The Supervisors’ Street Committee yesterday ordered certain street and ;sewer work on Anderson street, | Seventh avenue South and Ninth ave- nue, between H and I streets. . The committee heard the protests of property-owners against the proposed acceptance of the roadway of Harri- son street, between Twenty-fourth and | Twenty-fifth, on the ground that it is full of depressions. Action was. post- | poned so Assistant City Engineer Morser may investigate and report on the condition of the pavement. The committee laid over for one week the petition of Edward Maloney for permission to explode blasts and to operate a small rock crusher on | Seventeenth street, between Uranus jand Ashbury. Property-owners ap- peared and urged the granting of the permit, claiming that it will improve the district for building. Mrs. Dr. Merritt opposed the petition. The committee discussed the alleged violation of the law by Gray Bros. on Telegraph Hill, but took no action. i —_———— Pythian Drill at the Central.

He is at the Palace Hotel, and admitted yesterday that he will not permit a confirmation of the probate | sale of last *Fhursday if he is able to satisfy his opinion that the properties disposed of should have brought a higher figure. Another purpose of Cris. tobal's visit to San Francisco is in con nection with a fee of $15,000 demanded by George de Urioste, local Consul Gen- eral for the Argentine republic, for ser- vices alleged to have been rendered in the settlement of the Guardiola estate. When Jose Guardiola arrived here | from Guatemala fourteen years ago he made a will, in which the brother of George de Urioste, who was a great friend of Guardiola, was named as a beneficiary. Later, however, Guardiola executed another will in Spain making his wife and daughter, who is now the wife of Miguel Cristobal, his chief lega- tees. ‘When the old Spaniard died George Urioste filed the first will and applied for letters of administration, but the will was rejected by the court when it was discovered tHat a later one was in existence. It was then that George de Cristobal, suggesting to her that he ap- pear as her personal representative here in the settlement of the estate, of which she was to receive a quarter. Recalling her father’s friendship for the Uriostes, she consented, notwithstand- ing that a legal representative had been engaged to further the interests of her mother ahd herself in the probating of the will. A few weeks ago, after the will had been probated and the estate ordered sold in order to facilitate the distribution, it'is claimed that George de Urioste notified Mrs. Cristobal in Barcelona that his fee for services would be $15,000, of which $5000 was to go to Lawyer Paige for legal work. Failing to rehdily appreciate the | yalue of the services claimed to have been rendered by De Urioste, especially in view of the fact that other attor- ! neys were claiming fees for the same gervices, Miguel Cristobal, after con- ferring with his attorneys In Spain, hurriedly crossed the Atlantic and this continent to this city to look into the matter personally. When he arrived here the proverty had been sold, and he found the court preparing to confirm the sale and award the claims of the various attorneys concerned in the dis- tribution of the estate, which is valued at $738,500. While not particularly anx- | ried visit to this city, Cristobal re- luctantly admitted yesterday that he had so far failed to find adequate rea- | sons why the old friend of his father- in-law, George de Urioste, had made such a high demand for services, but he added that possibly the matter may be adjusted after he and Urioste have had a better understanding with each other. —_—————— Soma very swell wedding invitations come from Edward 8.

Papers in the divorce case of John Stobener against Delia Stobener, trans- ferred from'the courts of San Mateo | and Santa Clara counties successively, were filed in the Superior Court yes- terday. Stobener is and has been for twelve years superintendent of the Home of Peace Cemetery, near Col- ma, San Mateo County. He alleges that his wife treated him cruelly; that she has an ungovernable temper, and to annoy him she abused and insulted the patrons and visitors of the cem- etery. Once, he says, she threatened ta kill him and before his departure for Germany on a vacation trip she is said to have knelt upon the floor -and with uplifted hands called upon God to curse him wherever he might go. He avers that she trained their four children to treat him with contempt. In her answer Mrs. Stobener denies all of his charges and brings counter charges of extreme cruelty, intemper- ance and failure to provide. She wants the case tried in San Francisco because most of the witnesses on her side reside in this county. ¢ Divorces were granted yesterday by Judge Kerrigan to Madeline M. Bush from Joseph B. Bush on the ground of desertion and by Judge Seawell to Lucile L. Butchart from William E. Butchart on the same ground. Judge Graham yesterday ordered Edward S. Sproat to pay his wife, Mamie Sproat, $50 for attorney’'s fees | and $25 a month alimony pending the trial of his suit against her for di- vorce on the grounds of desertion. Judge Sioss yesterday ordered John J. Mulcahy to pay his divorced wife, ‘Marg’dre( V. Mulcahy, $35 a month alimony and to give her the custody of their 17-months’ old child. The father is to have the child on Sundays, returning it to the mother in the evening of the same day. MRS. LANE IS SENSITIVE. Mary Lane has sued her husband, David Lane, for divorce upon the ground of cruelty, the cruelty consist- ing of the facts, as charged, that in the six years théy have been married he has not taken her out with him to exceed a dozen times and hardly ever speaks to her when in the house. She says she is sensitive, refined and af- fectionate and craves her husband's affection. Judge Murasky restrained Lane from®disposing of his property ! pending the trial of the case. Complaints in divorce were filed by Saliie Parkhurst against Bdgar C. Parkhurst for desertion; Lillie Lam- erax against Walter Lamerax for neg- lect and desertion; Robert J. H. Dews- bury against Pricilla Dewsbury for de- sertion. —_———— Murine Eye Remedy Cures Eyes. Makes Weak Eyes stron E smart; soothes eye pain, t D“'o i C. and | 39 STOCKTON STREET. Telephone Main 3522.
