CALIFORNIA WINE MEN
OVERCOME FIRE LOSSES
Annual Report Shows Asso-
ciation Has Regained
Solid Footing
WILL PAY DIVIDENDS
Recent Legislation Helps
to Make the Outlook
Much Brighter
WILL PAY DIVIDENDS

The directors of the California
Wine Association met yesterday and
prepared a report of the operations OF
the association during the past year
and this will be submitted to the stock
holders today at the annual meeting
to be held at Hercules, Contra Costa
County The report shows that the
assets amount TO $7.9ss.sss.74. of which
$2.146,2s2 represents the value of the
wines on hand as inventorfed, s4,102,-
2S2 is in stocks of other companies and
s97.595 is in cash in banks The liza
bilities include capital stock of s4.354,-
200; surplus of sS2o,0o0. and bonds is
sued amounting to 81, 4S5, 900
Announcement will be made to the
stockholders that it is the intention
of the directors to resume the payment
of dividends at the rate of 6 per cent
per annum. making a quarterly /distri-
button, beginning in April. It will be
reported also that the price list that
went into effect January l. 1907. will
help to regain trade in markets which
during the existence of emergency
price lists issued after the April fire
were invaded by cheap wines from
manufacturers In the Eastern States.
With the recent adoption by ma
tional and State governments of dras-
tic pure food laws it is also set forth
'an era of prosperity should ensuf
for the California wine industry, liable
only to be marred by an overproduc-
tion as the result of a premature an
ticipation of the increase in demand"
Contracts have been made for the
erection of class A wine storage
building on a tract known as Wine
haven, near Richmond, where the asso-
citation has bought AZ acres. This
building will have an initial capacity
for 100000 gallons of wine and space
| for enlargement to 10000 600 gallons
A wine making plant will be erected
which will have a capacity eventually
| for the crushing of $4,000 tons OF
| grapes per annum. Bottling, cooper
age and other establishments will be
added including plants for utilizing the
| by-products of grapes, a department.
| that has been neglected largely. The
direct fire losses incurred by the asso-
citation have been covered by the profits
/ of a year and q small increase in the
surplus is shown.
The vintage of 1906 was satisfactory
in quantity as well as in quality OF
the wines produced and the reserve
/ wine stocks of the association have
been replenished. The association is
we'll prepared to meet the exigencies
/ of an abnormaliy heavy vintage sucI
as may occur In any favorable season
At the meeting today the old boarc
OF directors and officers will be re-
elected, including Percy T. Morgan as
president; j. Frowenfeld, vice presi-
! dent; w. Hanson secretary, and l. w

ROSTER DIVORCE SUIT
UNVEILS PATHETIC CASE
After Many Years of Happy
Welded Life Husband
Leaves Wife
MYSTERY IN SPEECH
Strange Impulse Rends Two
Hearts That Had
Been Content
MYSTERY IN SPEECH

Because with brief, bitter speech
Fred j. Roster, manager of the Cali
fornia Barrel Company and brother of
Brigadier General j. A. koster, Ma
tional Guard of California, had left his
wife, with whom he had lived for six
teen years, she reluctantly brought suit
for divorce yesterday. Roster had said
to her;
.sYou have been an ideal wife to me,
a perfect homemaker, but do not care
for you as husband should care for
his wife. 1 cannot explain the feeling
that have. but / must leave you.v
The separation occurred on Septem
ber 8, 1905. the day after Mrs. Rosters
birthday had been celebrated with
mirth and Fluctuations at the home of
]. L. Roster. father of the husband
The couple had married October 80,
1899.
Yesterday Mrs Roster brought Suit
for divorce from her husband, alleg
ing deserton, and asking for division
of the property, all of which is COM
munity She asks for $50 a month ALI
mony, $3.50 counsel fees and clear title
to the property at 1897 Masonic avenue,
where Mrs. Roster is now living in a
home made dainty by her at the time
when she and her spouse lived hap
PLY until the morning on which Roster
made his mysterious speech. Roster
was poor when he married.
wIFE'S HOPES DIE
Twice it is said, Roster has been
confined. in sanitariums for the cure of
mental diseases, and when he made his
oratorical parting with his wife she
believed that he was not of sound
mind and for months cherished that
feeling. hoping that he would return
to her. But no efforts toward recon
ciliation were made by the husband
The wife was destitute and without
relatives in this city on whom she
might call for aid except her husbands
people. who have befriended her
In the sixteen years of married life
not domestic trouble had crossed the
Roster threshold. September 2. 1905,
was typically happy day in Mrs. Kos
ters life. In the evening a family
group gathered at the home of ]. L.
Roster, the head of the family, and
the wife's birthday was feted. Roster
had brought her beautiful present.
The next morning he left her.
For months the wife hoped for the
return of her husbands love. When
| she became convinced of Rosters deci-
sion to live apart her health failed en-
tirely and she was sent to sanitarium
to recuperate. For four months she
was seriously i'll in the hospital and
when she recovered she reluctantly
prepared for a divorce action. Hiram
W. johnson and George Knight are her
attorneys

Owing to the poor attendance at the
February meeting Of Musicians Union
No. 6, no business was transacted and
this will entail much extra work at
the March meeting. The proposition of
fixing the quarterly dues will then be
acted upon. The agitation committee,
in making its report to the recent
board meeting regarding work done
during the preceding week, stated that
various establishments located on Pa
cific street. between KeaFny and Mont
gomery, were employing nonunion
musicians for dancing. Mention was
made particularly of W. Sears and T.
Havey as being opposed to union help.
The board of directors has decided to
make every possible effort to unionize
these resorts, and circumstances seem
to point to successful outcome.
