BAN JOSE, Oct. 80.—The Board of Su- | pervisors this morning granted A. Green- inger a franchise for an electrio road on First street and the Alviso road to Alvi- 80. The price paid was $50. It gives him | the easterly twelve feet of the road from | the northerly city limits. Work s to com- | mence within six months and shail be | completed in eighteen months. This is | the franchise that was lald over by the | Board of Supervisors last Wednesday at the request of ex-Boss Rea, who is sup- | posed to have been working in the inter- | sts of the Southern Paclfic Rallroad. The ‘\’ute to-day was not unanimous, Supervis- | | \ | ors George E. Rea and F. L. Cottle op- posing the franchise. Those voting for it were Supervisors Austin, Roll and Stem. The efforts of business men are supposed to have brought about the change, as last Wednesday Supervisor Roll was the only one in favor of granting the franchise. The building of the road to connect Al- viso and San Jose is but the beginning | | of a large electric railway system. the improvements the Government ‘With is about to make at Alviso this will give San { | Jose a good water route with all coast points and a reduction in freights and fares. A proposition 1s also on foot to build | an electric road to Los Gatos by way of Rock motor road into an electric line. Train Wreck at Livermore. LIVERMORE, Oct. 30.—Two cars jumped the track near Livermore to- | night. They were being backed on to a | siding when' they were derailed.

A derrick was sent out and arrived there before midnight. There have been several railroad acei- | dents in this locality recently, but the | one to-night is the most severe of any. | One of the trainhands had a narrow es- | cape from death. He was standing near | the “track when the cars were deralled, but although knocked down he managed | to crawl a v fast enough to prevent the train running over him. Postal Clerks May Vote.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 30.—A dis- patch to the Times from a staff corre- spondent traveling eastward with the Twentleth Kansas Regiment states that a large number of the former privates of the regiment have revolted against their former superior officers and registered an emphatic declaration of independence and equality. The revolt came at Barstow, Cal, where the regiment arrived for breakfast at 10 o'clock in the morning. The men, who were hungry as wolves, found the eating-house doors barred and were told that they would have to walt for breakfast. Upon entering the tele- graph office one of the privates learned that thirty-five breakfasts had been or- dered in advance for the officers and an- | other private who peered through a rear window found the men who wore shoul- der straps already seated at tables eating. Immediately there was an assault upon the eating-house. Doors were broken in and the regiment swarmed through the | hall. When Colonel Metcalf attempted | to quiet the men he met with a storm | of abuse and several of the more ob | streperous ‘“citizens” threatened to do | him bodily injury. The men were finally | quieted by the bringing in of their break- | fast. After it was all over Colonel Met- calf went among the men and told them | that if there were to be any more second ]ts.bllcs the officers would wait until the ast. — 0il Company Fails. | HALFMOON BAY, Oct. 3).—The coal | oil company recently operated by one Hayward from Los Angeles and others on | the Holge ranch in San Mateo County has | abandoned the work of boring and is at- | tempting to remove the pipe and other | property belonging to the company.

ALBANY, N. Y., Oct. 30.—In his procla- mation designating November 30 as a day | of thanksgiving and prayer issued to-day | Governor Roosevelt s: “It is right | that we should give thanks for the pros- | for the way in which this great people | in the first flush of its mighty manhood | 1s moving forward to meet ls destiny and to do without flinching every duty with ‘which that destiny brings it face to face.” e e | | POLITICAL. e e [ ® -4 ® ® 9 [ [-d e ® [ 2 ® @ [ [ 3 [ ® { 1] [ 1] 0 ® L 1] It is the sacred duty of every Republican to give his loyal sup- port to his party nominees in this campaign and to cast his ballot for them on November 7. Unusual conditions prevail which mean that defeat now will work future disaster to our party. Granting everything that has been said in behalf of the Democratic nomines for Mayor, it still remains for Republicans to vote for Davis. No better man than he could have been chosen for the office. Ripe in commercial and political experience, of sterling integrity, Horace Davis will give to San Francisco an ideal administration. He is progressive, has intimate knowledge of the needs of the city and the executive ability in a marked degree to take charge of pro- jected public improvements and successfully execute them, being in every way peculiarly qualified for the position. 1y Republican, Horace Republicans have only to stop and consider the vital importance to our party of this election to give Horace Davis and his associates on the Repub- lican municipal ticket their stanch support. ticket there can be not the slightest excuse for any loyal citizen to ports were made by Mrs. M. H. Huston | refuse it his ardent support. Mr. Davis, above all others, is qualified to fill the office of Mayor. A resident of this city for a third of a cen- tury, he has been closely identified with its commercial, educational and political interests.

Unusual conditions prevail this year which demand the active support of every man who calls himself a Republican. It is an obligation he owes his party, and must not be repudiated. A vote for Horace Davis means an in- dorsement of the administration of President William McKinley. Further, I consider the personal attack on Mr. Davis by one of our oldest dailies an outrage which the proprietors know to be false, and which should be resented by the public.

Johnson and a man named Dan Folkener | about 8 o’clock this evening. As a result | of the fight Folkener iles at the Morgue a | corpse, and Johnson is charged with mur- der. Johnson is a well known groceryman in | this city. Just before the tragedy was | enacted the groceryman went out to wa- ter his horse and entered the stable. As he did so he noticed his dog growling near the entrance to the woodshed adjoining. Looking in he discovered Folkener, who | was slightly under the influence of liquor. | Johnson ordered him out, but he seemed reluctant to go, and the groceryman, be- coming angry, tried to force him out. The men grappled with each othe: Near the door was a pile sticks. Johnson grabbed one of these and Folkener an- | other. The first blow was struck by Fol- kener, so Johnson claims. At any rate the men hammered each other and scuf- fled until they reached the yard outside. After reaching a point about fifty feet from where the fight first began Johnson, | according to his own story, deaic his an- | tagonist a blow in the back of the head, which felled him. At this point a neigh- | bor rushed up and went to the rescue of the man on_the ground. “Don’'t touch him,” said Johnson, ‘ne’ll get up and fight again.” An examination of the wounded man, | however, revealed the fact that his neck | was broken and he was already dead.

Kenoyer is about 16 years of age and has accidentally been’ shot twice before, but not so seriously.
