that the signatures should have read j. F.
Sill and Mrs. NJ. L. Hatch.
Judge Greene also held the same view
and set the Information aside. but he did
not let CAVITY go. He simply referred his
case to the present Grand Jury and stated
that the bond that he was then under
would answer the purpose.
Now CAVITY is lucky enough to get off
altogether.
Castro street was open all day yesterday
The panels of new fence which the crowd
dragged down the night before and the
big gates, one of which was pretty badly
dllapidated, still lay III heap on the op-
posite side of First street, and the teams
of Kendall the Iumberman and Forth the
DrickmaU, went in and out as on former
occasions. and there was othlng to disturb
or stop them.
If the railroad company took any steps
looking 10 the rebuilding of the fence it did
not show its hands. It is understood,
however, that there was consultation OF
attorneys yesterday, and the question was
asked whether the perpetrators could not
be made TO suffer for contempt OF court In
disobeying the courts order of restitution,

rest the crowd for malicious mischief. The
only drawback was they did not know
whom to arrest. The names of FO1tin and
Kendall were mentioned, but the proof
was insufficient against them.
1t is understood that Mr.. Taylor, whose
name has been used by the waterfront
company as being the real party in inter-
est, called at the Office of the Pacific Coast
Lumber Company yesterday and informed
Mr.. Kendall that he was out Of the affair
altogether aud did not now claim any in

Yesterday afternoon at O'clock there
was meeting of a very private character
in the Office of Mayor Pardee. There were
present several members of the Council,
V. A. Forth and his attorney, Michael
MullaDey. 1t is pretty definitely settled
that something was done at the meeting
looking to the grading of Castro street to
the waters edge and keeping it open.
Mr.. Forth called attention TO the license
he held from the city giving him permits
sion TO do wharf business between Cas-
trO and Brush streets from June 80. 1898.
to September 80, 1898. That costs US S25
per quarter" said Mr.. Forth. "Now. if
we pay this to the city, don't you think
they ought TO keep the street open so we
can get TO our whaTf?"
A CALL reporter was talking to a man in
the crowd yesterday morning, looking at
the demolished fences, and asked that in
dividual il he thought the railroad COM
pany would put up the fence again. He
answered:

again, you can depend on that"
