Nothing escapes Selna, and at tne bat he is a slugger. But the baseball public mustn’t think that this game is going to be all one-sided. Nothing couid be more erronecus.

E. Hunt- | ington he said in answer to many ques- | tions: “No; the Santa e will not build from [ Los Angeles to San Pedro nor did I look I over ihe ground when I was there. “No; we will not build a branch down to the Grand Canvon, but we would like to see one built. There are some men in- terestec in_that project. W. O. O'Neil, Mayor of Prescott, is at the head of the en erprise. He sccompanied us on our visit recently to the Grand Canvon.

Thbe company is verfectly willing (o raise its rates so high on its steamer line as to make them practicaily vrohibitive, if rival does not enter the field ani es.ablish a line of ships bstween the two por By reason of its contiguity, Portland will always get the major share of the trade, and, therefore, our fight is not"with them, but we want the balance of the trade to come here instead of going to St. Louis, Jhicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis and other Eastern points. Itis purely a maiter of self-preservation.” It was further explained that the twenty subscriptions of $3000 each already made | are conditional, inasmuch as it is under- stood that the merchants of this city must ceneraily take an interest in the proposed line. Itis believed that the line will be under way as early as November 1, as the Aisska craze is about over for the s2ason and plenty of vessels ars to be had. By spring there will doubtless be pienty of them to be secured. The moneyed interests are aroused to action. This is evidenced by the fact that the merchants’ committee announced yesterday that more than $75,000 has al- Teady been subscribed 1o establish the yrop sed line of steamers north ana south. Itis probab'e that the projectors will first turn their attention to the Alaska trade. Temporarily craft will have to be le nio- the local ment ships manufactured in yards will be put on the run, The common opinion expressed by ship- owners ana other men interested ia tue enterprise is that the Alaska line, wiith headquartersat San Francisco, will Lave to be a throngh line. For this reason it is haruly pos-ible that any of the steamers will be sent to St. Michael, Juneau and Dyea by way of Pueet Sound. This will have the desired effect of making San | Francisco the headquarters of the Alaskan | trade. There is little encouragement in the Mexican trade, but the outlook for the | Central American countries is muc, bet- ter., If Mex co ever redeems hLerseif in the world of finance sbe will take her piace on the list of those to whom first-class facili- ties for trade are to pe given. A. C. Rulofson of Baker & Hamilton states that the larger commercial estab- lishments of the city have already p'edged about $75,000 to the undertaking, and this emount is more than enough o insure its succese. He has prepared an interesting schedule of freight rates bearing on the underiaking, which sbows that they are here nearly double what they are on the Atlantic seaboard, where he calls the com- petition ‘legitimate.’”” He further made the following statement: The commitiee particularly wish to state that this line is not intended to be hostile to tne transportation com panies now operating, nor do they care Lo discredit the statements that the ireight cannot be handied on less than the existing rates, but simply wish to demonsuate for themselves whetner Ly the economical adminisiration of an independent line not burdened with unnecessary expense they cannot earn enough to defray the actua! expenses of Carrying the freights without the - THE NEGATIVE |President Ripley of the | Santa Fe Tells What l He's Not Here For.

Close of the Annmal Conven- tion of the Dairymen’s Association, The Proposed Free Market Was Also Favorably Commented Upon. At yesterday’s session of the California Darrymen’s Association one thing was made evident—the dairymen of this State are almost unanimously in favor of a dairy school standard. Since the cpen- ing of the convention there has been a | general expression of opinion regarding he making of butter in the State, and ise the standard of this important product of California has predominated at this and other sessions of the dairymen. In a paper on this matter by Mrs. E. W. Steele entitied, “A Plea for Dairy Schoois,’”” she said: A dairyman should study to make bis busi ness a success through skil. Keep it out of the hands of ignora.ce. Keep up the stand- ard already reached, and if possible raise it. The finesse of aafrying requires tbe nicest manipulation. It needs meu of ability in the use of chemicals, of judgment ripened by ex- verience in all its various details. We all know these things.

It would require more years of experimenting, spoiling butter and wasting cheese to replai them. We cannotafford this now. The ma ket supply goes on. and when it is not obtain- able at home it comes from abroad. Atter the reading of this paper there were more expressions of opinion, and as aresult the board of regents will probably be petit‘oned to create a department of dairy instruction similar to that estab- lished in other State colleges in the Uni- versity of California. The meeting was then thrown open for the discussion of a free market, to which all were favorab'e. The annual report of the secretary for the past year spoke of tne dairymen’s bill, vetoed by the Governor last year; of the butter-makers’ convention helu at Owatonna, Minn., jast February, wherein California’ butters secured 9514 points, the dsirying ness?

All the efforts of the police to capture James G. Bennett, the would-be mur- derer and suicide who escaped from the Recelving Hospitai Wednesday nignt, have been unavailing. The police are satistied that Bennett was driven off in a hack that was waiting for the purpose, ana are bending their ener- gies to find the hackman. A clew was obtained yesterday that may lead to something definite. Dennett has friends in San Mateo County and it 1s be- lieved that he was driven rhere Wednes- day night. This suspicion is confirmed by the fact tbat some policemen saw a hack being driven furiously along the 8an Brunoroad late Wednesday night. Bennett's divorced wife is rapidly re- covering from the wounas in her neck, in a week she will be able to be atout again. The fact that Bennett has escaped has been carefully kept from her, as it might make her nervous and retara her recovery. A policeman still guards the building, 14 McAllister street.

An 0ld-Timer in the Profession Formerly Associated With Noted Actors. Robert J. Preston died at his home, 104 | Bernard street, yesterday morning, after L an illness of three weeks. Tke causs of | his death was congestion of the lungs. Mr. Praston was born in Cork, Ireland, some sixty-five years ago, and when quite a boy came to this country to carve out | his fortune. Soon after reaching the R United States he came to San Francisco, and the greater part of his life has been spent here. Away back in the sixties, California Theater was first opened, Mr. Preston accepted a position as prompter and had been engaged in the theatrical | business ever since, and is perhaps the best known and most respected member of the profession on the coast. During the period that the noted tra- gedians, Join McCullough and Lawrence Barrett, were managing the Calilornia Theater Mr. Preston retained his position and was on terms of intimacy with his manage:s. He also knew and at various times took parts in the companies of Booth, Whealey and Mayo. An expert penman, in the early days before the typewriter was known, Mr. Preston was often employed as cooyist by many of the well-known actors, and a number of the older plays which were favorites with the theater-goers of years gone by were copied by him from the original manuscripis. Amongz other positions of trust which he occupied at different times Mr. Preston was stage manager of the Metropolitan | Theater. Of Jate vears he had given up his work in the theatrical line and de- voted his time to literature. He was a frequent contributor to tne papersand wrote a number of poems. His pen-draw- ings are considered very zood. His widow, two sons, aced 22 and 18, and a daughter, aged 25, survive Mr. Preston. The luneral will be from Druids' Hall Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, and the services will be conducted by Norma Grove of the Druids, of which organization the deceased has been a member thirty vears. He was also a member of Golden Gate Lodge of the B. P. O, E.,, and that order will attend the funer The body will be buried in the Maso Cemetery. NEW TO-DAY.
