+. Del Vale, r. Bilderrain, Hon. ]. &.
Estudillo, Judge R. A. Ling and d. Bo-
tiller were declared honorary members

Mr.. R. F. Sepulveda made speech in
which he strongly advocated the candi-
dacy of Mayor E. B. Pond of San Fran
cisco for governor, and Col. ]. j. Ayers,
of Los Angeles for lieutenant governor.
He reviewed the record of Mayor Pond
for the past eight years and in conclu-
sion said that it was Mayor Ponds rec

him in the gubernatorial chair.
Mr.. Sepulveda eulogized Mr.. R. Bill
derrain as public servant, and said that

Of obtaining from the government new
concession under which work on the
canal may be resumed. 1t was he who,
in 1873, secured the original grant from
the Colombian government by which
the canal was begun. What is wanted
is an extension of time, merely on the
same conditions as that granted twelve
years ago. While on the isthmus Mr..
Wyse made careful inspection of the
state of the canal and Of the probability
of carrying forward the great undertake
ing to successful issue. This was the
preliminary step, and as he proceeds at
once to the seat of government in his
mission, it is certain that his observa-
tions led him to believe the project a
feasible one. He was at Panama about
June Goth, and his visit to Bogota was
expected to occupy about two months
1t will therefore be we'll toward the end
of August before any further news is
likely to reach the world outside.
If Lieutenant Wyse succeeds there
are $40,000,000 now ready to put at
once into the canal.

CHARGED WITH EXTORTION.
A Complaint Against ex-Deputy Con-
stable Freeman.


In the township court Yesterday w :.
w. Freeman appeared before Justice
Savage for arraignment upon the charge
of extortion under cover of official right.
He was ordered to appear for examina-
ton on the 21st inst, until which time
he was placed under bonds in the sum
OF $3.50. The complainant, youth
named A. H. Dunn, is the proprietor of
soda water fountain and ice cream par
lor, situated about midway between the
bluff and beach on the inclined walk at
Santa Monica. On Wednesday last it is
alleged that Freeman, who was formerly
deputy under Constable Clement, pro-
cured the papers in an attachment suit
pending against Dunn from the files of
the township court, and went down to
Santa Monica. On arrival there he pro-
ceeded to serve them upon Dunn,
and under threats of closing up his
place OF business, succeeded in inducing
Dunn to pay him the amount of the at
tachment, $3.50, together with $40
costs accrued thereon. Dunn believed
Freeman to be an officer, and was con-
siderably surprised on calling at Justice
Savage's court at being served again
with a duplicate of the writ of attach
ment he had already met and disposed
of. This led to explanations, and the
machinery of the law was at once set in
motion to bring Freeman to justice, with
the above result.
Freeman was at one time patrolman
in the employ of Detective A. B. Law
son, and after the revocation of his COM
mission by Constable Clement, was
sworn in as a deputy constable at Ver-
non, but this commission was also re-
yOked

DE LESSEPS'S DITCH.
The Great Engineers Great Work
Not Dead Yet.

Thomas L. Duque is one of the recent
additions to the citizens of Los Angeles,
and most desirable acquisition he is in
all respects. He has very recently re-
turned from visit to Panama, where
he is interested in the great De Lesseps
canal. The impression here is that that

A SMALL MASS MEETING.
The Nationalists Conduct Meeting on
the Water Question.

the Water Question.
A call was issued yesterday for a mass
meeting on the court house steps to dis
cuss the water question. The attend
ance was very light, less than 100 being
present. The meeting was held under
the management of the Nationalists, and
the speakers were chiefly of their order.
John r. Hunter called the meeting to
order at little after O'Clock. He
spoke of the experience of eastern cities
in the matter of public ownership of
water works. Mr.. j. Judah followed,
presenting the question from the Nation
alist point of view. H. G. Connell, the
next speaker, thought that the people
should control anything that was so en-
tirely for the public use and benefit as
the water system.
Mrs. Annie F. Smith spoke next. She
declared her belief that the water
should be as free as air, and should be
owned and controlled by the public.
She found much fault with the city for
certain franchises which it had granted.
G. P. Dorland then gave review of
the career of the City Water Company
and explained how, if the business could
be so protitably managed by the COM
pany, it could be successfully handled
by the city.
Several others made similar speeches
and the meeting came to an end.
