SUITS IN GERMANY.
Corporation VIII Try 10 Collect Abroad
for Policy Holders.

A corporation 20 be known as the
Organized Policy holders will be formed
TO undertake the bringing of suits in
Germany against German fire insurance
companies and the collection Of claims
The German companies owe something
like s15,000.000 to San Francisco policy
holders. Local capitalists, among them
some of the large losers by fire, have
agreed to put up the necessary funds
for the corporation. Proofs must be
prepared in this city, but suits must be
brought in Germany and singly ana not
on assigned claims, according to the
lawyers This will make it necessary
to send one or two representatives of
the corporation to Germany to take
charge of the interests of the policy
holders at that end of the line
All suits against the German compa-
nies must be begun in Germany within
a year after the fire. Four months have
passed and little has been accomplished
in any direction.
A meeting of policy holders of the
Transatlantic Fire Insurance Company
will take place at 81 Turk street next
Saturday at . .. m. Later a meeting
Of the policy holders of all the German
companies that have losses in this city
to settle Will be called.

HARTMAN CANNOT
BUY FROM HILL.
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

bPECIAL DISPATCH To THE CALL
SEATTLE, Aug. S.-President James
J. Hill will not consent to the sale of
any of the Great Northern's real estate
holdings in Seattle to the Hartman in
terests. This means that the Great
Northern will refuse to sell a right of
way on the line of Fifth avenue South
which might be utilized by Lne Union
Paciflc's Puget Sound project as an en-
trance to the proposed passenger sta
tion just east of Fourth avenue
The refusal of the Great northern to
open Fifth avenue to the Hartman line
will be communicated to the .ouncii
committee on corporations this week.
This will probably end the night for
the opening of Fifth avenue as a rail-
road thoroughfare and is likely to re-
suit in the granting of the Hartman
application for a franchise on Fourth
avenue.
