HOWARD Former Instructor in the Department of History in Stanford University Token of Esteem of — - PROF'GEO E Receives a Magnificent Pupils He Once Taught — HOWARP s0n = POPULAR PROFESSOR AND THB HANDSOME TESTIMONIAL PRE- SENTED HIM BY STUDENTS. — E2 N appreciation of the many years of untiring labor which he has devoted to the cause of education as professor of history in the Stanford University Dr. George Elliot Howard was pre- sented yesterday by his former pupils with a magnificent silver loving cup. The presentation took place In this city at the professor’s residence, 1457 Clay street. So secretly had the students arranged their plans and made their preparations that the honored instructor was taken com- pletely by surprise. All of Professor Howard's former stu- dents in this vicinity were invited to be present _and to assist in the ceremogz’. presentation livered an appropriate speech. He dwelt touchingly on the great benefits which the pupils had gath- ered from their instructor's efforts, say- ing that as a teacher and as a friend he had helped them, as a man inspired them to a higher plane of life, and that they had seen in him a devotion {o an ideal which made truth and righteousness su- preme. Although greatly moved by the display of affection on the part of his former pupils, Dr. Howard made a brief re- sponse. He said that if in any way he had ever fulfilled the higher responsibili- ties of a teacher he was satisfled. In referring to_the speech which ultimately led to the discontinuation of his connec- tion with the Stanford faculty, he sald: “In my speech against the new policy I showed the highest loyalty to Stanford University. When an institution is in the wrong its best friend is he who points out that wrong, thus enabling it to avoid future error.” The loving cup is truly a splendid af- fair. It is of solid silver and rests on an ebony base. Inside it is stained with gold. It bears the date of its presenta- tion and the following inscription: To George Elllot Howard, from former stu- dents of the Lelard Stanford University. in token for his learning, gratitude for his kind- ness, honor for his nobility, affection for him- self. When Stanford University was first opened Professor George Eiliot Howard was chosen to flll a place in_the faculty, He is a graduate of the University of Nebraska, and while at Stanford was deemed one of its ablest and most con- sclentious instructors.

CAMP LAD OUT AT SINTA CRUZ How the Guardsmen Will Live in the Tented City. Next Saturday afternoon the big divi- sion camp of the National Guard of the State will open in Santa Cruz, where al- ready the grounds have been laid out for one of the largest camps that has ever been planned for the miilitia of California. The site of the camp is what is known as Laveaga Heights and the camp itself will be known officially as Camp Gage. The grounds are cut by numerous gulches, and the first problem presented was how to arrange the various brigades and regi- ments so as to give all room enough and still leave a large drill and parade ground. This work fell to the engineer officer of the division, Lieutenant Colonel Draper, and he has laid out as complete and com- pact a camp as could well be made. On a ridge to the south and west of the main camp is the place arranged for the tents of the division commander, his staff and the division headquarters. Then in order along the ridge to the north and east are the Sixth and Second Infantry, forming the Third Brigade, both camps but one company deep and_correspond- ingly wide. Then comes the Fifth and the First Infantry and the artillery battal- fon, forming "the Second Brigade. The Fifth Infantry will be camped with the The First will bave two battalion streets after the for- mation of the Model Camp at the Pre- sidio gate. The artillery battalion will be camped in similar formation and just be- side the First Regiment. Some distance beyond the Second Brigade will be camp- ed the twelve companies of the Seventh Infantry in a triangle, six companies on the base, then four and then two. Just beyond the regimental headquarters will be the headquarters of the First Brigade. Across a gulch from the division\head- quarters will be the three signal corps, the two troops of cavalry and the stables, where there will be room for 450 horses on the picket ropes. Behind the division headquarters will be the division hospital and in front of it the flagstaff, with the flag In view from all parts of the camp. The nature of the ground and the ridges and gulches cutting through it have made it necessary to lay the camp out in both company and battalion streets, and when the tents have been pitched and the divi- sion has been fairly settled there will not bs much in camp building that will not be exemplified in Camp Gage. The drill and parade ground is a pla- teau of perhaps forty acres, with nearly forty more added to it by adjoining ridges. There is plenty of room for all the regi- ments to drill upon it and for the big re- view which will greet the Governor when he visits the camp, probably on Friday, JIIT{\: 14. o e camp grounds are surrou timber and orchards. There is p‘l‘g:?y ‘z’é water and a few electric lights, but the latter will not be very much needed. It is the expectation to have the camp well settled by Saturday night, June 8, when the advance guard will have finished its work and the companies have come down and taken possession. It will break up the following Saturday. Peter Dean’s Will. The will of the late Peter Dean, who died recently, leaving an estate valued at $200,000, was filed for probate yesterday.

BUTCHERS TO CELEBRATE EMPLOYERS’ CONCESSIONS Painters Claim They Have Not Been Fairly Represented by Action of Labor Council. All differences between the journeymen butchers and their employers have been settled. All proprietors have acceded to the demands of the laboring men and a celebration of the change in hours will be had by the Journeymen Butchers at Schuetzen Park next Sunday. A regular meeting of the Journeymen Butchers' Union will be held to-night at the Turk Street Temple. The strike of the French and Ttalian bakers has been arranged by the con- cession of hours demanded by the bakers. About 110 men will get the same pay as recelved before for seven days’ work dur- ing the six working days now granted. Painters’ Union No. 75 has appointed a walking delegate who speaks Italian and has adopted the following resolutions: Whereas, It has come to the knowledge of Painters’ Union No. 73, through the public prints of Saturday, June 1, that the “‘Brothes hood of Painters, Decorators and Paper-han ers'” were, on May 31, admitted to membe ship In the Francisco Labor Counell; and, whereas Union No. 73, com: posed of $00 , is the largest local body representing the Brotherhood ~ of Painters, Decorators and Paper-hangers on the Pacific Coast; therefore be it Resolved, By Painters’ Unlon No. 73, in reg- ular session assembled, that the report re- ferred to s untrue, erroneous and misleading, inasmuch as Painters'’ Union No. 73 has not been. admitted to membership in the San Fran- eisco Labor Council, for the reason that the sald union never made application for such Membership, mor did it at any time ever con- sider the advisability of affiliating with the San Francisco Labor Council. The “brotherhood”” that was admitted to membership in the Labor Council last Friday night 1s the retinue composed of about cighteen members, known as No. 156, and Which holds a charter against the expressed desire of the organized painters of San Fran- clseo, and which at the request of Painters' Union No. 73 was refused recognition by the Building Trades Council a vear ago, and which was later also refused membership in the District Council of Painters, Painters’ Unlon No. 78 wishes it understood that the only local central bodfes it is at present affiliated with is the Building Trades Councll of San Francisco and the District Council of Painters, and that it is entirely satisfled with its present affillations, and fur- ther do we wish it known that the so-called HSrotherhood of Painters, Decorators and Pa- per-hangers,’’ lately admitted to membershin o the San Francisco Labor Council, consists of some eighteen men who for some reason of their own have not found it advisablc to join Painters’ Union No. 73, and that therefore Painters” Union No. 73 is not in any manner responsible for any action that this doubtful “brotherhood” of elghteen may take. Journeymen Barbers’ Union No, 148 has elected George Aubertine and J. J. Calish as its representatives to the San Fran- cisco Labor Council.

Four debenture companies transacting business in San Francisco have decided, upon being warned by the Attorney Gen- eral, to close up their accounts at the earliest possible moment to avold prose- cution. The famous Ohio debenture deci- sion and the opinion recently rendered by the United States Attorney General both hold that a debenture business is illegal, being in the nature of a lottery, and such concerns are ~being prosecuted throughout the country. The local corporations that have prom- ised to retire without litigation are the ‘American Guaranty and Trust Company, National Mutual Maturity ~Company, Western Mutual Investment Company and the Debenture Investment Company of San’ Francisco. The Pacific Debenture Company, which has also been informed of the aftitude of the Attorney General in the matter, has as yet failed to make known the course which it will pursue. The representatives of the various com- panies appeared before Attorney General Ford and stated that aithough they be- lieved that they were conducting a legal business they felt that litigation ‘would result disastrously for them, even if they should in the end win their case in the courts. _Accordingly, with the exception of the Pacific Debenture Company, all placed before the Attorney General certi- fied copies of resolutions adopted by each firm showing that all were going out of business in_California as soon as debts could be collected and obligations paid. To the four companies who have re- sponded to the representations made by the Attorney General, the following let- ter has been sent: 3 3y date of March 30, 1901, T wrote yout company notifying e same {0 show cause, any 1t had, on or before the 6th day of ‘April, 1801, why an action should not be com- enced against said company to obtain judg- T n¢ “restraining sald company from the fur- ther transaction of buainess, Thereafter a cor; tifiea copy of a resolution neretofore adopted by your company was received by this D Ythe terms of said resolution I note that Voar company, by virtue of said resolution, Jesoived to “‘at once proceed to liquidate and “iose up its business and the secretary is here- by Instructed-to cease writing any Bew busi; Yes. and the secretary and other officers ar D v Imstructed not to Write or Sign or issue Hny more bonds or debentures, but as soon as Possible to liquidate, wind up, and up Ti"or the bond business of this company, in order that all of the bonds and del may be pald and the affairs of a with the history have concluded to ac lution aforesaid, .

Electric Lines to Radiate in All Directions From San Jose. RN Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, June 3.—A network of elec- tric rallways radlating from San Jose, calling for the expenditure of mnearly $1,000,000, is what an Eastern syndicate of- fers to create if the County Board of Sup- ervisors will grant the application for franchises made by George T. Dunlap of Gilroy this afternoon. More than 100 miles of road is proposed, and every sec- tion of the county will be reached, while Dunlap says the men he represents have plenty of money and are prepared to carry out their plans at once. The capitalists back of the enterprise are undoubtedly those who recently bought the water rights at the head of the Coyot Creek, near Gilroy, and from here the power will be furnisheq for the roads. Forty thou- sand acres of land was procured there, Preliminary work for an immense storage dam has been done, and altogether m‘tf» has been expended. The title to the land Tests in Dunlap, but he admits that he only represents outside capital. Should the proposed roads be construet- ed they will place San Jose in a position to control the trade of the valley, Mr. Dunlap, in company with his attorney, C. W. Cobb, presented the petition for the franchises to the Supervisors this after- noon. He urged actlon at once, saying the capitalists he represented were anx- ious to commence work. The road will have seven different branches, as follows: Alviso to San Jose—Starting at Ellza- beth street in Alviso and thence along the Alviso and San Jose road to the northerly limits of this ulti'. b San Jose to Gliroy—From the southern limits of this city along the Monterey road to the limits of Gilroy, a distance of thirty miles. This will touch at all the towns along the route. Gilroy to San Felipe—From the eastern limits of Gilroy northeasterly through Old Gilroy and along the Pacheco Pass and Visalla road and the Dunn road to the di- viding line between Santa Clara and San Benito counties. This road may be ex- tended to Hollister and Watsonville. San Jose to Los Gatos—Out San Carlos street to the Meridlan road, Hamilton avenue to the Los Gatos and Santa Cruz road, to Los Gatos by way of Campbell. San Jose to Santa Clara—From the west- ern limits of San Jose on Park avenue to Union avenue and thence along Union avenue to Santa Clara. Santa Clara to San Mateo—Along the San Francisco road to the San Franels- quito Creek, the dividing line between Santa Clara and San Mateo counties. Gilroy to Sargents—From the southern limits of Giiroy southerly over the Mon- terey road to the Pajaro River, the divid- ing line between Santa Clara and San Becnltoldcountles. ‘onsideration of the petition for these franchises will come \lppbeful'a the Super- visors to-morrow morning, when a date will be set for the hearing. There prob- ably will be some contest over the routes. and it is understood certain of them will be_changed. The company back of the electric rail- way project is believed to be the Head- light Investment Company, which was in- corporated in Nevada on July 21 last. The place of business is Carson City, with a branch office In San Francisco. The direc- tors named are J. D. Tennyson, T. R. Hope and E. J. Walsh of Carson. The lands and water right near Gilroy were acquired by this company. Another rumor has the rallways pro- Jjected by the Baltimore syndicate that re- cently bought the San Francisco and San Mateo Railway.
