R NOR, Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, May 9. The injunction against the completion of the Pacific Incinerating Company's plant, asked for by property-owners in | the vicinity of Twenty-sixth and Magnolia | streets, where the works are located, was | denied by Judges Melyin, Hall, Ellsworth | and Ogden, sitting in bank, this after-| noon. On the other hand, the contract or franchise between the city and the Pa- cific Incinerating Company was declared | vold by the Judges. | The decision cuts both ways. Both | sides won and lost. The citizens who | wished to have the works stopped were defeated and the injunction denied. Thelr [ attorneys, however, also asked that the | contract beiween the city and the Pacific Incinerating Company be declared vold | and in this they were successful. 1 The decision of the Judges in regard to | the latter part of their complaint was | based upon the fact that in looking over | the proceedings of the City Council the | contract had not been let in accordance | with the statute of 1891 in regard to the | granting of franchises and the letting of | contracts and was therefore void. The in- junction was denied upon the ground | that no allegations were made in the complaint that the works would be a nuis- ance. The decision to-day means that the in- cinerating company has its works nearly completed, but that it has no exclusive franchise from the city and compulsory patrongae of the plant cannot be en- forced. Native Daughters. RAND PRESIDENT ELIZA D. KEITH paid her official visit un- expectedly and unannounced to Alta | Parlor May 2, the night when the dele- gates to the Grand Parlor were elected to represent the parlor in the grand body | that is to meet in Red Bluff.

FOR NEW ROTEL Berkeley’s Leading Men Take the First Steps. Form Corporation Designed to Build a Needed Im- provement. Berkeley Office San Francisco Cail, 2148 Center Street, April 9. There are good prospects for a new hotel in Berkeley, the one needed improvement that has been talked about and urged and agitated for a long time. A body of local men have formed the nucleus for a cor- poration to build a hotel, and if they are successful in selling all thelr stock Berke- ley will have a great big hotel one of these days. The Berkeley Hotel Company is the name these gentlemen have chosen for their corporation. The articles were flled to-day in the County Clerk's office. The subscribers to the stock are: H. B. Grif- fiths, 50 shares; Francis Ferrier, 50 shares: E. C. Marliave, 10 shares; G. A. Wagner, 50 shares, and W. R. Pond, 1 share. There are 200 shares altogether, valued at $100 each. In the preamble of thelr articles of in- corporation the incorporators say that the purpose is to build a hotet of 225 rooms, fitted with all the latest improvements and comforts. It will be called the Hotel Berkeley. A number of sites have been considered and most likely some place on a hillside will be the chosen spot. ECLIRES AR N THE UNIONS | Mason Builders’ Associ- ation Resolves to Fight. NEW YORK, May 9.—A meeting of the Mason Builders' Association, at which more than 100 members, representing a capital of $60,000,000, were present, was held to-night. These resolutions were passed: ‘“Whereas, The Material Dealers’ Asso- ciation and the Association of Lumber Dealers have closed their yards as a de- fensive measure against aggression that points unerringly to a determination on the part of organized labor to dictate as to whom, by whom and in what manner material shall be handled and delivered, thereby controlling the source of supply | and closing the circuit of union domina- tion in the building industry of this city “Resolved, That the Mason Builders’ Assoctation pledges its undivided support | to the ald of the associatiops of dealers in their efforts to maintain the integrify and management of their own business; and, further “Resolved, That no member of the Ma- son Builders’ Assoclation shall contract for or accept building material from any firtn or individual not a member of one or the other of sald dealers’ association un- til the termination of the contest for dom- ination on the one hand and self-pres- | ervation on the other.” SR TUnion Enlarges Its Scope. MILWAUKEE, May 9.—The Interna- tional Machinists’ Convention to-day took | what is probably the most important step since the organization of the assoclation when it passed section 1 of article 1 of the subordinate lodge constitution, adgit- ting all employes of a machine shop to By this step the association expects to increase its membership in two years from 75,000 to 200,000, and in five years to be equal to the Miners’ Union.

Wants Poor of Kansas City to Have Benefit of Good Musiec. B LA A KANSAS CITY, Mo., May %.—Arthur E. Stillwell, president of the Orient Railroad, now building from Kansas City to Topolo- bampo, Mexico, was so impressed by last night’s concert that he has bought the convention hall for both concerts to oe given by the Theodore Thomas orchestra to-morrow. The Convention Hall seats 15,000 peoplc and the entire house was bought for both performances and will be thrown open te the public free of charge. But one reservation was made, Stillwell reserving the boxes, which He has placed on sale at $5 each. The first plan was to buy the Merity Tupper balconies which seats 2200 people and throw these open to the poor and different charitable organ- izations, but this was not satisfactory and the entire house was bought. According to Frederick A. Stock, director of the or- chestra, this will be the first time that the Thomas Orchestra has ever played to a free house. The orchestra will be as- sisted by the soloists, Frank Croxton and Miss Jennie Osborne and also by the local oratorio scciety. The concerts will be of a semi-sacred character. “It has long been the dream of my life to see Kansas City have a place where it could have regular Sunday concerts,™ said Mr. Stillwgjl, “now that the oppor- tunity offers, 1 am going to see if the concerts will be appreciated by the peo- ple. I am looking forward to the time when enough interest will be taken in this question of Sunday concerts to make It possible to raise an endowment that will be sufficient to install a large organ and pay an organist who can devote his time to the giving of regular Sunday con- certs for the people.” UNIVERSITY EVENTS BERKELEY, May 9.—The Rev. F. W. Clampett, rector of Trinity Episcopal Church in San Francisco, will preach the baccalaureate sermon for the class of 08 to-morrow afternocn at 3:30 o'clock in St. Mark’s Episcopal Church. Martin Kel- logg. former president of the university, will preside. Roscoe Warren Lucy will direct the full cholr of St. Mark's. The senfor class will march in a body from Stiles Hall to the church. . 1. E. Roadhouse, 4, of the agricultural department has engaged to study prob- lems in irrigation in the San Joaquin Valley during the summer. He will make exhaustive and accurate experiments to determine the exact amount of water used by plants in their growth, the amount lost by evaporation and the loss by seepage. From this data the value of water to plant life will be determined. N — CHARITY WORK IN NEW YORK CITY Charity finds a wide fleld of expression in New York. In all there are probably 2000 different institutions, conducted by | churches, by societies, and supported by subscriptions, by the endowments of the wealthy or by the persistent efforts of in- dividuals. There is a charity for ‘he mother before her child is born, for the city has its free lying-in hospitals; there is a chanity for the new-born babe, should it be deserted by its parents, for it finds its way Into the care of the organizations for foundlings. There are many hotwes for boys and girls, some of these homes modest and poor, some of them most costly and elaborate; there are free | schools of all sorts for youths and yourg girls; there are free employment places for grown men and women who are out ot work and unfortunate; and then there are homes for the aged, for men and for women, and for husbands and wives to- gether when their days of strength and usefulness have passed and have left them unprovided for in their last years. Ard, finally; there is a charity which con- for Instance, whose may provide against going to the potter's fleld, securing a last resting place for their bones that is not a pau per's grave. Thus to the new-born babe, to the strong man and to tottering old age is the hand of charity extended.— Leslie’s Weekly. ADVERTISEMENTS. DR. JOHN L.
