CONTEST DEVELOPS
OVER GOFF ESTATE
Will and CodiciI Declared to Be
Worthless by Contestants
ESPECIAL Dispatch 10 The Call

4
STOCKTON, Aug pa warm con-
test is quite probable in the matter of
the estate of the late Thomas ]. Goff,
opponents to the alleged will of the
decedent this morning having filed pa
pers declaring the will and codicil
worthless and alleging that neither
was written nor even signed by the
deceased.
The estate is valued at between
$4,000 and $4,000. 'Goff died May 4 last.
The first court procedure was a petit
tion on the part of Public Administra-
tor George r. Thompson. praying that
he be granted letters of administra-
ton.
Immediately thereafter petition was
filed by the attorneys of Frank E.
Brooks and Mary l.. Englander, brother
and sister of Goffs deceased wife, op-
posing the admitting of the estate to
probate. Judge Smith ruled in favor of
the brother and sister.
About this time a mysterious will
was found under the carpet at the house
where Golf lived. 1t left the entire
estate to a sister of the deceased, Mrs.
E. n. Nsley, who resides in the east.
This changed the aspect of the entire
matter, a still greater surprise having
been sprung when Attorney J. l.. C.
Irwin of Bakersfield filed with the will
codicil alleged to have been written
by Goff in which he named his friend,
2. NJ Nelson, administrator.
Nelson presented his claims and
asked that he be appointed admins
traitor. The matter came up this morn
ing before Judge Frank H. Smith. The
brother and sister of the decedent' s
wife presented their petition opposing
the Nelson petition. According to their
petition the will was not subscribed to
by Goff. nor was either the will or
codicil attested by two any wit
nesses subscribing their names at the
end thereof

JAPAN RENOUNCES OLD
COMMERCIAL TREATY
Protective Tariff to Be Feature
of New Agreement

VANCOUVER. Aug. 2s-Japan has
formally given Great Britain one years
notice renouncing the commercial
treaty negotiated 10 years ago. to
which Canada subsequently became a
party. The treaty will expire next
July.
The serving of formal notice is an
expectation of the intention of the
japanese government to negotiate an
entirely new arrangement in harmony
with the spirit of higher protective
tariff to go into operation in August,
1911. Notice renouncing other treat
les existing with other countries has
also been served. This announcement
was made today by G. a. Harris. Cana
dian trade commissioner to Japan. who
reached Vancouver today from Tokyo.
He said:
1T is impossible to forsee how the
new protective tariff will work out as
regards foreign countries Trade be-
tween Canada and Japan is showing a

RASH APPEARS AGAIN
Summer Eczema and Hot Weather Skin
Troubles Demand Prompt Treat
ment With PosIam.

All skin troubles which are prevalent
in hot weather-rashes, inf1ammations
so o-called summer eczema, itching
spots, hives, pimples, etc, demand the
use of poslam for their prompt eradica-
ton. Their causes are found in over
heated blood, skin irritation, digestive
disorders, etc. In some persons the eat
ing of fish or berries in certain months
always brings them on. For clearing
the complexion, red or inf1amed noses
sunburn, mosquito bites, burns, etc.
poslam should be used in preference to
aught else. surprising results being
noted after single application.
The readiness with which posIam
heals small surfaces and minor troubles
is but an indication of its rapid action
in curing eczema, letter. scabies itch
etc. on hands, limbs, scalp or any part
of the body.
A special 50cent package of poslam
is prepared for minor uses and this, as
well as the regular 81 jar, is on sale by
all druggists, particularly the Owl
Drug Co. stores.
But free sample, which will afford
convincing test may be obtained by
mail, by writing to the Emergency La

ed the United States district attorney
TO take action against the American
Hawaiian steamship NeYadan for car
rying passengers between San Fran
