DEMAND RESTORATION
OF BORATE COMPANY
STOCKHOLDERS FILE SUIT IN
SUPERIOR COURT
Claim Is Made That Incorporation
Articles Have Been Violated and
Management Has Been
Extravagant

Suit to restore the Palms Borate COM
pany, which was sold to the Borax
Properties, limited, a British corpora
tion, two years ago, to it's original
status and to prevent the new owners
from levying an assessment to increase
the capital stock of the concern, was
filed in the superior court yesterday by
G. w. TONNES and S. X. Good, stock
holders of the first named corporation
against the foreign company, w. b;
Wainwright, managing director, and
F. C. Land, agent.
The Borate company was organized
in January 1903, one provision OF its
articles being that its property must
not be sold to another corporation. rms
provision according to the plalntitfs,
was changed by resolution adopted az
a meeting of directors in room 634
Mason building, July 29. 1907, at which
many of the stockholders were not rep
resented, and two weeks later the com
pany's properties were transferred to
the Borax Properties, limited.
TONNES and Good claim the manage

been reckless and extravagant, that

POWDER AND CIGAR
STUMP MAKE TROUBLE
ZIEGLER BURNED
AT POLICE STATION
Was Dsposino of Old Evidence
When Officer McCann Throws
Spark That Starts
Blaze

Detective Thomas H. Ziegler was
burned painfully yesterday at the CEN
trail police station while disposing of a
quantity of explosive material he had
obtained as evidence in a supposed In
cendiary fire. He suffered burns on
the left hand and his mustache and
hair were singed.
Some time ago Ziegler was detailed
to investigate fire of supposedly in
cendiary origin. He obtained a guam
tity of powder of an inflammable char
acter AS the case was disposed of
and there being no further need of the
stuff, Zlegler decided to clean out his
locker and dispose of unnecessary rub
bish
When he unwrapped the powder he
showed it to Detective Ben McCann
and remarked that there was no fur
ther need of the stuff for evidence and
asked McCann what was the best
thing to do with it.
Throw it into the spittoon," replied
Mccain. "There is not much OF 1t ana
it can be easily. thrown out"
Ziegler dumped the powder into the
cuspidor, and then turned to eXpec-
torate. AS he did so McCann mad
vertently dropped a lighted cigar
stump into the receptacle. In an in
stant there was a flash and the flames
shot up into Zieglers face. He went
to the receiving hospital, where the po-
lice surgeons dressed his burns.
"I'll be more careful in the future,
said Ziegler as he stroked his singed
muStache.

MISSIONARY SPEAKS ON
CONDITIONS IN MEXICO
Rev. D. r. Watkins outlines Protestant
Work in the Republic Before
Federation Club

The Protestant missionary work OF
Mexico was Interestingly described py
Missionary D. F. Watkins yesterday at
the noon luncheon of the Federation
club.
Rev. Mr.. Watkins spoke of his ex-
periences during his missionary work
in Mexico for thirty-seven years. He
described the early conditions of mis-
sionary work in the republic as being
very hazardous for the missionaries,
found fnroads in the religious faith of
the natives, but it was more than
twenty years before the work resulted
in a thoroughly organized Protestant
church. Since the beginning there nave
been sixty churches organized and self
supporting.
The speaker spoke in the highest
terms of the natives of the sister re-
public giving them the credit of non
est adhesion to their religious faith.

FUR STORE LOOTED
BY BOLD BURGLARS
SKINS VALUED AT $4,000 ARE
TAKEN BY THIEVES
establishment of A. E. colburn at 744
South Broadway Entered Some
time Early Yesterday
Morning

Furs valued at $4,000 were stolen from
the establishment of A. D.. Colburn at
744 South Broadway between O'Clock
Tuesday night and daylight yesterday
morning. Two rear doors were forced
open and the goods were e>removed In
leisurely manner and carried away.
Despite the fact that the premises are
watched by the Merchants Fire Dis
patch service, the robbery was not de-
tected until 1880 o'clock yesterday
morning.
Yesterday morning when the store
was opened the clerks noticed the bare
appearance of the show cases and dis
play racks. An investigation followed,
which resulted in the finding of the
rear doors wide open and "A number OF
footprints leading into the alley.
An examination of the doors dis
closed the fact that the burglars first
tried to bore holes through the doors
and effect an entrance.N Finding they
were unable to gain entrance by this
method, the burglars obtained heavy
crow bar and pried open the DOORS
breaking two locks and two heavy
bars.
An examination of the stock revealed
the fact that the most costly furs had
been removed. They recently had
been made up for the fall trade and
were of ermine. mink and chinchilla
furs.
All of the missing goods could be
easily packed in three suit cases, and
it is probable the burglars did not use
a wagon to carry away the loot.
Colburn formerly conducted store
at Twelfth and Main streets, where
three years ago the place was robbed
of furs valued at $1,000 In that case
the burglar was captured and sem
fenced to a term in the penitentiary.
So far there is no clew to the Identity
of the burglars who robbed the store
yesterday morning.

NEW YORK VALLEY MAY BE
NEW SITE FOR OCCIDENTAL
Land at Junction with Eagle Rock
Probably viii Be the
Choice

That the new site of Occidental col
lege will be on the land at the Junction
of Eagle Rock and New York valleys
and on the so-called foothill boulevard
from Pasadena to the sea seems as
sured.
Persons interested in the boulevard
movement are thought to be connected
with the movement to have the college
accept the proffered site, as it is
though it will mean boom for the real
estate in that section if the college au-
thorities should decide to accept the
offer.
Although the regular meeting Of the
college authorities will not be held un-
til the first part of october, it is
thought that a meeting prior to this
date will be held so that the decision
of the board as to the new location
can be made at the opening of the
college, September Is.

son. The further fact that he believes
Corbett could train back into condition
to make a good showing with Johnson,
despite that Corbett is nine years older
than Jeff, also indicates that Jeff feels
into condition that would enable him
to carry out the plans for world tour
with success and added glory and yet
not hurt his prestige as the unbeaten
champion of champions. He also fig
ureS that if he should make this world
tour and end up with a decisive victory
over Johnson his prestige as a retired
unbeaten champion afterward would
be far greater than now, and his BUSH
ness would profit immensely thereby.
McCarey is game enough to go
through with his contract if Jeff ac-
cepts, and he is justified in making the
offer, as sportsmen from every quar-
ter of the globe would come to Los
Angeles to witness the fight. McCarey
is figuring upon staging the battle out
side the city limits, of course, owing to
the ten-round no-decision ordinance IN
effect inside the limits, but he could
not stage the scrap in the Maud juno
ton pavilion, as it would not accommo-
date the crowds, and a new pavilion
would be a necessity. McCarey holds
that it is a patriotic duty of Jeff to
fight in America if he returns to the
ring, but Jeff does not see it that way.
If he returns to the ring it will be sole
ly because the financial inducements
are too great for human resistance and
it begins to look like this would prove
up as true in very short time.
