UNIVERSITY CLUB
GETS HOME SITE
Option Obtained on Property
at | and Fifteenth.
PURCHASE BY CLUBS FRIENDS
They Agree 20 Hold SITE Free Until
June 1-Enthusinsm Runs High I'm
Club Rooms when Announcement
IL Made-Priee Paid Is S72,5OO.
Plans far the Building.

Tremendous cheering rang through
the rooms OF the University Club last
night when the announcement was made
that the site for the proposed new build
ing had been purchased.
Members congratulated one another that
the first tangible step toward the ma
terialization Of their cherished plans for
new home had been taken.
The option on the new site held by the
club had expired on 1st day OF this
month. Snce that time several members
and friends OF the club Joined together
and purchasd the lot at Fifteenth and I
streets. opposite Mcpherson Square, now
occupied by Kings drug store and other
buildings. The consideration was $72,5OO.
Given n Free Option.
Those who purchased the site have
given the club an option on It free until
June L If By that time the club does
not decide to take it. the lot will be dis
posed Of by the new purchasers.
Enthusiasm ran high. and every one
present pledged himself to do all in his
power TO help raise the $S5OOOO necessary
for the erection Of the new clubhouse.
Nearly one-third Of the amount has al
ready been subscribed, ana :ae fact that
the club has now an option on the site
for the building at a moderate figure will
prove a great stimulus toward swelling
the subscription fund. The money sub
scribed IS not 20 be n donation. but an
investment at per cent. The shares are
500 each. and every member of the club
Is urged to purchase at least one share,
or. II that IS impossible, to combine with
other members and take share together.
The plans of the new building. which it
IS hoped TO make one OF the architectural
features OF the city. have been drawn by
George Oakley Tottcn, member OF the
club and architect OF some OF the largest
private residences in the northwest sec
ton of the city.
After the excitement due to the an
uouncement Of the purchase Of the site
FOR the new clubhouse had subsided. Honi
William L. Scruggs. Of Atlanta, delivered
an Instructive lecture on Latin Ameri-
cans and their Interpretation of the Mon
roe doctrine"
In DIPLOMATS Service.
Mr.. Scruggs was for years in the
diplomatic service. being formerly United
States Minister 20 Venezuela and Colon
bia- He was counsel for Venezuela in the
famous boundary dispute with Great
Britain.
IN his lecture he described the develop
ment of the Monroe doctrine and de-
ciared that the germs OF this cardinal
principle Of American foreign policy
could be traced 70 Washington and John
Adams. He said the South Americans TO-
membered the doctrine only when they
were IN trouble and it served them as a
convenient shield against the aggressions
OF a European power.

URGE SUPPORT FOR
PRIVATE STEAMERS
Coast Commercial Representa-.
tives Favor Independent
Line on Pacific

Representatives of the entire COM
mercial interests of the Pacific coast
yesterday adopted a resolution urging
the government to encourage the estab
lishment of private line of steamships
on the Pacific and Atlantic, to be oper-
ated via the Panama railroad by eX
tending all possible privileges and con-
cessions. AS an alternative the traffic
men recommended the completion of the
government line by placing government
operated steamships on the Pacific SIM
liar to the line now operated on the
Atlantic.
The meeting was held in the rooms of
the traffic bureau of the merchants
exchange and although the officials
were in conference all day, only one
resolution was adopted Much time
was spent in discussing the recent de-
cision of the interstate commerce COM
mission in relation to transcontinental
rates to and out of Spokane.
The possibility of the decision affect
ing the cases now pending at Phoenix
and at Reno was gone into thoroughly,
and as result Seth Mann will leave
tonight for Phoenix to attend the hear
ings at that place which are scheduled
for Monday. From Phoenix he will
proceed to Reno to attend the hearing
there Monday. March 29. 1t is probable
that the railroads will apply to the
courts for an injunction in the Spokane
case, and until some such action is
taken the traffic associations will defer
taking steps.
Following are those who attended
yesterdays conference: w. A. Mears,
F. M. Caldwell Seattle; J. E. Belcher.

board of railroad commissioners.
H. A. Jones. traffic manager of the
Southern Pacific company, listened to
the complaints of representatives of
several packing firms Of the bay cities
in his office Thursday afternoon. The
packers complained of the increase in
rates on livestock from the stations
along the Shasta route to San Francisco
and vicinity, maintaining that the in
crease was unreasonable. Jones took
the matter under advisement and prom
ised decision within two weeks.

HANDCUFFED YOUTH
GATHERS IN WATCH
Prisoner Unable to Explain How
He Connected With Timepiece

Look, officer" said Alexander Castro,
a youth charged with burglary, to
Bailiff Al Williams of Police Judge
Deasy's court, as he held up his man
acled wrist and showed a silver watch
and black ribbon fob dangling from
the point of the handouts. Williams
was just entering the courtroom with
three prisoners manacled together, Cas-
tro being in the center.
Where did you get the watch? %
asked Williams, and Castro replied that
1T was a mystery TO him. Williams
handed the watch and fob to the prop
erty, clerk. 1t was supposed that in
forcing their way through the crowd in
the corridor Castros handcuff caught
the ribbon fob in passing.
I. Daniewitz, 465 Tenth avenue, Rich
mond district, was going home in a
Haight street car later and remarked
to friend that he had been touched
for his watch and fob in the hall of
justice. The friend told him that he
had been In the property clerks Office
and had seen policeman turn over a
watch and fob to one of the officials
Daniewitz returned to the hall of jus-
tice and recovered the watch and fob.

HARVESTER KINGS
SON INCOMPETENT
Mrs. Stanley Mccormick Seeks
Guardian for Her Hus=
band
For Some Time Unfortunate
Man Has Been Under
Care OF Specialist
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

lSPecIdl Dispatch TO The Call
SANTA BARBARA, March 1s.-That
Stanley Mccormick. son of the great
harvester king, is incompetent to man
age his affairs is the allegation made
by his wife in support of her petition
to the superior court here to have him
declared incompetent and a guardian
appointed to look after his person and
estate.
The McCormicks have lived in a
beautiful estate in the Montecito sec
ton on Riven Rock road for over a
year and their life has been extremely
quiet. Mccormick came to Santa Bar
5ara for his health and for time
seemed to be improving. For some
time, however. it was apparent that his
mind was failing and that his mental
faculties were rapidly succumbing to
disease. DR.. Hamilton. specialist in
nervous diseases, is in constant attend
ance.
Recently it became evident to Mrs.
Mccormick that some action should be
taken and the petition was accordingly
drawn and placed before the superior
court by Attorney Jarrett T. Richards.
The proceeding will come up before the
court in about two weeks for hearing.
