THE LEAGUE OF PROGRESS.
The FiVe.Cent Toll Evil Must
BE Remedied.
We Want an American Canal Under Ameri-
can Control" the Young Merchants
Say to the Government.

The Board of Control Of the League of
Progress met on Thursday afternoon to
again disclss the question Of tolls as
charged by the HarbOr Commission to
transportation lines and by the latter in ex-
cessiye amounts to the merchants.
I've desire TO carry this question to an
ISSUE" said a prominent member of the
league yesterday, "and we will make it a
point to concentrate our efforts exclusively
on this one point until it is disposed Of"
The league will make it its business to
take up one grievance at the time only.
The Board OF Control hopes to be able TO
accomplish more in that manner than by
dividing Its energies.
The toll question is very important one,
and since several ways have been pointed
out by which the Harbor Commissioners
can remedy the present state of affairs the
league justly thinks action should at once
be taken.
There Is absolutely no reason why the
Southern Pacific Company should be al
lowed to pay cents toll on ton of freight
and then collect cents from every mer-
chant who receives a fraction of that ton,
be 1t ever so small.
The transportation companies of this
city, OF which the Fourth and Townsend
nuisance is the largest, have robbed the
business men for years in this manner, and
what WAS intended TO be tax has by them
been turned into 4 revenue.
The Harbor Commissioners will meet on
Tuesday next. and the league expects to re-
ceive at that time reply as to what plan
II any, has been decided On TO remedy the
toll evil.
Behind the Harbor Commissioners is the
southern Pacihc's influence, and therefore
the members of the leagues board of con-
troll fear inactivity or pTocrastination on the
part of the Commissioners.
But they are very serious about this toll
business ana continue 10 struggle against il,
no matter II they find their battle to be
hard one.
The league has also written a letter to W.
l.. Merry, the agent OF the Nicaragua Canal
Construction Company. in which they eom-
plmented him on the zeal he displays in the
carrying out of his pet project.
Soon after the League of Progress was
started IL Endorsed the Nicaragua Canal,
and in the letter sent 10 Captain Merry the
organization repeats that sentiment.
The following resolutions adopted on
Thursday by the Board of Control were at
tached 10 the communication.
They have bearing on the question and
express the feeling OF the Board of Control
on the canal question.
ReSolred, That having I'm view the political as
wei as commercial Importance of this highway
between The oceans, we respectfully urge upOn
our government an dWericGR Canal under
daeTlcda Control" as recommended by the TT at
esi statesman OF the republic, and we ask OF Con
gTeSs snch wise and conservative legislation as
will secure tnls beDeiieeni work for the benef,
OF our people.
ResoiUed That attested copIes OF these resoIu-
tions be forwarded to the President OF the United
States aud 10 The honorable Committee OF For
eign relations or the United States Senate.

waitress, which she valued at S35 and thss
took all the wearing apparel Of Mrs. nv

adjoining the premises.
When the family returned home they dis

Instead Of going to her destination. how

shipped her baggage under an assumed

She then remained in the neigbbOrhood of

DEL MONTE, Aug. 26.-The third annual
pigeon shoot and outing OF the Country
Club has transformed this quiet old town
into vast caravansary Of fashionable
people.
When the club special and the regular
afternoon trains came in at and o'clock
they simply exhausted the resources Of the
hotel-keepers' ingenuity in the way of find
ing room in out of the way places for cots.
The Pullman ears were early bespoken and
next the anterOoms and corridors of the
hotels and boarding-houses were pressed
into service. The late arrival who could
find lounge to sleep on was considered
fortunate.
There are fully 700 people in ths Del
Monte alone and quite a number have taken
quarters at Pacific Grove, the streetcars
running late to suit the emergency.
Imagine such an excessively siaid old
town as Monterey, where the streetcars run
at half hourly intervals. suddenly con-
fronted with a problem in transportation
that would tax a well-equipped cable or
electric road with cars every few minutes.
Well, that is how Monterey is tonight.
The park band Of 40 pieces came down on
the afternoon train, and at the time OF this
writing is rendering a choice programme OF

rockers are drawn around the fire, for the
evening is quite cold, and the hundreds Of

dresses and gosSamer garb Of white The
contrast OF summer raiment and blazing
fire is striking.
Some of the gentlemen sport the white
flannel suit and dark blue peaked cap,
which will be the only orthodox attire to-
morrow morning. Others have come out in
full evening dress and the spirit of mirth
and good fellowship is universal.
The grounds are lighted by 200 Incandes-
