One of these notices, under the caption of *‘Caution,” reads as follows: “The Odd Fellows' Cemetery trustees have not hesitated to defeat the will of the majority of the lot-owners by at- tempting to illegally dissolve the annual meeting. They want a chance to revoke | your proxies,” Do not permit them to do | so. For further information call or com- municate with Otto tum Suden, 530 Cali- fornia street, or R. H. Countryman, tenth floor, Mills building.” These notices, inserted at the instance of the “insurgent” board of directors, as the officials of the disgruntled lot-owners are called, were clipped from the news- papers and copies sent to all individual owners of plats in Odd Fellows’ Cemetery.

The states that an effort has been report | made to eliminate as many grade cross- ings as possible apd to determine the | most feasible gradds for the varlous streets and avenues that are crossed or tion. It has been declded that the pro- posed track elevation be lowered south- ward, from Army street to the county line. ' This modification will be acceptable to the railroad company, and on this as- sumption recommendations are made that grades be changed and established on Mariposa, Twenty-second, Twenty-third, lowa, Army, Mississippi and Q streets; Pennsylvania, Fourth, Fitth, Sixth, Sev- enth, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh, Twelfth, Thirteenth and Fourteenth ave- nues south and other streets in the Po- trero and South San Francisco over which the proposed bay shore cut-off will run. PLANS FOR TUNNELS. The report says: E Instead of raising Fifteenth avenue South 13.7 feet it will be necessary to raise it not more than 3.47 feet. Instead of raising Army street 11 feet the street will be depressed 5.5 feet, thereby permitting the arrangement of a subway. It will be possible to carry Willlams street and Twenty-fourth and Paul avenues over the raflroad on bridges. The cut-off line will cross fifty-five streets, avenues and al- twenty-three ' of these the road leys. Under will run through tunnels and will conse- quently not require grade modification. Eight of the streets will cross the railroad at grade; seven will cross over the rallroad on bridges, and seventeen will pass under the track with 13.8 feet of clear head room. TRACKS ON PILES. In crossing Islais Creek swamp the track will be supported on piles, temporarily, but a Sondition should be imposed in the fran- Chise that steel or masonry bridges Pe constructed for these tracks across creek. It should be required, except in the he. ot Mississippl, Q, R and § streets south, that plers for the support of any railraad bridge shall be placed in the center of the et. ."’l?he raflroad company should dedicate two strips of land along the westerly edges of Gould street and Diana street, 40 feet wide, for use as highways. The crossings which re- quire bridges at once are those at Mariposa, Twenty-second, Twenty-third, Army and Q streets and Thifteenth, Fifteenth, Williams and Paul avenues, Excursion to Pacific Grove. On Sunday, October 5, the Southern Pa- cific will run an excursion to Pacific Grove. Train leaves Third and Townsend- street depot at 7:15 a. returning, leaves Pacific Grove at 4:15 p. m.

Coogan called the court’s attention several times to the manner in which Louderback voiced his objections to his questions, finally saying: Your Honer, I protest against that fellow's continuous interrup- tions.” Louderback lost not a moment in shout- ing that he keenly felt the sting of Coo- gan’s remark and sought a physical en- counter. ‘When quiet was restored Judge Troutt demanded an apology, which was forth- coming in very short order. It was has- tened perhaps by an intimation from the court that a heavy fine for contempt would result if the angry lawyers did not make peace. — TIENTSIN, Sept. 26.—Russla to-day will officially hand over the Shanhalkwan-New- chwang railway to China. e —————————————————————— NEW ADVERTISEMENTS, BOSTON’S BARBER REGULATIONS Board of Health Orders Sterilization of All That Barbers Use on Customers.
