City Attorney Lane has advised the Board of Public Works that the United Railroads has no authority to erect poles along Church street to comvey electric power generated at North Beach to a distributing station in the Mission, thence to be sent out over its various street rail- way routes, unless it obtaine the consent of the Board of Supervisors to use the streets desired upon such terms and con- ditions as the city may impose. In his opinion Lane Says: | The Unitea Railroads has no right by virtue of any franchise which it now holds to erect and maintain poles upon streets along which their cars are not operated. I am not aware of any general ordinance under which either | the Board of Public Works or the Department of Electricity has power to grant such a priv- ilege, except in conformity with city ordi- nances. The Board of Supervisors must de- termine what the policy of the city in this respect shall be and the charter provisions requiring competitive bidding, payment of per- centage of gross receipts and reservation of the right in the board named to reguiate the charges for using such franchise must be d- Tiered -to, As a result of the City Attorney’s opin- ion, the United Rallroads filed a petition, which was referred to the Street Com- mittee, asking permission to erect poles | and place wires for the transmission of | electrical power from its power-house at | North Point and Buchanan streets to sub- stations, and thence to be distributed to the several electric car lines, making use of the same along the following streets: Commencing at the corner of Beach and Laguna streets and thence running westerly along Beach street to Buchanan, to Bay, to Webster, to Hermann, to Church, to Thirtieth, to Whitney, to Palmer, to Chenery. Also com- mencing atl the corner of Webster and Turk streets and thence westerly along Turk street to the corner of Turk and Filimore streets, The petition of the United Lailroads for permission to lay a pipe-line under cer- tain streets from North Beach to its pow- er-house at Bryvant and livision streets for the purpose of conveying fuel ofl thereto, was also referred to the Street Committee. The streets desired by the corporation, for use in_the construction of the pipe-line, are Sixteenth, South, Seventh, Berry, Alameda, York, Bay, La- &una, North Point and Buchanan, e A : SAUSALITO BELLE WHO WILL | BECOME THE BRIDE OF WILLIAM M.

The colonist rates which went into ef- fect over the transcontinental lines on Sunday are expected to attract a large numbter of settlers to California during the next few months. There is existing at present, on the Atlantic Ocean steam- ship routes, an inviting low emigrant rate, which the local railroad officials believe will materfally benefit this State. Traffic Manager E. O. McCormick in discussing the matter yesterday said that he was confident the coming reports of west- bound passenger traffic would clearly demonstrate that California has a decided advantage afforded it by these joint rates in_increasing its industrious population. The colonist rate recently decided on | is really a one-way fare from New York, via the three following routes: All rail from New York to San Francisco, direct, $477; from New York, via Norfolk and Sunset route, $42 75; via steamer to New Orleans and thence by Sunset route, $39. The emigrant rates across the Atlantic from the principal European centers are given as follows: From Stockholm to New York, $31 50: other points in Sweden, $28 50; Wasa, Finland, tu ; Hamburg, $34; Bremen, $38 50; Havre, 51 60: Antwerp. $34; Genoa and Naples, $26 50 Paris, $33 50; Basle, Switzeriand, $35 90 Liverpool, - $27 75. London, 75; Queens: town, $27 75; Glasgow, $26 00; Southampton, 75; Rotterdam, $34. % The Southern Pacific officials base their calculationg on the increased number of settlers on information secured from the foreign agents of the company, who state that they are already besieged by peo- ple of moderate means who are eager to avall themselves of the cheap rates and either join relatives in California or es- tablish homes here for themselves, Orange Trees Not Damaged. SAN BERNARDINO, Feb. 16.—Careful inspection of all the orange trees in this valley shows that little if any damage has been done by the cold wave of the last few days.

Men - Arrested for Infringe- ment on a Reserve ( Go Free. { ) | | SEATTLE, Feb. 16.—Judge Hanford of | the United States Circuit Court decided | to-day that the regulation of the Interior | fringing on Government reserves is un- constitutional. The regulation provides that the Secre- tary of the Interior shall have power to prosecute all offenders and proceeds to name the penalties. The Constitution, Judge Hanford maintains, reserves the power of naming penalties in national matters to the legislative body only and consequently only Congress can pass such a law. In consequence of this ruling, James Wright, Charles McAllister and John Lit- tle, charged ,with allowing their sheep to | graze on the Government forest reserve | in Yakima County last summer, were dis- | charged.

The provisions also per- | taining to the raising of revenue for the support of the council were aliso sent back for correction. These revised sec- | tions will be again considered at the next | meeting of the convention when the con- | stitutfon will in all probability be adopt- ed as a whole. Several of the sections of the draft of the constitution as it came from the hands of the committee occasioned heated dis- cu This was especlally true of the provision referring to the representation which each union should be allowed in the Central Council. The members of the committee who drew up the constitution were desirous of keeping the number of representatives down so that the cemtral body would not.be an unwieldy institu- | tlon, incapable of transacting business | expeditiously. Many of the delegates de- | sired to give the unions as many dele- gates as possible, so that their interests | would be better guarded. The commit- | | teemen’s desire, however, prevailed and | the unions were limited practically to one | delegate each. The section which provided that a union should be represented in the Central | Council by the same delegates as in the Department Council occasioned prolonged argument. It was urged by the opposi- tion that too much work would be im- pcsed on a few men, while those in fa- | vor of the section claimed that the inter- ests of the union would be better looked after if the same men represented it in both Department and Central Council. The first section of the constitution pro- vides that the new body shall be known as the Central Labor Council of San Francisco. The council will be composed { of duly accredited delegates from such trade and labor organizations’ as shall ‘be | affillated with the Central Council and the department councils of their trade. It is | provid:a in the constitution that no union can remain a member of the Centra} Council it it secedes from it§ national or international union or from the Amerfcan Federation of Labor, —_— ASPECT OF TANNERS’ STRIKE, Labor Council Voices Views Doings of Employers. The San Francisco Labor- Council has issued a circular setting forth the status Union and the respective employers in Santa Resa, Santa Cruz and. Petaluma. It maintains that there ‘are now only striking craftsmen, but that their fight is hard and not promising immediate set- tlement. _ The Labor Council avers that-the em- ployers are trying to enforce conditions upon the strikers which are worse than those against which they first protested. President Benham's letter is in part as folicws: . “On every occasion when there came a time for mutual concessions the employers insisted that their men go back on worse terms than they had before the strike. The employers have attempted to deceive the public by announcements of suth con- ferences, but they are determined to de- stroy the tanners' unions in California.” ‘Will Hold Their Conference.

Soloists Are Wroth at a Sun- | day Afternoon Music Edict. Special Dispateh to The Call SAN JOSE, Feb. 16.—The leading solo- | ists and musicians who hold engagements in several local churche: are indignant at an edict that ha: ne forth that they must not appear in sacred concerts out- side of the churches. A couple of weeks ago the management of one of the theaters inaugurated Sun- | day afterncon sacred concerts, but has | been obliged to discontinue them because of the action of the churches. These (‘n.)n- | certs were to be under the supervision of Mrs. Mary Weaver-McCauley. Homer | Henley of San Francisco was the | ture of the first concert. The other mu- siclans and singers were drawn from the various churches. These concerts opened under bright auspices, but the unext few days following the musicians and singers were given to understand they must not | appear at the theater. In fact, two of the churches are said to have issued a positive ban against the theater concerts fea- and their singers were told if they ap- peared they could not expect thing from the church. The Rev. N. A. Haskell, pastor of the Unitarian church, took the matter up in a sermon last evening. He said not only had the orthodox churches condemned sa- cred concerts held outside their walls, but that the same churches were not friendly to concerts held in the Unitarian church. He said: y have gone so far as to reque the singers in their churches who ha appeared in our services not to sing aga in the Unitarian church. There seems to be a concerted action on the part of the leading orthodox churches of this city against this church, which they fear is growing too rapidly in public favor.” | SUCCESSFUL ENTERTAINMENT | BY SACRED HEART PARISH Programme of Unusual Merit Is Pre- sented to Large Audience at Alhambra Theater. The musical and dramatic entertain ment under the auspices of Sacred Heart parish for the benefit of the Sacred Heart School at the Alhambra Theater last evening was a most artistic and financlal success. The theater was filled to the doors and a tidy sum was netted for the worthy object. The two-act comedy drama by the Beta Sigma Dramatic Club was a feature of the entertainment, and the amateur Thes- plans covered themselves with glo rivaling many productions of the same plece that have been presented in this city. A clever concelt entitled “A Lesson With the Fan” was well received and was participated in by several young la- | { dles of the parish, all in colonial cds- | tume. Miss Fannie E. Ryan rendered a ccntraito solo entitled agnetic Waltz,"” | by Arditl, in a most delightful manner, and responded to an encore with “A Japa- | | nese Love Song.” The vocal sextet, by twelve young la- dies and gentlemen of the parish, was one of the hits of the evening. The music | had been arranged by Miss G. Hopkins, | anfl the young ladies, attired in beautiful creations of white, showed careful train- ing. George Hamilton Ryan with his many witticisms and laughable songs kept his auditors in a howl during his act.
