strength. played bucking game, and when the
team had the ball would gradually work their
way through stanford's ranks without attempt
ing any fancy plays Stanford played q moro
scientific game and made some brilliant runs.
Clemens, Stanford's captain, was the star
player and IL was mainly through his work and
kennedy's that the team made such . good
showing. Stanford's team work was also strong
aud their interference was particularly good.
For Berkeley. Capt Hunt, Burr, Henry. Taylor
and Foulkes did good work. The excitement
when good play was made or one side scored
was tremendous. The students from the two
colleges occupied the adjoining sections in the
grand stand, which was . mass of color, and
used every means known to make noise when
their men had the advantage.

Profits OF California rooIroom..

BAN Francisco. Dec. 1.-THE Exdniaer devetes
page this morning to the business OF pool
rooms in this city and Oakland. In the spring
OF 1891 prohibitive legislation led TO the Closing
of the poolrooms in San Francisco, when they
were removed to Oakland, where, on September
30 last, they were also closed by the authorities,
aud the bookmakers are preparing to establish
themselves at stockton. When the latter dis
continued operations ct Oakland they made
pile of their books and private accounts. TO
which they set fire. Some of the books were
saved. however, and some daily blotters are in
possession of the Eramiaer, from which that
paper estimates that for twenty-five months,
from June, 1859, to March, 1891. inclusive, Kingsley
Il Co. alone cleared up in San Francisco $4,000
on combination bets only, their record for that
period showing clear list of winnings OF from
$1,000 to 5000 per month. On going to Oak
land a consolidation of all the bookHiakers into
two firms took place, aud the Examiner figures
that for those two firms the minimum profit
during the sixteen months that they continued
business in that city aggregated $4,000 The to-
tai expenses were $4,000, so that the poolrooms
drained at least s246.oo0 from the reonie OF Oak
land and vicinity. The pooirooms in question
are those in which books have been made al
most exclusively on horse racing, the municipal
ordinances prohibiting bookmaking except at
places where the races actually take place.

Defining Perpetultles.

Special to the Gazette
AUSTIN, TEX, March est will be re-
membered that some days ago Senator
Kearby introduced bill to define
perpetuities and to regulate the
ownership of land by corporations. It was
referred to a committee and raised quite a
stir A subcommittee was appointed to
draft a substitute ana 1t will come up for
consideration tomorrow. 1t provides that
wherever a corporation owns real estate
not directly in use in its business, it shall
make a bona fde sale of it to some
person citizen of the United States within
ten years. 1t allows a corporation to ac-
quire real estate by lien or foreclosure,
provided it dlsposes of the property within
ten years. 1t is the duty of the attorney
general and district attorneys to institute
suit against corporations found holding
lands contrary to the provisions. of this
law, and the court, when sufficient evidence
is introduced, shall condemn such property
for sale. The proceeds, after all costs are
paid, lshali be deposited with the state treas
urer subject to the demand of the corpora
ton for two years, at the end of which time
it shall revert to the state and shall be
credited to the available school fund.

Col. Browns Railway Bond Bill.


AUSTIN, TEX, March 2S.-The action of
the house to-day in setting aside the text
book bill in order to take up Col. Browns
railway bond bill did not indicate so much
desire to adopt the latter as to hear what
arguments might be produced for and
against 1t. Col. Brown spoke very earn
estly in favor of it, the burden of his argu-
ment being the need for some limitation by
the state on the authority of the railway
companies to issue bonds, the interest on
which, and the principal, ultimately would
have TO be paid by the people. The bill
provides that no railroad company shall
hereafter make or issue any stock or bonds
for sum greater than $40, COO mile unless
when a greater sum shall be paid for a
road at judicial sale.
The new company may organize and issue
bonds on such road for the amount of the
money paid in good faith on such purchase.
The bonds so issued shall be ratified BY the
commission and registered IN the comp
troller's Office, as shall all their bonds here
after issued. Any bonds issued in viola
ton OF the law shall be void
Mr. Gresham's arguments against the
bill were pointed and telling, and made a
strong impression in the house
) Very few members had much acquaint-
ance with the provisions OF the bill, and
gave eaose attention to the discussion Jndg-.

ing from the comments of members after
the debate ended it appears that the bill
cannot pass the house in its present shape,
if it can at all.
One member inclined to favor it said that
he was opposed to fixing any limit on the
amount OF Indebtedness any road may IN
cur. 1t was enough to require the roads to
register their bUnds and stocks and leave
the amount of each to their own discretion.
Another member said the bill was too
weighty matter to be considered at a
special session, and thought it should be
laid aside. He thought something should
be done in that line, but had not the
time to study this bill.
The temper of the house is not favorable
to hasty or i'll advised measures, and can
safely be relied on to ignore what it can
not clearly understand. 1t does not under
stand the full import and significance of
this bill and for that reason will hardly
agree to it unless made less rigid. There
is no desire among members to hamper
roads. Anything smoking of that quality
will meet opposition.

The Three Districts.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
AUSTIN, TEX, March 2S--The sub-com-
mite of five appointed to-day by the house
committee to apportion the state into three
appellate districts, completed its work to-
night. The plan adopted divides the state
into an East, Southwest and Northwest
district. A line was run from 4 point on
Red river between Lamar and Red river
counties to Matagorda bay, leaving Tyler,
Houston and Galvestoncin the east of it.
The counties lying along the east border of
the line are Red River, Delta, Hopkins,
Rains Van Zandt, Henderson, Navarro,
Limestone, Robertson, Brazos, Grimes,
Waller, Austin, Colorado, Wharton, Mata-
gorda.
Beginning at the junction of Hill, Nc
Lehman and Limestone, . dividing line
runs westward to FL Paso county, thence
north to the New Mexican border The
counties on the south border of this line
are McLennan, Coryell, Lampasas, Mills,
Brown, Coleman, Runnels, Coke, Tom
Green, Glasscock, Upton, Crane, Pecos and
JeT Davis. In the southwest district
Austin, San Marcos and San Antonio are
left to struggle for the court and Dallas and
Fort Worth in the northwest district 1t is
too late to get any expression from any
members on the feasibility of this plan or
its wisdom

CrltlclsIng the Governor.

SpeCldl 10 Ino GdZ6blo-
AUSTIN, TEX, March 2S.-Among his ap-
pointments sent by the governor to the SEN
ate Saturday the railroad commissioners
were not included for the reason that the
commission act provides that the COM
missioners appointed by the governor. the
legislature not being in session, shall
serve until the inauguration of the
next governor. There was some
talk to-day among few senators not over
friendly TO the administration that this
clause of the act contrayeneS that provision
of the constitution requiring the gov
ernor to send to the senate for confirma-
ton during the first ten days of the session
all appointments made By him in vacation. 1t
was rumored also that certain senators
were trife disgruntled because the gov
ernor failed 10 include commissioners
among the names sent IN and would so ex-
press themselves in executive session. 1t
remains to be seen whether there is any
thing in these floating rumors.

present benefit resulting from his bill The
earnings of the Texas and Pacific are suffi-
cient to mike return Of from Is to 20 per
cent on the actual money invested. 1t is
stocked and bonded at nearly $50, 600 a mile,
and pays taxes on something like 5000 a
mile
Mr. Gresham argued that the bill would
not only stop railroad building, but would
destroy the roads now in existence. There
is not a road in the state that has not been
reconstructed before it earned its operating
expenses. The Texas and Pacific referred
to by Mr. Brown would serve as an ex-
ample. Its ties lasted only four years and
the rails eight years. 1t ran hundreds of
miles through wild waste. Wooden
bridges had to be replaced by iron ones. the
road ballasted, depots and other facilities
supplied. Enact this bill into law and
what company would build a road under its
cast-iron provisions, There has never been
a dollar of dividend issued upon railway
stocks in this state.
The house adjourned until tomorrow.
