Claims Right to Maintain Rails at Market and Eddy Streets. —_— The Market-street Raflway Company sent a communication signed by General Manager Vining to Benjamin Heath, chief of the Bureau of Streets, yesterday, in which the corporation holds that it has a right to maintain the tracks connecting Market street with Eddy and will not re- move them. The Board of Public Works recently sent a communication directing the company to remove the tracks forth- with. Vining states in his letter that it is not only the company’s right but its duty to lay the tracks in question, and that no forfeiture of franchise has oc- curred. . Accompanying Vining’s letter is an opin- ion of Attorney J. E. Foulds, filed with ??lfld Engineer H. H. Lynch, which is as ollows: All of the tracks in question were laid by virtue of order No. 2304 December 325, 183, “‘granting to Henry Moffatt, J. B. Reinstein and M. S, Elsner certain privileges since as- signed ‘to the Ferrls and Clift House Railroad Company.” g ‘The particular clause of the ordinance hav- ing reference to said tracks reads, '‘also com- mencing at the intersection of Eddy and Market streets, thence along Eddy street.” Under the ordinafy rules of construction the Intersection of two streets means the intersection of the center of the streets. The requirements of the franchise as to the expenditure of moneys In prosccuting the construction of the road were complied with. The tracks n been used to some extent in transf ed have ing and returning cars and as the conductor of the re- turn electric current, For the reasons stated I am satisfied that you have the right to main- | tain the tracks in question and therefore advise the demand of the Department Works be not complied with. Immediately on the receipt of the let- ters the Board of Works requested the Attorney to advise whether the terms of the franchise permit the main- tenance of the tracks to connect with Market street, and if so, whether the “nonuser” of the tracks has created a forfeiture of the right to maintain them. of Public INSURES HIGHER VTE OF WAGES Braunhart’s Bill Would Raise Pay of City Laborers. Ordinance Creating Places _ in.Registrar’s Office Passed. A resolution was presented to the Board | of Supervisors yesterday by Braunhart, fixing the amount of wages to be paid and regulating the hours of work for laborers employed by the Park Commissioners, and on all public utilities now owned or here- after to be acquired by the city. The reason for the introduction of the ordinance is that City Engineer Grun- sky’s report on the proposed acquisition of the Geary-street road by the city is based on the theory that the employes shall be paid at the rate of 25 cents an hour. The charter limits a working day to eight hours, thus insuring an employe a daily wage of $2. Braunhart's resolu- ticn, which was referred to the Judiciary Committee, follows: Section 1. The minimum wages of laborers in the employ, or hereafter to be employed, by the Park Commissioners on the lands, squares and grounds which are designated to be under the exclusive cantrol and management of said Commissioners by the chart fixed at 52 50 a day, and eij be the maximum hours of 1 dar day. Section 2. The minimum wages of laborers employed on any public utility now owned, or that may be hereafter acquired by the city and county of San Francisco, is hereby fixed at §250 a day, and elght (8) hours shall be the Haximum Hours of labor on any calendar day. The ordinance creating the positions of chiet deputy and head clerk in the Regis- trar's office was finally passed. Harry Zemansky and D. J. Gordon, at present clerks in the office, will be promoted to the positions, which carry salaries of $150 per month each. Reed objected to the passage of the or- dinance on the ground that the election was over and the work of the Registrar's office would now be at a standstill. measure, however, recelved fifteen votes, or one more than the necessary fourteen.

A number of the local business colleges were victims of a smooth swindler aur- ing the past week. The San Francisco, California and Heald colleges were suf- ferers to the extent of $25 each, and as a result the police are looking for a smooth young man of about 21 years, of medlum size, dark complexion and wearing dark clothes with white vest, : The operations of the young man fwere exposed yesterday at the office of Ayres' Business College in the History building. He sought to bleed Manager J. L. Wil- liams for $20 on an old® game, but that gentleman took the precaution to make 1 g a few Inquiries before paying the money, and the exposure followed. On Saturday Manager Williams re- | ceived a letter from one J. Dawson Al- berts of Oakland, announcing that the writer was desirous of sending his neph- €w to a business college and asking for the best terms of tuition. The writer de- clared that Ayres’ school had been recom- mended to him and that he would send his nephew to Williams on Monday with @ check to pay tuition fees. The letter was_written on Hotel Metropole paper. On Sunday Manager Williams telephoned to that hotel and inquired as to J. Daw- son Alberts. The answer was that no such person was known about the place. About 10 o'clock yesterday morning a young man called upon Manager Williams and introduced himself as the nephew of J. Dawson Albert: He said his uncle found it impossible to accompany him, but that he had sent a check to cover all expenses of entrance into the institution as pupil. The check exceeded the ex- penses by an even $20, and it was offered | to Williams with the remark that the $20 was intended by the uncle to defray the board of the young man for one month. Williams accepted the check, but before paying the excess went downstairs and telephoned to the First National Bank of Oakland, on which it was drawn, only to make the discovery that no such depositor as J. Dawson Alberts had an account at that bank, Williams returned to the office and warned the young man to leave the place at once or suffer arrest. The swindler said there was some mistake, but he did not tarry long to make excuses. Wil liams then telephoned to the San Fran- cisco College and learned that $25 had been paid to J. Dawson Alberts’ nephew on a check. Healds' College had been victimized to a like amount, as was also the Califernia College. A description of the swindler has been furnished to the police and a careful search is now being made for the enter- prising young man. —_———— Companions of the Forest. The recent open meeting of Loyal Circle of the Comvanions of the Forest was a very pleasant affair that was attended by a great many of the friends of the mem- e The features of the programme that was presented for the entertainment of all who attended were an overture by Miss R.

LIEBIG BEWARE OF YUST AS GOODS"| T HUSSELL WANTS MBSENCE LENE Board of Supervisors’ Clerk Withdraws Resignation. John A, Russell, clerk of the Board of Supervisors, has withdrawn his resigna- tion, which was placed in the hands of Mayor Phelan last week. The Board of Supervisors was prepared to accept the resignation at yesterday’'s meeting and to appoinf Charles W. Fay to the va- cancy, but action was forestalled by Rus- sell, who filed a request that he be grant- ed a leave of absence for six months. Russell assigns as a reason for his re- quest that his illness necessitates a con- tinuance of absence from his duties. The vgteran clerk believes that.he will be re- sttred to health at the end of his leave. The communication was referred to the Judiciary Committee to determine if the board has power to grant a leave for six months. Mr. Russell is afflicted with paralysis of the right side, and his intimate friends are of the opinion that he will not get well. The Mayor doubts whether such a long leaye as he asks for 1 legal under the charter. There is a disposition to treat him with great consideration on ac- count of Ris long and faithful service. The charter provides that no person em- ployed by the city shall be paid for a greaterlength of time than that covered by actual service. A resolution was adopted extending an invitation to Mayor-elect Schmitz and the newly elected members of the Board of Supervisors to attend the current sessions | of the board in order to familiarize them- | selves with their future duties. Fire Chief Sullivan’s petition that Frank Gcerman’s deed of heroism in rescuing Miss Nellie Healy from a fire at 244 Stev- enson street be suitably rewarded was re- ferred to the Finance Committee.

OAKLAND, Nov. 11.—The question of licensing saloons in East Berkeley within the mile limit came up before the Town Trustees this evening. and, while there ‘was no action taken, the board is at least seriously considering the matter. It came- up in the shape of a statement from Trustee Dowd of West Berkeley that Sam Fisher would give the town $2000 for a license for a year for a saloon on corner of Shattuck avenue and Cent street, the very center of East Berkele; and that he would assume all the resp sibility of the legality of the license. There was no_discussion of the matter, but President Marston of the Board of Trustees was appointed a committee of one to get a written offer from Fisher, after which the board will consider thie matter. The indications are that the board will grant the license if Fisher wiil assume the expenses of litigation that will undoubtedly_follow. e location pro- posed is at East Berkeley station.
