Huntington Will in All Likeli- | hood Be the Supreme Power in the Southern Pacific Company Here. — Notwithstanding the secrecy maintatned by the Crockers at this end of the South- ern Pacific Company’s line and the close- ness with which Speyer keeps his lips shut at the other end, it is generally ad- »d in the big yellow building on Mont- | Crocker Interest gomery street that the | will soon exist only as a memory of the past and that Huntington will in trutn | be the Southern Pacific. The report that the has been made and that the price by Speyer was $13,000,00 is considered very premature.

He said that if through faulty construction it was made to appear in the resolution that they had been dropped from the department the mistake would be rectified. Upon the second point he held out no assurance. The Board of Iiducation, he explained, considered that the position of head of department had come to be little more than honorary as there were no dis- tinetive responsibilities or duties attached to it. This he expressed as his opinion, but said he would advise the discharged heads to get together as a body and formulate a certain line of duties other than their regular obligations as teachers in the department and then memorialize the board to re-establish the positions.

They argued that they were responsible not only to the School Department of San Francisco but as well to the faculty of the State University. The departments credited by the State University and it was obligatory upon them to see to it that the teachers in the departments of which they had supervision brought their classes up to the standard set by the State institution. They claimed that this responsibility alone was worth the $15 per month which was added to their monthly stipend. They could not argue profitably, how- ever, in face of the opinion of the Board of Education and finally decided to fol- low the advice of thelr superintendent and memorialize the board for the re- establishment of the position and the repayment of the $15 per month. — e ——— Oriental Imports.

The O'Kane Residence Narrowly Es- capes Total Destruction. The residence of W. D. O’'Kane at 2119 Broadway had a narrow escape from total destruction by fire yesterday afternoon, shortly after 2 o'clock. The flames orig- inated on the roof and were caused by a spark from a chimney. Before the fire could be subdued the entire top of the structure had been destroved, and the damage will amount to several thousand dollars. 5 As soon as the fire was discovered an alarm was turned in from box 26 at Fiil- more street and Pacific avenue. The Fire Department was quick in responding, but the blaze had already gained considerable headway, and much difficulty was experi- enced in extinguishing it, as the fire was confined between the roof and the ceiling of the upper story. Much damage was done to the interior of the structure by water and articles of considerable value were ruined. W. D. O’'Kane, owner of the house, is one of the proprietors of the Union Transfer Company in this city. s S e s To Be Sent Back to Texas.

United States Attorney Coombs yester- | | day prepared a complaint to be filed to- | day in the United States Circuit Court | asking for the ejectment of the California | Drydock Company from Mission Rock, in San Francisco Bay. The United States | Government wants the rock to be used as a coaling station. The complaint recites | that the patent issued by the State of California in 1870 is valid only as to what- ever lands may have been ‘at that time under the soverelgnty of the State, but | contends that no State patent can hold as against the United Statesin the case of any islands or other realty over which | the United States has sovereignty. Mr. Coombs said yesterday that it had | been held by the courts that the United States is entitled to the islands in the bay of San Francisco and to all the tide lands in the State and lands that are covered and uncovered by the {ebb and flow of tides reaching | these lands at ordinary high tides. All | lands below ordinary high tides belong to | the State. There will be two contests in the trial of the case—one as to what the area of Mission Rock was at the time it was | filled in and whether it consisted of a [jumn,; rock or whether the lands about it were above ordinary high-water mark. | Mr. Coombs will also present this ques- tion, as to whether tide and submerged lands, the title to which is vested in the State’ by reason of its sovereignty, can pertain to those tide lands which sur- | round islands where the State has no | sovereignty. | _The lattér is a new | ment by the court an | much interest. oint, and its treat- counsel will be of Does he drink?
