Without Any Foundation
In Fact.

Thought He Must, Having Lost the
Confidence of the Reichstar.

BERLIN, March 21.--In consequence OF the
ministerial crisis the most exaggerated re-
ports are in circulation as to the course the
emperor will follow, but when traced to
their source they are found to be utterly
without foundation. Reports have been
| circulated as to what the emperor said and
did at the meeting of ministers Thursday
and scattered broadcast by sensational
| writer's. As a matter Of fact the only
sources from which any information could
nave been derived as to what transpired
were the emperor and the ministers. The
latter refused absolutely to dlvulge any
thlnR. and no one thinks the emperor
msce IT his business to inform newspaper
correspondents on the subject The report
started to-day that the chancellor had re-
signed the presidency OF the Prussian ooun-
Gil OF ministers, but would retain the chan
cellorHh1p. It can be snid with no foar Of
denial that the statement ia based purely
on conjecture. The chancellor was sum
noned to Hubertustock by the emperor to
discuss what action the government should
take on the primary education bill, and
other matters connected with the present
Crisis, bat there was no question az to the
chanoellor's resignation Of. either office for
the simple reason that he has never ten
dered his resignation. Caprivi has always
held with Bismarck that the chancellor.

can DO further stated that the action Of the
emperor on the resignation of Count Won

to the ministry. His majesty's decislon on
tho reformation of his cabinet is still
known only to himself.

of the cabinet. He will endeavor to effect
a compromise by disposing Of the education

TAXPAYERS AROUSED.
Strong Opposition to Scheme of thu
Southern Pacific.

strong Opposition to n scheme OF the
Southern Pacific.
Three hundred taxpayers. members Of
the Church-street improvement Club, met
last night at the corner Of Church and
Twenty-fourth streets TO oppose the grant
ing OF franchise TO the Market-street Rail-
way Company, q branch OF the Southern
Pacific. to lay tracks along Church street
and run cars to be moved by electricity,
cables, "horses or mules"
The Southern Pacific, so the members of
the club say. did not want to run ears upon
Church street until they found that the
Omnibus Cable Company wanted fran
chse. Then they appeared before the Su-
pervisors with request for the privilege
asked by the Omnibus.
The Markpt-s.reet company now has lines
that parallel Church street.-The Valencia
and the Castro-street lines, each three
squares distant-and the people believe that
II il 10 given a franchise on Church street il
will run cars as they are now run on Bush
street, one a day. In other words, they
think that the only reason why the Market
street company waits the franchise Is to
shut off any other company that might In
lure its business.
Charles Meyers presided at the meeting
of the club lastnight, and strong resolutions
proposed by the executive committee were
unanimously adopted
Colonel j. j. OByrne spoke TO the resolu-
tiOns. and his remarks were enthusiastically
applauded.
One hundred and twenty names were
added to the clubs rcll OF members.

Two representatives of the firm of Fon-

phatiealiy denied that they were treating

to collect his fares. one of the quartet passed
up some money, the knight of tile bell punch
rang up two fares. and then turning to the

This was the signal for trouble. The men
claimed to have paid their full fare. The
conductor was equally positive that he had
received but 10 cents, and failing to con-
vince them that such was the fact, deter
mined to put two of the party off. Instead
OF two the whole party went, and then as
the car started up all four jumped on again.

The. question Of fruit-dealers' trust is
again being discussed, and efforts have been
made by local dealers and cannes during

ton.
A. T. Hatch, the well-known fruit-grower,
said last night that If the trust had been re-
yived again it would only be for the pur-
pose of clearing off last years crop, the
probable yield this season being so variable
In different localities that inform price

light.this summer" said Mr.. Hatch, 'but In
California the general outlook is good.
Pears In the Sacramento Valley will be be-
low the average, but they are good in other
sections. Peaches will be q good crop. and
cherries will be poor as regards quantity.
Arricots will be fair. and prunes will be
prolific. In some districts almonds have
been frost-bitten, causing the kernel to turn
black, although there is nothing in the ex-
ternal appearance Of the nut to indicate
damage. Prices are likely to be good, and
the season should be prosperous for the
growers. the light Eastern yield increasing
the demand and raising the price for Cali
