It is expected that the Jimines Government will have to comply with the French de- | mand and that the incident will be settled in a few days.

G JIMINES RAISES THE NECESSARY MONEY Speclal Cable to The Call and New York Her- ald. Copyrighted, 1900, by James Gordon Bennett. | SANTO DOMINGO, Jan. 8.—President | Jimines, who has been at Macoris since | Saturday superintending the raising of the popular subscription to pay the | Boismare- cavelli ciaim to the F}rench‘ Government, returned this afternoon with 000 francs. The claim amounts to 250,000 fran. As the popular subscrip- | tion is larger than the claim, the Do- minicans are rejoicing. The return of the President under such auspicious circum- stances was marked by patriotic enthu- slasm and a general flag display. The French cruiser Cecille saluted the gun- boat on which President Jimines re- turned, The gunboat answered the sa- lute. No steps have been taken by the French Consul further than intrusting the case to Admiral Richard, No disorders have occurred but popu- lar sentiment is ageinst apologizing to France. People are urging the Govern- ment to prepare a system of defense, as the overthrow of the Government would be menaced at the first evidence of weak- ness. In ralsing the popular subscription many ladies offered tgolr Jewelry. One Spanish and one Italian merchant have incurred the dislike of the people by their fallure to subscribe. Placards have been rinted urging a boycott of the two rms. The arrival of the French cruiser Ce- cllle created considerable excitement. She reached Santo Domingo vesterday afternoon, but did not salute as she en- tered the harbor, The situation here is tranquil and the Government has urged the people to show no hostility to France, It is re- ported that France will send two addi- tional warships to this island. PTOMAINE POISONING ON THE RIO JANEIRO WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.—Commissary General Weston has received the reports of the officers in charge of the Thirty- first Infantry while on board the trans- port Rlo Janeiro upon the alleged polson- ing of the men through spoiled meats. The report of the regimental surgeon, C. W. Frye, has already been published to the effect that the poisoning resulted from fresh and not canned meat. The other report is from Lieutenant Colonel Plummer. He states that 289 m: were made sick on October 22 and after leaving Honolulu bound for Manila, and one man died. This was the result of ptomaine poisoning from the condition of the fresh meat eaten. From the experi- ence of the voyage Colonel Plummer rec- ommends that meat for the use of the l_roopukmberrplgked by pterno{ls expert in pac] esh meats for long voyages; also that officers of the quartermaster’ and commissary’s ‘departments be occa- slonally sent on the transports to acquire experience. neral Weston has forwarded the re- Yor_t. to Major Baldwin, the commissary n charge at San Francisco, to develop other facts relative to the responsibility for the condition of the meat. ] LIND MRRRYED JGAINST CLARK Battie for Mayor’s Chair in Sacr- mento. | RESTRAINING ORDER SECURED | A POLICE READILY OBEY ORDERS ISSUED BY CLARK.

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 8.—Superior Judge Johnson this evening granted a tempor- ary injunction restraining Mayor-elect George H. Clark from interfering with the duties of Mayor Willlam Land. The deciston is a sensational climax to one of the most remarkable days in the political history of Sacramento. The Call this morning told of the entrance of Mayor Clark and a detachment of police into the City Hall shortly after the midnight hour and the ejectment from office of Mayor Land and his attorney, Chauncey H. Dunn. The day had scarcely dawned when Chief of Police Ash was directed by Mayor Land to suspend Officers Fisher and Naghel from the police force for their participation in his ejectment. Last night Chlef Ash informed the officers of the tenor of the Mayor's message, but they refused to surrender their stars. Every | official in the city government was in turn notitied by Mayor Land of his claim that he was still the administrative head, but Mayor Clark was not asleep by any | means. Bright and early he was at the | police station with his attorney, Hiram ‘W. Johnson, and notified Chief of Police Ash that he should recognize him as the Mayor and pay no heed to the emana-| tions of Land. At noon to-day, after Chief Ash had taken time to ascertain where he was at, he announced that he would recognize Clark as Mayor. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon the newly elected Board of Trustees, which forms a co-ordinate branch of the municipal gov- ernment with the office of Mayor, met and officially declared its recognition of Clark as Mayor. While a message was being read before the Trustees, in which Mayor Clark spoke glowingly of the fu. ture of Sacramento under (im Joint ad. ministration of himself and the Trustees complications were rior Court four bloc Scarcely had the Trustees entered upon their session when Mayor Land filed a | sult in the Superior Court, contesting | Clark’s right to hold office. The suit was | based upon section 3 of the purity of elections law, which provides that no candidate can claim office unless he has filed within fifteen days a full statement of his expenses of election. Land claims that Clark did not file this statement in the time speched by law. The filing of the suit was immediately | followed by an application to Judge John- son for a temporary injunction restrain- | ing Clark from occupying the rooms of | the Mayor in the City Hall and from in- | terfering with Mayor Land's full and free exercise of the duties of Mayor. Long | and eloquently the lawyers pleaded on | both sides. Authorities in were produced in support o ing pleas. Judge Johnson listened patient. ly until long after the Courthouse had | closed for the night, and shortly before 8 | o'clock granted the temporary injlmcllon' asked for, Although the injunction issued by Judge Johnson is but temporary in character, | its effect has been to completely demoral- | ize the city government. Mayor Clark | this afternoon sent in che nomination of John E. Sullivan as Chief of Police, but aking in the Supe- | aw ! it is not probable that the Board of Trus- tees will fly in the face of Judge John- son’s decree and follow its determination, formed this afternoon, of recognizing the title of Mayor Clark and the valldity of his appointments. Said Judge Johnson to The Call cor- respondent to-night: “The injunction which I issued to-night is only temporary. Mayor Clark can come Into my court with his attorneys on a few hours’ notice and argue for its dissolution. To-day's motion was ex-parte, and there was no need for the presence of Clark's at- torneys, but they were present through | courtesy. Ten days is the limit in which the matter of dissolving an injunction may be yresemed, but I assured coun sel that desired to facilitate an early adjustment of the difficulties and would be ready to open court on three or four hours’ notice to accommodate them." Exciting as were the incidents of to-day the developments of to-morrow are be- ing awaited with no less intense interest. | About three weeks ago William H Brad- ley, who was a captain of police here four years ago, brought sult as a citizen against the induction of Clark, alleging that he was g\fllt}' of violations of the purity ot elections law, In having Incurred cam) expenses not included In his of- ficlal statement. This suit has been set for hearing in the Superfor Court to-mor- row and It promises, In view of the pres- ent remarkable state of affairs, to ave | reat significance and -interest. It has | that Bradley would “fall down" | when moment for action arrived, but Bradley insists that he will not, and has | publicly declared that If the witnesses | upon whom he relles fall to respond ' some one will be likely to to the peni- tentiary. It is said to-night to be prob- able that a judge from some outside county will be chosen to preside in the case. It was upon the pendency of this action that Mayor Land based his claim | for the continuance in office. 7 “i t his B been advised by his attorneys that duty to refuse to surrender possession of | the office until his successor has filed all statements required by law.
