AN AIR OF MYSTERY.
A Committee of University Trustee:
Hold a Secret Session.


The trustees of the University Of California,
composing the committee on internal admins
tratOn, held short session yesterday morning
at the Hopkins Art Institute. The committee
Is composed of George 7. Marye Jr., Charles
w. Slack and Columbus Bartlett, ana the OBJ
jeet of its meeting was generally supposed 10
be for the purpose of making preliminary in
VeSllgation into The charges now pending
against Professor Sladke, the instructor III the
mechanical department Of the university. The
session was brief one, and was strictly eX6cu.
tive IN its character, no one being admitted TO
the councils of tile committee. Al Its conclu-
sion the trustees present refused TO Lake pub
lie the nature of the business considered or The
result OF their deliberations. stating mat the
public al the present time could not have any
PARTICULAR interest in the work OF tie admins
tratlon committee. After refusing 10 make
public the deiugs OF the meeting, George L.
Marye Jr., Que of the trustees, said:
THE session was simply meeting of the
committee on internal administration. and not
OF the full board some had imagined. 1t was
a secre; meeting, and for the present the pro-
ceedings cannot be made public. They were
not OF particular interest anyhow, and will not
be made known"
Another OF The trustees refused TO say
whether Professor Sladke's case had been con-
sldered or not Even ii il had been, he said.
the committee could only report its findings 10
The board OF trustees. to be finally acted upon
by that body. judging from The length OF the
committees session, II is not probable that any
definite action was taken IN the matter.

CALIFORNIA FRUIT.
Mr.. Dana Says There Is None Better
Grown in the World.


The California fruit-growers have made a
serious mistake in sending 10 the London mar
ket Shipment of pears and plums that had
peen picked too late and were badly packed.
Ihey will never gain that alconsumng mar
ket In this way. They will very soon destroy
their chances Of success in il. We believe that
as soon as California fruits shall be properly
introduced in England, millions OF dollars
worth OF them will be bought there. England
alone could take all the surplus fruit crops of
California. OF course, we must hope she will
not do so; for we can take at least 81, 100000
worm OF them in New York City every year.
