The Central is giving_some really flne shows just now, since Mr. Downing's assumption of the management, and with the good cast that has been chosen and the adequate set- tings “Trilby” is likely to be a first fa- vorite. "Mr. Brophy will be seen as Sven- gali, Miss Crosby as Trilby, Stanley Ross as Little Billee, Robert Cummings as Taffy and James Corrigan as the laird. For the last week of light opera at the Tivoli the management has wisely to revive the popular “Toymaker," the original cast. Next week the grand opera season begins, with “‘Aida” and “Rigoletto” as alternate bills. The season bids falr to surpass any season of the Tivoli's history, the principals belng of exceptional attainment and the various parts usually well balanced.

R e ‘“We belfeve that the present rate is as low as we can possibly make it. We can- not see that the railroad is responsible for the present condition.” These words, spoken by Willlam Sproule, freight trafic manager of the Scuthern Pacific, were the net result of a conference called at the Board of Trade rooms Saturday morning by the Sacra- mento Valley Development Association. There were present at the meeting mer- charts, farmers and bankers, interested in the present condition of the farming industry in the Sacramento and San Joa- quin valleys, and Mr. Sproule. The wheat growers asked for a flat reduction of 2 per cent In the rates charged by the rafl- road company for carrying wheat from all points in the valleys to tide water at Port Costa. It was sald by men present who knew what they were talking about that, owing to the present rates on wheat, farms in Glenn and Colusa countles were being abandoned, and those farmers who stald by their wheat land were much cleser to starvation than was at all pleas- ant. The principal grievance against the railroad company was the charge made for loading, unloading and weighing. It was claimed that the company charges growers at Willows 15 cents for loading wheat on the cars, 10 cents for unloading it and 8 cents for weighing. This is by the ton, and the charges were deemed ex- orbitant. The meeting was presided over by W. §. Green, president of the Sacramento De- velopment Assoelation. P. R. Garnett of Wll‘!l]cws. in speaking of the situation, sald: “The rallroad charges us the same rate for hauling our wheat now that it did fifteen years ago, when wheat was worth $150. Wheat has come down, but the freight rates are the same. We want to ask the railroad to do something for the State, #nd not to kill the wheat industry. We bought land at exorbitant prices in Sacramento and_Glenn counties, and now we are paying 15 cents for putting wheat on the cars, 10 cents for unloading it and 8 cents for running it on the scales. The tariff of §2 40 a ton is simply ruinous. Un- less there is a reduction we will all have to go out of business, and the offered re- ductlon of 10 cents a fon is an absurdity.” There was some further discussion and then, at the suggestion of W. S. Green, it was agreed to ask the railroad people for a flat reduction of 25 per cent. e gen- tlemen present then opened their batteries on Sproule, all endeavoring to show that the present charges were exorbitant and that the reduction asked for was reason- able. A. R. Briggs of Fresno said: “I handle 30,000 acres in my county that is good grain land, well watered and with rich soil, but each year hundreds of acres i taken out of grain. In the last three years wheat has steadily run the farmers irto debt.” Sproule Asks a Question. “What are the factors that have brought about that condition?” asked Sproule. “There are several,” Briggs replied. “We have reduced rents and the interest rate. Theland-ownerand the money-lender are trying to get together. It is true that the yield has increased with putting water on the land, but the farmer has to pay for water. Every man in the nation is protected except the farmer. The farmer as to pay more for his implements than he did years ago. He has to pay 40 shill- ings on wheat to London, and is getting less for wheat than he did twenty years ago. Your people can well afford to look into this matter, for I will tell you frank- 1y that if present conditions continue there will be only one farmer in the San Joaquin Valley where there were once three. On our 30000-acre tract we have not one farmer who would not throw up farming if he could do it." ‘William Beekman of Sacramento sail that much land in his county that had once been in wheat was now in weeds. The same cculd be said of lands in Yolo ahd Glenn. “If the low prices for wheat hold, thou- sands of acres will go back to grazing,” Beekman said. Says Rates Were Reduced. “I was much startled,” Sproule said at last, “to learn that grain rates had not been reduced in the last fifteen years. When I bring this to your consideration you will remember that grain rates have been reduced several times in the Sacra- mento Valley. The rate has been reduced from $3 50 to $2 60 from Tehama. From Corning the rate was $330 and we dropped it to $2 60. All points in the Sac- ramento Valley shared im that. The re- duction from Willows was from $250 to §2 40. We made that because of river competition. The Southern Pacific is not interested in the excessive charges made at Port Costa. The men there have struck for 40 per cent increase in wages and have refused an increase of 2 per cent. I simply say this to show our farmer friends that if we can reduce our unload- ing charges at Port Costa we will do so. In 1894 the charter rate was 20 shillings; to-day it is 40 shillings. It seems to me that as our rates go down charter rates go up. If the wars in China, the Philip- pines and South Africa were ended ships would be released and charters would drop. We believe that the present rate is as low as we can possibly make it. we carrfed wheat free to Port Costa charter rates would be raised, and we cannot see that the railroad is respon- sible for the present conditions.” A. Hockheimer of said he thought charter charges would be re- duced. Tramp steamers would force down the price. “It comes to this,” sald R. J. Trumble. “If the present rates continue no more wheat will be raised. Farmers will no longer farm.” Water Front Notes. There were fifteen arrivals up to 5 p. m. vesterday. Nearly all of them were coast- ers, the only deep water being the bark Amy Turner, eighteen days from Hilo, and the schooner Dora Bluhm, from Hanamaula, H.

The steamer Carlisle City was released from quarantine yesterday. The vessel arrived at San Diego over a month ago and the captain reported that several of his crew had died from the plague. She was kept in quarantine there for seven- teen days and then came on to San Fran- cisco. She has been held here ten days, and during that time all her cargo was discharged into lighters. She was fumi- gated Saturday and released yesterday morning. The steamship M. 8. Dollar, built in the East for the M. 8. Dollar Steamship Com- any, has been sold to the J. S.
