COUNTRY Club MAY
LEASE TROCADERO
New Organization Planned to
Convert Beautiful Park
Into Athletic Grounds

Trocadero. the attractive park of
19 acres at the corner of Nineteenth
avenue and Sloat boulevard, is to be-
come the home of a new country club,
provided plans now in the making do
not miscarry.
Mrs. Charles a Hawkins, whose home
is across the avenue from Trocadero,
has been largely instrumental in pro-
noting the Outdoor club, the name of
the new organization. a meeting was
to have been held at her home yester-
day afternoon for the purpose of COM
pleting the organization and discuss
ing available sites for the club. The
weather was so disa greeable, however.
that il was decided to postpone the
m Getting until next Sunday afternoon.
Negotiations are already under way
for the leasing of Trocadero, but moth
ing definite will be attempted until the
new club is fully organized. Another
site is also under consideration, but
Trocadero is looked upon with greater
favor because of the natural beauty
and the accessibility of the property.
George w Green, the owner of the
property, and his father spent many
years in converting the land which
lies in a natural gully. into beauti-
ful park. Under their care a fine col
lection Of tropical plants has been
propa gated. A small grove of euca-
lyptus trees surrounds the property and
shelters the gardens in the floor of the
gulch.
Trocadero was established as a home
and 1t became noted as one of the most
attractice villas in the vicinity of San
Francisco. In recent years, however,
IL has been conducted as a resort, but
few weeks ago the lessees closed the
place. Mrs. Hawkins then became act
i've and interested number of lovers
of outdoor life in the proposition of
forming club and securing Trocadero.
Tennis, handball and other outdoor
games could be played on the property
and arrangements could probably be
made with the 1ngleside country club
near by for the use of the links for
those members of the club who have
a fondness for golf.

Stock Market Lapses Into I'm
usual Inactivity and Prices
Become Irregular

NEW YORK, Feb. 27.-The stock
markets of last week in New York
lapsed into a state of inactivity equal
to the dull periods of midsummer and
February of last year. The movement
of prices at the same time became
sluggish and Irregular
The passing of factors lately inf1u-
entail was indicated by the indfffer-
ence shown to the public address of
the attorney general, reiterating the
policies of legal restraints on corpora
tions The Importance of this subject
is not changed in financial estimation.
1t is expected that revival of its influ-
ence will now await the decision of the
supreme court in the American to-
bacco and Standard oil cases.
The large attention paid to the news
from the winter wheat region is sig
nfficant of the direction in which the
next effective forces in the speculation
will move.
The controllers abstract of national
bank reports as of January 81, shows
credit position still extended, in spite
of the severe defation to stock market
values and liquidation of stock market
borrowings, which had occurred at that
time.
The continued shortage of foreign
demand for cotton and wheat marks the
holding of prices at an unattractive
level. The sustained volume of current
redemption of bank notes by the United
States treasury. although not fully up
to the unprecedented level of January,
is significant of redundant bank conJi-
tions and is an agency in keeping up
prices.
Labor disputes to be adjusted are
kept in mind by the Philadelphia riots
and by demands upon various railroa ds

Authorities in the iron and steel
trade express hopeful views of the de-
mand for finished products, but the

COASTWISE LAW TO
DEMAND ATTENTION
House Committee to Consider
Abrogation of Statute Be
tween Coast and Hawaii
| Special Dispatch 10 The Call


WASHINGTON. D. c., Feb. 27.-The
committee on merchant marine and
fisheries will have hearing March 10
on the bill to abrogate the coastwise
navigation law between Hawaii and
the mainland of the United States.
This bill was introduced during the
siXtieth congress, at which time only
the Toyo Kisen Kaisha line was run
ming ships between these ports. Since
then the Matson navigation company
and the Spreckels company have put on
steamships for the run between Homo
lulu and San Francisco.
1t is believed by the California dele
cation that with these additional ships
there is no reason whatever for the
abrogation of the coastwise navigation
law, and the delegation will make
every effort to prevent a favorable re-
port on the bill.

Can Maintain Camp

Representatives Hayes and Needham
appeared yesterday before Secretary
Ballinger to ask that Camp Curry be
allowed to remain in Yosemite park:
Captain Curry accompanied them.
The first objection to the camp was
that it did not have proper sewerage
facilities, but Curry has installed an
improved method of sewerage and
thereby removed the cause of the COM
plaint. 1t was also claimed that he
had inadequate facilities for the num-
Der of guests he entertained.
Secretary Ballinger said that he saw
no reason why Curry should not be al
lowed to continue his camp. He also
gave him permission to entertain 400
guests instead of 200.
1t is said that the complaint against
Currys camp originated with rival
hotel keepers.

Events In the House

Washington, Jan. 11.-Among the
significant developments of the in
surgent situation in the house is the
return to the insurgent camp of Rep
resentative Gardner of Massachusetts,
son-in-l law of Senator Lodge. Gard
ner gave out an interview early in the
session, in which he was quoted as
favoring a cessation of hostilities. He
says that he Is now In favor of a radi-
cal program of action. He said:
"As there is to be no truce, | ex-
pect to act with the insurgents on all
matters relating to the rules and man
agement of the house of representa-
uves. had hoped that things would
take different turn and there would
be no split in the party. but do not
at all blame the house insurgents for
resenting the attacks upon them"

TO OUR SUBCRIBERS.

We are planning some new fea-
lures for the Opinion for 1910.
These are to be along practical lines,
which large part of our subscrib-

when renewals are coming in and we
are glad to receive them promptly.
Now is a good time to change the
date of your paper to 1911. We
would remind those in arrears for
1909 that we will be obliged to drop
their names unless settlement is
made in the next few weeks owing
to the postal regulations. Why not
pay up arrears and one year in adj
vance to 1911.
