Case.
PASADENA, Nov. 15.-Tomorrow after
noon general meeting of the board of
trade will be held, and there shoald be
large attendance of citizens generally.
A number OF important matters will
come up for consideration, the most i'm
rortant being the proposed extension OF
the Nevada Southern railroad to South
ern California. Mr.. Blake, president OF
this company, will be present and ad-
dress the meeting, explaining what the
extension means to Southern California,
what the company proposes to do and
what it asks OF the people OF this. Sec
tion. 1t ia the general understanding
that the route for the extension has not
yet been decided upon, and that If an
effort is put forth at the present time
the line will be run through this place.
The advantages of such a move are
evident and the project should be given
full hearing at the meeting tomorrow.
Another matter which will comelup
is the midwinter fair ct San Francisco

TEST CASE.
Peter Steil, proprietor of the Tivoli
restaurant on North Fair Oaks avenue.
was arrested this afternoon for selling
liquor without county license. He
promptly gave bail and will engage
counsel to fight the case.
1t will be remembered that some time
ago the council passed an ordinances
putting license upon all liquor dealers
in the county, and imposing severe PEN
alties for it's violation. This the officials
held included cities and towns in the
country as we'll as country districts, but
it has always been disputed question
whether the license could be legally
collected in this city.
For short time restaurant keepers
and Others selling beer and wine in this
place paid the license to avoid trouble.
but finally became tired of it, and none
has been collected in this place for sew
efal months.
A few days ago it was decided to make
a test case and have the matter settled
in the courts with the result that Mr..
Steil was arrested this afternoon as be-
fore stated.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND's
MESSAGE.

10 Inc congress OF the Unlted
States: The existence of an
alarming and extraordinary bust
aess situation, involving the
welfare and prosperity of all our
people, has constrained me to
call together in extra session the
peoples representatives in con-
gress to the end that through the
wise and patriotic exercise OF
legislative -d,ftyy with which they.
are solely charged, the present
evils may be mitigated and dan
gers threatening the future may
be avoided, Our unfortunate
financial plight is not the result
pi untoward circumstances nor
OF conditions related to our ma
tural resources, nor is it trace
able to any of the Affections
which frequently check national
growth and prosperity. With
plenteoas crops, with abundant
promise of remunerative pro-
'duction and manufacture, with
unusual invitation to safe invest
ment and satisfactory assurance
TO business enterprise, suddenly
q financial distrust and fear has
sprung up ON every side. Mum
'stohs money institutions have
suspended, because abundant
assets were not Immediately
available to meet the demands
of frightened depositors. Sur
%feing corporations and individ-
aials are content to keep in hand
their money. They are usually
anxious TO loan, and those en-
gagged IN legitimate business. are
surprised to find that the secur-
tiles they offer FOR loans, though
heretofore satisfactory, are no
longer accepted, Values sup
posed to be fixed are fast becom-
ing conjecture, and loss and
failure haveinvaded every branch

Legislation touching the purchase

was Tie elimination of much

& This law provides that in pay
ment for 4 800, 600 ounces OF sill
yer bullion, which the secretary
Of the treasury is commanded to
purchase monthly, there shall lse
issued treasury notes redestnable
on demand, in gold or silver
coin as desired, on the secretary
OF the treasury, and that said
notes may he reissued. 1t is,
however declared in the act to be
1.-THE established policy of the
United States to maintain the
two metals upon a parity with
each other upon the present legal
ratio, or such ratio as may be
provided by law" This declar-
alton SO controls the action of
the secretary of the treasury as
to prevent him exercising the
discretion nominally vested in
him. If by such action the par
ity between gold and silver may
be disturbed, manifestly the re-
fusal by the secretary to pay
these treasury notes in gold
would necessarily result in their
discredit, as the obligations are
payableonly in silver, and would
destroy the parity between the
two metals by establishing dis
elimination in favor of gold.
Up to the 10Th day of July,
1898, these notes had been issued
in payment of silver bullion pur-
chased to the amount of more
than $147, 100000. While all
but very small quantity of this
bullion remains unooined and
without usefulness in the treas
ury many of the notes given in
| its purchases have been paid in
gold. This is illustrated by the
statement that between the LIST
day of May, 1892, and the 18th
day of July, 1893, notes of this
kind issued in payment of silver
bullion amounted to a little
more than $54, 600, 600, and that
during the same period about
$49,000,000 were paid by the
treasury in gold for the redemp-
4
ton of such notes.
The policy necessarily adopted
of paying in gold has not spared
the gold reserve of $100,000,000
long ago set aside by the gov
eminent for the redemption of
other notes, for this fund has
already been subjected to the
payment Of new obligations
amounting to about $780, 100000
on account, of silver purchases
and has, as a consequence for
the first time since it's creation
been encroached upon, We
have thus made the depletion of
our gold easy and have asked
other and more appfeciative ma
tions to add it to their stock.
That the opportunity we have
offered HAS not been neglected is
shown by the large amounts of
gold which have been recently
drawn from our treasury and ex-
ported TO increase the financial
strength of foreign nations. The
excess Of exports of gold over it's
imports for the year ending June
80, 1893, amounts to more. than
$S7 100000. Between the list
day Of July, 1893, the gold coin
and bullion in our treasury in
creased more than SAT- ,O0O,O 900.
Unless government bonds are to
be constantly issued and sold to
replenish our exhausted gold on
ly to be again exhausted, it is
apparent that the operation of
the silver purchase law now in
force leads in the direction of the
entire substitution of silver for
gold in the government treasury,
and that this must be followed
by the payment of all govern
-'ment obligation in idepreciating

GEMS IN VERSE.



Great God, when look round me AMI survey
The shoeess shivering mics that crouch and
cover
In open doorways, suffering by the hour
The bitterest terrors of thi, wntry day,
My heart swels full of anger, and pray
With ceaseless, longing yearning for the power
To raise the standard of revolt and slay
The sins that work such i'll. The lowlest flower
That nestles in the lap Of Mother Earth
Is tended with a kindlier, genter care
Than these rank offshoots of a luckless birth
Dread victims, from their cradle of despair
Nurslings of crime whom rigorous laws con-
denim.
But leave untouched the ills that bear on them.
But turn ye from such sights to that blest place
Where nestles all that's holiest; turn to where
Thy young eyed cherubs wait thee on the stair,
Counting each flying moment till thy face
Burst in upon them and thy fond embrace
Rewards their loving vigils. Gaunt despair
Finds here no habtation; love keeps pace
With jocund mirth and gladness, making fair
The little world around thee. And when sleep
Enfolds thy darlings in his shcltering arms,
HAPPY thy grateful heart asks him to keep
Their pure young souls from sins aluring
charms,
And whilst thy dear ones press their warm,
snug couches
Some homeless waif upon thy doorstep

The reason why women have done SO
little good work in the field of musical
composition is found in their lack of
mental discipline.
Such work requires thinking powers
of no ordinary degree. 1t presumes an
amount of intellectual discipline which
men in general have always had, but
which women were deprived of until
lately,
Yet in spite of hereditary impediments
and social prejudices the amount of work
done by women in the field of musical
composition has been considerable. What
it will be when a sound Intellectual
training and other indispensable condi-
tions will enable her to compete with
