May 26.—At a meeting of representatives of the principal broom manufacturing company of the United States held here, action has been taken which practically insures the formation of a combination of the principal com- panies under the name of the National Broom Company. The new company will be formed on a strict basis of act- ual valuation.

Ends COMI’ROHISE EFFECTED Wife of Deceased Partner Satisfied on IHer Claim for Detailed Accounting e Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, May 26. Litigation over the affajrs of J. J. Hanifin & Co., the pioneer wholesale and retail liquor firm of this city, has | suif which Mrs. Louisa Kane, wife of the late Frank J. Kane, brought against J. J. Hanifin for an account- ing. The conflicting interests were adjusted to-day and a formal dis- missal of the litigation will be filed to- morrow in the Superior Court. The settlement with Mrs. Kane was on a liberal basis, and, according to Hanifln's counsel, thoroughly satis- factory to both sides. It concludes all of the claims which Mrs. Kane made to an interest in the business as the survivor of her husband, who was for many yvears a partner with Hanifin. Mrs. Kane's Interest was represent- ed by a bill of sale to her of her hus- band’s interest, which was made short- ly before his death. On the Hanifin side it was disputed that this gave | Mrs. Kane a right to be represented as a partner, though it was recognized that she had equitable rights in the profits and the business. As a matter of fact, negotiations with' the dead partner’s wife were in progress when the suit was suddenly and quite unexpectedly launched. Han- ifin had at no time given evigence of any desirc to make other thdn a fair and equitable settlement. His attor- ney, George W. Reed, was taken much by surprise whemaotice of the suit was given. Attorney Reed made the following statement yesterday: I cennot say what amount of money w pald to Mrs. Kane or what are the ternis compromise. All that can be said is th evérything has been adjusted in a very sati factory way and to the gratification of ik concerned, The only regret we have is that the suit was brought while negotlations were in hand.
