Ray of San Franelsco arrived here to-day in the interests of the Yosemite Stage and Turnpike Company and of the | | Southern Pacific Company to report upon the feasibility of the change contemplat- He has ex- amined the grades between here and Ray- mond apd says that the sixty-five-mile ride can be made with more comfort as well as quicker in an automobile than in one of the old time stages. The ride will also be made with a greater degree of | safety, for the cars will be equipped with powerful brakes and there will be no horses to become frightened at objects along the route. Ray proposes to use twelve-passenger cars equipped with powerful gasoline en- gines and states that not more than ten gallons of gasoline will be used in mak- ing the trip from Raymond to the Yo- | semite. This will mean a big saving in money to the stage company, which now uses thirty-two horses for each stage over the same length of travel and at an ex- pense of $1 for each horse. bodsaR e sy TR McGINNITY AGAIN WINS TWO GAMES IN ONE DAY Schmidt Is Put Out of Contest After Heated Argument With Umpire.

English, vice president and general manager of the Contra Costa Water company, underwent a second | operation for appendicitis this morning, and while he has rallied from the immedi- ate results of the operation, there is still serious doubts whether he will be able to stand the ghock and strain. This was the second operation of the kind that Mr. English has undergone, which makes the result more uncertain. The operation was conducted by Dr. D. D. Edward J. Rice, and proved to be a most difficult one. At the first operation the appendix had not been secured and it | was declded to-day that it would not be wise to tax the patient's strength too {much, and the appendix was not searched for too closely. A very large abcess was | found, and when this had been removed |it was decided to allow the patient to | recover without further use of the knife. | The condition of Mr. English to-night was sald to be much better than was ex- pected, though exceedingly grave. His temperature was véry little above normal, and his pulse, though high, was strong: Dr. Crowley said that he considered the patient’s condition very good, but that it would be two or three days before any- thing definite could be said as to recov- ~ GRAND ARMY. !

W RSt ALAMEDA, Aug. 8.—As a result of con- ferences with the City Trustees, the exec- utive committee of the citizens' advisory committee of fifty, chosen by the muni- cipal governing body, has, upon the sug- | gestion of President J. F.

It was first proposed that the executive | committee meet with the railroad officials, ! fifty the result of its conferences and continue along this line until negotiations were concluded and action taken on the applications for the franchises by the City Trustees. Now it is planned to have the executive committee submit a plan of procedure to the committee of fifty Mon- day night, and if it is approved, to go ahead in the following manner: Have the City Attorney frame an ordinance embracing the provisions demanded of the | Southern Pacific by | These are for twenty-five year franchises; pa: | ment to the city monthly of $500: a 213-cent fare within the city limits; malntenance of the local train service up to the present stand- ard; together wigh other stipulations of lesser | Importance as agreed upon. This ordinance is then to be introduced at the regular session of the City Trustees on the night of the 17th | inst. and a copy of the same forwarded to the Southern Pacific management. The of- ficials of the company can them arrange a confersnce with the committee of fifty or the executive committee of that body or with the City Trustees, as it sees fit. After the or- dinance is introduced it may be amended in any way that both sides agree on and it is thought it will be ready for_passuge by the City Trustees on Sevtember 7. It is believed *that the principal terms which the executive committee desire embodied in the ordinance will be con- ceded by the Southern Pacific. Manager Julius Krutschnitt was informed to-day by Major C. L. Tilden, chairman of the committee of fifty, that the change in the committee’s plan of proceeding in the ne. | gotiations would make the conference set for next Monday unnecessary. It is expected that the next conference of the committeemen and the Southern Pacific people will be held in Alameda, and the City Trustees will join with the commit- tee in the meeting. ————— Couches, . bed sofas, cane amd wood chairs.
