STOREY JR., who for two years past has occupled the responsible position of general superintendent of the Valley road, has been appointed c¢hief engineer of the parent road, the Santa Fe, by President Ripley. The new position mean# Tiot only promotion and but recognition of most . valuable services to the Valley road from inception. Mr. Storey will have his headquarters in Topeka and succeed James Dun, who goes to Chicago to assume the position of consulting engineer of the entire Santa Fe system. Mr. Storey was born in this city and is a graduate of the Oakland High School and of the University of California. He is a member of the University Club, of the American Soclety of Civil Engineers and of the Technical Society of the Pacific Coast. He has been practically educated to the railroad business from early youth. In 1877-T8, just before he entered the University at Berkeley, he was with the Central Pacific as chainman and rodman, and with the same road in various capacity from 1881 to 1883. ¥rom 1883 to 188 he served the company as assistant engineer on construction. In 188-86 he was a member of the firm of Palmer & Storey, civil engineers. From 188 to 1893 he had charge of the survey and construction of the Southern Pacific Company, and from 1853 to 1895 he was with the United States Debris Commission as assistant engineer.

Dr. J. H. Crane of | Santa Ana, Orange County, was elected to succeed him soon after the first part of the political programme was com- | pleted. | The meeting was called by the Governor and tite place fixed was the Palace Hotel. | Ostensibly the convocation was the s | auel of the adjourned meeting of July when the Lunacy Commissioners and t | Agnews board of managers investigated the Chaffers case. The evidence taken on the 12th and 13th of July was transcribed and forwarded to the Governor, who has ed many of the Agnews positions | to political friends. Armed with a typewritten report he attended the meet- | ing yesterday morning and gave the di- rection to its proceedings. The report | flled with the investigating commission is | & most peculiar document and shows to what extent the Governor has gone to | get rid of Sponogle, who is called a moral leper.

A Distinguished Physician and Cali- fornia Pioneer. The funeral of Dr. J. R. Coryell, who died on Sunday, took place on Tuesday Rev. Mr. Parrish of the Church of the Ad- vent officiating. A delegation of eight members of the Society of California | Ploneers acted as pallbearers. After the solemn services the remains were incin- | erated at the Odd Fellows' crematory. John Rittenhouse Coryell was born in Zanesville, Ohio, in 1522, He was the son of John and Amy Ann Coryell (born Rit- tenhouse). He was descended on his| father's’ side from Revolutionary stock. They emigrated from Nice, France, dur- | ing the religious war and settled in | Pennsylvania. His grandfather was a | bosom friend of George Washington and | was an officer on his staff. On_the ma- | ternal side he was descended from the | Rittenhouse _family of Philadelphia, | which came from Holland and was of | noble ancestry. Dr. Coryell graduated | from the Medical College at Cincinnati, Ohio, and practiced medicine in the State | of Missouri before coming to California. | He was a pioneer, having come to this | State in 1849 by way of the isthmus. He was elected resident physician of the | State Marine Hospital by Governor Bigler and besides commanded a large outside practice. He retired from the practice of | medicine in the year 1863 and devoted his time principally to mining and land in- terests. In 1865 he married the eldest daughter of Eusebec Beleau, one of the oldest and best known pionéers of the | State. The first railroad charter granted by the State of California was granted to a corporation of which Lloyd Tevis, | renzo Sawyer and the late Dr. Coryell | were the incorporators, and was for a | | Railroad. He controlled large mining and property interests and was the owner of the Uncle Sam mine on the Comstock, which has since been subdivided and is now known as the Overman and the Sav- age, and one or two others. At one time he owned, jointly with the late Senator Hearst, 30,000 acres along the water front of Alameda County, extending from Oak- land to Alviso. He had been at different times a large property holder in San Francisco. He was an advanced thinker of the times and several of his mathematical problems have gone the round of the great universities both at home and abroad. His ?ueflca.l works have won the admiration of all those under whose no- | tice they have come and some of his earliest ventures were published in the | Golden Era, the first paper published in | the State. He was an inventor of much note and had many patent rights award- ed_him. Besides a widow, a family of two sons and two daughters survive him. — e———— Several beautiful paintings from this years Paris Salon at the Gump Art Gallery, 13 Geary st, o] 1 | “for all the money he had. | containing $200 placed the money that b | trustee to certain properties conveyed to railroad known as the Santa Clara Valley | - insertion fronts, fancy stripes and effects, regularly selling at §2 and plain skirt, plaited back, B- will g0 at . $1.00 Latest and best life portrait of Colonel Duboce in our window. dJubilee Toot Horns, 12-inch—5¢c each. - dJubilee Toot Horns, 18-inch—10c each. dubilee Toot Horns, 22-inch—I15¢c each.
