HAWAIIAN COMMISSIONERS.
They Are Appointed by the President, Who
Desires to Use the Islands as "a

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE presi-
dent has appointed Senator Cullom, of
Illinois; Senator Morgan, of Alabama;
Representative Hit, of Illinois; San
ford Dole, president of the Hawaiian
republic, and w. Frear, of Hawaii, to
be commissioners under the Hawaiian
annexation resolution The president
desires that the annexation shall take
place promptly, as it is the intention
to move troops to the new possessions
and create base for the continued
operations in the Philippines. The
$4,000 troops now at San Francisco
can be transported to Honolulu and
camped there, to be drawn upon as
needed by Gen, Merritt A depot of
supplies can be established as we'll. 1t
will be much easier to carry on the
campaign with the Hawaiian islands
as the base than with the long journey
from San Francisco to Manila to be
taken into consideration for every
movement of men and supplies.

THE ORGANIZATION GROWING
RAPID INCREASE OF RAILWAY
MEMS CLUBS.
Bread-Winners Who Insist on JUS
tice From All Political
Parties.

The largest and most enthusiastic
meeting of the Railway Employees Po-
litical Club thus far was held at its
regular place of meeting last night at
Pythian Castle. Before the meeting
was called to order it was necessary for
President Reguin to call on the Ser
geant- TO procure seats for the
standing members.
The steady increase of attendance at
the clubs meetings certainly shows
that the railroad men are in earnest in
regard to this movement and the ener-
getic manner with which they are en-
tering into the movement shows that
they intend to make the organization a
permanent and beneficent one.
The business of the club went through
in its regular order Secretary Hebron
read communications from the clubs
recently organized at Rocklin. Red
Bluff and Dunsmuir, which showed that
the men at those points are likewise
| taking great interest in the organiza-
ton, having increased their member
ship nearly 30 per cent. since Messrs.
Reguin, Heffron and Sweeney visited
them
Mr.. Heffron also read a communica-
ton from Truckee, which told the mem
bers that the railway employees at that
point thought we'll of the correspond
ence he had sent there, and had or
ganized with a membership of fifty.
This completes the territory assigned
to the Sacramento club to cover. and

preciated the quick and effective work

of general advisory board, which had

tee with an amendment providing that
the representation on the board be one

or less, and where the club exceeds 80
| members, one delegate shall be allowed

The Corresponding Secretary was in
structed to communicate the action of
the club to the San Francisco and other
clubs, and in due time the clubs pro

THE DUTIES OF EXECUTOR,
NOT ENTITLED TO UNUSUAL
COMPENSATION.
An Interesting Ruling by Judge
Hughes in the Runyon
Estate.

In the matter of settling the final ac-
count in the estate of Sol Runyon, de-
ceased, Judge Hughes yesterday de-
clined to allow the claim of E. Damn
manager of the estate and one of the
executors named in the will of the de-
ceased-additional pay for acting as
such manager.
Judge A. P. Catlin presented DAMS
claim for extraordinary services, while
White & Seymour, representing Mrs.
Runyon, and Johnson & Kleinsorge,
representing Mrs. Buckman, daughter
of deceased, protested against it's al
lowance.
From the arguments presented it was
shown that for many years preceding
the death Of Runyon Damn had acted
as manager of the property, and in the
will was named as one Of the execu-
tors, it being stipulated that he should
receive $1,000 for his services as such.
Dams attorney argued that his serv-
ices as manager We're extraordinary,
and cited numerous authorities to show
that in cases where extraordinary serv-
ices had been performed by executors
courts had allowed payment for the
same. 1t was asked that Damn - SAL
ary-S1O0 per month-be allowed from
the date of Mr.. Runyon's death.
The attorneys representing Mrs. Run
yon and Mrs. Buchanan contended that
the sum set apart in the will for the
executors was for the purpose of am
ply recompensing them for any and all
services, ana stated that had the usual
percentage been allowed for admins
tering, they would have received only
half the amount SO set apart.
They cited the statute which pro-
vides that where a testator has speci-
fled the amounts to be paid an admin
istrator the latter can receive nothing
more unless he first revokes the will.
They We're willing, thQy Nid, for Mr..
Damn to revoke the provisions of the
will and take his 500 per month-the
sum received by him as manager of the
estate
Judge Hughes, in refusing to allow
the claim, said that administrators are
often appointed not only for their bust
ness abilities in settling up such mat
tiers, but for their general knowledge OF
the affairs of the estate or for their
superior knowledge of the land. Law
yers who are appointed administrators,
he said, never put in claims for extra
ordinary services, though frequently
their appointment was due to the fact
that their legal knowledge and assist
ance would be called into use. He had
no doubt but that Judge Catlin had
often stood in just such a position.
Judge Hughes inferred that Damn had
been named executor because of his SUI
perior knowledge of the property and
r mr. ha f,Irt hqY N a
the large sum set apart for him in the
will was so set apart with a view of
remunerating him for services other
than those pertaining to mere business
details in settling up the estate.
