawyers" This sar-
castle shaft was aimed at Joseph H. Moore
and Thomas F. Barry, the legal represent
atives of the executor of the estate of Hi
ram A. Pearsons. Messrs. Moore and Barry
had Just presented request for payment
for their services in behalf of the estate,
and the former had modestly demanded
S25, 900, while Mr.. Barry had announced
that he would be content with half that
sum.
Judge Coffey took hand in the contro-
versy and remarked that the matter OF
fees was something that gave him more
trouble than any one thing in the business
of his department. He said that the pay
ment demanded by Mr.. Moore was, to say
the least. the largest ever asked during his
experience for similar service under similar
circumstsnces. He also had word for
the lawyers representing the heirs, want
ing to know why the protection of the es-
tate was left entirely to the court. and
why they did not speak out in behalf OF
their clients
The Pearsons estate has been in the
courts for over six years, Hiram A. Pear
sons having been drowned in Lake Michi-
gan in 1885, He left real estate in this
City valued at almost 100000, portion
of which was sold to get money to pay be-
quests made in Pearsons' will. AS it now
stands the estate is worth 1898. .953 90.
Besides the $25, 900 now asked Mr.. Moore
has already received from the executor in
payment Tor services rendered $1,000 and
Mr.. Barry has had $4,000.
His Honor, in looking over the account
handed in, has already discovered mis-
take OF $l240, made by computing the ad-
minIstrator's com missions wrongly. He
has taken the entire matter of fees under
consideration

NO MEETING WAS HELD.
Ocean View Republicans Indignant Over
the Publication of a False
Statement

The effort of certain interested parties
in the Ocean View District to cause trouble
among the loyal Republicans of that Sec
ton has caused much indignation and
efforts are being made to discover the
author of a number of false stories that
have been circulated.
The latest canard published relates that
on Friday night last meeting OF tho
Farallon Nom Partisan Club, q mythical
organiza ton, was held at Murphy's Hall
and that 200 memb bers acted on certain
matters.
The names OF B. Murphy and J. PEN
dergas are mentioned as officers of the or
ganization, the names of the other officers
being unknown in Ocean View.
Both Murphy and Pendergas are known
to be stanch Republicans and mem bers
OF the Ocean View Mckinley and Hobart
Club, and the former. who owns the hall
where the meeting is alleged to have taken
place, denies that there was any such
gathering or that he ever was identified
with any such movement.

ship in Building and Loan Associations"
Secretary Naylor read paper on Con
tingent Fund" and explained why and
how such fund should be maintained.
James L. Fields read long paper on
Premium Plans. Division of Profits and
Cost of Loan" in which he entered into
a minute and technical discussion of sub
jects which require.a thorough knowledge
of the methods of loan associations to ap-
preciate.
Frank V. Wright OF San Jose, past presi-
dent and mem ber of the executive COM
mittee and at present secretary OF tie San
Jose Building and Loan Association, read
a paper on ''Matured Shares" He sug-
gested policy which will aid in lncreas-
ing the loaning and earning powers OF the
association, rather than allowing its entire
force to be absorbed and assuredly les
sened by the unnecessary disbursement OF
funds for the payment OF matured STOCK.
He suggested the listing, in order of ap-
plieation, the names of the holders OF
matured stock who are desirous OF obtain
ing their money, and will accent dis
count from the par value when cashed.
These may be paid out of the one-third
monthly receipts of the funds of the asso-
citation together with such rate OF interest
as may be determined until paid. ANY
shares remaining on the books OF the cor
poration at the annual appropriation OF
profits should receive their additional pro
rata of earnings. The shareholder who
desires to allow his matured stock to re-
main with the association may receive
quarterly interest al say s per cent per
annum and also distribution in the form
of 8 dividend.
The com mittee recommended the adop-
ton of a resolution asking the legislature
to continue the commission at the expense
of the State and one that all associations
in California create a contingent fund In
keeping with such conditions. These
were adopted.
Fremont Wood and Albert Meyer read
papers in which they suggested means to
treat deliHquents.
George a. Fisher, one OF the Building
and Loan Commissioners, delivered a
short address commencing the good work
the league has done. Mr.. Fisher did not
think it wise to ask the State to pay the
cost of the commission, as the mount,
only 25 cents share in ten years, is too
small.
TIE last paper was by G. <. Clark on
"Uniform Methods" in cond ducting the
business of the offices under the several
rules in vogue.
Messrs. Clark, Wood, Naylor, Wright
and Sbarboro were appointed committee
to present report at the next meeting on
the best rule for conducting the affairs of
associations.
The following officers were reelected for
the ensuing year: Frank Otis, president; !;
Albert Meyer, first vice-president; James
L. Fields, second vice. president; Charles
0 King, third vice president; Charles E.
