COMP ANY FOR NEW
STREETCAR LINES
San Francisco Electric Rail-
ways, Capitalized at SlO,OOO,-
900, Files Its Articles

Articles of Incorporation of the San
Francisco electric railways company
formed to build 2 Il miles of street rail-
way in this city. were filed yesterday.
The company is capitalized at 10000
600, of which only s2.5OO has been sub
scribed. The route of the new car line
is given as follows: Starting at the in
tersection of Page and Scott streets and
running thence along Scott street into
Duboce, into Noe street, into Sixteenth
street into Church street, into Eight
eenth street. into Valencia street, into
Twentieth street to Potrero avenue. The
articles give the company the general
right to build on other streets.
The incorporators of the company are
Lewis F. Byington, the attorney; Fred
erick V. Scott, who is connected with
the West Coast life insurance company
and whose father is the general repre-
sentative on the Pacific coast of that
company; John r. Tyrrell, an attorney.
formerly of Grass Valley; John f.
Forbes. the certified accountant, who
has charge of the books of the United
Railroads. and w. II. Orrick, the attor-
ney. Byington has subscribed $2,100
and each of he other incorporators has
subscribed for one share or 500. Forbes
is named as the treasurer OF the cor
poration.
When questioned about the company
last night Attorney Byington said he
was unable to talk freely at that time
and refused to state who was behind
the project.
1T is an independent corporation, .
Byington said. 1T has no connection
with the United Railroads. The board
of supervisors has been petitioned by
the Devisadero street Improvement club
TO authorize a line over the route men
toned in the articles of incorporation,
and If the board grants that applica-
tion this corporation is ready to go
ahead and build the line. Further than
this am not at liberty to speak at
present. There has been no meeting of
the directors yet"

SETS LIMIT FOR
EMBRYO LAWYERS
Applicants Who Fail May Not
Take Second Examination
for Six Months
Court Order Issued to Guide
Prospective Candidates TO :
Legal Profession


Hereafter applicants for admission to
the bar who fail to pass the examina-
tions must wait six months before TAX
ing a second examination.
The above order was issued by the
supreme court and the district court OF
was called to the fact. that the two
law students, L. H. Bailey and T. H
Barto, who, falling to pass the recent
examinations in this city. had pro-
ceeded to Sacramento a few weeks later
and taken the. examination before the
district court of appeal Of the third
district and been admitted to practice
After their certificates had been is
sued the justices discovered that the
required time had not elapsed and the
licenses We're revoked. Later. after
discussing the case, the justices re-
granted the certificates, but agreed
that hereafter all applicants who fail
to pass must wait six months before
taking a second examination and that
the examination must be taken In the
district within which the applicant re-
sides.
In the matter of the suit for an
accounting of Anna j. ellison against
Dr. George II. Derrick. the district
court of appeal reversed the decision
of the lower court and ordered that
Derrick be paid the sum of $9S6.62
which amount he claimed to be due
him for board and lodging for Mrs
Gibson, his mother
Early in 1902 Derrick was appointed
guardian for his mother. The guar
dianship lasted less than a year, and
at its conclusion Mrs. ellison asked for
an accounting. Derrick was allowed
$50 month from the estate during the
time he acted as guardian. After Mrs.
ellison was restored to competency she
roomed and boarded with her son, for
which. he alleged, he received no COM
pensation. The lower court denied him
compensation for that period and the
appellate court yesterday reversed the
decision. Since the action was ap-
pealed Mrs. ellison died and her estate
is now being probated in the Oakland
courts
In the case of A. Nordstrom and Is
others against the Corona City water
company, which was an action to re-
cover money due for services per-
formed, the supreme court affirmed the
decision of the lower court. Nordstrom
and the others worked for A. L. Nc
Connell. under contract with the water
company When they did not receive
their wages, they brought action
against Mcconnell and secured a judg-
ment for 1884 Mcconnell then
brought suit against the water com
panysand got judgment for 5000.
The water corporation refused to pay
Mcconnell. and in the meantime Nord-
strom and his associates brought an
attachment against McConnelfs judg-
ment, and according to yesterdays de-
cision, Nordstrom and the IS others
will receive their money before the
contractor gets his.

WHISKEY FOR RHEUMATISM
Unusual Prescription by Renowned
Physician is Producing Won
derfuI Results

The increased use of whiskey for
rheumatism is causing considerable dis
cussion among the medical fraternity.
1t is an almost infallible cure when
mixed with, certain other ingredients
and taken properly. The following
is the formula:
ITO one half pint of good whiskey
add one ounce of Toris compound and
one ounce of syrup Sarsaparilla com
pound. Take in tablespoonful doses be-
fore each meal and before retiring"
This is said to produce almose imme-
diate results.
Not only will this formula promptly
relieve the muscular pains but it also
makes one of the most effective system
builders known to the profession 1t
will increase the appetite and If use is
continued will restore full physical
vigor TO all persons of failing strength.
especially the decline caused by age.
The Toris compound in connection
with the other ingredients has such a
decided action in purifying the blood
that the good effects are noticeable
after the first few doses but it would
be a serious mistake to discontinue
until health is completely recovered.

STATE FREIGHT RUNS
INTO THE MILLIONS
Railroad Commissioners Pre-
pare Report on Taffic

In the annual report of the state rail-
road commissioners, now being pre-
pared for the governor, it is shown
that during the fiscal year 1907-19OS
the railroads of California carried close
to 100000 tons of freight. Fourteen
million were carried by the Southern
Pacific. 100000 by the Atchison, To-
peka and Santa Fe, 100000 by the
San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake,
and the remainder by the smaller rail-
roads of the state.
Three million tons OF milling prod
ucts; such as wheat oats and cereals.
were carried during the year; 472, 900
tons of flour, -as compared to $4,000
tons of sugar, about 20 pounds of sugar
to every 100 pounds of -four. More than
500 900 tons of liquor were hauled dur
ing the same space of time, the largest
portion of 1t coming to San Francisco.
Close to 100000 tons of cement were
carried through the state during the
year.
This, of course. does not include the
amount that reached San Francisco by
the sea. The amount of steel hauled
was not large, much of that product
being manufactured and used in San
Francisco

PRESCRIPTIONS FAILED:
CUTICURA CURED HIM

"I have used the Cuticura Remedies
for a very bad case OF eczema with COM
plete success. About fifteen or eighteen
years ago the disease developed in the
shape OF large pinhead on top Of my
hand. 1t burned and itched so much
that was compelled to show it to doc
tor. He pronounced it ringworm, and
made very light Of it. He gave me a
wash and told me to apply it before go
ing to bed and all would be over in the
morning. But the next morning nv
hand was all swollen up and poulticed
it. When the doctor came to his Office
showed him the hand and to my sur
prise he told me that he had never ex-
perienced such a case in his practice and
said it was well / poulticed it. After
trying his different remedies the disease
increased and went up my arms and
finally to my thighs and legs generally
and finally. on my face. q The burning
was something terrible. y After I had
tried this doctor, as / thought, long
enough, went to another doctor who
had the reputation of being the best in

eczema and that it would take quite a
while to cure it. His medicine checked
the advance OF the disease but no fur
ther.
