A society having its own laws and rulers, and havicg under its control commodities or rights necessary to the well-being of the public, cannot be upheld by the law. This | was thie principle which actuated the Su- preme Court of Ohio in striking down the Standard Oil trust, “It is oue thing for the State to protect had been thrust | the rights and properties of individuals or in & vacant lot | corporations,” continued Mr. Hayne, “;:"@\ Tite M€ | quoting from a decision of the New York Supreme Court in the North River sugar trust, “but it is quite another matter for courts to recognize, or much less creat artificial privileges for persons or aggrega- tions of person “Excuse me,” interposed Mr. Garber, “but does not the New York Supreme | Court in that case distinctly refrain from deciding that the combination was ille- al?”’ **No, sir,” retorted Mr. H. as he proceeded to read on; \ thet the whole tone of the opinion is op- | posed to monopolies?”’ ““8till,” persisted Mr. Garber, “it seems to me as though the court in that case re- fused in express terms to pronounce ugon the legality or iilegality of the monopoly.’’ “Then why do they pronounce upon as they do in the other part of the opini Vhy don’t they say what they mean? They ought to, anyhow.”” Mr. Garber, by no means satisfied, started to look up the decision quoted by Mr. Hayne, and having found it, one of his associates started in to read it aloud. “I protest against this interruption.” said Mr. Hayne. “If any one who may wish can interrupt the argument, I shail never get through. If the court wishes to see the decision it can be read at any time in private.” “You may proceed, Mr. Hayne,'"” ob- | served the Judge, with a half smile at the | attorney’s impassioned plea for immunity from interruption. *In the case of the Texas Pacific Railw: against the Southern Pacific Railway,” continued Mr. Hayne, *‘a combination for the purpose of strangling competition | was held to be adverse to the public good | and out of harmony with public policy. | There is a tendency among corporations, even though they may hate each other, to | combine, where there is a prospect that by so doing they may be able to corner the | public. This tendency is mischievous and | dangerous. Such combinations are in | themselves bad, and a menace to the pub- lic, even if not positively invalid. What- into account by the court. The combina- tion itself is a bud thing, ana decided by ;nany courts to be opposed to the common aw.” I would like to have a definite idea as to the manner in which you regard this contract between the two lines,” inter- | posed the Judge. “Do you callit a lease?” “Idon’t know what to call it,” replied | Mr. Hayne. “It is like nothing in the heavens above, or the earth beneath or in | the waters under the earth. [don't see why I should be the one to baptize such a | disguised service. It is a bad thing any- | how and there is no salvation for it irre- spective of baptism. “Now the true rule in this matter is to | be found in the case of the Oregon Naviga- tion Company against Windsor.”” “What were tue facts in that case?” in- | quired Mr. Garber. I haven’t the case here,”” answered Mr. Hayne, “but I know it has some bearing on this case. The decision is rendered by Mr. Justice Bradley, whom I consider one of the great Judges of the country.” “Iari happy to concur with you on that point,” Temarked Mr. Garber. “I refer, you understand, to your dictum in regard to Justice Bradley."” “Iam delighted to have your indorse- ment,” rejoined Mr. Hayvne, with a be. witching smile and a courtly how. He then proceeded to quote a largé number of citations, all of which Mr. Garber carefully noted down. “In considering the points laid down in these cases,” he commented, “the court must endeavor to ‘Yelletrute ali disguises and subterfuges and see the facts as they are. If an act of a corporation be ultra vires, and if this lease, or whatever it may be called, be such an act, and furthermore subversive of public policy, it ought to be considered void under every respect. Judge Sawyer has maintained that an act ultra vires in the strict sense; that is to say, without the range of the corporation’s powers, such an act is to be held absolutely void. If any of the acts of the Southern g l Pacific Company have been of this nature they are and must be considered void. however, does not imply that the great volume of business heretofore trans- acted under this contract should now be ripped up and declared invalid. The law may palliate and perhaps to some extent legalize and revalidate what has been done, but it cunnot undertake to indorse and ratify things to be done under this so- called lease in future.” Judge Garber here interposed to the effect that Mr. Hayne was dealing prin- cipally on subtle refinements of legal practice, and hinted that the point at issue was being neglected. “You misjudge me,” rejoined Hayne, “but when 1 set out to catch a rabbit, I always try to shut up all the holes. I've got this rabbit pretty well cornered, and 1 want to close all possible avenues of escape in order to catch him.” “And I want to catch my boat,” quoth Garber. “Itwill take me only five minutes to finish this point,” pleaded Mr. Hayne. “Yes, and it will take just five minutes to make me lose my boat,” said Mr. Garber in no amiable ton ‘“‘Court stands ad journed until 11 o’clock to-morrow morning,”” said Judge Mec- Kenna; and the rabbit remained at large. BONDS DECLARED VALID. The Supreme Court Sustains a Decision by the Los Angeles Court. The act of the Legislature passed March 17, 1891, providing for the issuing of bonds to defray the cost of street im- provements where the cost exceeds $2a front foot, has been declared valid by the Supreme Court. The opinion of the Supreme Court was rendered in the appeal of L N.

ALONG THE WATER FRONT Bay Pilots Have a Grievance Against the Southern Pacific. RUN WITH UNLICENSED MEN, Captain Spille of the German Bark | Altair Has Made an Innovation on Discharging. The German four-masted bark Altair is one of the handsoraest and best kept ves- sels in port. Captain D. J. Spille has been on ner since her maiden voyage and his boast is that a better-found ship does not sail the seas; the sailors are treated to the same food that is served in the cabin, and there was never a growl until the master insisted upon the men helping in the work of discharging. They did not mind the work, but they did object to be- ing guyed by the longshoremen, who thought it a good joke to see satlors doing work that the stevedore was paid for do- Captain Spille made his point, how- ever. He kept his men at work and the stevedores’ bill was just that much less. Hitherto the object of every ship captain has been to get his men to_desert as soon as the sails were furled. In future they | asked for a reduction in_his dockage bill, on the grounds that the Bear, following an old custom, was only charged quarter rates, while he was charged “all the traffic would bear.” As the bills had been made out and forwarded to the authorities at Washington the Commissioners decided that they could not do anything in the matter. 3 g The tug Fearless, while towing the ship Louisiana to sea yesterday, broke her valve stem and had to signal for assist- ance. The Alert took the ship to sea and the Active brought the disabled tug back to the wharf, where the work of repairing Was at once begun. TO-MORROW’S AUCTION. A Real-Estate Auction of Unusual In- terest to' Be Held To-Morrow. Much interest is manifested in real es- tate circles in the approaching sale of the McCreery - block, which is bounaed by Ba McAllister and Lyon streets, and which is to be sold at auctipn to-morrow in thirty-seven subdivisions.

TOP ND BOTTOM DICE, A Southern Pacific Employe Easily Swindled Out of | His Money. ‘ Instead of Being Part Owner of a| Store in Alaska He Is Mourn- ing the Loss cf $200. An employe of the Southern Pacific | Railroad Company living in Oakland, in- stead of finding himself part owner of a store in Alaska is mourning the loss of $200. Last week his eye caught an advertise- ment in the Examiner, “Wanted, a part- ner to go to Alaska.” He wrote to the | number given, and received a reply to| meet the advertiser at the Examiner bulle- tin board at a certain hour last Saturday. | He was there atthe appointed hour and a well-dressed young man accosted him, | introducing himself as the advertiser. While they were talking another man joined them, and the advertiser intro- duced him as his friend Mr. Howard. The advertiser explained that he was going to Alaska to open a general store, | and he wanted a partner who would have to deposite $200 as his share of the stock to be purchased. The Soutbern Pacific em- ploye was willing, and it was arranged that he should bring tbe $200 with him on Monday. Monday morning the three again met and they adjourued to Matt Kerr's saloon on Leidesdorff and Halleck streets. They had & few drinks, and the advertiser sug- gested a dice game. Howard took the Southern Pacific man aside and explained to him how easy it was to beat the game. All he had to do was to bet on 21 both top and bottom. The bait took, and the Southern” Pacific man put up his $200, which Howard took possession of as stakeholder. The dice was thrown and the Southern Pacific man bet on 21. He was one too short, as 22 was turned up, the dice having been' fixed for the occasion. Howard sneaked out of the saloon with the $200, but the Southern Pacific man held on to the other and begged Kerr to send for a policeman. | Kerr refused, and atter an hour’s detention | the swindler succeeded in breaking away | from the clutches of his victim. The police were notified yesterday morn- ing and Detective Anthony was detailed on the case. After making an investiga- tion a complaint was filed against Kerr with the clerk of the Police Commission- ers, and he will be summoned to appear before the board to-night to show cause why his license snould not be revoked, the police alleging that his saloon is a resort for “sharks’ and gambler: ————————— He Kept the Money.

The defense in the euit of Frank Lawlor sgainst the Southern Pacific Company moved for & nonsuit at the close of the plaintifi’s case yesterday, but Judge Hunt thought the case a good one for the jury to consider, and denied the motion. The defense then Eul several em- loyes on the stand to describe the collision rom the company’'s standpoint. The testi- mony was not material. e .——— James D. Page on Trial. James D. Page, an ex-District Attorney, was vefore Judge Wallace yesterday morning on a charge of embezzlement. He is accused of ap- ropriating $4000 belonging. to the estate of r.nuii Lichnecker, an insane person, of whom he had been appointed guardian. He was ap- prehended in_the East while fleeing from the indictment. Nine jurors were secured and the case will continue to-day. | only | mento I | plot.

She is 300 feet 8 inches long, 42 feet 2 inches broad and 24 feet 8 inches deep. She is owned by Boyes & Ruyter of Bre- men. The bay pilots have a grievance against the Sonthern Pacitic steamers, and it will come to be heard before the Inspectors of Hulls and Boilers to-day. Some time ago Captain Steve Stevenson of the Modoc was disrated, and A. Paul, who used to be wheelsman’on the Stockton steamer Cap- tain Weber, was put in his place. He had hc‘cn three weeks on the Stockton and German ree years - run Captain Fouratt refused a pilot. Theagent of the mers was determined to have 1, 50 he was transterred to the Now comes the trouble. The the candidate for the position of pilot must have been employed three years on the river, and during the last year, at least, continuously. Paul has not been employed on the Sacramento at all, and the Pilots’ Association is determined to have a thorough investigation of the mat- ter. Hitherto they have been shuffled from the Collector of the Port to the inspectors and then back again, but now they intend making a test case. Once before Agent White got the better of them by putting a man named Carson on the Apache as While the association members were complaining, first to the Collector | and then to the inspectors, Carson got his license from the latter and that settled the | matter. Now comes the tug of war. Captain _Weyman of the wrecked | schooner Ellwood is going to make an- other attempt in Alaskan waters. When ona codfishing expedition the vessel went on the rocks and was lost, and ever since the genial skipper has been without a com- mand. He has now purchased the hull of the tug Lena L, and is gzoing to turn her into a gasoline iaunch. She is only a small craft, but Captain Weyman thinks he will have no difficulty in reach- ing Alaska with her. After reaching Resurrection Bay she will go into the trading business, and as the captain has a number of caches on Cooks Inlet he ex- pects to do well on the gold fields. ‘The yacht Coronet thatis to take a party of scientists to japan to view the eclipse of the sun will probably zet away on Sat- urday. Six of her crew deserted at Sausa- lito, but there was no d:fliculty in replac- ing'them. The men who Tan away had too much money coming to them after their long trip around the Horn, and they did not know any quicker method of get- ting rid of it than by desertin, The Harbor Commissioners held a short session yesterday. President Colnon re- fused to approve the bill of the Williams Asphaltum Block Paving Company pe- cause the work on Pacific-street wharf has not been properly done. He also refused to approve the bill for water supplied to the tugs, on the ground that there was an unjust discriminavion in the rates charged to tugs and shipping.

Mrs. Marceau and her attornevs, J. C. | Campbell, of Reddy, Campbell & Metson, Garret McEnerney and F. H. Short, and | Colonel Marceau with hisattorneys, Delmas & Shortridge and ex-Judge Van R. Pater- son, were present, awaiting the coming of Judge Slack, but before he ascended the bench the attorneys all withdrew into the Judge’s chambers, and the spectators waited another fifteen minutes. At the end of that time Judge Slack came, opened courtand announced that in the case of Marceau vs. Marceau the cus- tody of the child would be awarded in pur- suance of a stipulation justentered into by the attorneys in the case and which had been dictated to the stenographer. The ! clerk was ordered to enter the order ac- cordingly and the application for counsel fees was then ordered put over for two weeks. The main case is still in the throes of a compromise. The property question and the charges against Mrs. Marcesu are mat- ters upon which both parties can agree amicably, but upon the custody of the child there was always trouble. -~ Kractured Both Legs. Morrls Beaver, 13 years of age, living with his mother at { Sixth street, had both of | his legs broken yesterday morning. He is em- ployed in the American tool works, 109 Mis- sion street, and while going to his work he jumped on an empty truck driven by W. W. Stewart. At Fifth street he was getting off the truck when he fell and the wheels passed over bis legs. He was taken to the Receiving Hos- pital and later to the City and County Hospi- tal.

RAISING THE BLAIRMORE, Every Bidder Has His Own Theory as to the Method to Be Used. THE CONTRACT NOT LET YET. Shipping Men Are Creating a Fund for the Relatives of the Drowned Men. The fate of the British ship Blairmore is still unsolved. Just who will attempt to raise her has not been decided upon and the five wreckers that put in bids are still on the tenter hooks. All the parties con- cerned met in the oftice of Catton, Bell & Co. yesterday afternoon and offers rang- ing from $22,000 to $30,000 were opened. Who was the highest and who the lowest Lloyd’s agents refused to give out, but the bidders were: A. Robertson, Bassett & Bishop, Alex Campbell Bros., Healy, Tib- bitts & Co., The California Wrecking Com- pany and T. P. H. Whitelaw. All the contractors were called in, one after another, and questioned as to their methods. Robertson will use pontoons if he gets the job. Whitelaw would send down divers and remove the rizging and masts. Afterthat the hull would be towed into low water and puton an even keel. The work of pumping her out would then be comparatively easy. Healy, Tibbitts & Co. would drive clusters of piles around the ship and by placing cables under the hull would raise it bodily. In order to be sure of their premises the firm had a pile- driver out in Mission Bay yesterday test- ing the resisting power of the mud. The Tifornia Wrecking Company 1s backed by the Risdon Tron Works and the chances are that if they secure the contract the work of raising will be done by tugs. Nearly all the contractors stipulate that they will raise and dock the ship within sixty days, but if they succeed inside of three months many an old sea captain will be agreeably surprised. Strange to sav, the bid of the Union Iron Works for the raising of the Earl of Dalhousie was $22,000, but then the company lost over $15,000 on the transaction. Captain R. White of the British ship British Yeoman and Captain R. H.
