COMMISSIONERS
 PROBE TEARING
 0UT OF TRACKS
Street Railway Manager Is Given Until Friday to Tell What Company Plans
 to Do On Grand Avenue

In special session yesterday after noon the city. commission listened to an explanation by Manager s. H. Mitchell of the Phoenix Railway com pany of the reason the company is now engaged in tearing up portions of the Grand avenue line. particularly be- tween Five Points and Polk street. It had been represented to the commits sion that the tearing up of the track was the beginning of the abandonment Of the entire Grand. avenue line.
 According to Manage Mitchell the question of the further operation or ultimate abandonment of the Grand avenue line has not yet been deter mined by the company. The work that is being done at this time is somewhat of an investigation of the actual condition of the track and of the material of which it was originally constructed. The company is anxious to reconstruct the track provided the material now in it can be re- employed
 Unless this material is found to be suitable for reconstruction Manager Mitchell declared it would be practi- cally impossible for the company to resume operation of the line; first be- cause material is not available; and second because the company has not the necessary money with which tC carry out the work. In addition there is decided shortage of track labor according to MT. Mitchell.
 Mir. Mitchell assured the commission that if any way is found to reconstruct the track, the company is willing and ready to adopt that way He said. too that he would keep the commission fully informed as to the decision of the company.
 Commissioner MacBean finally moved that MT. Mitchell be given un. til Friday afternoon at o'clock to re. port to the commission what he car actually do in the situation Adjourn. ment was taken with the understand. ing that the commission will meet ir special session Friday afternoon to re- ceive report from Manager Mitchell

STOCKHOLDERS LIABLE T0 PAR

Hundred and Fifty Holders of Shares In Defunct Company Sued Upon New
 Ruling of Federal Court

A stockholders liability case. the second in the history of the federal court of this jurisdiction. and one in- volving $140,O00 has been filed in the United States court by Attorney R. & Fisher for W. II. A. Sherman, a judg- nent creditor of the Baltimore oil com pany, defunct corporation of Califor- mia, against the corporation and 150 stockholders residing in this s.ate The judgment was obtained in California.
 The circuit court of appeals of Cali fornia has just affirmed a judgment in q similar case on the claim of a trustee in bankruptcy against the stock holders of corporation Attorney J. C. Forrest, attorney for the trustee has just been apprised by the court of ap- peals of the affirmation.
 It is probable that many other suits of a similar character will follow by creditors of corporations which have failed and whose stockholders believed themselves to be safe because their stock was non -assessable. The opin- lon of the court of appeals is that while the stock is non -assessable for the purposes of the corporation it is liable for the debts of the corporation in the amount of the par value of the stock.
 One of the defendants in the Balti- more Oil company case is l.. M. Over lock a broker of Douglas and Bisbee. inc holder of record of 5000 shares of the stock of the par value of $S,00O.

Julian Eltinqe Scores at Lamara

When a man becomes so far ad- vanced in the art of disguise and so exceedingly accomplished as mas querader as to cause a clever crook to divulge to him secrets which lead to his undoing, thinking that in doing so he is confiding in charming woman, in whom he sees a valuable accom- plice. it must be admitted that, in the language of the street, it is going some.' This. is exactly what happens in "The Clever Mrs. Carfax,' in which the world famous feminine impersona- tor. Julian Eltinge is at present ap bearing at the Lamara.
 The story which is built of good wholesome humor is brimful of laughs and all day yesterday was greeted by crowds who came to welcome this celebrity in his second picture venture It combines an element of mystery, a rattling good detective story, and a most unusual love theme, with a eli max that is a riot. During the action Eltinge displays some gorgeous gowns which are thoroughly in keeping with

 Tt is remarkable what can be done out of seemingly useless small bits, said Mrs. Chalmers yesterday as she called particular attention to the odds and ends that were being utilized by clever workers into underSarmentS and top clothes for the little folk.
 In another room, tables were laden with clothing for men and women that was in such good condition that It was to be forwarded without alter ation. There were suits and coats and the materials were both woollen and light weight.
 We will be glad to accept any spare garments, for winter or summer use, Mrs. Chalmers stated as she regretted that but a short time remained TOT the amount she wished to accomplish in providing for the refugees.
 She has an able corps of assistants and in Mrs. John A. Miller, who has charge of the sewing, Mrs. Chalmers has an able lieutenant" Mrs. Miller has had experience in work Of the kind, for a number of years belnS active in the charity work in Oakland. She was prominently identified with the West Oakland Home and her d. rection in the local undertaking IS invaluable, says Mrs. Chalmers.
 Among the well known matrons who are assisting in the sewing room are Mrs. Richard E. Sloan, Mrs. James H. McClintock, Mrs. w. c. Foster, Mrs. c. c. Hutchinson.

This performance will be given by the entire company of 23 people including the augmented jazz orchestra, which made an instant hit with the Phoenix theatergoers.

 Eunice Gilman, the popular prima donna has tried out many new num- bers which are catching and with her winsome personality will give the pat rons a real treat. Lew Dunbar, the favorite comedian, has been working up some new jokes and stories and is ready to show the Phoenix folks that their money will be well spent by com ing to this performance.
 The entire proceeds are to be divided among the players and each and every one is going to do his or her best and justly earn their share.
 All told, "The Time, the Place and the Girl" at the Columbia tonight should be a play worth seeing.
 "The Wife He Bought" at Hip
 Larry Evans wrote the story "One Clear Call'' for Hearsts magazine some months ago and Bluebird people put | it into a picture with the charming young screen star, Carmel Myers, who made a name for herself in her first picture, My Unmarried Wife," in the leading role.
 This one is called "The Wife He Bought" and reveals a young fellow who receives from his father a life mission and to carry it out he has to 1 tear from his heart the image of the one and only girl he has ever loved. ! When he has completed his appointed | task and the other man is at his feet begging for financial mercy he takes his revenge by making the daughter marry him. Then follows the most startling story ever done by the Blue bird people for this man takes this beautiful Wife He Bought to a waste of a country and makes her life with out pleasure as his mate, without a spark of love.

Thanking his lucky stars that he was arrested as stacker, George Barrows not only sue ceeded in finding a cousin he had been tracing for the past four years, but in entering the service after being rejected. He had the additional satisfaction of being the means of getting two old time friends in touch with one another.
 Barrows registered at Superior and filled out his questionnaires in Bouse, not asking for exemp tion. Previous to this he had at various times attempted to enlist in the marines but had been turned down. He heard nothing more after filling out his papers until few days ago when he was taken into custody at Bouse by Will De Spain.
 It was not difficult task to straighten out matters but before this was accomplished, Barrows was thrown into jail where he saw Harry De Winton, deputy sheriff for the first time.
 "You," he called to the passing officer who turned quickly and recognized in the prisoner, a fav- orite young cousin.
 Barrows said he had been in the west for four years and had searched everywhere for his rel ative, not knowing that De Win ton had dropped the name of his adopted mother, Packwood. by which he was known for 30 years, and had taken back his town name, De Winton.
 In discussing his misadventures with De Winton, Barrows made mention of De Spain and it de- veIoped that De Winton had known the srresting officer since '71.
 Barrows is guest at the De Wnton home and will leave this evening for Camp Riley.

Unable to Hold Back Allies.
(By Fred S. Ferguson.)

With the American Armies in
France, July "a Despite orders to
hold to the last the Crown Princes
rear guards are being forced to give
away before the allied attacks along
practically the whole battle front.
Prisoners declared that one unit of
the rear guards were ordered to re-
main at their post and hold off the
Americans to the last but before the
violence of the American assaults they
were either moved down and COM
pletely wiped out or taken prisoners.
Allies Taking All Precautions.
The advance of the American Fran
co officers is proceeding cautiously at
all the points owing to the great mass
essof the German forces and the heavy
re-enforcements with their increasing
resistance.
On some of the battle sectors the
battle occasionally loses all its re-
semblance of rear guard action and
appears as though the Germans in
tended TO make permanent stand.
Bitter Fight For Highway.
The bitter fighting is proceeding
north of Jaulgonne where the Ameri-
can forces are enlarging their bridge
heads.
The American forces are pressing
northward along the Main highway
from Chateau Thierry to Fere en- Ter
denois in the region Of Epieds which
is four miles northwest of Chateau
Thierry and they are harrassing the
enemy's retirement towards Fere en-
Terdenois which is one of the prin-
ciple communication centers.

Paris, July 24.-Noon.-The German
Crown Prince has suddenly changed
his plans for a stragetical retirement
in the Scissors Rheims salient, and
has determined to fight it out there.
This decision, indicated by the stiff
fleming enemy resistance and the in
creasing re-enforcements, was borne
out by German prisoners today who
declared that the withdrawal orders
had been countermanded.
They could offer no explanation to
the order but the military experts
here believe that the Germans fear
the internal effect of the huge retire
ment and have forced a change in
their plans.
Drawing In Re-enforcements.
The Crown Prince continues to
throw new divisions into the pocket
and these troops are being drawn
from as far north as the main British
front.
