The regents attending the meeting were Goverrn 1dd, Hallidie, Miller, Denicke, M ell (of Fresno), Kel- ogg, Phelps, Jobn E. Budd (Stockton), Foote. Wallace, Crocker, Marye, Remn- Chase, Waymire and Slack. Aside | sers of the board Mayor Sutro, Mhooun, O. P. Evan Architect s and Secretary Bonte were present. Every one there seemed to recognize ortant business on hand was Atfiliated Colleges site, so onel C. F. Crocker moved to sus- alar order and take up the committee the motion ed. Budd called on Judge Wallace for a report, and the Judge, with admirable {'nhkuxfi of mind, requested Attorney Mhoon to present the docament. Major Mhoon related briefly the negoti- s with Mayor Sutro which were be- n last S er, and continued until st Monday. Reference was made to the ient that Mayor Sutro losy or mislaid irst agreement which the law com- repared for his signatare. In ney said: ““Yesterday ste ace and ! submitted the second agreement to Mr. Sutro, and he said then that he would it der adviserment nd answer to-day. At the request of Governor Budd Major ad the agreement.

Governor Budd (to stenographer)—Take down everything he says. Mayor Sutro—Yes, take down the Gov- or's language, 100, Sutro (resuming)—Fellows that ought to in the State prison are opposing me. e Potrero site was first wanted, and e board accepted my site they re- to beat it. Huntington, the head , is a scoundrel and a self- confessed criminal who ought to be in prison. Yes. take it down. He has a fol- lo = ol nincompoops and scoundrels, me of them of little caliber. Some of them are members of honorable commis- sions and scientific bodies, but they keep in the backgronad and have flunkeys do their work. The fact is they don't want this location of mine forthe collezes. They want to destr my good name and de- stroy my princely gift. The big steal in Congress is t bée passed this week, and that will end the republic. The meanest concerns in the world are the newspapers. The hirelings form public opinion, as the vommon people do not understand many questions. Now, you want me to sign something in twenty-iour hours, and yon seek to malicn me because I will not do it. There may be a nigger in this — . Governor Budd (interrupting)—Surely Judge Wallace and Major Mhoon would not put a nigger in the agreement. I have been in favor of your site from the first, Mayor Sutro (to Governor Budd)—You are trying to pick flaws with me. 0. P, Evaus obtained the floor to ex- i I 1 vlain how the library transaction became invalved with the college site. Mention was made of conferences wherein Sutro, Reuven Lloyd, Judge McKinsiry and himself participated. Mr. Evans said, *'So far as T am able to state there never has been a time when Mr. SButro was not willing to sign the original agreement. Mayor Sutro—{ desired to endow the library and was shown a clause where i could give it to the university and still ap- oint the trustees. I have had bigh respect or regents in their day, and possibly now; but in the future I thought we might get a Governor under the control of the oc- topus. e Mr. Sutro then expressed his opinion to the effect that Huntington, Collis P., is a scoundrel. When he finished with this statement he said that he would con- sult his attorneys and cet a consulitation of the regents’ attorneys and hisown. Judge Wallace, who bad been examining the records of the regents, said that on September 10, 1895, Mr. Sutro had agreed 30 convey the library site within pinety ays. Mayor Sutro—I did not find an hour to give to the work. 2 The Mayor attempted to speak again, when the Governor rapped Vigorous. for order, saying sharply: “There is no attempt to jump on you. Now you must come to order. The regents ask you to carry out the contract. You come here and traduce the voard. In the interests of California the regents ask you o sign your agreement. They ask for no more, and will take no less.” Judge Wallace reminded the board that Mr, Sutro never consented to convey the library management to the regents. Aftér furtber discussion, in which many of the regents participated, and in which Sutro managed to introduce the octopus several times, Judge Wallace offered a resolution that the board accept the col- lege site without reference to the library. “We haye not paid him anything, recol- lect. In the liberality of his heart he gave us this college site first. Then be said in further generous spirit, ‘L will give the Ifbrary site,” but the tax of the endowment precludes it. Let us now take the college site of thirteen acres.” A Governor Budd—If this motion had been maae in the beginning I would have voted for it, but now after all bis refusals and his talk I would see that university nk before T conid be whipped into line by his scurrilous demagogism. egent Foote said he would not allow his personal feelings of indignation and disgust to restrain him from doing his duty 10 _the university Mayor Sutro tried to speak again, but the Governor, showing some excitement, said: *‘Mayor Sutro, take your seat; you have been beard enough.”’ Regents Waymire and Houghton were willing to give the Mayor further time. George T. Marye acquiesced in the ex- tension of time, but he was moved to dep- recate Mr. Sutro’s remarks as ‘‘infelici- s resolved at length, after Sutro named McKinstry, Lloyd and Moore as his attorneys, to have Wallace, Foote and Mhoon meet them. So the guestion was | in effect referred to the law committee again, but Judge Slack declined to serve. | Beiore | the room Sutro offered | to then and there sign the exiension of time for the college deed. J. West Martin wanted the personalities of the aay expunged from the minutes, as the records of the board had never been marred by such proceedings. Judge Wallace—If it was fit to hear, it is fitto go on record. I did not take anv of hisremarksas a personal affront. [Laugh- ter.] Shortly after Mavor Sutro retired, Gov- ernor Budd started for San Jose. Judge Waymire was called to the chair and much routine business transacted. Bills amounting to $2245 were passed. The law committee on the Sutro nego- tiations is under instructions to report three weeks hence. The board adjourned, baving resolved to expunge nothing from the minutes, it having been ascertained that the stenographer did not catch the personalities, as they flew around so rapidly RICHMOND 1S AROUSED, 4 Better Fire-Extinguishing Facili- ties Will Be D:- manded. Views of Residents and Members of the Department on the Urgency of the Need. The fatal result of the fire on Sunday night on Thirteenth avenue, near Lake street, has aroused the people of the Rich- mond district to what they term the in- adequate protection offered to residents in case of a conflagration, and at a meeting of consolidated clubs to be held in Croswaithe Hall to-night that will be one of the matters discussed. The resi- dents will demaxd additional fire-aiarm stations, larger water mains, more hy- drants and a change offthe site of the trucke company nearest to the district. “*Here we have a territory,” said J. H. Bond of the Richmend Banner yesterday, “that_extends from Central avenue to the Cliit House and irom the north line of Golden Gaie Park to the southern bound- ary of the Presidio reservation, including 336 blocks, and the measurement of which is three miles one way by one the other, wi th only one engine company in the dis- trict, that is No. 26, on Second avenue, between A and B sireets. There are other companies that answer to alarms from here, but they are so far away thata great deal of time is lost in reaching a fire. ““The water mains in this growing dis- trict are not large enough, and if the Spring Valley Water Company, hat has been pleadi poverty, can put up a $300,000 building it certainly ought to have means at its command to increase the size of the mains here. We haye but eight-inch mains and these do not supply enough water when more than one engine takes water from them at the same time. “*We have asked for different things, but we have not always had them accorded to us by the authorities. This matter of protection against fire will be discussed at S NEW TO-DAY. JECUTTER EXTRA a staple family and medicinal the meeting Wednesday night and we will then make a demand for better protection, There are a great many new houses being erected in this district at this time. This morning I counted thirty-two going up in different directions. Buildings are going up on the line of the Sutro road and there is no protection from fire there. There is the Cliff House, the baths and adjacent property and not an engine company nearer than forty-two blocks. If a fire broke out in the Cliff House when a southwester was blowing nothing could save the building‘s around there un- less it was a miracle. The roads out here are not in good condition, and thatrenders it difficult to get an engine over the ground in a hurry at a time when time is of the greatest importance.”” John J. Murphy, the engineer of 26 en- gine, said that bad roads is a serious hin- drance to effective service. “Why,” said he, “our men in the nighttime have to go ahead with lanterns to_examine the roads and streets to prevent the engine from get- ting stalled. The mains ought to be larger, for when one engine takes suction at a nydrant and then another engine takes suction at another hydrant near by neither obtains a good stream. True, we have hydrants in the salt-water main, but in the use of that we are handicapped in the lack of fresh water for the boilers, and we have to have such water brought in buckets and tins to raise steam. “We are assisted in this district by engine 23 on Washington street, near Baker, No. 30 engine at Stanyan and Wal- ler streets and No. 5 truck on Post street, near Fillmore, but it takes these compa- nies a long time to reach here.” T. G. Parker stated that the truck com- pany on Post sireet, near Fillmore, has to climb a heavy grade to reach the Rich- mond degree, and he was of the opinion that it ought to be located near California street and Central avenue, 2s from that point it would be down grade in three directions and a great deal of time wounld be saved in reachin% a point. There is need for more signal boxes and some cer- tainty of being able to get keys when wanted. The key for box 412 is in a house the occupant of which is in Marin County eleven months in the vear. 4 “The people here are going to agitate for better protection and unless the cry of ‘no money’ is raised they will get it.” “To cave in” comes from the English coal-mining regiovs. After a mine had been worked out and abandoued, the last item in its history was the cavingin of the ground above.
