DECISION FOR DEFENDANT
GIVEN IN BIG SUIT

Tacoma, Feb. 3.-Judge c. H. Han
ford in the United States circuit court
handed down a decision today in the
suit Of Harriet F. Speckart against
Peopold F. Schmidt, her uncle; Hen
riette Speckart, her mother; the
Olympia Brewing company and the
Bellingham Bay Brewing company,
corporations. The court finds for
the defendants and thus ends ltiga-
tion that has attracted wide attention
since the suit was begun in Sep
tember, 1907. Judge Hanford holds
that the plaintiff is not the real liti-
giant, but is actuated in suing her
mother and uncle by the baneful in
fluence of a person exerting a mystic
rious psychological power. During
the course of the trial it was shown
that a certain DR.. Aqui, a woman,
scarcely ever left Harriet's side. The
estate is valued at over $4,000

1t was decided to pump the seep-

MAJESTIC BAR
LOSES LICENSE
BREWERY SHOWN TO BE IN
CONTROL OF SALOON
Police Commission Believes Effort
Was Made to Defeat Its Aims
and Takes Permit from
T. p. Roberts

The Majestic bar, adjoining the Ma
jestic theater, at 843 South Broadway,
was ordered closed by the police com
mission last night and it is likely to
remain closed for an indefinite period,
as no one longer holds permit to con-
duct business at this place.
This permit was held in the name of
T. P. Roberts, while S. A. Lowenstein,
who also owns the saloon adjoining
the Burbank theater, was the actual
owner of the place. But the commits
sion believed Mr.. Lowenstein had at
tempted a subterfuge in an effort to
thwart the plans of the commission
to divorce the breweries and the re-
tail saloons and his application to
have the permit issued in his own
name was denied.
T. P. Roberts, in whose name the
permit stood, is credit man for the
Maier Brewing company and he had
been cited to appear before the COM
mission and show cause why this per-
NIT should not be revoked as he had
no active part in the management of
the saloon. Mr. Roberts made no de-
fense and no objection to the revoca-
ton of this permit. When Lowen-
stein was examined he told the COM
mission he had paid the Maier Brew
ing company $4,000 for the license for
this place, although he owned the
stock and fixtures. He gave ten notes
of $1,000 each in payment and the Ii
cense continued to stand in the name
of T. P. Roberts as security for the
notes.
When the police commission began
its investigation into the brewery con-
troll of retail permits Roberts and
Lowenstein, from the testimony intro
duced, attempted to fix up a Tartner-
ship agreement in order to protect the
license. The partnership proceedings
went to the extent of a federal license
being secured in the names of Roberts
& Lowenstein and the money received
by the saloon deposited in the name
of this firm. But the actual partner
ship papers were signed only by Mr..
Lowenstein and not by Mr.. Roberts.
This the commission considered a SUBJ
terfuge to defeat it's ends and denied
Lowenstein's application that the per-
nit be made out in his own name
after revoking the permit held by Rob-
erts.

ATLANTA, Ca, Jan. 19.-After ex-
tending a vote of thanks to John D.
Rockefeller for his "munificent and hu-
manitarian" gift of one million dollars
for eradicating the hook worm disease,
a permanent organization to be known

ognize among the delegates to the con-
ference at least six cases in which the
symptoms of hook worm were visible.
