Glacial Evidences on the Pacific Coast Have Never Been Thoroughly Studied. Professor O. P. Jenkins of Stanford University delivered a lecture of vast interest and in- | struction st the Academy of Sciences last | evening. He spoke on the subject of “Glaciers Past and Present,” and accompanying his descrip- tions he exhibited a series of magnificent stereopticon views, which illustrated the de- tails of the phenomena of the glaciers in that great glacial region surrounding Mount Blanc in the Alps. The pictures, beginning at the terminal point of a large glacier, would, one after an- other, carry the view far up into the lofty re- | cesses of tiie mountains, where, from around | the snow cap of Mount Bianc, the ice streams descended in all directions. 1f one pick up alon% a stream a pebble, said the pm?cmr. he will find ita rounded one. | As water falls into a stream irom a bank there are certain definite things it does with (hei pebble. It not only makes them _lcuhd but has another peculiar power of sorting the large stones from the small. The finest stones are always found at the end of the water course. These characteristics of what water will do gives us a key to what it has done when we find stones away {rom existing water courses, The glacial geology of this coast has not been studied thoroughly.” One of the noted geolo- gists has said that there are glacial marks in the coast range., The glacial region of Califor- nia extends down only about 5000 feet in the Sierras. There are many phenomena in the coast range which might be interpreted as the result of giacial action. The great glacial areas of the world are found in the northern part of North America and that portion of Asia adjacent to Hindostan, The glacial phenomena of the region around women had | home was an | as Mount Biane, are individual and derive their source from the heaping of snow on the summits of the high peaks. This snow, by its own weight, is pressed down the sides of the peak and is transtormed by the action of the sun into ice, which in great masses passes down through the higher surface fields of mountain formation until it reaches the milder climate of the lower valieys. At this point the ice is melted and the water, flowing from it, forms the sources of the larger rivers of Europe. The glacier on its journey downward flows like a veritable siream at a rapidity of from eighteen to twenty-two inches a day. The rapidity of the current is found by drilling a line of sticks across the ice and measuring on the sides the istance passed in twenty-four hours. is highly plastic, and the flow of a giacier is like the flow of viscid pitch, Small rocks and bowlders are shaken down from the preci- pitous sides of the mountain through which the glacier passes and pile themselves together with earth on either side of the glacial stream. These heaps of soil and rock are called “lat- eral moraines.” When true glacial streams tn their course unite the lateral moraine of the rigit side of one ranges alongside of the mor- aine ou the left side of the other.and this center heap in the augmented ice stream, re- mbling a vast windrow of earth, is called a edian moraine.” When the glacier melts in the warmer valleys these collections of rock are deposited at the meeting point and form the terminal moraine. The rocks and bowlders in_such a deposited heap are never rounded and are but slightly scratched, Beneath the glacier, if all the ice were to be melted, would be found a smooth, polished suriace of rock, worn thus by the action of the passing ice. At the sides of the ice stream the roc in the seratched., In this way when rocks are found in locali- ties of the world remote from present glaciers, yet preseuting the same characteristics, it may be safely concluded that a glacier has passed that way and its direction oi flow may be ascertained. In Indiana, which has not naturally any granite 1ocks, large bowlders of granite have been carried by ancient glaciers clear from Cenada. The region of the Sawtooth Moun- tains in Idaho present similar glacial phenom- ena found in the Alps. Continental giaciers as dis at the present day only in Greeniand and Ice- land. The courses of continental glaciers as fer down toward the cquator as Indiana have never been satisiactorilly explained. HAD HER TRLBES SHIED A Swell Young Woman Patron- izes a Clay-Street Boot- black Stand. mountain would appear | The New Woman Startled the Whole- sale District of San Francisco Yesterday at Noon. In the Eastern metropolises it is no Icnger an extraordinary spectacle to see well-dressed women sitting high in the bootbiack’s armchair and having a patent- leather polish rubbed and brushed upon the surface of her substantial, common- sense shoes. In San Francisco it 1s differ- ent, but perhaps it won’t be so for long. The ice was broken yesterday by a styl- ishly dressed young woman who mounted the bootblack’s stand on the south side of Clay street, just a door or two below Mont- gomery. She worea short tan jacket above a black bell-skirt that bore evidences of yards and yards of haircloth lining. There was a dainty Alpiné hat, with feather on net from individual glaciers are found | THE SOLID EIGHT'S AGENT, Eager Desire on the Part of the Grand Jury to Uncover Him. MORE WITNESSES CALLED. The Jury Received the Names of Men Who Paid Money to Beat the Pool Ordinance. Bince the adjournment of the Grand Jury last Monday night leading members of that body have been actively engaged in pursuit of information concerning the contribution of boodle to defeat or delay the passage of the pool ordinance, The members of the Grand Jury are wholly convinced that the leading citizens of San Francisco—a vast majority of the best people of the City—strongly favor the crusade against pool selling, open poker shops and gambling establishments of va- rious kinds. The merchants, the indem- nity associations and leading institutions of the City are in accord with the general sentiment against all phases of gambling whieh tend to demoralize the boys and young men. While the Grand Jury has enjoined upon its members the greatest secrecy informa- tion is derived from an authentic source that the jury received last Monday night the names of persons who said that they had paid money to defeat the pool order. As to whether the name of the person to whom tue monev was paid was made known to the jury is still a question of doubt. The membersof the inquisitive institution are, however, highly elated and assert that they have something of a defi- nite character to govern future inquiry. The report that a great number of wit- nesses will be summoned to attend the session next Friday does not lack confir- mation. The belief is strong that many of the leading pool-sellers, as well as at- tuches of ‘‘commission” establishments, will be called to the new City Hall that day. The witnesses of the meeting of the Grand Jury Monday, and particularly the Supervisors, were asked many questions aboat the reported ‘‘combine’” of eight Supervisors, and frequent reference was made to the record showing that eight members of the. board had solidly voted against measures which had been highly recommended us beneficial, and had also voted solidly in favor of measures which the public regard as dangerous. The Grand Jury made special inquiry i w of ascertaining whether the ht had an attorney, agent or broker, who represcnted them as a body, end whose advice governed tiem in muni- cipal legislation. he unity of action which has long distinguished the conduct of the eight Supervisors has strongly im- pressed the Grand Jury with the belief that leadership has been invoked.

There was a_Police Gazette in the empty chair to her right, but she turned to Kerlel( and spoke as calmly and unconcernedly as might be to her escort, gentleman who wore a brown business suit and appeared to be suffering from an acute attack of ennui. She raised her black skirt to within Lalf an inch of her shoetops, and said to the amazed bootblacks, “I'll have a shine, please.”” The bootblacks gazed at the Trilby feet encased in the finest and softest calfskin, but bottomed by heavy walking soles’ that projected pronouncedly over the uppers— they looked, gasped, and then set to work, It was at the noon hour and Clay street was busy with passing men and women. They stopped and stared for an instant at the unusual sight, then went on to their luncheons. ¢If she in the bootblack’s chair was annoyed at this notoriety she con- cealed 1t carefully. She talked to her companion steadily and declined to return the staring glances of the passers-by. Presently the job was done, and the bootblacks could see their own faces in the shining surface of the Trilbies before them. Two of the footrests were removed and the bell-skirt, tan jacket, alpine hat and all the rest stepped demurely down and banded the nearest bootblack a nickel. Mechanically he reached for the hat, to brush it, then saw the feather in itand hesitated—and was lost. Then the lady and her escort boarded the passing Clay-street car and rode to- ward the ferry. “I'll stake a dime for charity she’s {rom Chicago!” said the wondering boot- black as he tossed the nickel in his drawer and started in on a pair of cork soles that had been wading in water front mud. e Hard Times Make Cheap Price This is true of land as well as merchan- dise, and no exception is likely in the sale of that valuable and beautiful property, Bay Forest Farm, part of the Brittan ranch, San Mateo County, near Redwood Moun?

The Grand Jury bas, therefore, resolved to employ its greatest diligence, patience and skill to uncover the agent.of the ma- jority of the Supervisors. Members com- prehend that the task is not an easy one. It is easy to get rumors, reports and hear- say statements, but it is very difficult in- deed to get actual facts and documents to corroborate common rumor. It is deemed advisable at this time to keep secret the names of witnesses desired at the next session. There is apprehen- sion that two or three of the men wanted may conclude to take advantage of cheap railroad fares to spend the holidays in the East. General J. H. Dickinson was asked yes- terday if he knew why the majority of the Board of Supervisors had delayed action on the pool ordinance. He said that he had been so busy in the Durrant case that he had not talked with the Supervisors for some time. He re- marked that the companionship which he and Supervisor Hughes formed in the Na- tional Guard was as strong as ever, and that Colonel Hughes bad consulted him severa) times on matters connected with municipal legislation. General kinson said that the pool ordinance, as it came from the Grand Jury, was weak, as it allowed pool-selling on foreign races. He pointed out the weak spot to Supervisor Hughes. The general said, so far as his individual prei- erence went, he would stop Eool-sellin m the City ana on the racetrack. He under- stood that fifteen &cobsellerg at the race- course each paid $100 a day for the priv- ‘i’lege of selling pools during the racing ays. The general said he did not know who was now acting as the agent or attorney of the pool-sellers. WAS NOT PRIVILEGED. The Supreme Court Has Granted a New Trial in the Mullin Will Con- test. The Supreme Court has reversed the order of Judge Coffey denying a new trial of the contest of the will of Henry E. Maullin, on the ground of error in refusing f to admit testimony. Mary Mullin, widow of the testator, pro- duced the will in the Superior Court and petitioned for its %robue, and a contest was entered by the brothers and sisters of the deceased, they alleging undue influ- ence and unsoundness of mind. The ver- dict of the jury set aside the will. In reviewing the testimony the Supreme Court calls attention to the ruling wpon the testimony of George A. Prector, the attorney who drew up the will and who was one of the witnesses; and also the tes- timony of Dr. John Lagan, the attending physician and a witness to the will. roctor was told by the testator how he wanted his property disposed of, and then Proctor went into another room and drew up the document. When he returned Mul- lin signed it and asked him to be a wit- ness, Proctor was asked about the conversa- tion which had taken place before he drew up the testament, but the questions were not allowed, on the ground that they re- lated to privileged communications. The Supreme Court holds this to be error, as after becoming a witness to the will the attorney could not be prevented from giving evidence as to the mental con- dition of the testator under the guise of it being a privileged communication. With Dr. Lagan’s evidence the same rul- ing was made in the court below, and the same comment comes from the courtabove. SLASHED TWO SAILORS. Patrick Kelly Held to Answer Before the Superior Court. Patrick Kelly was yesterday held by Judge Low to answer before the Superior Court on two charges of assault to murder in $5000 bonds each. The evidence showed that in the earl morning of November 21 Kelly met J. Wooler and John Welsh, two sailors, on Main street,and asked them where he could geta drink. The three went to a saloon on Folsom street, where they had several drinks. Thesaloon-keeper refused to give them more liquor and ordered them out. As they were walking along Main street Kelly without any provocation drew a razor out of his pocket and cut and slashed at Wooler and Welsh till they fell bleeding from their numerous wounds. JAPANESE-MADE 0003, The Question of Cheap Labor and Competition Under Discussion. Two Committee Reports to Be Pre- sented to the Manufacturers’ Association. At the last meeting of the Manufactur- ers’ Association a committee consisting of Directors Sonntag, Sproule and Saroni was appointed to look into the matter of cheap Japanese goods imported into this country in competition with American manufac- tured goods and wares. Yesterday the committee met; that is Chairman Sonntag and Mr. Saroni dis- cussed the matter. Mr. Sproulesvas unable to attend, owing to ill bealth. Chairman Sonntag said that he was in | favor or recommending the move that was most favored at the directors’ meeting— that of calling a mass-meeting of all the manufacturers and representative business bodies. He argued that the Manufacturers and Producers’ Association should put | itself on record as being opposed to the | importation of cheap Japanese goods. | He said thata tariff might have some | effect, but not sufficient for the protection | that American manufacturers were en- | titled to have. The matter, Mr. Sonntag contended, should be settled by a treaty between Japan and the United States, by which all articles coming into competition with home-made products should be ex- cluded. Congress should appoint a committee to investigate the matter and see if there was any danger and if the statements concern- ing the prospects of cheap Japanese goods flooding the American markets were true. | 1t found to be true Congress could put & | stop to the importations. In conclusion he said that it was the duty of the association to take a decided stand for the protection of the manufac- wurers and the laborers agamnst a common | | enemy, for the workingmen of this coun- try, who receive none too much of the | comforts and necessanies of life, would | suffer equaily with the empioyers if this | condition of affairs lasted much longer. Mr. Saroni took an opposite view of the situation and argued that the danger had been exaggerated. His main argument was that the matter was entirely® outside the scope of the Manufacturers ana Pro- ducers’ Association, which should deal with State and not with National matters. He asserted that such restrictions as sug- gested by the chairman would put the community entirely at the mercy of trusts and combinations more immical to the welfare of the public than the danger com- plained of. As the two committeemen could mnot agree upon the nature of the repcrt they would return to the board of directors they decided to submit their respective views upon the question. ALONG THE FRONT. The Remains of Emma Brown, Who Shot Herself at Unga, Arrived on the Pearl. Among the arrivals yesterday was the schooner Pearl from Unga Island, Alasks. Her cargo was nearly all composed of furs and gold and silver ore for the Alaska Commercial Company. On board were also the remains of Emma Brown, the young daughter of F. R. Brown, who shot herself in Unga on the 7th of November last. The young woman had been de- spondent for some time, and in a fit of desperation she seized her father’s revolver and sent a bullet through her heart. An inquest was held, and the verdict of the jnry was *‘that said Emma Brown did by Ler own hand, with a Colt’s 38-caliber re- volver, shoot herself through the heart, from the effects of which shot she in- stantly died.” The deceased and her father had many relatives and friends in San_Francisco, so the remains were sent here for interment. Fourth-street bridge has broken down agnin, and the shipping men are howling. The accident happened vesterday, and in consequence seven lumber vessels and three or four other craft are tied up in Channel street. Just as many schooners are waiting to get in, and yesterday the cursing was Joud and frequent when a tugboat captain came along with a tow sn%l found the bridge closed down for re- pairs. The Board of Supervisors should, once for all, put the structure in a thor- ough state of repairs, and thus prevent the periodical breakdowns, and the consequent stoppage of the shipping traffic. 3 TEe Hawaiian ship John Ena, which made the smart run of fifty-six days from Newcastle, N.S. W., has discharged her cargo of coal at Oakland. She will come over to Main-street wharf and take in bal- last. She will then go to Puget Sound and load lumber for Australia. Captain Schnauer will not go out on her, and Cap- tain Madison will take his place. ———————— STERLING silver novelties in an immense a sortment, at the lowest prices in town at Ne man & Levinson’s, 125 to 131 Kearny street. * — . e ——— In medieval times the best perfumes were made in France and Italy, the per- fnmers of those countries acquiring a dex- terity unknown elsewhere, and possessing many secret methods of manufacture. ——————————————————————— DIED, 1 PENDERGAST—In this city, December 3, 1895, l Clara Pendergast, a native of San Francisco, aged 27 years 6 months and 1 day. ‘A~ Notice of funeral hereafter. COMPACT OF RAILWAYS, All Western Lines United in an ~ Agreement to Maintain Rates. NEW CHARGES ON BICYCLES. The Local Passenger Ticket Associa- tions Will Meet and Dis- solve To-Day. L The great railroad corporations that were represented at the Chicago confer- ence recently have announced the forma- tion of a compact on passenger rates, to include all Western roads and lines en- gaged in transcontinental business. The new regulations resulting from this agree- ment went into effect Decemoer 1. There is an interesting local aspect to this gigantic combine. To-day the San | Francisco and Oakland Passenger Ticket | Agents’ Association will meet in its offices in the Mills building and simply dissolve. Its secretary, W. W. Smith, will be retired. The Los Angeles Passenger Association will also meet and disband and dismiss its secretary, C. T. Parsons. These local associations were formed some months since to stop rate-cutting and the giving of commissions to brokers | on tickets. But as the new compact has absolute control of the California lines there 1s no further use for the San Fran- cisco and Los Angeles societies. Besides, | the order that becams effective on Decem- | ber 1is far more stringent than any law | the local bodies could form, for the reason | that the head men of all the lines have | made new laws, miraction of which by an | | agent means fine penalties. It has now be- come a case of each ticket agent obeying | the laws laid down by his chiefs, whereas it used to be a matter of violating at the risk of a small penalty a rule made by | himself. The change is consequent upon the for- | mation of the Western States Passencger ! Association in Chicago and the transcon- | tinental asrecment, both of which have di- rect control of all Californian traffic, and in | the future agents will be held responsible to the secretaries of these associations. The first notification of the change re- ceived in San Francisco came last Friday. Under the new rules no commissions are | allowed to hotel-runners or brokers, and | there can be no deviation from published | tariffs. Agents are not permitted to sell | or exchange - second-hand or scalped tickets, or to aid or facilitate a brokerage business. Charge shall be made by all the lines for ortation in baggage-cars of bicycles, cles and baby carriages, on the basis | of regnlar excess-baggage rates, each bi- cycle, tricycle or baby carriage to be charged for the same as fifty pounds of ex- cess-baggage, the minimum charge in each case to be 25 cents. This charge shall be in addition to and separate from any charge for excess-baggage proper,and these arti- | cles shall not be carried asa part of the | regular baggage allowance. Such articles | will only be checked for passengers accom- panying them and presenting regular pas- sage tickets. | [he issuance of passes, or free or reduced | rate tickets, the furnishing of free sleeping- car accommodations, or meals, or reduced | rates on the same, or the granting of any | consideration of value to one or more of a | party of passengers for the purpose of in- tluencing or securing passenger business, is prohibited. Tickets handled by brokers shall not be redgemed by lines over whicn such tickets read. Excursion tickets may be sold at a rate of one and one-third fare where the local one-way rate is 3 cents a mile, and one and one-fifth wnere the local one-way rote is over 3 cents, for country and district fairs, bicycle meets, races, within a distance of seventy-five miles of the place at which the fair or meeting is held. In the articies of agreement it is stated 4 “‘the purposes of the association are to provide ior joint instead of individual action in all such _matters of common in- terest, and to afford rmtection against unfair competition, to the end that proper rates of fare may be maintained.” | | | named by the Daue‘s ground.” | Holland was so from a word signifying *‘marsk NEW TO-DAY.
