His funeral took place last Monday under the auspices of the court and was largely at- tended. At the meeting of the court last Tuesday night resolutions of respect to his memory and sympathy for his widow and orphans were adopted. Court Seal Rock announces that its spe- clal team will give on the 18th inst. the Oriental degree to a number of eligibles, who will be created princes in the most approved manner, in Devisadero-street hall.

The high chief ranger will endeavor to have a part of the next session of the Supreme_Court of the order, which is to open in Los Angeles in the first w in April next, held in San Francisco and in Sacramento. Dr. Oronhyatekha, supreme chief ranger of the order, is now in Australia. The order is assuming a wonderful prog- ress there, and the outlook is favorable for at least 1000 new members a month from that country and New Zealand. At the recent session of the Supreme Castle of the Knights of the Golden Eagle, held in Buffalo, S. M. Harlan of Union City, Ind., became past supreme chief; S. J. Southard of Bellefontaine, Ohlo, was chosen supreme chief, and A. C. Lyttle of Philadelphia was re-clected supreme master of records. It is expected that the present supreme l chief will follow the example of his pre- decessor in the matter of mn.klng visita~ tions ’to the West, as the visit of Supreme Chief Harlan some time ago resulted in a great deal of good. The new chlef has not yet announced his deputies for this city, but it is presumed that he will con- tinue in these positions W. O. Maedou- gell, who has held the office for many years, and C. A. McGowan, who was ap- pointed some time ago. Both have been active workers for the advancement of the order. There are now two castles of the order in this city, California No. 1 and San Francisco No. 2, and in a short time William McKinley Castle No. 3, will be instituted, the petition for a charter be- ing ready for transmission to the Su- preme Castle. Pacific Temple No. 1 will soon be insti- tuted by Deputy McGowan. It will start with a charter list of about 100 members, embracing sir knights, their lady rela- tives and lady friends.

The first steps were well calculated to enlist confidence. The appraisements of tha properties were made carefully, and everything that could be done was done to show that the great combination to be perfected in the Interest of producers was on strictly busi- ness principles. Some papers in the State seem to regard it as a new discovery that the producing companies of the McKit- trick fleld are includcd in the combine. The fact that they were included was an- nounced in this paper months ago. . 8. Porter declares that the progress is satis- factory. TUnlisted Stocks Called. The Los Angeles S‘ock Exchange has decided to have stocks that are not listed called every day after the regularly listed ones. The expianation furnished for this move Is that it will enable the public in the East and at home to discriminate be- tween bona fide stocks and the others that are being floated principally for the beneflt of promoters. The Los Angeles Herald says: Just at present there is quite a boom in min- ng and the exaggerated accounts of ofl devel- opment that have figured and are to-day fig- uring in_the Eastern papers are being out- ranked by the advertisements of gold, silver and copper companies seeking to float their stock into the hands of the unenlightened Easterners at office prices. For such com- panies as these it Is undesirable that their stocks should be quoted in the exchanges, for a prospective buyer will have bis confidence somewhat shaken when he sees the stock that he s asked 60 cents (or quoted at less than half that amount. Indeed, some companies Pave sent a request to the Stock Exchange that their stock be omitted from the. call. This request will not be granted, and henceforward unlisted stocks that are offered will be quoted and published. The new Pacific oil reflnery at Bakers- fleld is ready to receive its machinery. The plant will have a capacity of 1500 Dbarrels per day. The ofl will be Grawn to the works by the Santa Fe, which has constructed a spur track for the service. The proposition to build a pipe line to the Kern RFVGr field to save the rail tolls has been discussed. The San Jose Mercury is responsible for the statement that oil has been struck near San Jose. It vias found in small quantity. The Mercury says that the company is drilling on the Los Gatos road about six miles west from San Jose. On the same land parties drilled for ofl some years ago and went down 600 feet, when they were forced to quit for lack of prop- er appliances. The present operations are not in the old well, but are not far from it. Manager Conkling tells the Mercury that his company is prepared to drill 1500 feet if necessary. Situation at Beaumont. The producers of the Beaumont fleld are proposing the organization of a $190.- 000,000 combination. There is a great ac- cumulation of oil in the field and no pres- ent sufficient market for it. Pipe lines are being laid and the first tank steamer has sailed for Londun. The production has been very large and it will take a long time to et rid of it. In the mean- time the companies ure acting like the companies in California—trying to market their oil for what they can get at once. New York men have sent a circular to each of the companles asking the boards of directors to take favorable action to- ward effecting a comPination. The Los Angeles Herald tells of a well on Cottage Home street, in Los Angeles, that was drilled recently and yielded 200 barrels during the first twenty-four hours after it was completed, and has given up 100 barrels per day for the last two weeks. It is reported by the Los Angeles Her- ald that Antelope Valley will be thor- oughly explored for water and oil. If oil is not found and water is discovered then the owners of the land stand to win, for the soil has been found to be excellent for the production of grapes, almonds and cherrles. Two Los Angeles banks and many prominent citizens have holdings in the valley, and there s accordingly a chance that a strong company will be or- ganized to drill.

Attorney General Ford received & tele- gram from the United States Supreme Court yesterday, stating that a new trial had been denied Dr. J. Ellis Rodley of Chico, Butte County. Rodley was con- victed of perjury in the Fuller will case about two years ago and sentenced to twelve years imprisonment in the State penitentiary. The_case has been fought unsuccessfully through all the courts and now nothing remains to the prisoner Mt to pay the ity for A E\Iller%ef Chico died in October, 1897, leaving no will and an estate valued at about $30,000. A year later a Mrs. Minnle Houseworth who had been Fuller’s house- keeper, came forward with an alleged will from wbhich it seemed that the testator jueathed all his property to her except $1000, which was to be divided among the legal heirs. Dr. Rodley and J. M. Garner were the subseribing witnesses. When the will was offered for probate both swore that Fuller had executed it in their presence. The heirs instituted pro- ceedings to contest the validity of the document and subsequently Garner ad- mitted that his previous testimony was false and that he had been promised $1000 to_sign his name to the forged will Rodley, the only one of the three who has been tried as yet, was sentenced to twelve years at Folsom. He appealed to the State Supreme Court. The jud; and order of the lower court were med and his attorneys decided to carry the matter to the court of last resort. Ae- cordingly a writ of error was sued out in the United States Subreme Court on the ground that the indictment was defective. Attorney General Ford flled a petition for dismissal, contending that no question was involv case was heard In Washington on November 11 and the decision. which is fatal to Rodley’s hopes of liberty, was handed down yesterday. Cause of Overcrowded Schoels. School Director Denman stated yester- day that the reason for the congested at- tendance in the public schools was the Increase in the population in the city, and not that there were insufficient accommo- dations. Denman gives it as his opinfon that the population bas increased by 10,- 000 during the jast seven months, and that consequently more chiliren were gt to > school.
