LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
State Board OF EQUALIZATION,


rho State Board of Equalization had
under consideration yesterday and the day
previous the question Of assessment of the
property Of the Central and Southern Pa
cific Railroad corporations. In consider
ing the subject f. Black Ryan, as agent Of
she companies, gave information in answer
70 inteTogations by members of the Board,
and also suggested the extensive damages
caused by the foods on the Southern road
during the past spring.
AS Mr.. Ryan was about 70 leave ycster-
day afternoon for the Bay, surprising the
inquiry concerning these roads had been
concluded it was stated that ID. NJ. Delmas
would appear before the Board during the
afternoon, at the suggestion Of Controller
Dunn, and make an argument, giving his
views as TO the manner Of determining tie
value of the properties Of these corpora
lions. When Mr.. DclmaS came before the
Board there were also present Governor
StOneman and Clarence GreathOuse.
As he was about to commence his argu-
ment, Mr.. Ryan protested against any
c% pGrte argument by Dclmas; that no ar
gument whatever had been made upon the
part of the companies and that for Delmas
10 appear now in such manner looked like
an attempt to take snap Judgment against
the interests he Ryan) represented. He
asked that, as he was not an orator him
self and could not cope with the attorney
who was appearing against the companies,
another day be set, when Mr.. Raymond
might be present and hear Delmas' argu-
ncnt and have an opportunity to reply 10
it. He said it was well known that Mr..
Delmas was inimical to every interest Of
the railroad companies, and his er pdyte
argument would not be just
Controller Dunn objected to the insinu-
alton made and to the language used by
Mr.. Ryan.
Mr. Ryan answered that he made no in
situations, but the fact was notorious
throughout the State that what ne said Of
Demas was true.
The Chairman Of the Board said that as
the Board had very short time to do q
great deal Of work, they would hear Mr..
Delmas, and then Mr.. Raymond could ap
pear before the Board on Thursday, if he
80 desired, and make such argument or re-
ply as he might desire.
Mr.. Delmas then made quite long argu-
nent having Win. J. Davis present to
geographically report it. The speech was
a repetition of well-known statements made
by this attorney during the late extra ses-
sion and in his letter to the State Board of
Equalization one year ago.
Mr.. Gildeainterrupted during the speech,
10 correct inaccuracies of statement, and
also making occasional suggestions, which
exposed the sophistries ofthe speaker.
3fr Dunn, at the conclusion of Del1nas'
remarks, asked several questions Of Del
mas to elicit replies OF further statements
contained n the last years letter Of said
attorney, and which letter IS on file with
the Board Further consideration of the
subject wac postponed.

METROPOLITAN THEATER. - The BijOu
Comic Opera troupe presented the brilliant
spectacle and the rafting burlesque - Or
pheus and Eurydice' more smoothly still
last evening. The quartet of true voices
was warmly cncored. Miss Prince sang
in far better voice and with good effect,

to Bacchus won special credit. The chorus
effects were decidedly better. All in all, it
is the brightest burlesque, most sho%y
company, and the most willing and merry
that has appeared here in many q day.

necessitates heavy expense, which prob
ably accounts for the haste Eastward, toward

with all its music and scenic effects, will be
