STANFORD DOES NOT GET A SINGLE SET California gave Stanford a terrible drub- bing on the California tennis courts Sat- urday in the tenth annual intercollegiate tennis tournament. It was the most sig- nal victory either college has won since intercollegiate tennis was started. Several hundred people were on hand to encourage the collegians when play was called. Both singles events were played at the same time, but the one between Harry Wiehe and Paul Selby attracted the most attention. At the start the for- mer tried to play the net game, but he soon realized that that would not do, as Selby was passing him mnunuallg with both back and fore hand drives. Belby's accuracy in placing his drives was re- markable, and his opponent seemed to lose confidence very rapidly as the game progressed. Wiehe, whose forte is_vol- leying, was very weak at the net. Selby played by far the best game he has ever put up, but Wiehe was a trifle off in his The complete score in favor of Selby was 6—2, 6—3, . While Selby was disposing of Wiehe Drummond McGavin was administering an equally crushing defeat to Willlam Roth, Stanford’s second man in singles. McGavin, who is usually very nervous in a tournament, was perfectly cool through- out the match and executed his long, sweeping drives to perfection. Roth rhade a good stand in the second set, pulling it up from 3—5 to 55, only to lose 'in the end, 8—6. McGavin outplayed his oppo- nent at every point of the game, and his smashing was a feature. The score in McGavin's_favor was 6—1, 8—6, 6—3. Henry Wiehe and Dick Adams, the fa- mous pony team, were generally picked to win the doubles, but the California men showed that they can play doubles fully as well as singles. With the tennis cham- plonship already won the California men were very confident and took many chances, while the Stanford men were discouraged and played on the defensive throughout. Adams played a fine game, but Wiehe was very much disheartened and did not support his partner as well as usual. McGavin and Selby played an aggressive game from start to finish. Both men drove splendidly from the back court and up_at the net killed everything. The Stanford men resorted to a lobbing game, which did not prove very effective against their hard-hitting opponents. The first set was very close, but after that everything went Berkeley’s way and she won the next two sets rather easily. Adams played a very gritty game and tried hard to stave off defeat, but to no avail. The score in favor of Selby and McGavin, the California men, was 7—5, Of the ten intercollegiate tennis tour- naments played each college has won five. PUTS A BULLET THROUGH HEART W. Muller Kills Himself|= in Room Occupied by Wife. ‘William Muller, a barkeeper employed by D. Susing, Twelfth and Franklin streets, Oakland, shot himself through the heart to-night in the room occupled by his wife at 533 Hobart street. Muller was married last August, but had been separated from his wife some time. Re- cently Mrs. Muller brought suit for di- vorce, and to-night Muller went to the Hobart-street house to see her. Just what passed between the two at this last interview Mrs. Muller declines to state, but it is probable that the bar- keeper made threats against his wife's life, as they had been together but a few minutes when she suddenly screamed and jumped through the window on to the orch. Muller killed ,hlmsell a moment ater. Muller left a note sa: thing happened to him J. E. McElroy, his attorney, would look after his affairs, and this fact, together with Mrs. Muller’s leap through the window, leads the police to believe that Muller contemplated killing the woman and then committing suicide. ———— ) Teachers’ Annuities Paid.

It is based upon his intimate acquaintance with the affairs of the west- ern world and points out wherein there is the opportunity for China to adopt an enlightened and progressive policy, which will bring it into harmony with the sis- terhood of nations and at the same time will relieve it from the present perplexi- ties which are crowding upon it at all hands. He has prepared a comprehensive docu- ment, covering twenty heads dealing with administrative, economic and financial questions, and taking in practically the entire range of Government afiairs 50 far as there seems to be at present oppor- tunity of rehabilitating them on modern and progressive lines. The document is, however, most conservative in character and purposely afolds radicalism and ex- treme reforms Wwhich have interfered with previous efforts to bring about a change in the existing order of affairs. People Slow to Realize. Wu is a loval and devoted admiger of this country and its Institutions, #nd he has not been in sympathy with past ef- forts for excessive change, as in his judg- ment they went so far as to invite pre- judice and opposition, not only in im- perial and other ruling’ quarters, but also With the mass of the peop , who are slow to realize the advantage of sweeping changes. In the present instance he has sought to find a mjddle ground of con- servative Improvement which would com- mend itself both to the Chinese Govern- ment and to the world at large as calcu- lated te remove the most serious obsta- cles in the way of progress. In determining upon this course, Minis- ter Wu is acting entirely upen.his own initiative and responsibility and without any preference to his status as Minister to Washington or on any suggestion from officlals here. While he has had the mat- ter in_contemplation for some time, yet there has been no occasion or opportuns ity for giving expression to his plans, Now, however, this opportunity has pre- sented itself in the form of a recent im- perial edict inviting the high officials of China at home and abroad—Viceroys, Governors and Ministers abroad-—to pre= sent to the Government every facility at their command to afd in overcoming the disastrous condition of _affairs, Che edict points out past evils and holds to severe account the members of the old regime whose conduct has been lnrrlfi responsible for the distress through whic! the country has passed. The Government therefore asks for every ald which its patriotic citizens can bring to it in over- coming the evils of the past and In estab- lishing a secure basis for the future. Act- ing upon this edict Mr. Wu has prepared his comprehensive memorial to the Gov- A memorial of this character, it 1s said, is the most important act a Chinese official can take, for it is not re- sorted to except on rare occasions when the an\%ly of a cause warrants an offi- cial to come:into immediate communica- tion with the imperial authorities on high questons of state. Plans Conservative Reform. Perhaps the most important feature of the document is its general presentation of the view that the time is now at hand for China to adopt plans of conservative reform. - In staugf the need and aggre- gate of this the Minister’s memorial will Doint to the lesson Japan has given to the world. Up to a few years ago the condi- tions ‘in China and Japan were almost Ydentical. But by the gradual adoption of modern methods of procedure Japan has brought herself into close communi- cation with the rest of the world, and now occupies an enviable position among the other recognized great powers. Min- ister Wu holds that there is nothing lack- ing in the resources of China or in the character of her people to keep her from securing the same advantages that have come to Japan. The memorial does not, however, confine itself to generalization, but specifies along what lines changes can be made with advantage. As stated, these cover administrative, economic and finanelal conditions. In_ some respects, also, Mr. Wu's recommendations will take up lines of reform that have been brought forward by the powers in the negotiations at Peking, and will point out that instead of resisting them it will be to the ad- vantage of China to go even further than the powers have suggested. For instance, one of the most important subjects re- cently under consideration has been that relating to the establishment of a for- eign office at Peking to take the place of the Tsung-li Yamen. The plan of the powers, as recently made known in dispatches from Peking, is that the old board of ten members shall be replaced by a new board of five members, with a Prince of the blood at its head, two Ministers of Foreign Affairs and two Vice Ministers, the latter to have a knowledge of foreign languages. This plan has not been wholly satisfactory to the foreisn Ministers and their Governments, but they have accepted dt with the belief that it will be at least an improvement on the old Tsung-l{ Yamen, and one which would be more likely to concur with China's de- sire to have important work performed by boards instead of individuals. One Man Must Reign. Wu's memorfal will go even further than the powers have suggested as to the demand of a modern foreign service. Instead of a board he will propose that one official be given the authority and re sponsibllity of directing the forelgn af fairs of the empire. He does not remard it as essential that this one official shall be a Prince of the blood, although If need be preference might be given to a Prince if he had the other requisites of abllity tor foreign administration. The memorial will urge that the su- preme test in the selection of this hixh officlal shall be abllity and fitness for the special duties to which he is appoint. ed. It will be vointed out that by vir. tue of his position he should be a mem- ber of the Privy Council, and thus be abla to secure ready access to the Emperor. While this official would be charged with the responsibility, yet for adminis- trative purposes he would have under him two or three assistants. This would con- stitute .the entire executive organization, 80 far as relates to the foreign affairs of the empire, and such additional officlals as might be required would be appointe for the purposes of carrying on the busi ness of the office. There would be no need of two assistant secretaries with a knowledge of foreign languages, as such officlals would be nothing more than in- terpreters. Wu's plan is to confine the responsible authority within narrow lim- its, leaving assistants, interpreters, etc., to carry on the administrative work. In other respects the memorial will present in detail the best features of Western ad- ministration applicable to China. The doc- ument is practically completed, and soon will be laid before the Imperial Govern- ment. R e BUTTE, Mont., April 21.—A special from Chestnut, Mont., to the Miner says: Henry H.

FREIGHT TRAIN WRECK ON THE COAST ROAD SANTA BARBARA, April 21.—A freight train on the coast line, leaving here at 10 o'clock this morning, was wrecked at Summerland, about six miles south of this city. The trucks of one of the cars about the middle of the train left the rails and before the train could be stopped six cars had been piled upon the tracks, all badly broken. No one was in- jured, the crew being in the caboose, which did not leave the ralls. A wreck- ing train has been sent for to clear the tracks. The rails and ties are torn up for a distance of 300 yards. Passengers and baggage on incoming trains are being transferred around the wreck. ADVERTISEMENTS.
