Repre- sentatives of the Sierra Club and own- ers of timber lands were present, as were also several members of the corps of the United States Bureau of For- estry now engaged in investigations in California under the co-operative act, whereby the State and the United | States Bureau of Forestry contributed an equal mount for the forest investi- gations made during the last two sea- sons. 5 !~ A rough draft of a bill was presented to the meeting, which was referred to a speclal committee consisting of William - Thomas, Arthur R. Briggs and T. C. Friedlander, with instruc- tions to request co-operation of a com- mittee from the Sierra Club, and to work jointly with the members of the Federal corps pow conducting the for- estry investigations in California. The subject will be divided, in all | probability, under two headings: First, | the prevention of fires, and, second, the extinguishing of fires. Some timber owners who were pres- ent at the meeting gave assurances of their hearty co-operation. The 'idea was advanced that it should be made obligatory by the State that the own- ers of timber lands each year, after the lumbering operations are finished and the first rains come, to burn, un- der careful supervision, the scalings and debris resulting from their opera- tions. | It has been demonstrated that burn- ing conducted as outlined would re- sult in no damage to the standing growth, and, furthermore, would ' not engender the intense heat that arises | from a firelstarting and burning during | the hot and dry spelis of the late sum- mer. This heat causes the standing ! trees themselves to burn and pene- trates through the light soil and de- stroys all the forest cover and even | the roots of the trees. The special committee is expected | to report before October 15. i —_———————— MAKES FORMAL DEMAND ! FOR HUTTON'S REMOVAL Attorney Collins Sends a Copy of | Judge Cook’s Decision in Con- | tempt Proceedings to Mayor. | Mayor Schmitz was formally asked yesterday to remove H. W. Hutton from the police board. The judgment of Judge Cook in the contempt proceedings against Hut- ton, “special chief of police for 1129 | Dupont street,” was spread on the records of the court. It is a typewrit- ten @ocument of seven pages and goes | fully into the merits of the case. One of the paragraphs which will afford | Attorney George O. Collins the oppor- | tunity of insisting upon Hutton’s re- | moval from the office of Police Com- | missioner is as follows: 1 “The court further finds and ad- | judges from the ewidence before it in | the said matter that the said H. W. | Hutton in the commission of the said | | acts hereinbefore specified is guilty of | | an offense involving a willful violation | of his official duties as Police Commis- | sioner of the said city and county of | S8an Francisco and of a contempt of | the authority of the said Superior Court.” . p Attorney Collins yesterday sent a copy of the judgment to the Mayor with a demand that his Honor declare the office of Police Commissioner va- | cant under section 10, article 16 of the charter. He also sent a copy to! the City Treasurer and demanded that | | no further salary warrants of Hut- } ton’'s be paid. i ————————— WIDOW AND CHILDREN INHERIT LARGE ESTATE Pierre B.- Cornwall Leaves Half of Community Property to Two Sons and Two Daughters. The value 0of the estate of the late Plerre B. Cornwall, supposed to be in the neighborhood of $2,000,000, is not | set forth in his will or.the petition for !/ its admission to probate, which were filed ‘yesterday. The pioneer capital- ist died September 5, at the age of 82. He named his son, Bruce Cornwall, and his daughter, Mrs. Bertha J. Fischer, as execiitors. The will'is dated April 22, 1898, and a codicil March 16, 1903, the lat- ter merely substituting Mrs. Fischer as executrix in place of Harry Arden Parrish, who was named in the will. | In the last testament it is announced that $7000 of the estate is separate property, having been acquired by the testator before his marriage. Of this sum $1500 each is left to his two sons and two daughters and ' $1000 to, Plerre G. Moore, a grandson. * It is set forth that the remainder of | the estate is community property, half of which belongs to his wife, | Mrs. Sada D. Cornwall, and for that| reason, but “not for any lack of af-| fection,” no-specific- bequest -is--made | to her. The four children are to have ! the remaining half, share and share | alike. The testator directs that ‘the family residence, 'the property on Second and Harrison streets and his half interest in the ship K Spartan shall be converted into cash. —_——————— clrcul‘ Court of Appeals.
