There is at present but one road between the county seat and the entire coast side of this count. the road that leads from Half-moon B by way of San Mateo and Belmont. Ty present road, from Woodside to the sume. mit of the mountains, has a grade vary- ing from six to_twelve feet, and frowm the summit to La Honda from five tg seven feet. ‘The new road will be on thig side of the mountain of a uniform grade of four and'a half feet and on the other side of three and a half feet to the hun. dred, and at its highest point will be 905 feet lower than the highest point in the present one, It was shown that the nine miles of new road will save from one to one and a half hours In time over the same distance of the old road. ome 0f e largest property own: unwilling to grant rights of way, & s o them are .

HONEST SPORTSMEN FAVOR THE NEW LAW Ingleside’s Gamblers Denounced by Advocates of Sport. DELAY IN THE POLICE COURT Attempting to Fight the Operation of the Ordinance With Absurd Techmicalities—Jury Trials in Every Case—The Police Watching | fore, alone in their struggle for immoral- | ve | asked yesterday t Poslro ms. Ed Corrigan and his motley crew of gamblers, who have ruined racing in this | city, have no defense for the evil of Ingle- side except the uncertain chance that the prohibitory ordinance shall be declared illegal. ‘When the fight to destroy the nest of blacklegs at the track began legitimate lovers of horse racing, as a high-class sport, were fearful that the destruction of the gamblers migl jure honest sport. These sportsmen w that the atro- clous game, as Co! and his fellows have developed it, t be completely eliminated before legitimate racing can find again a place. These men realize that the thieving tout has replaced the breeder of good horses; that the ‘‘skate’ has replaced the stake horse; that an hon- est sport, with honest chances, has retro- graded into sure-thing gambling. Legitimate sportsmen therefore, men who are personally and deeply Interested in honest, high-class horse racing, are adding their praise to that of the press, pulpit, merchants and artisans for thc suppression of the great vice of Ingle- side. The gamblers must stand, there- ity against the law. The courts are now the only refuge of the blacklegs. The opinions of legitimate sportsmen were well set_forth last Saturday in the Breeder and Sportsman, the representa tive newspaper of its class in the West. | This paper denounces the game of Ingle- | side in unmeasured terms and takes the position that honest horsemen should | welcome the death of a dangerous, im- | city and the safes moral game that has been driven out of every other community. The Breeder hz nothing but words of praise and encou agment for horse racing honestly con | ducted, but for gambling game whic corrupts and blights the community there | are only words of condemnation. The |3 Breeder declares that honest horsemen | A honest sports have it now in their| OWer, ce the beginning of the fight against Ingleside, to kill the great evil or | refuse to move until the debasing game | has been removed. | such a source will carry great weight. In the courts the gamblers are finding | v little encouragement. In the Polic ourts they are fighting for delay. juries be drawn b\v’ the Sheriff, but the request was denied. They will receive a hearing to-day, and in every instance demand jury trials. The Superior Court will not act until Friday, when the application for a writ of injunc- | tion will be heard. { The way of the Ingleside transgressors through the courts does not seem to lie| over the smoothest bitumen, but, on the | contrary, the road grows rougher as it advances. There appears to be a point | in the matter of smashing laws in this | city when that business gets a setback, and the point and the setback have a parently come along. When the racetrack cases came up in the two Police Courts| at 10 o’clock vesterday morning the at-| torney for the defendants began the to-| be-expected sparring for delay. A juryJ trial was requested, and the jurors must be impaneled by the Sheriff instead of the Chief of Police. The police officers had | lawlessly broken into the property of the racing people and interfered with the very | proper, innocent and lawful amusement of | the persons engaged in selling pools, and | had ‘;flarchml to and fro upon that prop- | erty intimidating the possible purchasers of those pools. All this savage exercise | of a function clearly not within their | right, intimated Attorney Ach, for the| detendants, demonstrated an intense bias, | 2 fierce prejudice on the part of the Chief | of Police and his captains and officers. | Moreover, continued the lawyer, a police officer is financially responsible for an| arrest that fails of conviction—a remark- able revelation and one, if established by | judicial decislon, that will intimidate and | officially paralyze every peace officer in ity. ‘hilsnc zit‘h continued that the arrests were made in the presence of Chief Lees by police officers afllng wholly on what | alled ‘‘police evidence. lsT‘i’lc mattper first came into the field of judicial vision in Judge Mogan’s court. Attorney Ach, with his seventeen clients, stood at the bar and asked for a Sheriff- impaneled jury. The Judge took the quéstion under advisement till 11 o'clock, and the lawyer with his troop filed across the corridor into the Police Court of Judge Conlan. Here the same request, giving the same reasons, was made. The pros- ecuting attorney stated in return that such reason—bias and prejudice on the part of the arresting officer—could be jven in every case of arrest in this city. ?‘le then read section 230 of the Code of Civil Procedure, which is as follows: “When jurors are required in any of the Justices’ courts or in any Police or other inferior court, they shall, upon the order of the Justice or any one of the Justices where there {s more than one, or of the Judge thereof, be summoned by the Sher- iff, Constable, Marshal or police officer of the jurisdiction.” Judge Conlan quickly denied the motion, stating that he could see no reason why 2 Police Court jury should not be impan- eled in the usual manner—that is, by a police officer, and that no bias or preju- dice on the part of the arresting officer had been shown. The case of H. L. Jones, one of the de- fendants, was chosen for trial and the matter was continued till this morning by etonsent of the prosecution, when it | Wil be set for hearing. Mr. Ach and his party then crossed back into Judge Mogan's courtroom. Like his judicial brother over the way Judge Mogan denled the motion of the defense for a Sheriff jury in short order. In the latter court Attorney Ach asked Chief Lees if he was biased against the race- track either’ personally or in his official capacity. Lees denied that he had the least Erejudice against the defendantsand said the course he is pursuing is prompted only by duty and not by personal inter- est. He did not personally superintend the selection of jurors, but turned the work over to différent police captalns, so that the panel would come from differ- ent localities. The only instruction he ever gave for such selection was to get good men. The cases will come up this morning as in_the other Police Court.

By letter dated March 14, 1899, George W. Wilson, Commissioner * of Internal Revenue, notifies Collector John C. Lynch of the following important rulings: £ a customer buys from a wholesale dealer @ barrel of claret for lar use and the dealer bottles it, he must stamp the bottles be- fore deliver: 15 a barrel of claret for bar delivers it to him. It is use and the dea | @ wine that cannot be drawn from the barrel a bottle.at a time without stamping what is left, and if bottled all at once it must be securely corked. If he bottles this wine all at one time, the bottles to be uncorked as occa- fon requires, and the wine sold over the bar must stamp the wine when bottled. 3. A customer buys a tank of wine for bar use in order to obtain uniform wine and orders it bottled by the dealer and has it sent to him fifty or more bottles at a time, as occasion requires. wine is bottled. 4. A customer buys a tank of wine for bar se. If he comes to the dealer’s cellar and bottles it himself, furnishifg his own bottles. he must stamp the wine as it is bottled. The only case in which a bottle filled from a barrel is not taxable is where the bottle merely serves the purpose of a decanter, being filled from the barrel as occasion arises, the intent to sell by the glass being confirmed by the actual and constant use for that purpose. In cases where the entire contents of a barrel are transferred at one time into hottles, there to be retained for some time, the allegation that the wine Is ultimately to be sold by the glass cannot be accepted, and the bottles in such cases must be stamped according to law. —_——————— ‘Webster-Street Improvements.
