A letter from A. Phillips, dated at
Minneapolis, September 2Sth, makes an
announcement which is of great inter
est to this coast. 1t is we'll known that
eastern railroad companies, especially
those of New England, have been urged
for several years to discontinue the use
of second-class sleepers on Pacific
through trains. The power behind
these efforts has of course been the
great Pullman and Wagner sleeping-car
companies, to whose material advantage
it would be to have no sleepers but
their own used on the lines referred to.
In this letter is given the welcome in
formation, that the protest against
taking off the tourist sleepers has been
effective, and that that class of cars will
be run. Most of the California immi-
grafton has used and now uses second
class sleepers, and it would have been
an injury to the development of the
state, had the use of the cars been dis

Case Denied.

Jury's Legality.
Another Test Case Made in the Matter.
Edgar Raymond Fined $500 and

imprisonment.
Associated Press Dispatches.

SAN Francisco, Oct. 6.-Attorney-
General Hart today fled in the supreme
court lengthy petition for a writ of
review to test the validity of the present
grand jury. The petition recited that
the rule adopted in April, 1889, by the
judges of the superior court, to the effect
that in all cases grand jurors shall be
drawn from a list submitted by the
judges of that court, unless the list shall
be exhausted without securing a jury,
was in force at the time Presiding
Judge Wallace appointed an elisor
to select the present grand jury.
The petition also reviewed Judge Muir
phys decision in dismissing Richard
Chute, who refused to appear before the
grand jury, and cited the fact that
Stephen T. Gage is now under attach
ment for contempt for also failing to ap-
pear before that body, and that Creed
Raymond, counsel for Gage, District
Attorney Barnes and the attorney-gen-
eral had stipulated upon an agreed case
to be presented to the supreme court,
involving questions as to whether Judge
Wallace had power to appoint an elisor,
and whether said grand jury was legally
constituted.
After the petition had been read,
Chief Justice Beatty stated the case
agreed upon by counsel presented no
controversy which the supreme court
could be called upon to decide. Reply
ing to Attorney General Harris state
ment that the state would be at ex-
penses for trials arising from indict-
ments that might be found by an illegal
grand jury, Justice Beatty said he under
stood there was series of questions in
volved that the public might be inter-
ested in, but that the province OF the
supreme court was to decide cases, and
not to answer questions, and that per-
son under Indictment, was the
only one to question the legality
of the grand jury. Such person could
apply to the supreme court for writ of
prohibition.
Justice Mcfarland being the only one
absent. the court decided that the case
did not present genuine controversy
that could be decided by the supreme
court, and dismissed the application.
In subsequent interview, Attorney
General Hart expressed the opinion that
in denying the petition, the supreme
court had denied the writ of review,
thus virtually establishing the legality
of the grand jury.

Erie Stock Booming.

New YORK. Oct. 6.-Heavy buying or
ders have been executed in Erie stocks
and bonds, and in bonds of the Chicago
and Erie road yesterday and today. The
buying is accompanied by rumors that
some deal is pending, that the Wander
bilts have obtained control of the stock,
and that pool in which Cammack is a
prominent member has taken up large
amount of stock. The general impress
sion is that the movement is a specu-
lative one, based on continued improve
ment in the condition of the company.
