LE FOR s S | REASONABLE FIGURE IS PAID | LT STETSON MADE THE BIDDING EXTREMELY LIVELY. i e 2 | Adolph Sutro's raliroad, the machine that brought the Market-street Railway Company to its knees and reduced all fares to the beach to 5 cents, has pa into the hunds of the Sutter-str way Company. Yesterday morning the Suiro road was placed on sale in Judge | Coftey’s court. After spirited bidding for | half an hour R. F. Morrow, president of the Sutter-street road, triumphed, and | the sale of the property was confirmed to | him for thegsum of $215,000. About $116,000 of this amount will be used for the pur- pose of liquidating the debts of the Sutro road, however, which were assumed by Mr. Morrow by express agreement when he purchased the road. ‘When the matter of the sale of the road was taken up by Judge Coffey yesterday morning President J. B. Stetson of the Californi: treet Rallway Company put in a bid of $178,000, an increase of $19,000 over | the original bid made by the Sutter-street | company. Attorney, Friedenrich, who | represented Mr. Morrow, objected to the bid on the ground that it was not made lin good faith, and intimated that al- | though Mr. Stetson was the president of | the California-street company, he was | bidding for the road on behalf of the | Market-street company. | | of showing that the interests of the es- tate would suffer if the road fell into the hands of the Market-street company. Thomas Magee, the well-known real es tate agent, said that in his opinion an op. position line to the beach should be main- tained if the interests of the Sutro estate were to be considered, and said that he believed the estate would profit if the Sutter-street company came_into possession of the road on a bid $0,000 below that offered by any other company. | E. B. Pond testified that he offered the | road to Mr. Stetson, but that he refused | to bid. Hence the beliet that he repre- sented the Market-street company during thé sale proceedings in court. After Mrs. Merritt had testified that in her opinion the Callfornia-street company had re- fused transfer connections during the building of the road, Mr. Stetson was called to the stand. He confessed that ! he had once asked H. E, Huntington why | he did not buy the road, and had also | conterred with Superintendent Lynch of | the Markeat-street company. Mr. Stetson | then lost his temper. He sald that he had | made a bid for the road and was prepared to pay the amount offered and saw no reason why he should be catechised. R. H.

THe board empowered him to emplcy one at a salary of $1000 a year.

RUSSIAN EXILE HAS FEARS FQR HIS LIFE Paul Malnicoff Troubled by a Noc- turnal Visitor in His Residence on Natoma Street. Paul Malnicoff, a Russian, who was banished from his native land to Siberia about twelve years ago, and who later escaped to San Francisco, has fears for his life. He claims that some mysteri- ous nocturnal visitor, whom he suspects of being a subject of the Czar, climbs over his roof nightly with the Intention of assassinating him when the opportunity presents itself. The trespassing stranger, he ‘says, carries a dark lantern, the rays of which he sends through the skylight and into the room occupied by Malnicoff and his wife. Twelve years ago Malnicoff was a stu- dent in one of the Russian colleges. He exercised the right of free speech and in- | curred the displeasure of the Russian ruler. His exile to Siberia followed and he remained there until four years ago, | when he made his escape and came to | this city. Since his arrival here his peace of mind has been disturbed by several queer oc- currences. On one occasion he became suspicious of food which was served to him in a certain house and refused to 2at it. Instead he fed the stuff to two dogs, both of which died a short while after. ward. Since he has been residing at his present address, 1001% Natoma street, noc: turnal visits have distressed Malnicoff t such<4n extent that he now sleeps with a rifle at the head of his bed and threat- ens to shoot the intruder when he again makes his appearance. The exile believes that some one, loval to the Czar, who has discovered his identity, intends making a target of him to satisfy Russian jlstice. b A S, Booming Our Products.
