proves.

The old trouble between France and
Dahomey has again broken out. The
serious fighting which occurred in 1890
was due to the fact that the French
had established protectorate over
Porto Novo, district over which the
King of Dahomey claimed sovereignty.
The campaign ended then with new
treaty, which confirmed the French
protectorate but since that time the
Dahomeans have made several incur
Asions into the territory under French
Influence, pillaging and carrying of
the natives. The real reason for these
incursions is said to lie in the fact that
the Belgium Government has con.
tracted with King Benezin, Of Daho-
mey, for the delivery of native labor
ers to work on the Kcngo Railroad
which simply means tacit approya
of the traffic in slaves. And yet til,

LUCEY'O LUCK.
The Rosebud Dives Proprietor Es-
capes Conviction,
And All Because of an Invalid Ordi-
nance Which is at Variance With
the State Law.

A decision of Judge Cravens in the
Police Court yesterday morning declares
illegal the ordinance under which the city
has recently been operating in the closing
of certain disreputable saloons.
Some time since the notorious deadfal1
known as the Rosebud, on L street, was
closed out by the police, the Trustees
having refused to grant license for run
ming it. Afterward Ed Lucey and Dan
Connors reopened the establishment, al
leging that they were selling only tenn
perance drinks, and as Lucey is cripple,
having lost both legs by a railroad acct
dent, no license was exacted of him. It
was ascertained, however, that the So
| called temperance drinks included those
beverages Which inebriate more than
they cheer, and the proprietors were
arrested and prosecuted under the al
legged ordinance, which forbids the sale of
liquors by retail without license, under a
penalty of fine of not less than 500 nor
more than $500. The trial occurred YES
terday, and Major Anderson appeared
for the defense.
He attacked the complaint by demur-
rer, alleging the invalidity of the ordi-
nance, as being inconsistent with the
charter, Section 80 of which provides that
fine of not less than SO nor more than
500 may be imposed by ordinance for
selling liquor without having first pro-
cured license.
City Attorney Hart did not attempt to
controvert Major Anderson's position,
deeming the point well taken, and the
Judge ordered the complaint dismissed
and the defendants discharged.
This ruling, which seems the only pos
slble one under the charter virtually
throws down the bars to any one who
wishes to run a saloon in Sacramento.
The obvious duty of the Trustees is to
Immediately pass an ordinance which
shall conform to the charter but even
then the penalty viii be scarcely sufficient
to deter many from taking the chances on
prosecution.

He Receivers the Value of the Load i,
However, From the Dolan
Estate.

The case of Charles F. Seebe VS.. the
estate Of the late County License Col
lector P. f. Dolan was heard and dis
posed of by Superior Judge Catlin yester-
day afternoon
Seebe is peddler and attended a picnic
last year near Folsom with wagon-load
OF candy, ice cream and other enticing
sweets. The late License Collector de-
clared that Seebe was violating the law
by peddling without license and di-
rected Constable Burke of Folsom to ar
rest the peddler The officer obeyed and
took Seebe and his outfit to Folsom.
There was trouble in finding Justice,
and Seebe was kept in jail. A second
charge of obstructing a public highway
was placed against him. Seebe was, by
reason of his arrest, unable to dispose of
his wares, and, as he afterward alleged
in his suit, they spoiled and he was con-
siderably out of pocket.
Seebe was fined So in the Justices
Court of this city on the charge of OBJ
| structing public highway, but the other
charge was dismissed
Seebe then commenced suit against
Dolan for the recovery of the value of his
wares, setting the amount at $50. He OBJ
tanned judgment for the amount in the
Justices Court, but the case was appealed
to the Superior Court, ana it was on this
appeal that the case reached Judge Catlen
yesterday.
The Court decided that Seebe was en-
titled to recover. In the first place his
arrest was unlawful. The Constable
should not have arrested Him on the
License Collectors say-so. No officer,
said the Judge, has the right to arrest a
person on misdemeanor charge unless
the otfense took place in his presence.
rest on information in cases of felony,
but not in misdemeanor cases. Then the
Constable, continued the Court, should
not have separated Seebe from his wares
and should have given him an oppor-
tunity TO care for them.

Four Engineering Reports Submitted to
Congress Of San Diego HarbOr.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Four important
engineering reports were submitted to Con-
gress to-day, in accordance with the provis-
ions of the act approved February "a, 1891,
to provide for the selection of site for
military post at or near San Diego, Cal.
The Board of Engineers has made a report
upon the project The tract recommended
by the board for the military post is
known as the Hardacre Tract, containing
$40 acres, and is owned by many
individuals who have agreed to sell to the
United States their several holdings at
prices aggregatng S230,00 for the whole.
Although the Major General commanding
the army remarks, in his Endorsement of the
report of the board, "the tract selected
is the most desirable one in the vicinity of
San Diego as site for large military post,
to be garrisoEed by troops of all arms. this
department is not prepared to express con-
currence in the opinion of the board
as TO the reasOnableness Of the price or the
necessity of the purchase" l.. A. Grant,
acting Secretary of War, in message TO
the Speakerot the House Of Representatives,
says: The board iinds that La Playa is
