MONTANA RANCHER
IS SUED BY WIFI [
Comes to Effect Reconcilia-
ton and Is Served With
Papers in Court Action


James A. Metcalf, a wealthy Mon
tana rancher, staying at the Hotel
Stewart after journey across the
continent from Ohio to affect recon-
ciliation with his wife. Mrs. Carrie
Ethlyn Metcalf, yesterday became de-
fendant in suit for accounting
brought by her in the superior court.
Mrs Metca1fs complaint sets forth
that both before and after marriage
she loaned her husband money, for
which he has made no accounting.
Mrs. Metcalf arrived in San Fran
cisco in January, 1913, after leaving
her husband. He obtained knowledge
of her whereabouts and in July came
here to persuade her to go back home.
Instead, his wife presented the suit for
accounting. Her attorneys stated.
however. that there was a. possibility
of reconciliation.
Mrs. Metcalf says she was married
in 1898 in Adrian, Mich. She says she
inherited considerable property and
that before and after marriage she
loaned her husband sums varying from
$500 to $4,000, with a total of approx
mately $4,000.
The wife also alleges that Metcalf
bought ranches in Carbon, Mont, Twin
Falls and Glendive, Idaho, that he has
had an income and that she has not
shared in the proceeds of the invest

SUIT To COLLECT
SPRECKELS' 1915
FAIR DONATION
Exposition Company Ac-
cepts the Challenge of
Banker to Force Pay
ment on Promise

The Panama-Pacif1c Exposition COM
pany yesterday accepted the challenge
recently made by Rudolph Spreckels
sue him for the balance of 1.-The money
due on his subscription to exposition
stock by fling an action In the superior
court for the recovery of $17.50o with
interest at per cent to cover the
amount of the bankers subscription to
date. The point of controversy, accord
ing to the complaint, is that Mr..
Spreckels demanded that stock be is
sued in his name to cover the amount
Of the partial payment made by him,
while the directorate insists that the
stock will be issued when Mr.. SuFeck-
els entire subscription of $4,000 has
been taken up.
The exchange of letters between the
exposition company and Mr.. Spreckels,
referred to by the. complaint as ''volu-
minous." is reminiscent of the recent
My dear Rudolph and MY dear jim
letters that passed between Mr.. Spreck-
els and Mayor Rolph.
The first letter of Mr.. Spreckels' was
written on September 26. 1910, when he
told the finance committee of the ex-
position directorate that he had no
intention of making payments until
the conditions of his subscription were
complied with.
The plaintiff states that Mr.. Spreck-
els, on March 8, 1911, paid $4,000 on
account and that this was a waiver by
him of any conditions attached to the
stock subscription.
The complaint was filed by Attorneys
Curtis II. Lindley and f. S. Britain and
verified by President Moore.
Mr.. Spreckels is already on record as
having said that he believed the fair
directors were misma naging the af-
fairs of the exposition and that the
board is taking a matter of private
business the expenditure of vast sums
held as public trust. He declared
also that the method by which the
board OF directors of the exposition
transacts business should be public
property. and stated his belief that a
suit would show whether he had mis-
judged the exposition officers
