WESTERN Steel TO
Invade The EAST
Irondale Corporation Will Soon
Acquire Big Holdings in
Vicinity of City

That the Western steel corporation
of Importance in and around San Fran
cisco was the statement made yester-
day by Stevens Schultz, general sales
manager of the iron works at Irondale,
who arrived in the city yesterday on a
business trip. Schultz is at the Palace.
Irondale produces the first steel made
on the Pacific coast. and it is the COM
pany's purpose to invade the eastern
territory and compete with the big
steel companies of the Atlantic border.
Recently the Western steel corpora
tion purchased iron properties on the
border line of California and Nevada.
which hold deposit of 100000 tons
of iron.
Just before his death F. H. Harri-
man was negotiating for the purchase
of this property. This ore will have to
be handled through a port about San
Francisco bay and it is the company S
purpose, Schultz said yesterday, to To-
cate here as soon as it is deemed adj
visable to ship the ore.
WIDE MARKET FOUND
Our plant at Irondale," said Schultz
tion since last May. the steel output of
the oper hearth furnaces being at this
time in the neighborhood of LOO tons
a week Our rolling mills are turning
out number of varieties of steel bars
and shapes. al of which we have al
ready marketed at points as far south
as Los Angeles, as far north as Alaska
and as far east as Spokane and Salt
Lake City. There is also good de-
ay,I fnr he Taie mr. hxvn
blast furnaces. The entire mill is run
ming at full capacity day and night and
is behind in it's orders.
sThe steel manufactured at Irondale
is the first turned out on the Pacific
coast. 1t is of superior quality by rea-
son of the fact that big fleet of
steamships, supplied by contract
with Captain Robert Dollar of San
Francisco, who is director of the
company, is constantly arriving at
Irondale with heavy cargoes of the
splendid Chinese iron ore, which is
equal in quality to any ore found the
world over. This ore mixed with a
proportion of native ore, is the basis of
the Irondaie steel output.
SELLS s2,ooo,o00 BONDS
president James A. Moore of the
corporation returned to the. coast last
week after a brief business trip to New
York, during which he negotiated the
sale of bonds to the extent of S2,000,000
and arranged to secure an additional
IS, 100000 just as fast as it is needed to
build up great steel plant at Iron
dale.
THE Western steel corporation will
at a future date acquire holdings of
Importance in or around San Francisco.
IT is also the Intention of the company
to handle the 1900. 900 tons of iron ore
Just purchased on the border state line
of .,avada and California through some
port on San Francisco bay at any time
it is deemed advisable to begin the
shipping of these ores.
THE companys assets. including ore
deposits, coal mines. timber holdings,
lime deposits. plants buildings, rail-
ways and realty, are conseryatiyely
valued at s55,000 .000."

Germans Predict Disaster
La GRAVE TO MEET
BATTLING NELSON

"One Round" Hogan overlooked the
chance of his career by declining to
meet Battling Nelson in a Is round
bout before the Broadway club this
month. Jim Griffin refused to wait
any longer for Hogan and he gave La
Grave the chance last night by signing
him to meet the Dane in Is round
encounter on October 2S.
While Hogan was a better boosted
boy and more sensational millman,
still La Grave had proved sturdy
ringman. He has been coming to the
front right along, and when the op-
portunity for getting to the front
came Sam Fitzpatrick, La Graves man
ager, seized it for his protege. Fitz-
among them being Jack Johnson, and
knows the game thoroughly.
La Grave is a tough fellow, who
has never taken the count. He is some
what on the style of Nelson, but is a
bit more clever He has had consid-
cradle experience and is plenty ripe
to take chance at the topnotchers
Many of Hogan's admirers regretted
that he declined this opportunity, as
they thought it was the chance of his
career to leap into fstic prominence.
II he went 15 rounds with Nelson his
reputation would have been established
and he would have been on the road
to make money.
La Grave is in shape, as he has been
training right along for the Hogan
bout, which was stopped. He will go
right back to Billy Shannon's resort
and continue his training. Nelson will
be at Millett's today and get down to
the grind. The Battler himself is in
pretty fair shape

CLUB WOULD TRADE
ITS JOHNSON VOTES
Gold Lace Would Give Him TO-
600 Ballots of Strong but
Unheard of Body

For the matter of one adjutant gem
eraI. two staff colonels and three trus-
tees of the Veterans home at Yount-
vile. Hiram W. Johnson might have
deprived Theodore a Bell of the formal
Endorsement of the state boio club
Chairman Lissner of the republican
state central committee hastened the
probable delivery of the bolo club in
dorsement to Bell and the democracy
by refusing to act as middleman in the
proposed trade of nine yards of gold
lace and six jobs for an estimated total
of 10000 votes.
LOST 10000 VOTES
The proposition for trade came in
the shape of formal letter from B. A.
Forsterer of Oakland, who signed him
self president of the state BoIo club.
Forsterer said there were at least TO-
600 persons in the club or eligible to
1T and that the democratic candidates
had given definite assurances to treat
the club handsomely If victory perched
on the bourbon banner.
According to Forsterers written
opinion the members and "eligibles"
were registered as republicans, but
they had been so favorabIy impressed
with the definite assurances" received
from the democrats that they would
probably vote the democratic ticket if
Johnson did not promise the mthe adju-
tant general, two aides on his military
staff and three members of the veter-
ans home board.
Forsterer informed Lissner that if an
interview with Johnson could not be
arranged a promise conveyed through
Lissner would help some.
IS UNKNOWN QUANTITY
In view of the fact that the bolo
club was probably unknown to Lissner
and the world generally, Forsterer ex-
planned that it was composed of veter-
ans of the Spanish-American war and
the Philippine insurrection, bound by
oath to vote as directed by the board
of trustees.
Lissner has assured Forsterer that he
has the greatest respect for the vet
Grams of the Spanish-American war and
no less respect for the veterans of the
civil war, but that he will not be
party to a deal for the purchase of real
or ina ginary votes by patronage.
The Bolo club made an appearance on
paper in the last campaign with an
announcement of its oathbound pur-
poses The general impression among
those who have heard of the club is
that the 'eligibles" greatly exceed the
oathbound membership

how they came to select the place ex-
cept through probably passing the fat
and seeing the sign. We had no in
formation about them before they
moved in, and I only spoke to the
woman who rented the place twice"
Nothing was known of the tenants at
the agents Office because the house was
rented directly from the owner, the oc-
cupants having no business relations
with Won Rheims Office. Other than
the record of the rental, there is moth
ing to show the presence of the Cap
land or Lawson couples.- The building
contains four flats and is located in the
center of the block.
COULD IDENTIFY ONE MAN
In speaking of the movements of the
wagon load of dynamite Mrs. Boden
said when seen by the detectives yes
terday;
81 was not at home when the man
supposed to be 'Capp' called at the
house, but the neighbors told me of his
presence. Our lower fiat has been empty
fof some time. and ! believe the visit
was made with an idea of engaging it.
However, / remember distinctly watch
ing the light wagon come up Lane
street from Eighteenth and turn up
Nineteenth avenue and stop at the
O'Brien cottage. I watched the two men
unload the boxes and carefully carry
them into the house. After locking the
door they drove away along aRilroad
avenue toward the city. Their rig was
a light spring wagon drawn by bay
horse, believe. The wagon would be
easy to identify. When the men called
at my house they carried satchels or
suit cases. / think ! could identify the
dark man who sat on the seat with the
driver. He was not very tall and ap-
peared to be a foreigner

April 1909, (the time specified in
the act when this provision was
to take effect when presented for

islature would have authority TO
change the status of stock issued
prior to the passage of the act, or
to penalize the action of the Off
GERS of any mining corporation for
an offense committed prior to the
enactment of the law, we need not
determine. AS we construe the act
in question it was never intended
to apply to stock issued prior to
its passage.
We believe it was the intention
of the legislature, as we now con-
strue the law, to mean that no
stock issued prior to the time spe-
fed in the act for the enforcement
of these provisions, when present
ed to the officers of the company
for transfer need be stamped, but
may be issued the same as it was
prior to the time specified for the
enforcement of the law In question;
but any mining stock issued, sold
or transferred subsequent to time
of the enforcement of the provi-
sions of this act in question, such
stock must be stamped in accord
ance with the provisions of the
act, as either promotion stock
or treasury stock az the stock
may be.

fact that these certificates of stool
were issued prior to the date o
enforcement of the law in question
is denied. The writ will issue
however, to compel the respondent
to stamp the certificates of stock
presented for stamping, issued sub
sequent to the time of the en-
forcement of the provisions OF tn

OPINION OF THE
SUPREME COURT ON
wild CAT" LAW
Certificates Issued Prior to Enactment
of the Measure Will Not Have to be
Stamped.

The object of the law is a good
one, intending as it does, to pro-
tect mining investors. who desire
to purchase mining stock. and to
apprise them of the character of
stock they are purchasing, and to
prevent deceitful mining promoters
and mining companies from foister-
ing promotion stock upon innocent
investors under the pretext that the
money derived will be used for ac-
tual development of the property.
Treasury stock" is generally UNI
derstood to mean in this mining
country, and the legislature intend
ed to mean when it referred 20
treasury stock" in said act, such
stock as is set aside for the actual
development of the property. In
other words treasury stock, to
the investors in mining stock,
means. and would indicate. that the
| proceeds from the sale of the
/
mining stock so purchased will be
used in the actual development of
the mining ground of the mining
company selling the stock. Pro-
motion stock is such stock as is
issued to those who originally own
| the mining ground or valuable
rights connected Herewith, in con-
sideration of their deciding the same
to the mining company when the
company is incorporated: or it may
mean that such stock as is issued
to promoters or those in some way
interested in the company, for in
cooperating the company, or fol
services rendered in launching OF
promoting the welfare of the com
: pany such as advancing the fees
, for Incorporating, attorneys fees
surveying, advertising, etc. We d.
not wish to be understood as con
, veying the impression that pro
, motion stock may not be legiti
, mately earned and rightfully is
sued, not that when rightfull
earned and issued to those who ar
!, legitimately entitled to the same
, that such stock is not of as muc
9 value as any other share of stoc
q issued for other purposes, unless TO
. some special reason it may be so de
clared by the owners thereof, 0
made so specially by the direct
ors of the mining company at tn
time of it's issuance.
The evident intent of the legis
lature. in the enactment of the la
under discussion, was to have a
stock which is to be issued for Dc
velopment purposes to be marke
as treasury stock and such stOc
as otherwise issued to the owner
or promoters of mining companie
and the proceeds of which are M
to be used for the purpose of a.
tually developing the property to |
stamped promotion stock

1t is not at al unlikely that General

date and that his successor may be
