Against Medical Society

The injunction asked for by Dr. F. P.
Canac-Marouis to restrain the COM
mittee on ethics of the San Francisco
medlcal society from proceeding with
the investigation of charges of irregu-
lar practices against him was granted
by Judge Seawell yesterday. The order
was made on a statement of facts
agreed to by the attorneys for both
sides. While the Injunction prohibits
the committee from trying or hearing
testimony on the charge of unprofes-
slonal conduct heretofore filed with the
society against DIR. Canac- Marquis, it
does not prevent the filing of another
charge covering the same matter.
Inc order says that nothing in the
Injunction shall prevent the society
from proceeding with the hearing upon
anything ever done or ever claimed to
nave been done at any time in the past,
or any matter or thing hereafter to be
done' or claimed to be done in the

attorney Kaufman, counsel for the
society. stated in explanation of this
order that he advised the officials of
the society that as the strict form of
the bylaws had not been followed in

motion by the Commercial cable
company to quash the service of the
summons in the case upon officers of
the Postal telegraph. on the ground
that those officers had no connec ton
with the Commercial company, was ar
Sued and taken under submission.
Percy T. Towne, attorney for the Com
mercial cable company, said if the mo-
ton to, quash were granted it would
end the controversy, as it would show
there was no cause of action, and the
injunction would therefore fall. He
argued that the Commercial cable COM
pany does no business in California. 1t
had no office here, and it's through bust
ness from eastern states to the orient
was handled by the Postal telegraph
company as agent. Towne said the
Commercial cable company regarded
the matter as very important, and the
general counsel in New York was send
ing telegrams every day asking to
have the injunction removed

beverly Hodghead, attorney for the

terminal of the cable line was in San
francisco it was manifest the Com
mercial company was doing business

ing business in Manila and Honolulu,
and yet denied it was doing business
In San Francisco, which Hodghead
said was an anomalous situation.

Reveals Secrets of
His Personal
Holdings
NEW YORK. Nov. "A

NEW YORK, Nov. "A.
Closing his testi-
mony today in the fed
eral suit to dissolve
the Standard oil COM
pany. John d. Rookie
feller threw some un-
expected light on the
popular question into
what channels OF in
vestment followed his
tremendous earnin gs
from the oil combina-
tion. Rockefeller was
10th to state the
names of the railroads
in which his invest
ments were made, but
did so after entering
his objection.
The head of the so
called oil trust de-
clared that his hold
lngs in railroads con-
sisted chiefly in bonds,
and that with the eX-
ception of a few roads
In which he held only
s m all amounts o {
stocks. he preferred
the bonds as a form of
investment. Rockefel-
ler's appearance on the
witness stand today
will likely be his last
in any court proceed
ing. He appeared great
" delighted that his
long ordeal as a wit
ness was over and
hurried from the room
when counsel excused
him.
