AN AWKWARD DILEMMA.
A SAN FRANCISCO FREEHOLDER
CANNOT QUALIFY.
1. w. HOLMAN Was Elected But Lacko
the Required Residence in
tho Gate CITY.

San FRANcIsCo, Dec. 19.-It is now de-
olared that the recent election of l5
freeholdere to frame a new charter for
San Francisco has come to uaught. An
awkward legal tangle was brought up
today by some of the attorneys inter-
ested in having rything straight in
getting the city new charter, and the
way the matter now looks it would not
be surprising if the entire election for
freeholders 10 declared TO be illegal.
Several weeks ago some one suggested
that President Hellman OF the Nevada
bank, who was one OF the 10 freeholders
declared elected, wes not qualified to
hold that Office from not having been, as
the law pro yides, "a qualified elector OF
the city and county ior five years pre-
ceding such election"
Hellman admita that up to three
years ago be was resident OF Los Ange-
les. This being fact, be cannot qualify
as q mem Der OF the board, which must
be constituted OF Is members, and under
numerous decisions OF the higher courts
it is held thar tho Office cannot be held
by the candidate W ho stood sixteenth
in the number OF Noses poiled.
OF all the candidates who failed of
election, Attorney Patrick Reddy re-
ceived the highest number of votes, but
under the law hs cannot become = mems
Der of the board in place OF tHeilman.

By tho Associated Press.
WAsmINGroN, Doc. 10. One OF the
most important cases Of the year was
taken up il the United States supreme
court today. II involves the validity OF the
title OF the Southern Pacific company to
the water front of Oakland. California.
The grant was originally made ia 1867
to the town of Oakland. then q mere
hamlet. OF large tract OF land extend
ing from high water mark to the ship
channel, to enable the town (Which was
incorporated in tine same acD to create
Q hsrbor and construct wharves.
This grant Was conveyed to HoraoeW.
Carpenter by the trustees of the town,
on his agreement to perform certain con-
oitions required of the town by the
granting act OF the legislature. Cons
troversies arose between Carpenter and
the authorities of Oakland after its in
corporation nn a city in 1864.
These caimj were all adjusted in 1868
under authority of the Legislature con-
ferred on the city council and mayor for
that purpose. From Carpenter the
title now attacked by the state of Cali
fornia was transferred to the railroad
company. The present suit is brought
to quiet title.
The state is represented by Attorney
General Hart and with him are assistant
counsel for the city OF Oakland and also
John S. Miller of Chicago, who WAS
counsel for that city III the famous lake
front case, which ha took from the llli-
nois Central its supposed right to sub =
merged lands constituting the water
front OF Chicago in Lake Michigan. On
the side of the railroad we're William
Stewart, senator from Nevada; J. Hub
ley Ashton of Washington; j. X. Cowan
and Hugh l.. Bond. jr., of Baltimore.
and Harvey d. Brown of San Francisco.
The case will be opened by Attorney
General Hart of California who will con-
eend by the principles laid down in the
Chicago lake front case, the state OF
California had not the power to grant
the submerged lands in the Bay OF San
Francisco which are the subject OF con-
tention.
The most interesting feature OF the
case is the professed willingness of both
sides to be governed by the law in the
lake front cases, which both assert to be
directly in their favor. The case will
doubtless occupy the time of the court
for the remainder OF the week. The
property involved is said to be valued at
$20,000,000. The case is brought origin
ally in the supreme court and has not
been heard in lower court.
