CALIFORNIA EXHIBIT AT
SEATTLE is ADMIRABLE
Products of the State Make In-
comparable Showing

That the California exhibit at the
exposition in Seattle far outshone any
thing else on the grounds was the
declaration made by W. W. Dickinson
at the regular weekly luncheon of the
reception committee of the California
Promotion committee yesterday.
Il am new resident of San Fran
CISCO" said Dickinson. "A few weeks
ago while passing through the exposi-
ton grounds in Seattle was greatly
struck by the wonderful exhibit this
state had there. Later, when I came
to California. observed that the every
day resources of the state were fully as
wonderful and admirable as the speci-
mems on exhibit in Seattle"
The luncheon was planned originally
for a discussion between the repre-
sentatives of the eastern railroads and
the members of the reception COM
mittee, but the plan fell through at
the last moment as the railroadmen, al
most without exception. had no sugges-
ton to offer In regard to doing any
thing for the state which had not al
the California Promotion committee.
It was decided, however, that the east
ern trains should be pIentifully sup
piled with pamphlets telling of the re-
sources of California.
Dr. EzeQuiel Chaves, under secretary
of public instruction of Mexico, made a
brief address in which he asked that
more Americans visit Mexico, saving
that they would be warmly welcomed
by his countrymen. Among the guests
at the luncheon was Frank Miller of
Riverside, Cal.

JURIST EXPOUNDS
HIS VIEWS ON ART
Judge Deasy Divides Copies OF
Artists Masterpieces Into
Two Classes

A Daniel has come to judgment, and
artists, art critics and dealers in works
of art must sit up and take notice, for
Judge Daniel c. Deasy has expounded
his views on what is art, or, rather,
what is Questionable in art, in render
ing his decision in the case of Theo-
dore Cranz, art dealer. 1852 Mission
street. charged with exhibiting indecent
pictures which were claimed TO be
copies of masterpieces
IN TWO CLASSES
The Judge said he would divide the
seven pictures into two classes. The
first class would comprise the pictures,
Cupid Disarmed." by Munier; Even
ing" by Magnussen; Love and Life,
by Watts. and Judgment of Paris, by
Solomon. which were clearly the en-
bodiment of ideas and were works of
art
The second class comprised the other
three pictures, representing bathing
scenes which. in his mind, did not
represent an artistic ideal. The most
objectionable was to his mind the two
nude bathers in the painting by Bello-
vine The whole idea of these bathing
scenes was more calculated to do harm
than good, and altnOuSn lley COulu HOL
be designated as obscene. they were
to his mind indecent. He saw no OBJ
lection to the others if they We're kept
in an art gallery, or sheltered nook,
and not for free public public exhibit
tion in a show window.
In his opinion the scene by Bello-
vine and the German bathing scene
by Possart could be clearly construed
as a violation of the statute, but as
the statute said they must be lewdly
exhibited he did not mean to say that
the defendant was guilty OF that: and,
therefore. he would only impose NOM
inal sentence. He would again say
that these two pictures were detri-
mental to public morals when viewed
by immature minds.
JUDGMENT SUSPENDED
Attorney Van Wyck suggested that.
as the court was satisfied the pictures
were not exhibited 'aewdly." the de-
PENDANT be not convicted on his promise
not to expose these pictures for general
public view.
The judge replied that he was salts
fed the pictures were not exhibited
from improper motives, and he would,
therefore, suspend judgment and put
the case on the reserve calendar for
three months, when it would be dis
missed if the defendant RETAINED from
exhibiting the Objectionable pictures to
the general view of the public.

MILLIONAIRE MUST
PAY OR GO TO JAIL
Henry Miller and His Associates
Adiudged in Contempt by
Judge Seawell

Henry Miller, the Sc year old null
timillionaire who owns more than
half the broad acres and cattle CON
shutting the assets of Miller 81 Lux
was adjudged guilty of contempt by
Judge Seawell yesterday and ordered
! imprisoned until the s22,so2 dividend
due Mrs. Melissa A. Potter shall have
been paid. His fellow directors, J.
lie, Roy Nickel, Edward F. Allen
Louis +. MonteagIe and Gustav
Gutsch, were also found in contempt
Although the court order states spe-
officially that Miller and his associates
must be imprisoned if they continue to
withhold Mrs Potter's dividends, there
is no likelihood they will be confined
in a cell
TIME GIVEN FOR APPEAL
Execution of the order was stayed
10 days by Judge Seawell, and in the
meanwhile Miller and the other direc-
tors will apply to the supreme court
for a writ of review. If that court
confirms Judge Seawell then they will
have no alternative but to pay or go
to Jail They will pay.
The decision marks an important
victory for Mrs. Potter and her son.

fight TO keep the control of the vast
properties /of the corporation under
the laws of this state. The Miller
faction allowed the license of the Cali
fornia corporation to lapse and formed

Miller and his associates have refused
to pay Mrs. Potter and her son their
dividends
COMPROMISE Is REJECTED
There is now little over $50 900
due to the Potters. representing divi-
bends of the last two years. Miller has
offered to let them have this money
on condition that they will at the same
time accept stock in the Nevada cor
poration and surrender their stock in
the California corporation. AS they re-
ject this condition they have been kept
out of the enjoyment of their $4,000.
Henry Miller, who was one of the
founders of the corporation, is un-
derStood to be worth $40, 000, 600.
notwithstanding his great age he con-
ducts his fight with the daughter and
grandson of his dead partner with the
spirit and bitterness of a man of less
than half his years.
MILLER SCORES ONE POINT
In the suit of Jesse Sheldon Lux
Potter over property held in trust for
the young man, Miller and his fellow
directors won point yesterday, Judge
Seawelf sustaining their demurrer to
Potters complaint. The Judge held
that Potter could not complain of the
distribution of dividends among
other stock holders of the California
corporation, in view of the fact that
Potter contends that the corporation
is still in existence. Slye & kits

amended complaint.
