Yesterday letters were | decorated for tne occusion, and the g sent to auxiliaries throughout the State notifying them that on Thursday evening, August 11, the meeting would be held in Golden Gate Hall and earnestly request- ing them to send at least one delegate. Judge Joseph Sheldon, delegate from the American National Red Cross, will be present and will address those In attend- ance. The latter requests that each so- ciety make out a triplicate financial re- port, one of which will be sent to Charles Schieren, treasurer American National Red Cross, care of the Shoe and Leather Bank of New York city, and the other two to be retained here. The auxillaries are also asked to bring their report up to Au- gust 1 and send it to the State Associa- tion so that it may be read at the public meeting. State President Mrs. Willard B. Har- rington and Mrs. W. F. Merrill called on General Merrlam yesterday morning in regard to the proposed home for con- valescent soldiers who are unable to re- turn to duty owing to weakness. The ladles were courteously received by the commander, who assured them that he would lend every assistance in his power in carrying out the noble project. It is the intention of the presidents to call on Brigadier General Miller, post command- ant at the Presidio, and ascertain whether their soclety could use a house in the Presidio for that purpose. In the event that there is none vacant it is the pur- pose of the soclety to rent a house just outside the lines and fix it up completely. The Oakland Red Cross has volunteered to ald the local society in every way. It {s thought that the plam will be in opera- tion within a few days. J. R. Johnson, of 1530 Guerrero street, has offered to take an ice plant to Ma- nila which will turn out seven tons daily if the society will stand half the expense of trausportation. He also agrees to give the Red Cross half the amount of ice turned out and a half Interest in the lant. As the offer is a generous one r. Johnson will be asked to visit the State headquartels and the project will be discussed. Among_the large donations received by Mrs. McKinstry of the State society yes- terday was 1002 caps from Antioch and sixty-four socks, seventy-six handker- chiefs, thirty-eight sheets, 185 pillowslips, three boxes of fruit, three boxes of books and nine sets of pajamas from the resi- dents of West Side, Santa Clara County. A bill of $300 was pald yesterday by the State secretary, Mrs. Dimond, for identi- fication medals which were distributed among the thirteen Eastern regiments that have come to this city. The soclety expects to be relmbursed for its outlay from the Governors of the various States represented. mons ready to deliver to his devoted flock. The oceasion will no doubt be made memorable by the twin celebration, to- gether with the pr of Rev. J. Leon- ard Levy of Ph phia, who will par- ticipate in the services in honor of the anniversaj THEY OBJECT TO DOUBLE TRACKS MISSION PROPERTY OWNERS VS. SOUTHERN P CIFIC. The Former Contend That the Pres- ent Line Should Be at Once Ten representatives from the Mission Improvement Clubs appeared before the Street Committee of the Board of Su- pervisors yesterday to enter protest against the granting to the Southern Pa- cific Company of the right to lay double tracks on the route now traversed by the company from the Townsend street depot to Ocean View. A. B. Maguire and Eu- gene Sulllvan, who acted as spokesmen for the committee, said that the company had no legal right to use the streets now traversed by the company. They con- tended that the company, instead of being ranted the privilege asked for, should be compelled to remove the present single track and run its line along the bay shore in conformity with the terms of a fran—{ chise granted several ars ago. It was represented that the use of the present tracks caused serious deterioration in property values along the line and that a double "track system would make the property almost valueless, Tlme railroad company was not repre- gented at the meeting and the committee decided to take the matter under advise- ment. The question of removing the turntables at the intersection of Geary and Kearny streets and Post and Montgomery streets, on the ground that they are pub- lic_nuisances and dangerous to the life and limb of pedestrians. was also con- sidered. The Market Street Railway Company, through Manager Vining, sent a communication to the committee, prom- ising that if the turntables were allowed to remain the company would, in the event of the city paving up to the unoffi- clal grade on which the turntables are now gul)t, defray all the expenses of re- paving that portion of the streets affect- ed when other terminal points were se- cured.

Long Fight Promised. The express and transportation com- panies that have refused to pay the war tax Imposed by the Government and com- pelled their patrons to pay it at the rate of 1 cent on every receipt and bill of lading have recelved their first set-back by one of the courts in Chicago. Several of these companies In the East, as Wells- Fargo has here, decided to make a stand against paying the tax, and in New York and Chicago actions were brought against them. The merchants of this clity de- cided to take similar steps, which caused Wells-Fargo's people to squirm. An armistice for a short period of time was announced by the merchants until their officers o6uld learn if the cases men- tloned were being pushed on their merits, or likely to be decided soon. Yesterday Manager Valentine of the express company sent the following letter to the express company: AN FRANCISCO, July 2, 1898. oclation — Gentlemen: Ac- knowledging your letter of to-day, 1 shall be pleased to give you any Information that comes to me, and will begin by saying that I have this moment received a telegram from Chicago saying that the decision of the court there is against the United States Express Company. 1 will keep you advised of any information. Yours truly, J. J. VALENTINE. CHICAGO, July 28.—Judge Tuley of the Circuit Court to-day ruled in favor of the shippers In the test case brought by the Illinois Manufacturers’ Association, granting a writ of mandamus compelling the United States Express Company to accept for transportation packages for shipment without the payment of 1 cent in excess of the regular rate. The case will be appealed by the defendants. The court held that it was not within the domain of the shipper to issue the bill, and that the law expressly provides that the person issuing the receipt shall affix the stamp. Three million dollars an- nually is the estimated sum which the expreéss companies will have to pay in case the opinion is sustained by = the higher courts. L.OS ANGELES, July 28.—The Attorney General to-day instructed the District At- torney in the matter of prosecuting the express companies for refusing to stamp or accept unstamped packages. He says: ““It is not a violation of the revenue act for a carrier to refuse to accept mer- chandise for shipment. The penalty ac- crues if goods are accepted for shipment and the carrier fails to issue a bill of lading or manifest. It is criminal if the carrier Issues a_ bill of lading or mani- fest without the stamp. 5ro.<ccuuon should not begin unless the laws of the United States are violated. e A CHAMPION SWIMMER.
