THE CHIEF JUSTICE DENIES 1T.
1t Is Characterized as a GroundIess
Rumor.

. Rumor.
Rumors have been rife for the past week
or two that the Supreme Courts decision
over the question of the removal of the
capital from Sacramento had been decided.
The question is one that has excl ed the
greatest interest. Property-owners end
other interested parties have Wed with
each other in expressing opinions on the
subject and more than once a positive
rumor has been circulated to the effect
that decision had been arrived at by the
Supreme Court. But in each case the
rumor has been found to be grOundless.
Yesterday con siderable amaZement was
excited In San Francisco by the publica-
ton Of an article in the Sacramento Bee
claiming that the Supreme Court had
finally decided that the location OF the
capital must remain in statu quo, !. g., thai
the next State Legislature would meet In
Sacramento. 1t was confidently stated
that lengthy opinion on the subject had
been written by Supreme Court Justice
C. ii. Garoutte and concurred in by every
other Justice on the bench.
The statement in question may possibly
be correct in the nature of prophecy, but

Justice W. II. Beatty of the Supreme
Court alphabetically denied the report last
night and said it was the first he had heard
of it. If such decision was arrived at he
ought to know it for one. 1t was not the
first time that such idle rumors had been
spread. Meanwhile, it is not in the
memory of the oldest lawyer in the State
that the contents of Supreme Court de-
cision have been made known before the
