that its precise location had not been set

r. B. Mitchell and Secretary Badlam
accordingly met the Park Commissioner
yesterday. Thoy went over the site to-
gether, and after noting the progress made
in the building operations considered the
suggestion of moving the Administration
building back to the clump Of trees. The
Park Conn issoners, while acquieScing in
the desire for more space, pointed out that
the clump of trees constituted valuable
windbreak. At this the fair representa-
tives withdrew their request and decided
to leave the building in its original loca-
tion. ANY reasonable extension of the
ground site requested will be granted by
the park authorities.
Secretary Badlam positively denies the
statement pu ublished in an evening paper
that lie has resigned his position. he
leaves for Chicago tomorrow, but says
that he has not the faintest intention of
relinquishing his Office. He goes on off,

OF the Midwinter Fair buildings seems al

Appliances Sent to the Stranded
Steamship MiOwera,

The steamer MaripOsa, which sailed yes
terday for Hon oiulu, carried from Captain
Whiteaw's wrecklng establishment an
anchor weighing 10, ,2S0 pounds, the largest
on the Pacific Coast, large steam pump
and eleven purchase blocks, to be used in
attempting to get the stranded steamship
Miowera off the coral reef near the en-
trance TO Honolulu harbor.
The anchor will be carr led out astern OF
the Miowera. Its great weight will crush
through the light coral and take bold of
the solid material beneath the upper crust.
Tackles will be reeved fore and aft the
deck, the steamer using her capstan to pull
her off.
Marine experts here familiar with the
the ground are Of the opinion that the
steamer has. crushed the soft coral be-
meath her, forming sort of an easy
cushion upon the hard strata beneath, and
that she can be made to slide off in the
same direction she went on. Auxiliary
anchors, though none so heavy az the one
taken from here, can be had from the men,
Of war at Honolulu, and if necessary three
anchors will be carried aft, all connected
The Mayors Veto Valid.
Superior Judge CARRIER has decided that
the approval CT the Mayor is necessary in
order to validate an ordinance of the Board
of Supervisors granting railroad fran
chise.
1t was the case of John W. Eismeth,
who brought suit to enjoin Superintendent
of Streets Ackerson from interfering
with the work of constructing q railroad
on Broderick street, between Jefferson and
Beach. The ordinance granting a fran
chise was passed by the Supervisors in
December last, but was vetoed by the
Mayor. Eismeth contended that the fran
chise was good Without tho Mayors ap-
proval.
Judge CARRIER held that the approval of
the Mayor was necessary to make such a
franchise valid and that the recent decision
of the Supreme Court in the case of the
Spring Valley Water Works Company did
not apply in this case. The temporary in
junction sued out by Eismeth was declared
dissolved.

League Championship.

Not since the paimy days ofthe old Cali

terest manifested il the game Of baseball
as at the present.
The new order of things is directly at
tributable to the earnest efforts of j. b.
Gilbert, who has succeeded in revivifying
the baseball corpse by the only method
possible, in the wedding out of the olG dis
tu1 bing elements and putting the game on
the healthy basis that has won for it the
distinction Of being the favorite national
sport. The immediate result is the pros
pect of q season of baseball such as has
not been seen on this coast for years.
The programme for the winter is series
of games between the All-Californiaus,
San Fran ciscos. Oaklands and Bostons. A
majority of these games will be played in
this city. and needless to say, the sport
will be of quality equal to the best. The

E. Daniel Boone desires to make an ex-
hibit Of trained animals during the expo
sition, promising that it will be quite equal
to Hagenc6mp's menagerie now in the
Midway Plaisance. Boone proposes to
erect building 10Ox120 feet. 10 contain all
kinds of trained animals. including lions,
tigers and bears.
A reduction 10 the charge for space has
been made and intending exhibitors can
obtain space of more than fifty square
feet for 81 80 instead of So per square foot
as at first asked. The reason given for the
lower rate is that so many have arranged
TO take space in other buildings to be
erected or will erect separate structures OF
their own that there will be more available
space in the exposition buildings than was
at first supposed.
The people of SIskiyou County are ar
ranging for building of their own. and
they propose to erect log cabin TO con-
tain display OF fruit. vegetables. cereals
and hops, besides gold. iron. copper. quick
silver, marble. onyx and coal. with various
kinds of stone for building purposes. A
collection OF animals. both stuffed and
alive, will form feature OF the Siskiyou
exhibit. There will be deer, mountain
sheep, elk, antelope, grizzly bears. Call

and beavers.
