    Resolution to Impeove a Stbeet.—If a resolution of intention to improve a street in San Francisco provides that the street shall be improved where necessary, the Board of Supervisors acquires no jurisdiction, and the assessment is void.

Heydenfeldt, 46 Cal. 68, and People v. Clark, ante, 456, the judgment and order denying a new trial are affirmed. Remittitur forthwith.
