PASADENA, Jan. 9—When the Anti- Saloon League people won their fight at the polls last October and passed the san- itary law they thought that the saloons or roadhouses to the east and north of this city had been vanquished.

Special Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, Jan. 9.—The mayoralty situation presented several interesting de- velopments to-day, the most noteworthy by Mayor Land charging Mayor Clark his attorne Hiram W.

In his complaint Land alleges that he has been locked out of his oifice and cannot ob- tain the keys. Mayor Clark d last night sent to the Trustees for confirmation the name of John E. Sullivan for Chief of Police. Mayor Land took his turn at the bat to- day by forwarding to the Trustees as his appointment for Chief of Police the name ot Robert W. Ash, who is the present acting chief, having been installed as such upon the death of Chief Dwyer a few months ago. Clark filed an appli tion In the Superior Court for the d; tion of the temporary injunction ags him issued last night. It was argued for | sgeveral hours and had not been disposed of when court adjourned until to-morrow. A fair indication of public sentiment may be gained from the fact that the Bee to- night prints an editorial protest against attempts to prevent Clark occupying his seat before the courts have had a chance to decide the suit brought against him by William H. Bradley for alleged violation of the election law. The Bee, by the way, strongly opposed Clark during the cam: Enlgn The Bradley case came up to-day ut was conllnixed until to-morrow. PLAINTIFFS WIN AN IMPORTANT POINT J. B. Hassett Named by the Court as Receiver of the Coos Bay and Eastern Railroad. PORTLAND, Or., Jan. -8 —Judge Bellinger in the Unitea States District Court to-day appointed J. B. Hassett re- cetver of the Coos Bay and Eastern Rail- road and Navigation Company. The suit for a receiver was brought by J. D. Spreckels & Bros. Company of S8an Fran- cisco to compel a registry of the stock and a reorganization of the board of di- rectors of the company, It Is alleged that Spreckels Bros. furnished to R. A. Gra- ham the money to bulld the railroad and took as sccurity practically the whole issue of bonds of the road amounting to $620,000 and a majority of the stock in- dorsed but not registered, Graham owing them on a settlement $23,000. Graham Zlven six months to repurchase from Bpreckels Bros. their interest in the stock and bonds of the road and their Beaver Hill Coal Company for $550,000, Graham agreeing that should he not consummate he purchase he would relinquish to preckels Bros. all his interest in the road and mine. Accordingly the securities were lodged in the Bank of California as | trustee. Graham defaulted in the pay- | ment and the trustee turned over the stock and bonds to Spreckels Bros. The secretary of the corporation refused to transfer the stock and to register Spreck- els Bros. on the books as owners of the property. The suit is brought to compel a reglstry of the stock Senator White Improving. SAN JOSE, Jan. 9.—Edward White of Watsonville was in town to-day. “He says that his brother, Hon. Stephen M.

Hoar endeavored to secure immediate consideration for his resolution, but on ob- jection it went over until to-morrow. Senator Rawlins of Utah introduced a resolution to-day, which was referred to the Philippine committee, directing the committee to inquire into and report: First—What form of government, insurgent, revolutlonary or dictatorship, other than that of the kingdom of Spain, existed in the Phil- ippine Islands prior to December 10, 1899, and to what extent Spain had actual control of the islands? Second—Can soverelgn power be justly and in accorfance with international law claimed in the abgence of power to control? DUEL THAT MAY END WITH A FATALITY Indian Becomes Too Attentive to the Wife of a Mexican and a Fight Results. SAN DIEGO, Jan. $9—News was re- ceived from Lower California to-day of a probably fatal duel between a Mexican named Rosas and a Yaqu! Indlan called Leandro. The latter, it seems, had sought to be attentive to Rosas’ wife and the Mexican resented it. The tv'o men had uarreled and renewed their dispute last gunduy. Leandro fired four shots at Rosas, but did not hit him. Rosas then stabbed the Yaqui, inflicting a wound that is likely to prove fatal. The affair oc- curred about forty miles east of En- senada. He thought it bold to charge those men who had opposed this war from the be- ginning with the responsibility for all the blood being shed. He declared that there had not been a time when, if General Otis had been able to give assurances of inde- pendence to the Filipinos, the war would not have terminated. HOAR PLEADS THE CAUSE OF FILIPINOS Most Interesting Letter Sent by the Senator to Leading Editors of Boston. WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—Senator Hoar of Massachusetts has made public a let- ter he has addressed to the editors of the Journal, Advertiser, Herald and Globe of Boston in answer to a speech made by ex-Representative Quigg at the Essex Club the last Saturday in December. In this speech Mr. Quigg, referring to Sen- ator Hoar's attitude on the Filipino ques- tion, declared that the Senator “wants us to skulk from our duty.” Senator Hoar asgerts that the dis- patches of Admlra?‘newey and General Otis (some of the latter read by him, he says, having been withheld thus far from publlc knowiedge) establish beyond reas sonable doubt: 1 That Aguinaldo is an honest, patriotic and brave man. Indeed, that is the’express testi- mony of Mr. Schurman, president of the Philip- pine Commission. 2. That Aguinaldo was the chosen leader of the people of the Philippine Islands. 3. " That the people have from the beginning desired independence and desire it now. 4. That this desire was communicated to our commanders when they gave them arms, ac- cepted their aid and brought Aguinaldo from his exile, when he was put in command of 30,- 000 Filipino soldiers, who were already in arms and organized. 5. That the people of the Philippine Islands, before we fired upon their troops, have deifv: ered their own land from Spain, with the sin- &le exception of the town of Manila, and that they hemmed in the Spanish troops on land by a line extending from water to water, 6. That we could not have captured the Span- ish garrison, which was dome by an arrange- ment beforehand, upon a mere show of resist- ance, but for the fact that they were so hemmed in by Aguinaldo's forces and could not retreat beyond the range and fire of the guns of_our feet. 7. That during all this period to the final conflict the Filipinos were repeatedly inform- ing our Government that they desired their freedom and that they were never informed ot any purpose on our part to subdue them. That they were fit for Independence. They had churches, libraries, works of art and edu- cation. They were better educated than many American communities within the memory of me of us. They were governing their entire iglands except Manila in order and quiet, with municipal _governments, courts of justice, &chools and a complete constitution, Testing upon the consent of the people. They were better fitted for gelf-government than any country on the continent south of us from the Rio Grande to Cape Horn, San Domingo or Hayti when they received their independence, and are better fitted for self-government than - ANTI-IMPERIALISTS CONFER.

The average man knows that if his blood is impure he feels sick all over. He has headache, nausea, bad taste in the mouth, is costive and can put no energy into his work. The kidneys are de- signed to purify the blood, but if diseased and tired out they cannot do it. Extra work is thrown on the liver and lungs, and they, too, become diseased under the additional burden until the whole body is completely poisoned. What is to be done? Common sense says put the kidneys, the blood-purifying organs, in good health, and do it at once with Warner's Safe Cure before the kdneys break down and disin- tegrate from Bright's disease.—Warner's Safe Cure, a purely vegetable preparation, has cured thousands of men and women during the past twenty years who were in danger of death. It does exactly as repre- sented, and doss it quickly. One bottle will aid, a few bottles will cure. It is not a cheap decoction, but a scientific preparation carefully compounded. Do not longer trifle with your health, but give this great remedy an opportunity to cure you. DIRECTORY OF RESPONSIBLE HOUSES. Catalogues and Priee Lists Mailal on Application SEWALL FAVORS COAL.
