The claims for damages to result to property owners through the operation by the Southern Pacific Company of a steam railroad from the county line to Mission Bay, filed on behalf of clients by Kierce & Gillogley, H. S. Robinson, M. Mullany, Grant & Cushing and C. F. Adams were referred to the City En- gineer for examination, adjustment and report.

The Supervisors’ Police Committee yes- terday reported back to the board with- out recommendation the proposed ordi- nance permitting coursing matches or rices between dogs by allowing betting thereon within the inclosure of the cours- ing track only for a limited period of ¢ ome calendar year. Shannon appeared on behalf ol the Ingleside Coursing Association. He said that his organization was ldgislated out of existence by a former Board of Svpervisors some three years ago at the time when horse racing was put under the ban. Supervisor Curtis asked if coursing could be run profitably if it was prohib- ited on Sunday. Curtis sald he objected to the' gambling feature of the sport on Sundays. Shannon replied that the betting was an insignificant part of the sport and the at- tendance is larger on Sundays than on other days. Many people travel to the coursing park for the ride and with no | idea of betting, and it is, in fact, a “‘poor —_———— Mrs. Bell Leases Property.

Towe, in fact, wanted test fixed at 150 degrees, satisfaction at a question of W. A* Spinks as to what Towe referred to the recent disaster on the steamer Progreso. Professor W. B.

Rising said that lesions from -ofl “could be prevented A. M. Hunt, manager of the Independent Electric Light and Power Company, said his company had contracts for oil that tlashed at less than 130 degrees and the contracts would have to be abrogated if the test limit were placed at that figure. The committee referred the communica- tion of the Fire Commission regarding the needs of the Fire Department for ad- ditional hydrants and mains to the Water Committee, with the recommendation that the Spring Valley Company be requested to perform the work. The committee recommended a resolu- tion authorizing the City Engineer to make plans for an auxiliary salt water system fur the better protection from fire fires had occurred through the use of oil | by proper ventilation. - Rising said if oil that flashes at 200 degrees were stored in a tank without ventilation it would | explode. The raliroad companies are us- ing oil that flashes at less than 110 de- grees. 18 ’ tate, 1071 ADVERTISEMENTS. Clearance Sale Before Stock-Taking Now On At &G.GUMP GO, Art Store 113 Geary 3t.
