AMENDED AFFIDAVITS
To Be Filed by the Railroad Com
misStoners in the Suit Brought
bX the Southern Pacific.

To Be Filed by the Railroad Conn
misstoners in the Suit Brought
by the Southern Pacific.
In view of the Southern Pacific Company
having amended it's original complaint
Acknowledgement Fitzgerald has deter
mined to withdraw ali the affidavits made
by Railroad Commissioners La Rue and
Stanton in the case of the Southern Pacific
Company versus the Railroad Commits.
sion of California and to substitute others
to conform to the complaint as amended.
Notice to this effect was served yesterday
upon William F. Herrin, solicitor of the
Southern Pacific Company.
In the original complaint, and in the
athdavits on behalf of the Southern Pa
cifc Company, the statements of earnings
and expenditures were made to refer to
the entire Pacific system of the Southern
Pacific Company. In the amendment
other statements relative to earnings and
expenditures were Incorporated, which re-
ferred to the lines and portions OF lines
operated within the State, notwithstand-
ing the fact that during the investigation
held before the Railroad Commission some
weeks ago the officials of the Southern Pa
cifc testified that it was impossible to seq
regate the local earnings and expenditures
from the through business.
The original affidavits OF the Railroad
Commissioners took exceptions to the
statements of the various railroad officials,
on the ground that they referred only to
the Pacific system, and that in conse-
quence they were too general and vague
to permit of the court rendering decision
as to whether or not the rates fixed by the
Railroad Commission for transportation
within the State were reasonable. In the
amended affidavits of the Commissioners
it will be charged that the railroads state,
ments in the amendment to tie original
complaint are also too general and vague
to permit of the court rendering decision
in the matter at issue, as the earnings and
expenditures are given in the aggregate

Palace and Grand hotels to the Presidio,
through Montgomery or Kearny streets,
passing the Occidental, Lick, California,
Russ, New Western and Commercial ho-
tells, to Montgomery avenue, from which
point continuous marine view can be
had for many miles, making one OF the
most picturesque drives on the PACING
Coast.
The main instigators of the scheme are
property-owners and business men around
the functions of Kearny and Montgomery
streets and Montgomery avenue.
The rougher element is gradually taking
possession of that section of the City,
which greatly deteriorates the value OF
property, and the owners have become
cognizant of the fact that something must
be done in order to keep this class OF peo'
pie from locating there.
It is known fact that wherever civiliza-
ton and responsibility predominant the
rougher element cannot exist. What is
now known as Barbary coast has greatly
quieted down since the introduction OF
electric and cable cars through its streets,
and it is upon this basis that the business
men have determined, If possible, to carry
the scheme through.
A petition has been drawn up and will
be forwarded to the Board of Supervisors
within few days asking that this matter
receive their Immediate attention. In
order to complete this boulevard to its
proposed terminus it only remains neces-
sary that the two blocks of Bay street, be-
tween Larkin and Van Ness avenue, be
paved. Kearny street is almost com
pletely bituminized, and although Mont
gomery avenue is paved with basal'
blocks, it is but a short distance to the
we'll macadamized and paved streets
selected for the route of the boulevard. II
is true that the three blocks on Van Ness
avenue, between Bay and LON bard streets
are as yet unpaved, but provision for theil
being pa red was made by the Board Of
Supervisors short time ago, and wors
will commence within few weeks upor
the street by the parties who received the
contract for its i'm provement.
Improvement Committee of the Board Of
Supervisors will be invited by number
of the petitioners to take a trip over the
proposed boulevard in order that he may
see that the plan is feasible one.
Up to few days ago, Van Ness avenue
was obstructed by fences and drying rack:
belonging to the Pioneer Wooden Mills
but the Van Ness Avenue improvement
Club took the matter in hand, and they
have been removed; consequently, there il
now an unobstructed driveway from tn,
the ferries to the Preside.
All that now remains to be done to maxi
| it an attractive boulevard and one of tn,
most popular drives in the City is to have
the unpaved portions OF the drive i'm
| proved, and the petitioners have deter
mined that, if possible, this one drawback
shall be remedied.

brothers, and has changed hands several times
since One of the Boeckmanns sold out to A.

his throat because he could not marry
wealthy widow with whom he was smitten.
Graner purchased the other half, and when the
doors were closed yesterday it was great sur
prise to the regular patrons.

SFather of Fusi0n' Eared.

When the United States Senate APP
points a committee to confer with Tom
Settle and gets his consent to rc-organ-
ize, it will probably do So"
Thus spoke Maj. Hiram l.. Grant, who
arrived in Raleigh from Washington
Yesterday. There was a trace of irony
in his voice, but there was fire in it
also, and what iron il contained was
red-hot
When will you return TO Washing
ton?" asked reporter.
oh, suppose | shall return when
Settle arranges with the Senate and
consents for ii to proceed with its
work.
There Was a slight trace OF sarcasm
in this, but the sarcasm was almost hid
behind look of supreme disgust that
fairly glistened in the countenance of
the gentleman from Wayne.
Settle will doubtless be busy for
soale weeks yet perfecting the organi-
cation of the House, after that he will
probably give his attention TO the Sen
ate and fix up some plan of Senate or
ganization," continued the eager aspi-
rant for sergeant alarms, with still
more sarcasm and considerably more
disgust.
Grant is pritchard's and Buffers
candidate and it is understood that the
position of sergeant-at-arms is the
price TO be paid for Buffers aid in re-
organization.
Grant has been slated for the place,
but now it seems that Settle has got
hold of the slate, and if he has not bro
ken it to pieces, he has at least rubbed
off the name of Grant.
1t is not known why Major Grant
came way round by Greensboro and
Raleigh 10 get To Goidsboro. 1t is bare
IL possible that he wanted TO see Loge
Harris. Mott and others and tell them
what Settle was doing and what

was at the depot to take the tram for
Goldsboro, but when he met Mott he
concluded TO stay in Raleigh a day
longer. So the two went TO the Park

STEAMER TO BE BUILT.

The directors of the Clearwater
Navigation Co. held their first meet
ing yesterday in this city and cleo
ted officers as follows, says the Lew
iston Tribue: President, F. n Hal
let; vice president and manager, J.
II. Brown; secretary and treasurer,
Geo. w. Morrison. The company
has in preparation set of plans
and specifications for their proposed
steamboat on which the contract for
the hull will be let as soon as fin
ished. 1t is proposed to have the
timbers cut in Portland by exper-
fenced ship carpenters and brought
to Lewiston where it will be put to-
gether. The company are deter
mined and sanguine, and having
thoroughly examined the Difficult
ties to be overcome are convinced
of the practica bility of their enter
prise. They will open offices in
Lewiston in a few days and arrange
for establishing warehouses along
the Clearwater river. Lewiston is
certainly glad to secure these young
men as citizens, and they may ex-
pect every proper assistance and en-
couragement in their enterprise.
