To-day Mr. spondent. The issue is, therefore, cieariy set forth, and as it is not likely that there will be any more candidates irom this district vpoliticians are perfectly safe in flicging 10 one camp or the other. It is now very clear that Mr. Hilborn and W. R. Davis are working bhand in hand. I: is also as clear that up to this time no alliance has been made between Dr. Pardes and Mr. Metealf, though poli- ticians are daily expeciing that such a combination will be formed. The situation of the contest for the nomination for Governor has not materi- ally alter d since the failure of the at- one of the two men should withdraw, Both candidates have men in the field each 1s making un active cin tor Perkins expiessed determinaiion ence for eitler man as encouraging him 1o go shead, and according to their friends each is aining in strength daiiy.

Mr. Davis was first meationed for the place, butdid not deciare himseli ull last Saturday, when he pubiished an official declaration of his position. Dr. Pardee did the same thing about two weeks ago, and so, in truth,was the first man to say what he wanted.

A GHASE UNDERGROOND. Berkeleyans Adopt a Novel Method to Find the Length of a Tunnel, A Cat and a Dog With a Lantern on His Tail Used to Make Investigations. BERKELEY, Oct. 22 —Beneath Ashby avenue in South Berkeley there is a curi- ous tunnel, formed by the sinking of tne earth used to fill in the sewer. dam on the :urface bas remained firm and the distance between it and the earth bas gradually increased with each rainy sea- son until itis now about two feet in dia- | meter. South Berklevans want the tunnel filled in, and at the next meeting of the Fourth Ward Improvement Club the fea-ibility of the proposed improvement will be con- sidered. A committee of citizens have been mak- | ing investigations in regard 1o the size of the tunnel. It was supp sed to exiend from Telegraph avenue toShat:uck avenue und to determine is length a novel ex- periment was resorted to. A cat was placed in the Telegraph avenue opening of the tunnel. A dog with a miner's lantern tied to bis tail was then turned ioose alter her. With a fierce velp the subterranean chase began. The flickering lantern disappeared in a few minutes and darkness and silence prevailed. Tue dog returned inavout half an hour, The com- canine’s absence that he must have trav- eled as far as Shztiuck avenoe. Whether |the cit succeeded in making a success- ful exit or whether it was vanquished by luciterous Fido in a'fear!ul suvierranean conflict will only be learned when the Su- perintendent of Streets digs away the macadam to fill in ihe tunpel. —————— UNDER THE X-RAY, Fallmer's Bullet Surgeons. OAKLAND, Oct. 22—By means of an X ray (he buliet that Clara Fallmer shot into herself two months ago, in the hope that it would end ber life, was located to- night. For several weeks the girl has suffere2 great pain from the builet, but all ordi- nary metbods to locate it failea. The prisoner refused several times to allow herseif to be su: jected to the X-ray, but the pain beeame 50 great that she was at length induced to yield. This evening Clar; Located by bstain irom any expression ot prefer- | ihe meantime Alameda County is | i for the American n Francisco poli- | The maca- | | Dr. J. . Fearn. Dr. Fearn Jr., Dr. Buteau and Dr. Fisher exposed the girl to the powerful ray. After a few seconds the bullet coula be distinctiy seen, lying b>- hind the fourth rib and about one inch Irom the inner corner of the shoulder- biade. Itisabout an inch and a hal: be- low the surface of the back. The virl consented 10 aliow the doctors to remove the bullet to-morrow morning on their promis2 to give Ler chlorotorm. It was an interesting operation, but Ciara Fallmer was quite cheerful and talked jokingly with the doctors, very un- like a young girl who was held to answer a few days ago for the murder of her lover. There has been some doubt us to whether she would live through her trial, but the doctors say that with the bullet out of the way the internal wounds will soon heal. ‘Tne giri did not appear toexperience the leust inconvenience under the operation. She is of a very slim buiid and Ler boues are not very generously clothed with flesh, and all the bones in that portion of the back and left shoulder exposed to the ray could be plainly seen.

PRAIST FOR OUR SHIPS | Congressman Hilborn Speaks Highly of the War Vessels Built Here. fThe California Camera Olub Gave Its j Eighty-Ninth Illustrated Lecture | at Metropolitan Temple. The eighty-ninth illustrated lecture of { the California Camera Club was held in | Metropolitan Temple last night and | called out a large number of people. The | feature of the evening was a lecture by ! Conzressman Hilborn, who represents the Third District, on *“The New Navy.” | The lecture was an interesting one and | was illustrated by the Camera Club, | which projected the pictures of the vessels | of the United Statesnavy on a large screen on the stage. Mr. Hiltorn paia a great tribute to the | American navy. and spoke words of vraise mechanics and espe- | cially for those of the Pacific Coast, whose work excelled that of all others in the world. *The American ships to-day,'” said Mr. | Hiiborn, “‘are the best war vessels in toe | world, and the best ships of the American | navy were built at the Union Iron Works | of San Francisco. It is the unamimous verdict of the officers of the navy that for exceilence of workmanship and beauty of finish Scoit’'s vessels are unequaled.” [Great applause.] The speaker said that the great want of the navy to-day is more fighting ships like the battle-ships and torpedo-bouts. He compared the number of vessels in our navy to those of Enzland, France and Japan, ana said that whiie our vessels are better they were much fewer in number. The modern warships were as yet experi- mental, as they had never been tried in | war, and their ecflicacy would never be known until they were put 10 the test. “We have the best runs, but we have no powder,”’ continued Mr. Hilborn, “or sather we have justenough to ftire one Fourth of july saiute from all of our bat- tle-ship=" By means of the pictures the speaker ehowed the progress made in the art of shipbuilding. The only two faulty ae- | signs in the navy were those that were | sent from England. The pictures of the Oregon, Indiana and Massachusetts were snown. “They were built from the same | plans,” said the speaker, “but the Scotts | got more speed out of the Oregon and more horscepower than did the Cramps, who buiit the other two vessels.’’ All of the war vessels bullt at the Union | Iron Works were shown on the screen and | praised highiy and when the piciure of | Irving M. Scott was shown there was | great app.ause. Professor Graeber’s Mandolin Club ren- | dered some nice musicduring the inter- | mission. Tne pictures shown by the | Camera Club were excellent. MEYERS IS NOT DEAD, The Case Will Be Again Put on the Calendar of Judge Dunne’s Court for Trial. The police have arrived at the con- clusion that Bernard Meyers, the jeweier, is not dead, and the case will be replaced on the calendar in Judge Dunne’s court this moraing. it was saspected that Mevers was not desd, and yesterday Attorney Mack, who represented the defendant, was called be- fore Chief Less and asked (0 explain. He said that a pawnbroker named Mannie Levy on Ellis street, who had engaged nim todefend Meyers, had told him tnat Meyers had oren sent to Arizona and had died there. He told Hinkle and the case was dismissed. The Cuief detailed Detectives Bee and Harver to call upon Levy and ask him for an explanation. All Levy could say was that ne met Henry Brown, a drummer, who told him Meyers was dead. He so informed Mack, and thai was all he knew about it. The Chief will ask the District Attorney to repl .ce the case on ihe calenuar for trial, and if Meyers is notderd and fails to appsar when it is ealled in court his bonds of $1000 will be declared forfeited. e e e Hobart’s Condition Hopefu', Atalate hour last night the condition of Walter Hobart remained unchauged for the worse sinee the eritical surgical operation to which hesubmitte! several days ago in nis apartments at the Palace Motei, the order and reorts were con- | Green of tne Colusa GOAST EDITORS BLECT OFFICERS A Business Meeting Last Night of State Press Association. T, B. Daniells of the Alameda Argus Is the New President. National Delegates Chosen and a Final Pleasure Fxcursion Set for To-Day. The ninth annual meeting of the Cali- fornia Press Association was held last night at the Occidental Hotel. About sixty membérs were present dur- ing the three bours’ se-sion, which was devoted to an address by Professor Ber- nard Moses of B rkeley upon “The Func- tion of the Press in a Republic”’; to re- ports by retiring officers; to the election of new members, new officers and delezates; and finally to an impromptn speech by W. H. Mills, an honorarv member of the association, who sugrested what with properly concented effort, bised on experis ence with far more expensive exhibits, could be accomplished for $50.000 in ob- taining for California an adequate, su- perior and convincing exhibit at the Paris Exposition 1n 1990, ‘The treasurer’- report showed total re- ceipts for the vear to have been $2092 9); total expeditures. $1224 97, and a baiance on hana of $1767 o A corlial 1nvitation was received from the Press Club ex ending to the memb-rs of the association the privileges of the club during their stay in this city. Tue foliowing active journalists were eiecte | to membtership in t e associat on C. J. Owen of the San Jose Mercury, J. P. Baumgartner of the Riverside Reflex, Greorge W. Stuart of the W. 8. 0'Brien of the Yuba Ci y Independ- ent, Ben M. Maddox of the Visalia Time, J. Henry Gias of the Alameda Arzus, W. . D-wey of the Lemoore Leaderand John W. Shot of the Fresno Republican. Upon the call for nominations for prasi- dent, H. M. Ha-kell of the Pomona Progress was named, but deciined to run, and J. B. Daniells of the Alameda Argus was nominated and uuan mously elec ed. Mr. Haskell was then re-clected to the vice-presidency. W. D. Pennycook of the Chronicle was re-clected secreta and wiitiout opposition, G. M. Francis of the Napa Register was elected treasurer. The vote on nominees for the executive committee resuited as follows, the seven bein: declared elected: Rajeigh Barcar of Vacaville, 31; Charles F. Mont- gomery of Antioch, 30; E. V. \iilis of Sacramento, 30; F. M. Swasey f Redding, 29; B. L:mmon of Santa Rosa, A. Filcher Auburn, 19; W. Brown of Martine > B. Dewey of Hanfo-d, 17; Dur McPherson of Santa Cruz 14; J. H. Duncan of Woodiand, 13; W. 8. Green of Colusa, 12; H. Z. Osborane of Los Angeles, 11; H. H. Richmond of Auburn, 9. Ruleigh Barcar of Vacaville, who had been a delegate 1o the l»<t convention of the Natlonal Editorial P.es« Association, when cal.ed upon for a report of wha: was accomplished by it, said that practically noitin: was done. It had been a pleas- ant occasion socially, but there were so muny wild-eyed thesrists present that the convention was kept busy in restraining their flights. Tne assembly was much too large and was incapable of doing what 1t might have done vecause poorly repre- sentative of the best thought of the differ- ent States. Alter this speech it was deemed advisa- ble, less exp-nsive and more effective to send to the next meeting of the National Editorial Association, to te held in Den- ver, Colo., iewer but more aciive delegates than in former years. Accordingly the nuniber was cut down irom eight, nclud- ing wives, 10 two, inciuding wives. W. 8. Sun and A. B. Lem- mon of the Santa Rosa Republican were th n elected delegates, w C. F. Mc- Pherson of ihe Santa Cruz tinel slter- nate for Green and C. F. Montgomery of the Autioch Ledzer alternate for Lem- mon. Expenses :n the sum of $200 each were allowed the:ze two delegates. A committee, composed of Messrs. Filcher, Osborne and Lemmon, was a pointed to draw up resolutions thanking atl those 10 whom the association was in- debted and gratetul for recent favors inci- dent to its present meeting with its social teatures. A standing vote of thanks was also given to E. B. Willis, the popular re- tiring president.
