Chance for an Investigation of the City's
Fire-Alarm Officials.
On the night of July 4th, a fire-alarm
was sounded for box p, at Twelfth and o
streets, and Chief Engineer O'Meara was
not long in reaching that locality, only to
find that there was no fire in the neighbor-
hood. There was q slight one, however,
but it was on X street, between Eighth
and Ninth. Night before last an alarm
was sounded for Front and NJ streets while
the fire was IN progress at Twentieth and
o. These blunders are becoming danger
ously monotouous, and it is about time the
Fire Commissioners carried out their prom
Use made q month or so ago to do a little
reforming in that branch of the Fire De-
partment service. 1t does seem as if il
might be possible to have the fire alarm
system kert in such a state of repair that
alarms could be sent in correctly. 1t is too
serious q matter to be trifed with, and
there should be a thorough investigation,
without further delay, and the blame fixed
wherever j, belongs
The person who is paid to look after the
fre-alarm system has had various excuses
TO offer for past errors of the kind referred
TO, and it is barely possible that he can
show he IS not to biame, but property own
ers require some positive evidence in that di-
rection, or a change IN the service. 1t does
not seem AT all reasonable that such blum
ders cannot be avoided. As it is, the fire.
alarm service Is more than farce-it is u
positive menace 10 the community.

Baker Would Like to Sign With the Sac
ramentos-NeNt Sundays Game.
In order that no one may be disap-
pointed, announcement is again made that
the game scheduled for this city to-day, be-
tween the S;ock:ons and Sacramentos, will
not take place, rs it has already been
played off.
1t is stated by the management that the
Sacramento club will sign Baker, lately of
the Stocktons, if he can get his release from
the Newark club. President None, of the
California League, has telegraphed Mana
ger Lang, of this city, that Baker belongs to
Newark unless be is released, and therefore
he cannot be si2ned as yet by any club in
this League. Though he would much
rather play with the Sacramentos, Baker
says he will so East if obliged to do so, but
not until they forward him some money
and two tickets-one for his wife He is
short of funds, but does not propose TO
leave his wife behind him. The whole
matter has been submitted to the Board of
Arbitration in San Francisco and their &C.
ton in the matter will be the final one.
President None has telegraphed Sylves-
ter, OF this city, that he will give him
chance at umpiring in the California
League.
Next Sundays game here will be between
the Oakland and Sacramento clubs.

THE JURY WAS SELECT.
But 1t Failed to Rid Fifth Street of Nj
Anderson's DeadfalI.

but III talleu TO KID Filth Street of Mrs.
Anderson's DeadfalI.
About the hottest" man in the city last
night was Chief of Police Lee. His wrath
was caused by the disagreement of the Jury
that was selected to try the case of Mrs.
Anderson, who was charged with keeping
disorderly house. 1t was the second time
that twelve good men and true" had been
called in to sit upon the case. and each
time they agreed to disagree.
What's the use" asked the Chief. "of a
person trying to break up that hell-hole,
when twelve citizens, selected with care,
for the purpose of trying the case, fail to
convict? People talk about the police al
lowing this or that disreputable place to
run, when the fact is the police are power
less to accomplish anything, so long as
juries fail to convictr'
What was the matter with some of the
witnesses ~ was asked.
Yes" replied Lee, look at the way
that man Slaughter testified. Why, he and
others have come to my house in the dead
hours of the night and complained that
they could get no sleep, owing to the racket
kept up at that place, where the worst
characters in town gather, and then he
goes on the stand and swears that they
were no annoyance to him, and he had no
complaint to make"
What explanation does he make of his
conduct"
None at all, except that he pretends to
be afraid of the boys, meaning the roughs
that frequent the place. He says they
would thrash him if he testified against
Mrs. Anderson"
But if the place is so VIGOROUSLY disor-
derby, how is it that she is allowed to
maintain it-where does she get her permit
to do so?"
"Oh, she gets a license, of course" re-
marked the Chief, with an air of disgust,
but wait bit there's another ordinance
under which think we can reach her
case and Others of the same kind, and we'll
give them another rattle pretty soon"
