PREDICT SUCCESS
Of EXPOSITION

R. B. Hale said yesterday that the
men who had drawn Incorporation pa
pers for the Pacific Ocean Exposition
10 be held here IN 1913 felt that the ex-
position would be a great success and
receive worldwide recognition. "Peo-
pie are more interested in California
and San Francisco than ever before"
he said, and there will be a great in
terest evinced in the progress san
Francisco will have made seven years
after the catastrophe of last April"
The fair will not only commemorate
the discovery of the Pacific, but it will
also come at the time when the OPEN
ing OF the Panama canal is contem-
plated
In reference to the projected fair to
be held in Los Angeles In 1915 the fol-
lowing statement was made:
We have learned recently that the
people Of Los Angeles, with their usual
progressiveness, have decided TO hold
a peace conference and exposition in
that city in 1915, and we have been
very much pleased to learn that this is
the case, as in my estimation and in
the estimation of others who have
ing SO closely together will show to
the world that California is up and do
inc. We know we shall have the hearty
cooperation not only of California, but
OF the people of entire Pacific Coast.
for the fair we shall hold in San Fran
cisco and il behooveS all OF US TO IKE
wise get back of the Los Angeles pros
ject, which viii take place two years
later.

MILLER & Lux co.
CASE DECIDED

By decision of the Supreme Court
yesterday the stockholders of the Mil
Ter & Lux Company Will receive annual
dividends amounting to ssso.oOo year
from 1909 to 1907, inclusive. a legal
technicality having been removed
which has kept the money tied UP.
The stock of the company amounts to
S12. .000, ,o0e. which will now be divided
among the stockholders.
When Charles Lux died on March Is,
1897. the people to whom the property
of the company fell concluded that to
have it divided at that time would
mean q great loss. and thus a corpora
tion was formed for the purpose of
conducting the business until the prop
erty could be divided without loss. 1t
was decided that s360,000 should be
distributed among the stockholders, in
proportion TO their holdings, for the
years mentioned But section 500 of
the Civil Code seemed to prevent this,
for it provides that directors of a
company have no right to divide the
capital stock of the organization.
To bring the matter TO a settlement
Alexander R. Baldwin, one of the
stockholders. began suit to disburse
the amount Of money each year as
planned The lower court decided in
his AdkOIs Duk dnOIncE SlOChHOlu0Ts
Melissa \. Potter, objected and ap
pealed the case TO the Supreme Court
In affirming the decision of the
lower court, the Supreme Court de-
clared that the case in question was
not affected by the law preventing the
sale of stock by the directors, as the
corporation was formed expressly for
that purpose This is explained in the
following words:
Judgment in the case at bar is
founded upon the agreement and con-
tract Of the organizers of the corpora
tion, and of their agent, the corpora
tion itself, and the distribution of
$360.000 annually for a certain period
viii not be the result of any miscon-
duct OF the board of directors.

Alexander Schwartz Attends the Races
and Comes Back Without the
Much Wanted Bank Roll

Alexander Schwartz says he can't pay
his wife alimony out of the 1890 he
had in the bank because he took it out
of the bank, took a tip from friend.

ty minutes late. Grace Schwartz want
ed a portion of the $1,000 to assist her

Gently sued for. and Schwartz appeared
in Judge Troutt's court yesterday
morning to explain why she would have
to do without it.
Mrs. Schwartz said that her husband
was a broker before the fire and earned
$3.50 a month, but that when she asked
him for any of it he told her to whistle
for it, and she whistled in vain.
Schwartz lost his business at the time
of the fire and now makes only $65 a
month, but the court ordered him to
pay Mrs. Schwartz $50 for attorneys
fees and SIS month alimony during
the tendency of her action, and set the
hearing of the case over for two weeks.

REQUEST BOARD To
SELL FRANCHISE

The Board of Supervisors met yes
terday as a committee of the whole to
consider the petitions of the Devisa-
dero- Street Improvement Club and
many property owners and merchants
that a franchise be sold to the highest
bidder for a trolley line from the cor
ner of Page and Scott streets to Du-
boce avenue, TO Noe. Sixteenth, Church,
Eighteenth, Valencia and Twentieth
streets and Potrero avenue. About 100
members of the club were present to
urge the sale of the franchise and
several made addresses to the board.
john Henderson, after reciting the
benefits that would accrue to the pub
lie if the road were built. advised the
Supervisors not to pay attention to the
newspapers. This remark was rather
soothing to the board. in view of the
recent grant Of valuable privileges to
the United Railroads with no corre-
spending return to the city.
w. T. Smith said If the United Rail-
roads did not bid for the franchise,
some other interests would, and have
the road connect with a crosstown
line on Scott street
Carl Warner said the franchise re-
quested was not a political move and
D. Davis said the Supervisors would
not be criticised for granting It
Supervisor Nicholas moved that the
committee report on the petition next
Monday. saying:
Il have some property in the district
which this new line will tap and 1
would like to see the matter hurried
along"
The motion prevailed and favor

presented at the next meeting of the
