CIRCUS PROMISED
At the Next Meeting of
the School Board.
President Hyde Says He Will Refuse
to Recognize Troy and Barrett
Whatever Comes.

The special meeting of the Board of
Education. which is called for next Mon
day evening-the time has been changed
from Friday, as was at first fixed upon
bids fair to develop such another scene as
did that Of Wednesday.
The call sets forth the necessity CT the
board taking action upon the reports of
committees and performing the duties that
devolve upon It, b Ut it is signed bv those
who led the fight for the seating of the two
new members, Troy and Barrett. and The
real purpose is 10 renew that fight The
members who are active in the matter dis
covered that they had made a mistake in
bringing about an adjournment before
they had reach ed the point of having the
new members officially repudiated, as
seemed likely to be the result of their
reaching that point, and they want to meet
again as soon as poss BILE for that purpose.
President Hyde was asked yesterday
what his action would be when the ques-
ton was fairly presented.
II will no recognize them," he said
promptly. st is true they come with
proper creden tials, but there are three
vacancies in the board, and il is not for
whose places they are to fill. DR.. Clinton
Is filing an untXDired term exactly as is
Mr.. Murdoch and DIR. Symmes, and yet
iney come in and take the places OF Mr..
Murdoch and Mr.. Symmes without asking
any questions. Suppose / asked DR.. Gin
ton 10 give way to one of these gentlemen?
He would not do it. Then how can l ask
either of these other gentlemen to do so?
No. we have no means o. deciding the
matter, and shall hold next Monday as
l did on Wednesday that they cannot take
their seat. / have consulted a number of
lawyers and parliamentarians on the mat
ter and they all say that my ruling was
correct.
81 know the anxiety these men feel to
take seats and of those who are so earn
estly championiug their cause. They
want TO ovPrturn the action of the board in
several very important matters.
SIT Is more than likely that there will
be an interesting time at the next meet
ing. but this / promise you that if their
point is insisted upon there will be no
business transacted"

CALIFORNIA WINES.
Plan Devised to Introduce Them Into
Rev York Restaurants.

A meeting OF the executive committee
of the State Viticultural Commission was
held yesterday morning for the purpose of
devi>ing means of advancing the con-
sumption of California wines in New
York.
The proposition of conducting cafe in
New York City. which occupied the etten-
ton of the board some months ago, was
first taken up, but after due consideration
it was generally agreed that the plan was
lmpracticable.
1t was suggested by Clarence Wetmore
that the most practicable plan would be tn
arrange with the management of some
good New York restaurant TO have placed
on exhibition within the establishment an
assorted display of leading California
wines, and to press their sale by rating the
various varieties and brands upon their
menus. This was looked upon as the most
logical of the various plans presen ted, and
its adoption is quite possible.
Secretary Winfield Scot was instructed
to communicate with B. R. Kntridge of
the Sonoma Wine and Brandy Company in
New York with a view of inquiring as to
the advsabilIty of tbs plan. Shonld a
restaurant be found that would favor the
proposition. immediate action will be taken
toward reaching an agreement.

New Directors.

Suit has been flied in the Superior Court
by Mrs. Nettie r. Craven against tHe
Board of Education, its members and
superintendent of Schools John SWEET for
a writ of prohibition restraining the de-
PENDANTS from disrating the plaintiff.
Mrs. Craven is the principal of the
Mission Grammar School and complains
that she has in Cured the enmity of F. A.
Hyde and j. Z. Burke, two of the outgoing
Board OF Scn0Ol Directors. 5 he says that
hyde has threatened TO "get even" with
her, charging her at the same time with
working against his nomination at the last
munlclpal convention. The upshot of
THIS Mrs. Craven declares to be that the
School Directors proposed TO disrate her
by transferring her from her position at
Tue Mission Grammar School to au iDsti-

STRIKERS HOPEFUL.
The Government May Dismiss the
Charges Against Them.

The strikers who are being tried in the
United States District Court. and those
who have heen indicted and may be tried,
rejoiced yesterday when they learned that
AttOrnev-General Oluey had ordered the
charges against the st. Louis strikers dis
missed. They think that the Government
will show as much mercy 10 them as it
showed to the men Of Missouri, but District
Attorney Knight has another opinion. He
does not think the charges will be dis
missed, because the crimes laid at the doors
of the California strikers are more serious
than those of which the St. Louis strikers
were accused.
The trial still drags its weary length
along in the District Court, its nOnotOny
occasionally relieved by a tilt between
counsel. Juror Stone still asks questions
while Attorney MOnteith is cross-examin-
ing witnesses, aud yesterday aroused the
lawyers wrath by his Interruptions. Mr..
MOnteith called the atten ton of the court
Ia the jurors misconduct" and declared
that he had never encountered such a case
during the fourteen years of his practice.
Judge Morrow admonished the attorney
that he cnuld not pronerly criticize the
jury. and Mr.. MOnteth replied that he had
DO occasion 10 criticize that body.

several deputy sheriffs, VINO testified that

4 PIONEERS END.
Captain Gilman Dies
From His Injuries.
Sketch of the Career of One of the
Early Settlers Who Came
90 the Coast.

Captain Henry Gilman, who was struck
by wagon and thrown violently against
a ca ble-car, while crossing Market street
to New Montgomery Wednesday morn
ing. died at the Receiving Hospital yester-
day afternoon and his body was removed
to the MOrgue.
Captain Gilman was born in Bangor Me-,
his father Allan Gilman. being the first
Mayor of that city. When young man
he was the travelling partner of the firm
of Hodgburn d Carr. who RAJ an express
business between Bangor and Boston.
The stories which flashed across the con-
tinent telling of the discovery of gold in
California seemed o awaken within him
a restless yearning for adventure and for
tune which was only subdued when he
disposed of his interest in the firm and
prepared for the long trip around the
horn.
During the spring Of 80 he arrived in
San Francisco and through the aid of all
Influential friend was appointed captain
of the steamer Senator, which piled be-
tween this city ana Sacramento.
After a service Of five years his health
became impaired and demanded change.
Considering the value OF his services the
California Navigation Company. into
whose hands the Senator had fallen,
placed him at the head of the Marysyilie
Office, which in those days was the termi-
nal of the river service.
After serving in the latter capacity for
nearly score oil year, and having a c.
CURED considerable wealth, Captain Gill
man returned to this city intent upon re-
firing from active life.
His dreams OF happiness and freedom,
however, were never realized. Within a
week after his arrival that wealth which
had been carefully accumulated for years
Ivy srdu0us labor was lost through specu-
lation on Pine street In one single day.
Almost penniless the dsheariened man
was taken as purser upon one Of the
coasters belonging to the Ben Holiday
line, which subs quently became the Pa
cifc Coast Steamship Company.

into the auditing department of Wells.
Fargo e. Co, in which capacity be served
until the time of his death.
Captain Gilman had made many close
friends during his early residence on this
coast. and the news of his death will be
received by them with much regret.
Captain Lees has commenced rigid in
ve5tlgation into the cause of the fatal acct
dent. 1t was at this same crossing that p.
