The Allen faction are hunting for a
compromise candidate at Olympia.
Senator Frank Richards, of Whatcom,
was asked to come in, but he gave his
answer in such decided terms that moth
ing further in the way OF compromise in
that direction will ever again be thought
of. The next name offered by King
county as bait for Turner votes was that
of the present congressman, John L.
Wilson, but that did not work either.
and so the Allen men have returned to
the first principles and are still cudgel-
ing their brains for suitable man to
compromise on.

reception of the kind that has ever been
given by a member OF the cabinet, and
it is expected to form an interesting
precedent that will be extensively fol-

Although pneumatic tubes for the
rapid transferring of mail from main
offices to sub-stations have been used
by the post Office department for some
years past it has been considered im-
practicable, in New York to lay such
tubes across East river, hence mail has
continued to be transferred by wagon
between New York city and Brooklyn,
as of old. 1t is now proposed, however,
to lay large pipe across the. East river
bridge, within which to operate minia-
ture electric railway. Cylindrical cars
will be built just large enough to ac-
commodate a mail sack, and before
each will be run tiny electric motor,
operated by the trolley system. 1t is
claimed that by this plan mail can be
delivered TO sub-stations in less than a
minute. The ideas seem to open up
immense possibilities in the line of
transportation.

The Value of Some Old Clothes Bit
terly Argued in Court.
Every Saturday afternoon, as regular as
cieckwork, there is a wrangle in Judge
Coffey's court over the estate of the late
Mrs. Louisa Pangburn.
Mrs. Henley, who is described as being
interested in the estate. is very anxious to
know the value of each item of the prop
erty and where it has gone TO. Among the
personal effects OF the deceased were cer-
tain articles which, being deemed OF no
appreciable value. the executors had sen
to the Pesthouse for the use and benefit of
the inmates. These articles consisted of a
cashmere dress. an alpaca dress. piush-
seal cloak, d'alma dress, green plaid
shawl VERY old and a gentleman.s old
fashioned gold watch.
But Mrs. Henley is not satisfied. She
claims that the articles in question were OF
the value Of S42 so. aud therefore too good
to be put to such use, and she demands
an accounting thereof.
Yesterday the case was resumed, and
Mrs. John Benson testified that the arti-
cles ~ ere not worth more than So for the
lot, and Mr.. Coleman. apprais ed them at

Final Report Submitted by Executors
Mackay and Dey.
John W. Mackay aud Richard V. Dey,
executors of the estate of Mrs. Theresa
Fair, deceased. filed their final report yes
terday. together with a petition for per-
mission to distribute the estate.
The report shows that since the execu-
tors took charge of the estate in October.
1892. they have received from various
sources and investments the sum of S411,-
514 Is. On the other hand their disburse-
ments have amounted to SSS,37 90, giving
the balance in hand upon June, 2, 1898, at
1884. 140 90, This balance Of the estate
was then invested in the following man

$500. coo; American Exchange National
Bank of New York, S27. S9S 06; Nevada

Since that time taxes have been paid by
the executors under protest amounting to
S31 CSC 80. and he cash now actually on
hand amounts TO S2453 10. the attorneys
seem to have had good time during the
adjustment of Mrs. Fairs estate matters,
as the disbursement list fairly bris;les with
their fees. Miss Virginia Fairs monthly
allowance is set down at S2500, and Charles

NO GRADING YET.
Sievers' Suit Against the
Supervisors.
Judge Slack Has Denied Defendants S
Motion for Dismissal of
Action.

Judge Slack yesterday made an order
denying motions for nonsuit and dismissal
of the action brought by John II. Sievers
against the old Board of Supervisors and
ex-MayOr Sanderson, now deceased.
The original complaint set forth that
Sievers. who is well-kn0wu florist, owned
a certain lot of land situate on the corner
of Polk and Chestnut streets. He valued
his lot at S12 COO and had erected improve
mcnts on his land In the shape of hot
houses. filled with costly exotics, and a
capacious flower garden. which improve
ments he valued at $4,000 or more.
Some time last year the Board of Super
visors obtained an act of Legislature en-
abling them to do some grading on GER
tain streets with view to extending the
same. Sievers was therefore, among
others. notified that it was the intention
of the hoard to raise the grade of Polk
street some twenty feet at the Chestnut
street crossing, as it was intended to eX-
tend Polk street and that Sievers, together
with the other property-owners in the
district. would have to pay the assess
ments about to be levied.
Severs protested vigorously against this
and petitinned the board TO recon sider the
project. In his petition he stated that he
but as matter of fact his property would
be so much injured by the proposed i'm
provements that $40, 900 would hardly COM
pensate him for the damage done. The
petition was duly acknowledged and evil
dence heard before the board. Sievers had
three expert florists, +. Ludeman, R. d.
Fox ana E. Gill. up to testify that in their
opinion Sievers' garden would be ruined
by such proceeding. and that $40, 900 was
fair estimate OF the damage that would
be done.
But the petition was dismissed and
Sievers once more notified that the pro-
posed work would be executed. Then Sic
vers filed a motion in the Superior Court
Tor an injunction to restrain the Super
visors from carrying out their scheme until
due compensation in the sum of S20, 600
had been paid into court. Answer was
filed, in which the defendants denied all
liability and moved for nonsuit and dis
misSal of action.
Since then it appears that the Legisla-
ture, at the last session. repealed the pre-
vious act and refused to coun tenance the
proposed street extensions, as we'll as max
ing null and void all assessments thereon,
al the urgent petition of prOperty-ho lders
in the various districts.
With these facts in view Judge Slack
has denied both motions of defendants, and
the case will shortly be set for trial.

COILS P.'S PLEA.
He Objects to His Ships
Being Assessed.
Claims That His Steamers Are Elk.
enpt Because They Are Not Reg
iStered in San Francisco.

Coils P. Huntington never wants to pay
taxes. He has never paid them when he
could avoid it. No technically, however
refined. escaped the vigilant eye of the
multi-milliunaire when il comes to paying
the taxes due city or State.
The latest scheme of Coils P. Hunting
ton of the Pacific Mail Steamship Com
pany is 10 refuse to pay taxes on the
steamers belonging to the company.
When Assessor Siebe was making up his
list of assessments he assessed fifteen
steamers belonging to The Pacific Mail as
follows: Acapulco, Sl45 coo; City OF New
York, S176,000; City of Sydney, SIG, 600
City of PrkIng. S26S,O00; City of Rio de
Janeiro, S216, 600; Colima, S175. 900; San
Bias, S13i. 600; san Jose, S137. GOO; City of
Panama, $4,000; Starbuck, Sl01, GOO; Peru,
S254 600.
Yes erday Alexander Center. Pacific
Coast agent of the Pacific Mail, sent a Wig
0rOuS protest 10 The assessment of Mr..
Huntington's steamers. He claimed that
the steamers were not asseSsaOle in San
francisco, as they were registered in New
York aad belonged to a New York corpor-
alton.
The Assessor and his chief deputy, Mr.
HrrZer, take an entirely different view OF
the matter. and claim that the steamers
are asSeSsaple at tnlS port, Wnlch Is their
home port, and because they are assessed
nowhere else according to the sworn state
ment of the officers of the Company. The
fact of the matter is the Assessor claims
that Huntington had all of his steamers
registered at New York, and then eugi-
neered little bill through the New York
Legislature providing for the exemption of
the Pacific Mairs steamers from taxation
on the ground of encouraging and fost ter
ing nayiga ton.
Coils P. fostered navigation by throt-
Ting commerce on the Pacific Coast oy
the payment OF an annual subsidy TO the
steamship company not to increase its
trade.
the Pacific Mail steamers came up and the
matter was referred to City and County
burst for his opinion. He advised that
The company's steamers could not be as
sessed and the matter was dropped.
