ATTORNEY COLLINS PART.
He Is Placed in a Position to Ap-
peal the Citizenship
Question.
Made an Adviser of the Federal Court
in the Chinese Test Case of
Wong Kim Ak.

George D. Collins, the young attorney,
whose articles in the American Law Re-
view on the subject of citizenship of Amer
ican-born Chinese have commanded at
tention from the Department of Justice at
Washington, was yesterday appointed
amicus curie-the friend or adviser of the
court-in the Wong Kim Ak test case.
This was done at the request of Attor-
neyGeneral Harmon, and means, it is
given out, that in the event of decision
from Judge Morrow adverse to the posi-
tion taken by United States District Attor-
ney Foote, Mr.. Collins will carry the ques-
ton up to the United States Supreme
Court for an unmistakable decision on the
question of citizenship.
Mr.. Collins name has become very famil-
lar to the legal profession on account OF
his numerous contributions to the journal
quoted, and in 1890 his nomination for At
torney-General of the State was requested
of the Republican State Convention at Sac
ramento by the Bar Association. Mr..
Collins health, however, would not permit
him to run for the office.
He takes the position that the question
of citizenship does not concern American
born Chinese only, but that every child of
parents subject to foreign power is not
entitled to be considered a citizen. He
charges Judge Fields decision in the Look
Tin Sing case in 1884, in the United States
Circuit Court. with being virtually that
jurist's own dissenting opinion in the
''slaughter-house" cases decided by the
United States Supreme Coutt in 1872.
His article in the American Law Review
closed with this bold conclusions:
We think we have adduced enough proof to
render it incumbent upon the Government to
question the correctness OF Judge Fields de-
cision and to invoke the higher authority of
the Supreme Court to obtain final determina-
ton of this most important issue No decision
OF nisi prius court should ever be elevated to
the dignity OF stare decisis.
One of Mr.. Collins strong foundations is
Judge Storeys decison, rendered soon
after the American Revolution, viz:
Children born in this country partake of
the national character of the father as
citizen Of that country to which he is sub
ject."
Mr. Collins first article in the review
was used as authority by the Supreme
Court in deciding a Massachusetts case
that of Elk VS.. Wilkins-in which an In
dian claimed citizenship. The particular
point used from Mr.. Collins was that the
same Congress which submitted the
fourteenth amendment to the people
with its words, "All persons born in
diction thereof also passed the civil
rights bill, in which the words sail per-
sons born in the United States and not
subject to any foreign power" occur, show
ing that jurisdiction meant political and
not merely territorial.
Mr.. Collins said that Judge Field told
him and Professor John Norton Pomerov
case, the Circuit Court intended to send up
to the Supreme Court a certificate of divi-
sion of opinion. He calls the Field deci-
sion very poor law.

COMMITTEE OF FIFTY,
Significance of It's Decided Action on Tu,
day Night

Significance of Its Decided Action on Tues
day Night.
There was genuine and undis guised
excitement in Democratic political circles
yesterday over the showing made by the
committee of fifty on Tuesday night when
it was reported that 251 members of the
present general committee had pledged
themselves to avoid any atfiliation with
Buckley or his sympathizers.
Ex-Supervisor James Denman. who has
taken an active part in the fight against
Buckley, was seen about the matter YES
terdav. "The political importance of the
showing made by the committee of fifty in
getting adherents to its cause can hardly
be overestimated," he said. land we con-
fidently expect the complete overthrow of
Buckley.
The 251 names brought in on Tuesday
night by the district committees represent
a compile MAJ jority of the general commit
tee and will be able to force an adjourn
ment whether Buckley and his people
want it or not.
1--WE may be able TO gain more votes by
the time the committee meets and will
make every effort to do so, but whether
we do or not will not make great deal of
difference, for we believe that the men
who have pledged themselves will stand
by their word, and the general committee,
which should have adjourned sine die two
years ago, will pass out of existence.
"Those members of the committee who
stand by their guns will constitute the
nucleus of the committee of 400 which we
expect will take the place of the disbanded
body, and after the adjournment we will
get in the 200 names that are yet lacking,
taking care of course to see that none of
the new members are tainted with Buck
leyism.
I'VE anticipate a fight, and a hot one,
for the Buckleyites are trying to form COM
binations on all sides and will make de-
termined attempt to have the present gen.
eral committee continue in existence, but
we do not fear the result and with our
chairman, Mr.. Sullivan, to lead we believe
that Buckley will sustain a defeat which
will put him out of politics for many days

SUFFRAGE NOT YET.
Miss Ray Frank on Other Aspects
of the Woman Prob

Miss Ray Frank delivered the conclud-
ing lecture of very successful course at
Beethoven Hall. Hotel Savoy, last night
to q delighted audience. Miss Frank
treated her subject in a comprehensive and
logical manner. "Other Aspects of the
Woman Problem" was the title of the
lecture.
This eloquent young woman, who is
noted as the only accredited woman
preacher in the Jewish faith, does not &C.
cept the common idea of equal rights.
Laying aside oratory and the discursive
stvle of speech to which her mind and
voice are SO admirably adapted, Miss
Frank, after few Introductory words,
plunged into an argument which
bore many strong points and no
weak ones. She contended that
if woman has been so long under the con-
troll of man as to be dominated by him as,
she declared the suffragists claim, then she
is not in the proper frame of mental de-
velopment to go into politics and assist in
the control of the Nation.
If woman is to become the equal of man
in this. as she held woman to be the equal
of man in many things, Miss Frank
thought she ought to begin a preparatory
course.
But the lecturer argued that there was a
more uSeIul uelO IOT woman Jlan the as
sumption of the reins of Government.
That field was the home, field that the
woman of to-day was not cultivating, she
insisted, to the extent that was possible.
She claimed that woman was herself re-
sponsible for many of the evils complained
of.
"Let the mothers admit to their homes
only good men, and there will be an in
crease OF good men in the world, she said
She charged the women with the re-
sponsibility of the injustices done to
women employees in stores and factories.
She declared that the tireless grind of the
business man in the accumulation of
wealth was due to the desire to please
wives, mothers, daughters and sisters.
Let the women demand fewer of the
Injuries of life" said she, "and there will
be fewer hardships practiced upon en-
ployes, both male and female"
The following named ladies were the
patronesses of the course:
Mrs. D. N. Walter, Mrs J. H. Neustadter, Mrs.
William Haas, Mrs. Jacob Stern, Mrs. S. Blum,

ARE TO LIGHT THE PARK.
Commissioner Austin Says the
Driveway Will Be Illu-
minated.
Money Promised by Men Whose Bust.
ness Will Be Benefited by the
Improvement.

Golden Gate Park is to be lighted to the
sea. 1t will not be done Immediately, but,
If the plans of the Park Commissioners
carry, the time Will not be far distant.
This action has long been wished for by
wheelmen, drivers and the public in gen
eral. 1t has never before taken definite
and tangible shape, however.
A start in the right direction has been
made. Four masts have been erected in
the Panhandle. The Park Commissioners
are greatly pleased with the placing OF
these lights and hope eventually to have
the great driveway illuminated TO the sea.
Commissioner Joseph Austin last even
ing said:
We are desirous of lighting the park. 1t is
desirable for many reasons and am sure that
the public as a whole wish it. There are some,
] suppose, who would oppose the idea, but
they are in a vast minority
The Withholding of the tax levy has upset
all our plans. We have been unable to get any
money since July and, of course, have been
forced to leave undone everything except what
was absolutely n necessary.
We would like to light the park as soon as
possible This year fear thatwe will be un-
able to raise the sum required. We would be
pleased, however. to second the efforts of those
who first advocated the idea, and Will assist in
any way we can in bringing about the desired
end.
Some time ago, q number of gentlemen
owning pleasure resorts and restaurants near
the Cliff, and others who would be profited by
an increase of travel along the driveways of
the park, organized to secure the lighting of
the driveways. Now, if they will raise sum
of money sufficient to enable us to be sure of
funds to carry out our plans, the Park Commits
sioners will be able to spare something, $4,000
or $4,000 perhaps, this first year. After that
we will have no trouble in attending to the
lighting
The cost OF renting lights from the Edison
company will be about $1,000 or $4,000 year.
AS the park would need about fifty lights it
would be more economical, therefore, for US to
have our own plant. We have not money
enough for this.now, as I said, but we hope to
be able to do something with the assistance of
those interested.
SUPERINTENDENT of the Park McLaren,
who has done much toward the improve
ment of the park, is one of the most earnest
advocates of lighting the main drive.
Such a step. he argues, would make the
park available to many who, working in
shops and factories through the day, can
not go out except in the evening. There
are others who like to drive at night, but
now can only go out on moonlight nights,
as San Francisco has no well-lighted
drives. Superintendent McLaren said:
That the wasslmsp would appreciate we'll

The Junta's Enemies Hold Meetings
and Talk Victory.
In interesting contrast to the inactivity
and declarations of the Junta were the
activity and declarations that were to be
found at the Occidental Club last night.
The big clubhouse was crowded from
basement to roof. An informal caucus of
Buckley members of the general commit
tee had been called, and it was asserted
that 1872 were present. This was the first
getting together of this faction of the
committee since the one in California Hall
on Bush street.
Proceedings ran late and the only
definite information about it given out
was that President James O'Connor
would see Chairman Watkins to-day and
find out to a certainty what Watkins pro-
posed to do about calling meeting of the
committee. The report that it would be
called on Saturday was indefinite at the
club, and they proposed to force the tight
A petition for a meeting addressed to
President O'Connor was signed by
fifty members, and the arrangement was
that O'Connor should call meeting to-
day fer Saturday night if Mr.. Watkins as
surances were not satisfactory.
Arrangements were also made Tor
meeting to be held this week by two gene
raj committeeman from each district to
take measures in the line of organization
for the battle.
A great deal is going on outside of the
meetings of the rival factions, and the
proceedings of the Deuprey committee and
this outside, quiet work may be of mnch
greater influence and moment. The
Buckley leaders are working with strong
p4rty influences outside of the Deuprey
and general committees TO secure the inn
mediate end they are aiming at-a prim-

Mrs. Robert Louis Stevenson VIII Sail
for the Samoan Islands To-
Day.


Mrs. Robert Louis Stevenson, widow of
the great novelist, will sail this morning
for her island home in Samoa. She will
be accompanied by her daughter, Mrs.
Belle Strong, and her son. Lloyd Osborne.
Mr.. Osborne is quite i'll, but it was ex-
pected last evening that he would be able
to go. Mrs. Stevenson's mission to Samoa
is to arrange some business affairs there.
She will probably return to this City before
long. Since her arrival here she has been
residing with her son and daughter at
Montgomery avenue, the lodging-house
that so long under Mother Hunts" man
agement was haunt of Bohemians. 1t
was there that Robert Louis Stevenson
stayed while in this City, and although
house so popular has passed to her long
rest it still remains a headquarters for
