DISTRICT ATTORNEY BARNES, of San
Francisco, has made application to Gov
ernor Markham for the extradition Of
Chris Buckley and Sam Rainey. 1t
might prove very embarrassing to dis
tinguished Republicans as well as Dem
ocrats to have these non-partisan bosses
brought back. They undoubtedly are
as full of delicate secrets about the de-
vious ways OF politics in this state as an
egg is of meat, and if they should be
brought to book and make clean breast
of what they know, it is believed that
many officials who now hold their heads
high, may feel it the proper thing to
take foreign trip. The HERALD hopes,
however, that the boss boodlers may be
brought back, and made to take their
place with the other boss boodlers, Dan
Burns, Crimmins, Kelley and Chute, to
atone for their crimes and divulge their
unsavory secrets. In the words OF the
court house furniture "fat justicia."

trial today before Judge Barnes. Phe-
Ian used to grace the Los Angeles police
force in the latter days of the boom, but

month sufficient remuneration for the
'fnest," he quit in disgust. Since
then the enthusiastic ex-policemen has

enterprises, and now has on hand big
contract for the San Antonio Light and
Power company, consisting of the con-
struction of big tunnel under the

of the most enterprising, as well as
most popular men OF this section. On
the oath of last month Len Claiborne,

that he was not authorized to do so. In

HOT WATER.
Rumors About the City Hall Heating
Proposition.

Rumors About the City Hall Heating
Proposition.
A. to say the least very peculiar, tran
saction by the council is gradually COM
ing to the surface.
1t will be remembered that some time
ago the council advertised for bids for
heating the city hall by steam-accord-
ing to specifications on file with the
superintendent of buildings. The bids
came in, were opened, and one was ac-
cepted, and here is where the apparent
funny work comes in.
1t is said that the specifications called
for steam heating works. The &C.
cepted bid, which was that of George HI.
Fay. was for hot water heating apparat-
us, which will cost $500 more than the
lowest bidder for steam. How the coun-
Gil could advertise for one system and
accept another, puzzled Mr.. Morton,
one of the bidders, and he yesterday
filed protest with the mayor, who, it
seems, did not know about any such
deviation by the council from the adver-
tized proposition, and accordingly the
contract was awarded to Fay.
1t is doubtful if anything can be done
about the matter now by Mr.. Morton,
except to have the affair investigated.
The bid of Mr.. Fay. it is said, will
necessitate the putting in the city hall
of new boiler and heating plant, while
that the other bidders contemplated
the use of the steam plant now in the
basement of the building.

MANY an eye has danced to see
That banner in the skyw

ABOUT the boldest thing in train rob-
berry was the holding up of the night
train from Chicago to St. Paul, at sta.
ton just north of Milwaukee, about
o'clock yesterday morning. 1t appears
that the robbers got away with a con-
siderable amount of money from the ex-
press car. There will have to be a rad
ical change in the methods OF transport
ing treasure by rail, if these robberies
become more frequent. 1t will be nee
essary to build car expressly for the
purpose, bomb-proof. and provided with
burglar-proof vault, that could only
be opened at the principal stations. No
messenger should be sent in these cars
but he might have place in another
car, where he could do the way bust
ness, placing the treasure as it came in
on the road in the vault-car whenever it
reached an important station. The
messenger would thus have but very
little treasure with him at any one time,
and the treasure car with its vault
would be strong enough to resist the
efforts of the robbers to open it until
armed help could reach the train. The
fact is that to place messenger in the
treasure car, with keys to open the
safes, makes it easy for the robbers to
get at the booty.
