Blair Left Him Property

Letters of administration IN the case
of a man who died more than two
years ago. leaving no estate, were
asked yesterday in a petition filed in
the probate department of the superior
court.
The dead man was Nelson I. Blair,
sometimes known as n. T. Blair, who
died April 2, 1908. Charles Holshue
states that on May Z, 1885. Blair ac-
ouired title to q small section of a lot
in the Crescenta Canada tract and
later mortgaged it to John Gossage.
In turn, Gossage assigned his claim to
Oren Smith, who has sought, by a suit
in the courts, to foreclose against
Blair, who died more than two years
ago.
Holshue claims that the sale by
which Blair became owner of the prop
ertv was defective and he now wants
to be made administrator of the estate

TO remove the cloud from the title. SO

IRON WORKER MUST PAY
$500 FINE, SAYS COURT
Louis KarIson Suffers Penalty for
Failure to Observe Injunction

Louis Karlson, a striking iron work
er, was sentenced yesterday to pay a
fine of 5000 by Judge Monroe of the
superior court, for contempt in fail
ing to observe the injunction issued
against picketing by Judge Bordwell,
presiding judge.
The Pacific Ornamental Iron works
brought the action against the Metal
Trades council, which it blamed for
failure of it's members to observe the
restraining order
Karlson, a member of the council
was cited to appear before Judge Mon
roe to show cause why he should not
be fined for contempt of court. He
appeared and considerable argument
ensued. 1t developed that Chauncey
Howe had been roughly handled by
picketers who had interested them
selves in the affairs Of the Pacific Or
namental Iron works, but it was not
determined that Karlson was respon-
sible for that.

the rise of silver mining in Canada.
