Alexander Votes mo"
A vote was then taken, Alexandec
heading the list with a positive no"
The other three voted in favor of it and
the order for the election was issued.
Five minutes after the settlement of
the proposition Supervisor Brady, the
new representative from Pomona, Wis
tied the hall and talked with the super
visors. He has not yet qualified and
would have been unable to vote mad he
attended the meeting.
Following the meeting Supervise"
Patterson explained his view of the
case as follows
I'VE feel that it was best for Will
mington to grant the petition. The
talk about free harbor is all right and
/ am as much in favor of a free harbor
as anyone, but / think we will have
more chance at the harbor now than we
would have had if the other course had
been taken.
THE county now owns about 10 feet
of water front and that is taken up by
fisheries. If we had denied the petition
we would have incurred the enmity of
the people of Wilmington and we would
have had no more water frontage than
before, and very poor prospects of get
ting any more. AS it is now we have
given Wilmington a chance to defend
her harbor against the encrOachments
of Long Beach. We have further given
the free harbor people the right to carry
the case to the supreme court. We re-
oeive the friendship of Wilmington and
stand a greater show of securing free
harbor than if we had refused the
petition"

FIRST HUSBAND STILL LIVES
Myron Maine Has Marriage AnnulIed
on Ground That Wife Has
Another Spouse

The marriage of Myron Maine and
Patience Maine was annulled yesterday
by request Of the husband. 1t was
stated in the complaint that in January,
1904 Maine met the woman whom he
afterward married. Before the mar
riage took place in Denver the woman,
who was known at that time as Mrs.
Vosburg, stated to Maine that her hus-
band, Vosburg. had been killed by a
street car in Los Ar geles.
Shortly after the marriage it de-
veloped that Vosburg was alive, and is
now alive and is in constant communi-
cation with his wife. No defense was
made by Mrs. Nosburg- Maine and the
annulment WAS granted by Judge Will
bur of the superior court.

said Graham. II have listened to bright
talent representing both sides of the
case and 1 have heard everyone in
terested in the proposition. IF we are
wrong in the case the supreme court
can easily rectify it and we will have
in the meantime treated Wilmington
with the same consideration as was
shown Hollywood and all other little
cities of the county,"

loaned 100000 at. 90 to 100 per cent.
4 Although brokers were compelled to
pay the highest prices in years for
cash with which to carry their stock
there was little excitement over the
situation. Many Stock Exchange
houses provided themselves several
months ago with time loans to carry
them over Jan. 1, which is a time
when money is always in great de-
mand for dividends, interest and other
year-end settlements. These time loans
are not affected by the call money
market. Some stocks were sold out
during the morning hours, principally
industrials, but in the main stocks
held well In the early trading consid-
ering the markets usual sensitiveness
to money conditions. In the Stock Elk
change the view was taken that the
stringency is temporary and that cas-
Ter conditions will prevail Immediately
after Jan. 1.

FORCED TO QUIT PUBLIC LIFE.
Spanish Premier Who Signed Peace
Treaty With America.

Madrid, Dec, 29.-The text of q let
ter from former Premier Montero Rios
to Premier Moret declining to repre-
sent Spain at the Moroccan conference
was made public during the day. In
this letter senior Montero Rios also de.
clares his purpose of permanently re-
firing from public life. His retirement
is due mainly to allegations in the
cortes that he surrendered the inter
ests of Spain in signing the peace
treaty with the United States and also
to the charges that he favored France
against Germany. The letter lengthily
reviews the calumnies and outrages
from which he says he has suffered
from his compatriots during the last
seven years through signing the
peace treaty with the United States
and declares that continued persecu-
ton is not warranted, as circumstances
compelled him to take the course he
adopted during the peace negotiations,
The premier during the day defended
Senior Montero Rios in the cortes, de.
claring that the government assumed
full responsibility for signing the
treaty with the United States.
