Many Men Discharged.

representative OF the Electric Storage Bat
terry Company Of Philadelphia held an inter-
view with Vice-PTeSident Huntington of the
Market-street Railroad Company yesterday,
and presented the merits claimed for his sys-
tenn before that gentleman. During the course
OF his remarks the representative stated that
his company would guarantee its system to do
the work at the expense Of 31s cents mile.
MIR. Huntington asked the gentleman II he
would enter into contract to supply the Met
IOpOlitan line with power. but the storage bat
terry man was compelled to ADMIT that his
proposition only applied to roads on a dead
level.
In discussing the storage battery question
Mr.. huntingdon said that he believed the sys-
tem would be perfected at some time In the
future so that II would be available for roads
with at least moderately heavy grades.

tive for developing this method OF motive

Mr.. Huntington added that If system Of
this Kind should be perfected, 1t would GER
tainly be used on Market street ana other cable
lines operated Sy the company.
A high official OF The Southern Pacific road
said yesterday that fully 100 train crews had
been laid of on that road during the past
month.
On the Visalia division Of the Southern
Pacific yesterday gang OF tramps boarded a
passenger train. some OF them mounting 10 the
tops of the cars while others contented them
selves with the brakebeams underneath. The
train crew put them all off al Traveller station,
whereupon the fellows stoned the cars, but
fortunately did no injury to any OF the pas
seng rs. only succeeding in breaking a few
windows.
Mr.. Leeds OF the Traffic Association said
yesterday afternoon that there was no longer
any question that Inc North American Naviga-
tiOn Company would be maintained Sufficient
funds had been subscribed to make that a GER
tainfy.
There is wide diversity Of opinion among
Southern Pacific officials as TO the advisabilty
of employing finkerton detectives to guard the
trains of the company. One of the officials said
yesterday that such course would arouse a
vindictire feeling against the company which
would certainly thwart the purposes for which
the men were placed on the cars. The same
gentleman thought that relief from the burden
OF carrying these men would only come after
the public had taken sufficient interest in the
matter TO demand remedial legislation. The

BERKELEY.

A ridiculous illustration OF unrefiectipg rush
TO court occurred yesterday before Justice
PeDwell. Some days ago two young gentlemen
of Lorin, Messrs. Shaw and Mcclellan, both
residents since boyhood OF the place, by mis-
lake took out of the stable team belonging to
Mr. Wilman OF Lorin, supposing they had Mr..
Moran's team, whose permission they had OBJ
tanned. They drove out OF town on some busi-
ness. and while they were gone Mr.. Wilman,
discovering that his team was gone, refused to
listen to the explanations of the stableman,
but, whefting his ire on his imagination, was
soon in fever heat OF anger, and proceeded
to West Berkeley. where he swore out a war
rant of arrest for the Two young men. The
case came up yesterday, the young men being
represented by K. Guy Mcclellan, father OF
Young Mcclellan, and &. w. Fox. When the
testimony OF the stableman was given the at.
torneys In disgust moved that the charge be
dismissed.

ming, at one time the champion swimmer of the
coast. Is locked up at the old City Hail. waiting
to learn the effect Of Reilly's injuries, when a
charge Will be made against him.
The stabbing was the result Of drunken
brawl. which terminated thus early yesterday
MOI ming, but the participants seem TO have
been so much under the influence of intoxicants
that they have no very distinct idea OF how The
trouble happened.
According TO Reilly's story he went to the
Plaza Exchange about 3 o'clock yesterday
morning. and. summoning gang OF hangers on
present, treated them at the bar. and then
stepped to the door few minutes later, where
he was attacked by Flemming, whom Reilly
says he had not seen before and did not know.
When Officers ORourke aud Mclaughlin
arrived on the scene they found Reilly badly
wounded. and he at once pointed Flemming out
As the man who did the stabbing, and Flem-
ming was taken to the prison along with a car
driver named A. j. Grant and TWO other men,
giving the names OF Thomas Jones and John
Smith. The three last named are hold as wit

According to the bartender's account Of the

night, and finally got into drunken quarrel.
They started to leave the saloon together, but
when just outside the door Reilly struck Flem-
ming In the face. They then passed out on The
street, but Reilly returned moment later, say
ing that Flemming had cut him. AS soon as
the officers arrived, Reilly was hurried away to
the hospital, where 1t was found that he had
been wounded twice In the abdomen, and one
of the wounds may prove 10 be serious one,
though the surgeons at the hospital say 1t Is not
necessarily fatal.
Joseph B. Flemming is man with gray hair
and mustache. He Is very proud OF his record
that he has been teacher OF swimming for
sixteen years. he emphatically denies that
he stabbed Reilly and declares that he had

Mrs. Carpenter, the superintendent, to recover
possession of the building In which the ex-

music when men play with the idea 1t is

is no soul, no feeling. no fire in it. The
players should feel. should have thoughts
above dollars only. and should be led by a
man competent TO lead. Our band has
men from Sousa's. Gilmore's and the
Washington Marine bands-all excellent
players. and there are no amateurs. What
ails musicians anyhow? Why, our band

Under no other condition can a tax on
