The fire burned so long that the engines
from the city got water on before it was
put out. The car was nearly destroyed.
The fire was probably lighted by tramps
getting in and smoking in the car.

San Francisco, January 30.-The Er-

silver men are not at all satisfied with
Senator Sberman's bill. Culbertson, Of
Texas, says the South will not accept
anything that debasss silver. McCresry,
OF Kentucky, a member Of the Coinage
Committee. says he will oppose any bill
that savors Of suspension in any shape.
He says the majority Of the COMMITTEES is
with him. Senator Teller says the pas

more like giving up their rights than q
compromise. He says the silver men
can and will prevent suspension, and
there is no reason for weakening in any

SAN FnAscrsco, January 30.-rhe su-
preme Court has affirmed the Judgment
rendered. by the Superior Court Of San
Bernardino county in the case Of the
the People ex. rel. James Bsttner and
=. J. Hall vs. the City Of Riverside.
The action was brought to restrain de-
fsndant from usurping the functions Of
the municipalisy--that is, to prevent it
from including within it's limits por-
tion Of the uniuhabited territory that
was not part Of the village Of Riverside.
The Superior Court Of the county in
which the town is located decided that
the city was legally incorporated as a
municipality Of the sixth class, having a
populs ion exceeding 500 and not above
1000. In affirming this judgment the
Supreme Court says that the facts neces-
sary to give the Board Of Supervisors of
that city jurisdiction over the territory
were formed by the Superior Court, and
as the propriety Of establishing a munich
pality and Of including within its bounds
particular territory is In general a
political question, to be determined by
the legislative department Of the gov
ernment, the Superior Court decided
rightly and the Supreme Court must not
interfere.

DEAR SIR-Inclosed herewith find
the act OF the last Congress enabling a
corporation to build bridge over the
Mississippi at Memphis; ASP q copy
OF two bills 10 authorize two different
corporations to build bridges over the
river at the same place. There are
Senate bills. / introduCeda duplicate
OF the bill Introduced in the Senate
by Mr.. Plumb in the House last Mon
day. 1t is my opinion that there is
some purely speculative patti tism on
the part Of some of the gentlemen in
terested. The Kansas City people do
not care how many oher bills are
passed so they are accorded the right
TO build bridge. Some OF the others
do care, aud only want their bill
passed. What We need for our great
and grDwing inteTes' is br dye over
the river, and we ought not to dis
coursgetho who Jealy desire to build
one, merely to Rla ify few spectators.
/ for one will not con sett to be made
party 10 any such scheme by my
action here or elsewhere. Your friends
and mine of the Exchanges OF Mem
phis ale on the ground aud can deter
mine better than 1 can what is best to
be done. think you had better lay
these matters before the Exchange, to
with you belong, and request Mr..
