SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 13.-Act-
iors was recently begun in the
TWenty-third District Court by Tax
ColIector-elect Tillson to GUST Will
liam Ford from Office on the ground
that he, Tillson, had been elected
to fill the unexpired term caused
bv the death of William Mitchell.
Tuesday, Judge Thornton issued an
order that relator, Tillson, recover
possession of the office of Tax Col
lector of San Francisco, and judg-
ment of custer entered against
William Ford The case was
promptly carried on appeal to the
Supreme Court, which, according
to a dispatch received this morning
from Sacramento, has affirmed the
Judgment of the Twenty-third Dis
trict Court, and a remittitur was
ordered to issue forthwith. The
decision of the Supreme Court set
Ties the question of the short term
in the three contested offices, name
ly, Supervisor for the Third Ward,
Tax Collector and Auditor, and
those who have been holding to
these places will now be compelled
to vacate. Ford, the present in
cumbent of the Tax Collectors Of
flee, took the decision good natured-
ly, saying there was nothing to do
but obey the order of the Court.
Mr.. Ford will not take any proceed
ings in the salary pledge contest;
He will turn over the books and
papers of the Tax Collectors Office
to his successor as soon as the order
of the Court is received. Mayor
Bryant takes the view that the de-
cision of the Court also covers the
Authorship and Supervisorship of
the Third Ward, offices held re-
spectively by Colin M. Boyd and
Thomas A. Tamser. Auditor Boyd
accepts the decision gracefully, and
says he will abide its results.
