He answered that no one in the California Petroleum Miners ociation was longer back of it. The last clause in the bill, which Sec- wh retary Deane says was passed two years ago, to which Secretary Deane alludes ‘n his letter, is as follow: oil used in bollers as fuel, for the of making am, shall be crude pe- n and shall stand a flash test of at least degrees Fahrenhelt. This section applies only to cities and does not apply to bollers used the wells for operating purposes or to rail- ad locomotives These are the provisions that have cavsed the angry protests of the ofl pro- cers and fuel consumers. RALSTON SENDS REPLY. He Declares That He Will Not With- draw the Bill. Special Dispatch to The Call. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRAMENTO, Jan. 30.—Every effort is being made to induce Senator Ralston to withdraw his now well- known test measure. Letters have been coming to him in numbers and his colleagues have been telling him of advices they have been receiving from their constituents to vote against the bill. As was published this morn- ing. he will not under any circumstances with- draw the bill, as he believes that there should oil | be some law regulating the tiash test of oil. What that test should be he hopes to learn next Monday night, When experts from all gec- tions of the State will give opinions, Ralston was somewhat surprised to receive to-day a letter from Dr. C. T. Dean, secre- tary of the California Petroleum Miners' As- soclation, asking him to withdraw the bill, He sent 'a letter in 1eply, declining the sug- gestion and expressing his reasons for doing so. The Senator among other things says: I have been very harshly criticized for having introduced this bill and up to the present time have not received from your as- soclation any arguments that could be ad- vanced to show that its passage would be of benefit to the ol industry. It seems that I was permitted to stand alone and receive the censure of the ofl producers for having in- troduced a measure with the conditions and Provisions of which I was totally unfamiliar. Therefore I reiterate that I will not withdraw the bill until a full and complete hearing has been had from those interested. Hoping that you will be able to be present Monday even- re is to) mu chance of being adopted, but at stake for the oil men for them to take any chances, and they will therefore endzavor to show tha committee that no special legisla- tion with reference to the use of crude oil as fuel is needed at this time. SHERIFFS TbO EXTRAVAGANT. New Officers Make Things Lively for Secretary Melick. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRAMENTO, Jan. B0.—Not the least of the troubles of | Secretary Walter S. Melick of the State Board of Examiners is that of learning the intricate and multitudinous duties of his office. He has other troubles and chief among them that of teaching the new Sheriffs who were elécted in the varlous counties of ‘the’ State what their dutiez a At the last election twenty-seven new Sheriffs were elected and #omp of them had had not tha slightest ex- perience in the matter of making oug their vouchers and ‘returnsg for such business that of transporting insame persons to asy lums or felons to penitentiaries or sending out of the State to return fugitives from justice who hag been captured in other parts of the country. In all such matters the officer: a claim against the State for their mi and actual expenses and the experienced of cers have long ago learned that all such claims are closely scrutinized and only the proper actual expenses allowed newly elected Sheriffs, acting vnder ssion that their actual éxpenses would be allc have spent mon without stint. Their bills for meals, say in San Fran- cisco, whil: they were on the way to Ban Quentin with prisoners, have been so high as to lead to the suspic! that they had “blowing themselves,”” Those who have been thus Indiscreet in the matter of expending their mone; thinking the State would reimburse them, will pay for the lesson they will have to lea for all such bills are ned to the last possible degree, and wiil take a large portion of a month'e sals for some of the fficers to make up what they have innocently | spent. All of this causes work for the sec- retary cf the State Board of Examiners, but he takes 1t philosophically and heart cuts out items from the bills officers, ““They Melick on it of will to-day ing some of them may they will not make the same mistake again It i3 not our purpose to refect any proper and learn in time,” sald Secretary The lesson which we are giv- prove a costly one, hut just claim, but when a Sheri containing an item of say Ban Francisco we do not think the State should pay it and that blll is, of course, re- duced and sent back for correction.'’ FARES ON STREET RAILROADS. Measure Introduced for a San Diego . Company’s Benefit. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRAMENTO, Jan. 30. Ward and In the House by Barnes regulating street rallroad fares has been eyed curiously by legislative entomologists, but Barnes makes a simple explanation of its purpose that tends to elear up doubts. The bill is an amendment to that now fixing the rate of fare for a con- tinuous trip within the bounds of a munici- pality at 5 cents and provides that, except- ing in cities of the first class, which includes San Francisco only, the rate shall not exceed 10 cents for any distance under three miles. The bili is introduced to permit of the bullding of a road projected in San Diego," sald Barnes. '‘The city of San Diego is larger ‘n area than the State of Rhode Island and tnis company wants to bulld a Mne sixteen miles long within ifs limits. 10 make them for 5 cents.” Some objection has been made to the bill on the ground that it might permit the ralsing of fares in other citles. —_—— LIMIT FOR BOXING BOUTS. Bunkers Proposes That They Be Not More Than Four Rounds. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRAMENTO, Jan. 30.—As was predicted in The Call, Sena- tor Bunkers to-day introduced a bill restrict- ing all boxing bouts to four rounds in dura- sends in a bill for a dinner in carry passengers that distance tion. It reads ““Every person whq engages in, | TCOUTAKES, pPromotes, arranges or manages any ring or prizefight, or any other premeditated fight or contention, without dendly weapons, either as principa agent, employe, aid, second, umpire, surgeon or otherwise, is punishable by imprisonment in the State Prison not exceeding two years. ‘And all boxing or sparring matches which @ irivimisivieimivelreim ik @ To Cure a Cold in One Day Take Im.m;‘ I;Mtvm Quinine Tablets, Al rugglsts retu money if it falls to cure.

Realizing that If the bill was to have any chance at all the amount asked for would have to be cut, the committee de- clded to strike out the clause by which it was intended to expend $20,000 under the direction of the superintendent of experiment stations | in the effort to determine what distribution | and quantity of water is necessary for the pro- | duction of “crops In various sections of the State.

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRAMENTO, Jan. 30.—The amendments to the city charter | | of Los Angeles which were ratified by both houtes of the Legislature last week were re- ported to-day as having been correctly en- grossed and enrolled. The effect of this is to and place these amendments in force at once, and Mayor Snyder is now in almost full control | of the government of Los Angeles. The amendments place much more power In the hands of the Mayor of that city than he | has ever before enjoved. "He has the appoint- | ment of the several governing boards at his disposal and in other ways his authority is in- creased. The amendments provide for other radical changes in the city'’s municipal gov- ernment. for they include provisions for the initiative, the referendum and the recall.

Directors Believe That Com- bination Is Better Than Competition. — TOPEKA, Kans., Jan. 30.—General Man- sger Mudge of the Santa Fe to-day sald of the Santa Fe-Rock Island ajliance: The Santa Fe will bulld from Dodge City to Liberal, Kans., connecting the Santa Fe main line with the Rock Island at once. From Lib- eral 1o some point in New Mexico, where the Santa Fe cut-off crosses the Rock Island, a dis- tance of 350 miles, the Santa Fe will use the Rock Island tracks. From this point the Rock Island will use the Santa Fe tracks. to the Pacific Coast. This will probably blot out the plan of both roads for rebuilding the here- tofore proposed New Mexico opposition lines. The plan for rebuilding the Santa Fe's | Pecos Valley lines and the Panhandle di- vision will come to naught, for the through traffic of the Santa Fe will not be sent through Wichita, Wellington and Alva, but will go west from Newton to Hutchinson, Kinsley and Dodge City, thence south on the proposed new line to Liberal. When asked whether or not the Rock Island has secured any voice in Santa Fe affairs by means of purchase of stock, Mudge sald: That is something which I know nothing at all about. All I know is that at present it is the plan to build our lines south from Dodge City instead of making our main line over the Panhandle as was contemplated. The Santa Fe and Rock Island have for some time been on the verge of a serious conflict and the consummation of the traffic alliance has been brought about is believed, by the fear that such a c flict might result disastrously to both roads.
