RIVAL FIRMS CARRY
WAR TO SUPERVISORS
Western Refining Company Is
: Accused of Neglecting Fire

A vigorous protest against granting
the Western felt and refining company
an engine and boiler permit was made
yesterday to the board of supervisors
by the Whittier Coburn company. The
latter charged that the Western com
pany had just a few weeks ago burned
down part of its own refinery, a stor-
age plant of the protestant and sew
eral thousand dollars worth of ad-
jacent property by fire in Hooper
street between Seventh and Eighth.
The Whittier -Coburn company fur
ther charged that the fire showed that
the applicant had not used diligence
in preventing the loss that followed
and that its business of boiling pc
troleum products was essentially one
with refining the crude article, pro-
hibited within the city limits save in
a specified section.
The fire committee will give hear
ing to both parties.

COURT IS PROBING
OLD DIVORCE CASE
Persons Interested in Guggen-
helm Marital Litigation May
Get Into Trouble
Special Dispatch 10 The Call

CHICAGO, Oct. 21.-Some Of the per-
of Mrs. Grace B. Guggenheim against
William Guggenhefm of smelter fame
may become involved in criminal pro-
ceedings as the result of a ruling made
by Judge Honore today.
Attorneys for both sides had been
spiracy back and forth, and it was
stated that the woman had been threat
ened with death If she persisted in her
attempt to have the divorce annulled.
whole matter to a close by this ruling
II will continue this motion in abey-
ance for 80 days, SO that counsel for
Mrs. Guggenheim may file bill of re-
view and Mr.. Guggenheim may answer,
after which 1 will decide what is neces-
sary to uphold the dignity of the court
SEEKS RESPONSIBLE PARTY
The court was interested in knowing
who was responsible for Mrs. Guggen-
helm coming here from New York in
1901 and procuring her decree on the
ground that she was a resident of Cook
county.
When the court first suggested the
bill of review Samuel Untermeyer, Gug-
genheim's New York lawyer, declared
he would advise his client to remain in
France, where he now is sojourning
with Mrs. Aimee Steinberger Guggen-
helm, whom he married subsequent to
the divorce mentioned. Mr.. Inter
meyer changed his mind later and
promised the court he would enter his
personal appearance for Guggenheim.
BOTH CLAIM VICTORY
Both sides claim the courts ruling as
a victory William M. Seabury of New
York and Alderman William E. Dover,
representing the woman, claim the bill
OF review will bring Guggenheim with
in the Cook county courts jurisdiction
and place him in position where he
will be compelled to explain his part in
the alleged fraudulent divorce, while
Untermeyer and S. c. Levinson, repre-
senting Guggenheim, assert they will
show that the bill can not hold, because
five years have elapsed since the decree
was entered.

HAVE
COMMISSION
UNLESS SUBURBS ARE ANNEXED
North Yakima Must be City of First
Glass Before State Law
Applicable.

That North Yakima can not adopt
the commission form of government
generally acknowledged to be far su
perior to old methods of council con-
troll until its suburbs have been an
nexed and the municipality has no
come city of the first class, is the
statement of l.. o. Meigs, speaker nf
the last house of representatives. Ac-
cordlng to the attorney, the law that
provides for the commission plan of
municipal control gives it only to the
cities of the one class. The law does
not apply to city of either the second
or third class
North Yakima is now a city of the
third class, the next census will place
1T as city of the second class. How
ever, a rapid advancement to position
as first class city is possible by the
annexation of the settled territory
surrounding the city.
The territory necessary to make this
advancement includes Modern Addi-
ton. Leamingsburg, Capitol Hill.
Bonnie Brae, Olson's and Victoria ad-
ditions, Boulevard addition, Rainier
and Fairview additions. If the boun-
daries were extended to include thase
sections, possibly a little further, there
would be no doubt of North Yakima =
position in the state.
Many laws that are of benefit to
municipalities apply only to first class
cities, and the step from third class
to first class would be one of the
greatest advancements, according to
those who have made a study of the
conditions and laws applicable to
cities of the various classes.

FILE PETITION FOR
SPECIAL ELECTION
Civic Federation Completes Canvass
and Has Over 700 Names on its
Lists.

Petitions for a special election on
the anti-saloon question that have
been in circulation for the past week
will be filed today with City Clerk
BROKER, and the papers will contain
over 700 names. Members of the
Civic Federation made this statement
on Monday, although the actual num-
Der of signers was not divulged.
The men who circulated the petition
compiled figures regarding the cam
vass and stated that 81 per cent of
those approached were willing and
did sign the petitions. The petitions,
however, were not circulated in dis
tricts where the wet" side was known
to have special strength.
Only 527 names are necessary TO
call the special election on the ques-
ton, but the Civic Federation decided
to have plenty of signatures on the
papers in order that no question could
be raised as to the legality of the call
when issued.
The list contains approximately 200
more names than are absolutely es-
sential The special election sought
will be held on December 10, 1909, be-
ing independent of all 1ther NUM-
cipal campaigns.
