All the Result of a Misunder- standing With the Tele- phone Company. Market Street Assuming a Gay Ap- pearance With Streamers of Purple and Gold. A slight misunderstanding between the tetephone company and the decorating committee of the CUbristian Endeavor Convention ghreatened to interiere seriously with the decorating of Market street to welcome the visiting delegates. Some of the decorations put up by the committee on the company¥’s poles were removed by the company’s men and a spirited encounter seemed imminent. The trouble all arose in this way: On ‘Wednesday evening Chairman Perkins of the decoration committee called at the Telephone building to get permission to use the poles. None of the officers of the company could be seen, but the work of decoration proceeded notwithstanding. Later employes of the company, finding that in a number of cases the decorations had been put up improperly and inter- fered with the company’s lines, took the bunting down. “You have no idea the amount of trouble those decorations have caused,” said Inspector Prendergast of the tele- phobe company last night. *“In the first place the decorators did not get permis- sion of the autborities, If they had we could . have shown them howto fasten | the streamers properly. The company nad no objections to having the decora- t1ons tied to the poles in such a way as not to interfere with its lines, ~ “But the decorators had nailed scan- tlings to the poles, and on these scantiings the bunting had been fastened. Some of these scantlings were inserted between the. pole and the cable running up from the ground, and, as a result, when the wind blew the scantlings pried on the ca- | bles and threatened to break them, thus causing inconvenience to teléphoae sub- scribers and damage that would require “Owing to the strong wind on Market street the ends of the streamers were also blown across the wires, and the connect- | ing of the wires cause (rouble on the tele- | phone lines. | “The company does not wish to inter- fere with the decorations, and, although its permission was not obtaineq, it does not objeet to decorations that are put up properly. The only decorations we had taken down were those which injured our property or interfered with the working of the lines. The decorations were not taken away, .as some have charged, but were femoved from the poles Bna left on the sidewalk." The aecoration of Market street is being | rapidly completed. Streamers are flying all along the south side, and the work of decorating the north side of ‘the sireet will probably be finished soon. When .the work is completed the street will pre- sent 8 wonderfully gay appearance. A 00UNTY MAY BE SUED, | An’ Interesting Decision by the.State Supreme Court Yesterday. . A county may sue or be sued in a court. Such is the vith of a decision handed down by the Supreme Court yesterdsy in the case of the county of Colusa against the county of Glenn in an action to re- cover $162272, Glenn County was formed out of Colusa Connty in 189L Prior thereto in 1885 1886 and 1887, the State Board of Equalization assessed the North- ern Railway Company upon 6281 miles of its railway then 1n Colusa County. The railroad did not pay these assessments until 1894 when it turned $3536 74 into the State treasury as due to Colusa and in December of that year $1622 72 was paid to the county of Glenn. The county of Colusa claimed this money on the ground that it was owed to that county before ‘Glenn was formed. Glenn County de- murred to the complaint in the action to recover on the ground that a county can- not sue or-be sued and the demurrer was sustained by the lower court. The Supreme Court decided that under the county government act a county may sue or be sued and it ordered the lower court to deny the demurrer. e e e TO-DAY'S TENNIS, List of the Matches Arranged for the Big Tournament.

First-Class Material and the | Best of Modern Equipment | to Be Supplied. | Rapid Transit Facilities Will Be | !: Afforded to a Vast and Impor- | tant Section of the City. | The managers of the reorganized San | Francisco and Ban Mateo Electric Rail- | way Company are going forward with' the work of reconstructing the system. Ex- tensive contracts and important purchases of materials which will involve an outlay of $80,000 have been authorizad. president of the company, Adolph Spreck- els, has given the investment careful study and 1s well sal ed with the prop- | erty: He has determined that only first- | class materials shall be used in the re- building of the line. The line when re- constructed will be equipped with the best of rolling stock and will be operated for the convenience of the vast residence section of the City that will. depend on this road for (raveling facilities. Much |of the material for the rebuilding of the line has been pur- | chased. It is said that property-owners who may nave some misgiving as to the | character and style of the proposed recon- struction may rest assured that the work will ‘be as durable and. efficient as the; could desire. In fact better material may be used than they have petitionea for and the facilities of trave! which the reorgan- ized line may offer will surpass their ex- | pectations. The main line of the road, extending from Steuart street 10 Baden, will afford the convenience of rapid transit to a | vast and thickly settled region of the City, which will surely grow in importance by reason of the increased railway facilities. The present terminus or initial point of the line on Bteuart street, near Market, affords connection with the ferries. | Snould additional facilities or rights he | necessary at this point they will be ac- quired. It is regarded as a fortunate tning for the people of an extensive and rapidly deyeloping section of the City that the San Mateo Railway has passed | into the bands of men who have the means and enterprise to handle the prop- erty. Recent investigation has brought to light the fact that the Market-streét Rail- to use the public streets of this City. ‘While the municipal authorities for many years have granted concessions with a lav- ish hand to this corporation certain pub- lic rights were reserved, and the rights guaranteed under this reservation may be invoked should there arise a determined resistance to competition. The extension of the line beyond Baden may not be seriousiy considered for some time vet. Efforts for the immediate future will be devoted to the rebuilding of the main line and construction of feeders. As the country develops ana the population increases steps may be taken _to extend the line in the direction of 8an Jose. EvIDENTLY the makers of Bchilling’s Best tea believe in good measure, and don’t seem to care if tha measure runs over a trifle. Most all our readers know of this miss- ing word contest, but something hap- pencd in connection with it the other day that may be news. It seems queer, any- how, but the right word for it is realiy liberality. You may remember that tneir large ad- vertisements contained this s2ntence: *In addition to the $1000 offered we will pay $100 each to the two persons who send in the largest number of Schilling’s Best yellow tickets before June 15."" No one could tell from this wording that they wanted the plumsto go to the people who used the tea—not to grocers, though such was the case.. But it hap- pened that two slirring grocers took hoid of th- proposition, sent in a small cart- load of tickets and won the prizes. Of course that was not turning out just as A. Bchilling & Co. wanted it, but it did not seem to worry them much., Toey got out of it by paying the grocers $200 and then paying two additional prizes of $100 each to the two consurhers who sent the two largest numbers. That is rather a graceful and elegant way to get out of a difficulty. —_— Ingleside Coursing. Following is the drawing for the coursing st Ingleside next Sunday: J.

Expert Kytka, the Last Actor, Fails to Cover Himself- With Glory, Stand, and Is Ruled to Be Not Sufficiently Competent. That ‘‘tired feeling’’ so completeiy and disastrously permeated the systems of the attorneys, witnesses, clerks, bailiffs, ex- hibit-hostlers and others connected with the Fair-Craven Slack called a welcome halt yesterday and ordered everybody off to the woods for a ten-day lay-off ‘and general recuperation. The attorneys for the Fair heirs are re- sponsible for the condition of affairs that | made - this step really necessary. Mr. Wheeler was taken ill while 1he conspir- acy charging Witness Aitken was reveling in the most interesting chapters-of his strange yarn, ing the direct examination of this witness, and his'associates ciaimed that none but he could complete it, by reasor of the al- liar with the story and was competent to pilot Aitken over the stony path that lay before him. o 8 They had been informed that his Honor .intended to direct that the examination | of Aitken would proceed despite Wheeler’s indisposition, so they planned a grand- stay play to circumvent such a disaster. They brought their ailing associate into court yesterday, enveloped in an immense overcoat and with his throat swathed in bandages. 1t was solemnly proclaimed | that Mr. Wheeler was there to proceed with. the examination of Aitken, sick as he was. less as to permit this? . Of course Bot. But the long adjournment was not ordered until after the attorneys for Mrs. Craven bad been given an opporturiity to have some sport with Kytks, the in- dividual who proclaimed nimself on the witness-staud to be a thoroughly qualified | expert on all matters pertaining to pho- tography, microscopy, typography and-a | little of everything in general. He was | called by the plaintiffs for the purpose of | giving testimony to the .effect that the blanks used by Notary Cooney in ac- knowledging Mrs, Craven’s disputed deeds were of a lot printed by the Crocker | Company as late as January, 1896, and | therefore could not have been acknowl- edged in 1804, as their date indicates. But unfortunately for Kytka a question as to | iis competency arose, and in fact it was | demonstrated right there in conrt that he | bad woefuliy overestimated his abilities. | Kytka was placed on'the witness-stand | at the direction of the court, and for the special purpose of being subjected to the test as regarded his knowledge of differ- ent kinds of type. Broad smiles were soon to be seen in all parts of the court- | room as it aeveloped under Attorney Del- | mas’ guestioning, tnat the expert could . not distinguish scare-head primer. irom agate type, and hopelessly mixed himself upin general. gt In his wonted quiet way Judge Slack said he guessed, Kytka could not vass ! muster in_this particular line, and he or- | dered him off the stand. | Then came the adjournment. Mr. Del- | mas registered a formal objection to a va- | cation being taken before the witness Aitken bad been finished with, but then there was Mr. Whoeler in his agony, and the court could not be flinthearted. The | new season of the celebrated drama will | not begin until the 12th of July. | VAGRANCY AND INSANITY. Mary McManus Will Have Answer Both Charges. Mrs. Mary McManus is booked to ap- pear belore Judge Conlan this morning to receive her sentence on a charge of vagrancy, and also to appear before the Insanity Commissioners to be examined as to her mental condition. Mrs. McManus played a prominent part in a suit in Judge Hunt’s court recently. It was the case of Jeremiah J. Sheeby, as administrator of the estate of Mrs. Catherine Wallace against William J. ‘Wallace, her son, to recover the possession of a piece of property-on Lyon street. ‘Wallace borrowed $3000 on the property, and claimed that his mother gave him a deed to the property before herdeath. The case was decided in favor of the adminis- trator, and Judge Hunt sent the papers in the case to the Grand Jury. Mrs. McManus, who 1s the wife of Evgene McManus, a purser, made a Mrs. to she was present when her husband, Eugene McManus, made out the deed, and saw Mrs. Wallace put a cross to it. In court during the trial she testified that it was after Mrs. Wallace’s death that her hus- band made out thedeed, and she supposed Wallace made the cross on it. 2 ‘The complaint: tor her arrest on the charge of insanity was signed by her brother, John F. Donohue, the well.known ball player. . P POSTAL DEPARTMENT, Next Examination for Postoffice Clerks and Letter-Cairiers. Many applicants for positions in the Postal Department when they applied for information as to the time for the next examination under the civil-service rules were informed that there would not be any such examination until next February, and such were the advices up to withina week ago. Within a week advices have been received that there will be an exam- ination for clerks and carriers on the 3d ot next August, and that this will be con- fined to such as shall have filed applica- tions on or before the 23d of thecurrent month, The department in this City wiil try to have the examination postponed until the 7th of August, as that will be Saturday, and it is the only day on which the examiners can have the use of one of the public schools for the purpuse of hold- ing the examinations. ———————— Republiean Convention.
