They will report their etary of War, ed for this work. The Government contemplates the ad- findings to the y whom they were de- 1a; dition to the defenses of this harbor of -eight high-power guns, varying from’ eight to sixteen inches, and of 128 12-inch mortars. At present tiere are but iwelve modern high power guns in posi- tion about ihe bay. ‘There zre here now, however, enough guns for a_reg nandle, and the visiting artillery officers leclare that San Francisco is already very rmidably protected. No appropriations have yet been made these new guns, nor is it likely that y will be supplied except in install- s covering a long period of years, the ann hey are made among the fortifications on the Atlantic and those on the Pacific. Tue scheme of improvements also in- | 1des the creation of two new artillery iments, making seven in all for the ed State Then one artillery regi- | 1t will be stationed near Pugei Sound | California will get another, while the ng five will be distributed along the Atlantic and gulf coasts. This board is to select sites for new batteries, with a view to the readjustment | of the present artillery forces all over the | United States, and to suggest the most | advantageous locations for additicnal guns and those that are to replace ihe ol :-timers, Rumor has it that when the change| comes the present unique state of affairs with artillery forces at Angel Island and niantry forces at the artillery station of t e Presidio will be changed. MRS. KNOX SURPRISED. he Sought a Divorce and Alimony, but the Facts Wers Against Her. Mrs. Mary A. Knox met wita a severe disapvointment in Judge Hebbard’s court yesterday. She pressed for a hearing of her suit for a divores from William Knox on the ground of desertion, and also in- sted that he should pay her $500 alimony t she figured out was due Ler, In response Knox, who is an engineer on one of the steamers plying between s port and Hongkong, charged that his wife had been unfaithful, and named John F. Madden as co-respondent. Mrs. Knox resented this aspersion on | her character. She and Madden acknowl- | cdged that they lived in the same house together for four months, but tbey in- sted that their relations were entirely nnocent. They had only three rooms, o bedrooms and & kiichen. She kept se for him, and he bought wearing ap- rel for ner. A different view of their relations was ziven by the testimony of Police Officer Henry A. Madden, a brother of the co- respondent. In commenting on the case Judge Heb- bard said it was contrary to human exp rience to believe that the relations be tveen Mrs. Knox and Maaden had been ylatonic. The law does not require actual proof of improper acts. In such matters | opportunity and probability are sufficient to esiablish the fact, 80, on the testimony of the piaintiff and her companion, she | must stand convicted of being unfaithful to her marriage vows. Knox was therefore given a divorce ou his cross-complaint, and was relieved from all respons:bilities for the payment of alimony and lawyers’ fees. - ORAZY FROM OVERWORK. Arthur W. Cecil Fires Two Shots His Father and One at His Nu:se. Arthur W. Cecil, a sienographer in Attorney Grove L. Johnson’s office, whiie temporerily insane from overwork, fired two shots from a rifle at his father early ay morning, and a shot at his fortunately without effect. t h at Monday night when he went to hi home a. 19 Belvedere street, he was nervous and irritable, and bis parents urged bim to take a vacation, but he re- fused. He got worse and Tuesday night a male nurse was employed to look afier bim. He resented the espionage of the nurse, and wou!d not remain in his room. Avout 2 o’clock yesterday morning he stealthily took a 38-caliber Marlin repeat- ing rifle from a cioset, and threatened to kill the nurse unless he left the house. The noise awakenea the other members of the family, and in the parlor the young man fired two shots, one ac bi father ana the other at the nurse. His father begged him to give up the rifle, but he left the bouse carrying it with him, after driving tuem all out and firing another shot. Word was sent to the O'Farrell-street station, a.4 Sergeant Christiansen and two men started out in search of the young man. He was jound about 5 o’clock yesterday morning by Policeman Ingham irying 1o batter in ithe door of a saloon at Sutter and Leavenworth streets. Ingham bad him taken to the Receiving Hospital in the patrol wagon, snd he was locked up in a pedded ce!l.” He will be taken before the Insanity Commissioners this morning. He hid the rifle 1n the panhandle of the To-aay the | larly Colonel Rd:ers, with the ble positions of vantags about this | made an extended in-pection t.ere | across | al appropriations being divided as | OW to proceed in acquiring the City Hall frontage is the ques- tion that now sugzgests itself to i the people of this city. Uader the complicated conditions by ¥ach chis city is at preseat rov- erned, between what was a consolidation law or chiarter and the multifarious le tive smendments injected intoit from time to time by the law-making power of the State, it is a problem of no easy solu- tion to arrive at the proper stepsto be taken to disposses the owners of the prop- ertv. Tie ceneral law as found in the Code of Civil Procedure, which was quoted in yes- | terday’s Caryand which covers the ground | from a legal standpoint of condemnation, is all right as far as it goos. But this by Do means solves the problem of securing the much-coveted land. | According to the provisions of the Code on emin nt domain the owners of prop- erty which has been condemued for pub- | lic use are entitled to and must have the price awarded tothem by the trial {jury in thirty days after final judgment is entered. This then to the people is where the snag lies in the present contemplated acquir- ing of this property. For in order to have the money in the city treasury to meet the demanis bonds must be issued to raise that money, and before such bonds are is- sued a special election for that purpose must be held and a two-third vote ob- tained before the measure would be car- riea. The bonds so issued wou!d run for forty years, with a proviso that a yearly tax would have to be levied to pay the inter- lest and provide a sinking fuod, which would in ail probability mean one-fortieth | of the amount called for by the bonds, { To get about this modus operandi the opinions of lawyers conversant witu the ins ana ouis of our complicated system were obtained in a brief manner from Joseph Leggett, Judge J. G. Maguire, H. N. Clement and Horace G. Platt, Joseph Leggetr, after look mto the problem for some time, suggested that a rndicate of responsible and public- spirited citizens might form themseives inioa commission and ascertain from the owners of Lhe property the terms of sale, and if a!l parties or the ma jority of them were willing to take a fair price for their holdings. The svndicate could bond the lana for, say, a year, agreeing to take the property on the conditions set forth. Tais would give the Surervisors an idea of how much money wouid be required to be raised on a bond issue, and with this information be- iore them an election could ve calied for that purpose, setting forth how much would be nceded and for what purpos=. Inthe mean ime, under an amendment to the Siate constitution adopied in 189. it requires a two-third vote of the people to authorize the issuance of such bonds. With this system, then, the money wouid be forthcoming at the proper time, and would ulso be available to meet the legal point in c=se a condemnation suit would have to be brought to oust any of the property owners who should refuse to sell at a fair valuation. Judge Maguire, who was present while Mr. Leggett was giving his views, coin- cided in this method of acquiring the much-coveted frontage of the City Hall. H. N. Ciement, who has given the sub- ject consideravle thought by reason of bis having drafted the law for the de- feated charter, as also for the one now in course of preparstion, expressed himselt as oeing in harmony with a portion of Mr. Leggett’s views, but with a change from a self-constituted syndicate to one appointed by the Supervisors iustead, as | it wouid, it for no other reason, assume that of a legal or zuthorized character. So far as condemnatory proceedings go Mr. Ciement is very dubious until the value ot the land is first asceriained. So doubtful is he of this that in the proposed new charter an estimate of what is in- tended to be used »s “‘public utilities” must be tirst ascertained by & commission appointed for that purpose. When this is done the bond issue gquestion is easily solved if the people wisn to vote for the obj ct tor which the money is to be raised by the issue. Horace G. Platt, who snccessfully car- ried several condemnation suits through courts for street purpo-es, coincided with his bro:her lawyer~. He 1s positive, how | ever, that the money must be paid within | thirty days arier the final judgment, and | in this brief period bonds could not be sold. Consequently an estimate of the expense attenaing the purchase must be had as one of the initiative steps before anytbing is done. Astocondemning the grouna he thought that would be the least difficult. To him the bond issue would be the most dfficult problem to be encountered. | THEY GOME FRON LL AND DALE Dairymen’s Annual Conven- | tion Will Open This | Morning. { Matters of Interest to Cattle-| Owners to Be Dis- cussed, The Dairy Inspection Eill, Which Was Defeated Last Year, Will Again Be Introduced.

This plan would have allowed a series of | years in which to meet losses and to look iuto ihe merits of the proposition of such destruction. In the Legislature the compensating feature was cut out and the appropriation reduced from $40,000 to $10,000 annualiy. To many dairymen this was acceptable, but to those whose herds were large and vossibly in great aanger from the ‘uber- culin testit was not, and, therefore, no greatinterest was aoused for its adop- tio: When it was made knowu by the Governor that he desired special argu- ments from dairy representatives there was a hasty catbering together of forces.
