Dimond, which arrived yesterda | days from Honolulu, reports that June at 11:30 a. m., in latitude 37.42 north, ongitude 12452 west, he sighted a lot wreckage, and at 8:45 p. m. of the same day, when about fifty-two miles due west of the Farallones, the Dimond passed close to the wreck of a vessel bottom up. It was too dark for those n the barkentine to ascertain the iden- tity of the derelict or to form any con- clusion as to her size or rig. She | seemed to be from 150 to 200 feet long | and was apparently wooden. There was | too much sea on to admit of any closer | scrutiny. | The Dimond brought 10,000 bags of | sugar and other cargo. F. M. Rose, W. J. March and Mrs. W. M. Butler and child came up on the barkentine as | passengers. ‘While rounding to off Black Point at | 11:30 o'clock yesterday morning the Di- | mond lost her starboard anchor and | sixty fathoms of chain.

The de- tails he was able to furnish were so meager and there are so many vessels off shore at this time that any surmise would be mere guesswork. Many local ship-owners will be anxious until some- thing more is learned of the wreck. R —— Trumpet at Fort Point. A great improvement, of which all naviga- tors of the bay and adjacent waters are loud i | in their approval, has just been installed and | g Unitea b s warned incoming ships of the dangers ncealed in the waters of the Golden Gate nded the death kmell of many a has been superseded by a frective contrivance. The bell will not r be heard except in the clearest weather and as an auxiliary only It has been demonstrated, owing to certain atmospheric conditions, that the sound of a bell at sea level, especially lence of fogs, is deceptive and at times diffi- cult to locate, even by the most experienced scaman. The presence of bluffs in the vicinity of Fort Point increases this difficulty, owing to the echoes which are incidental to the lo- cality. No matter how familiar the navigator may be with the geography of the bay, there are times when to determine the distance or of the clang of a bell is entirely be- powers s reason the Government has Installec apparatus, which emits a sound i blasts and will be easily ai short erni- ble over an area six to eight miles in diam- eter. The new trumpet, which is of the second er, is located on the northwest bastion of | the old fort, at the highest elevation, and is bhoused In a solid stone structure of substan- tial construction The trumpet will be ope: ated by duplicate Hornsby-Akroyd engines, each of five horsepower capacity, with air compressors on the same Dplate. The pressed air is forced into steel tanks, from which it is conducted through pipes to the reed box of trumpet and by automatic a rangement released, causing a blast of five n duration, three times a minute. engines have a capacl of twenty- t cublc feet of alr every sixty seconds at pressure of seventy-five pounds with 150 olutions. The trumpet is of iron, having a length of three feet and a diameter of ten inches In its widest part. Colonel Handbury. Lighthouse Department of the district, expects the mew trumpet to be ready for service the coming week TR s e A Curacao Brings Treasure. | The Pacific Coast Steamship Company's Curacac, Captain Paulsen, arrived yesterday afternoon from Guaymas and way ports.

[RECOMMENDS LOWER CRADE City Engineer Reports on! the Leveling of Mission Street at Cortland Avenue FAVORS NEW ROADWAY Project Would Leave Undis- turbed All the Intersect- ing Thoroughfares East City Engineer Woodward filed a re- port yesterday with the Board of Pub- lic Works relative to lowering the grade of Mission street from Cortland ave- nue to Bosworth street. The reoprt says that a benefit will result from the | lowering of the grade, but if any change is made it should be sufficient [ to effect a considerable reduction in the | display In question, attempted to test gradients. The cuts required at the | various intersections would range rrom, the Supervisors’ one foot at St. Mary’s street to seven- teen feet at Highland avenue. The side | streets would have to be cut all the Way | injunction to prevent W. R. Hewitt, | from one to.eight feet and the prop: erty fronting thereon would be consid- erably damaged. The report continues: Another plan to produce the desired improve- ment would be by means of a new street to the west of and parallel with Mission street, which | could be constructed with the proper gradients, | leaving Mission street at its present elevation. The necessary land could be acquired by pur- | chase or under condemnation proceedings, and as the improvements are not of great value it would appear that the expenses would not ex- ceed that of the first proposition. This plan would, moreover, have the great advantage of leaving undisturbed all streets to the east of Mission street. The streets running westerly from Mission street would be bridged over the | new street. In this connection it would be well to con- sider the advisability of raising the grade of Mission street from Bosworth street to Silver avenue. This is also a most desirable Improve- ment and could be accomplished at the same time at comparatively little additional expense by using the excavated material in making the fill. \ F. C.

The United States inspectors of steam vessels at this port declare that great injustice has been done them by the criticisms of which, taking the disaster on the General Slocum at New York as a text, declares that the local inspectors have been negligent in passing unseaworthy vessels as fit for service. Inspector John K. Bulger, speak for himself and Inspector Bolles, last evening: g said It 18 charged that at the time of the Klon- | | dike rush “‘nearly all the floating coffins of the world came to the port of San Francisco and ! were allowed by the Inspectors of Hulls and Boilers to ply their nefarious trade to Alaska.” | An honest man will not make an accusation ' of that sort without backing it with names, Let the evening newspaper give us the names of any unseaworthy vessel that we passed dur- | ing either the Klondike or the Philippine rush, Can its editors name any such boat passed by us? If not, he should withdraw his general- ization. The facts directly contradict his assertion. We condemned many vessels. The Professor Morse, which had been passed by the inspect- | was brought round here | ors at New Orleans, for the Alaskan trade, but we condemned her nd her bopes are now lying over at Oakland. Not a single accident due to unseaworthiness occurred_on any vessel passed by us, either for the Philippine or for the Alaskan trade. It unfit boats were engaged in the Alaskan business, they did not go_from this port. We have no jurisdiction at Seattle or outside of San Francisco. Wo have steadfastly condemned every boller or hull that was unsound, and we challenge contradiction on this point, not In glittering generalities, but With names of the unfit ves sels which 1t 18 claimed were passed by us.. — s Fires Shots at Burglar. John McCarthy, 99 South Broderick street, reported to the police yesterday that late Wednesday night he heard a noise in a shed where he had a wireless telephone apparatus. He and his brother, Francis, went out to in- vestigate and saw a man breaking the lock of the door. The man fled at their approach and McCarthy fired He thinks one of the bullets took effect, as the man was seen to stumble. e i Fourth of July at Del Monte. 1f you want quiet sport, a game of golf on the links, a dip in the surf, or salmon fishing on Monterey Bay, why not go to Hotel del Monte for your Fourth of July holiday?

The Novelty Sign Company, which | supplies the apparatus for the night | in the Superior Court the validity of ordinance requiring | Inspection of all electrical connections. ‘,The company obtained. & temporary chief of the city’s Department of Elec- tricity, from cutting the wires of those who had no certificates. In his affi- davit filed in response to the suit Hew- | itt said that unless the court restrain- ed him he would give the sign owners | five days’ notice to pay up, and failing, he would cut off their electricity. Judge Seawell yesterday granted the city’'s motion to dissolve the company’s | injunction. The Judge’s opinion, which will interest the business community, is here given in full: An action cannot be maintained solely for the purpcse of determining the question of constitutionality of a statute or municipal ordinance I a public officer, claiming to act under an unconstitutional statute or ordi- nance, should threaten to commit an act which would cause irreparable injury to an- other, such person would be entitled to an in- junctien to prevent the threatened Injury. It ordinances No. 267 and No. 787 ars unconstitu- ticnal they will afford no justification for any interference on the part 0f defendant with the electrical appliances which have been installed by plantiff for its customers; and defendant might be restrained by Injunction from inter- fering with any electrical work which plaintift was about to do. But such Injunction could properly issue only in reference to some par- ticular work which plaintiff was about to do. The mere allegation that plamtiff might and probably would, in the future, Install electrical appliances would not be a sufficient basis for such relief. An action, based upon such alle- gation, would be merely an attempt to procure | a decision as to the validity of a municipal | ordinance, without any particular act having been done or threatened by the defendant. | The grievance complained of is that defend- ant threatens to disconnect from the wires, by means of which they are operated, certain electrical appliances which have been installed | by plaintiff for its customers. Those appliances are owned wholly by other persons, and plain- tiff has no proprietary interest in them. If the defendant should, without legal justifica- tion attempt to commit a trespass upon the property of other persons, it is a matter of in- difference to plaintiff whether they will resist or submit. If they do not resist it will be | because they do not choose to avall themselves of their undoubted right to defend their prop- | erty against unlawful invasion. The theory | upon which plaintiff bases its right to an In- | Junction s that the threatened acts, If per- formed, will injure plaintif’s business, and | | deprive It of the patronage of its former cus- tomers. But how can plaintiff be held respo: sible by any reasonable person for illegal acts of the defendant which he, himself, could | have lawfully prefénted? ’ In my opinfon this action is merely an a tempt on the part of plaintiff, without having any Interest in the subject of the action, to obtain.an adjudication as to the validity of a unicipal ordinance. The motion to dissolve the injunction will, therefore, be granted. — ee———— | MILKMEN FILE OBJEOTIONS TO DAIRY REGULATIONS | | 1 4 { PSR | | No Agreement With Health Board | Reached Because of Radical Stand Taken by It. The Supervisors’ Health Committee ing objections to dairymen to the |rules and regulations which the { Board of Health desires to be incor- | ‘porated into an ordinance for the san- | itary conduct of dairies. The attorney | | for the dairymen said that the confer- | ence held with the Board of.Health | was not entirely satisfactory and the | changes proposed were too radical. He asked that the matter be taken up | again with the Board of Health before | | final action by the committee. M. Pullman did not think it advis- able to have another conference, say- | ing that no agreement would ever be | reached on some rules that he termed | unreasonable. For instance, the | Health Board did not want barley ' used for cows’ food, whereas Pullman argued experience had taught that barley was good food. This statement was corrected, it being the use of sour Lurley that was reported against. Dr. Ward, president of the Health Board, refused to consent to another meeting and presented the findings of the conference, saying an agreement had been reached. The dairymen claimed there was a misunderstanding, as the recommendations were too drastic. The recommendations were tuken up seriatim and the objections of the dairymen were heard. These related to ventilation, the provision i for window space, the double floors | for barns and the'drainage distance. The discussion on both sides be- came very lively and Dr. Ward asked the attorney for the dairymen if he meant that the Health Board had been tampering with the rules. The attorney replied that Dr. Ward could not put him in that position. Fur- ther hearing of the matter was post- 1 poned until next Wednesday at 10 la. m. i —————— NEW BEACH RESORT FILES ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION ‘Well Known Sporting Men Said to Be Behind Company Taking Seal Rock House.
