TWO LEGAL OPINIONS.
City Attorney w. r. CoWan and
Lawyer A. 3. Ware for the
Water Company.

cit was star chamber proceeding
throughout and illegal and irregular as
WELL" said Attorney A. 3. Ware, who is
counsel for the Taxpayers Union in the
suit now pending against the city authori-
ties. "Our position is best stated, perhaps,
in the complaint filed against the city.
In that document the invalidity of the
bonds and contract is claimed on two
grounds. First-That fatal iurisdictionaI
defects exist in the proceedings prelimi-
nary to the supposed issuance of the bonds
and letting Of the supposed contract.
Second-That the defendants were guilty
of fraud in suppressing and conspiring to
suppress free bidding, whereby it is claimed
that the contract was let for at least
$31 600 higher than if it had been fairly let
in an open market after, instead of before
sale or supposed sale of the bonds; and
in allowing and causing one of their num-
ber the original contractor for the work of
construction, to exchange the bonds for
the mere promise to perform the work.
1--WE allege further that there was no
money In the treasury applicable to the
construction OF the water works at the date
of two certain bids, or supposed bids. and
that this fact was known to the authori-
ties; that the written portion of the two
bids were in the same handwriting; that
one A. L. Fish informed the defendant
that he would bid $13O, 900 if the bonds
were first sold and the money placed in
the treasury, and that the said amount is
the full value for the proposed work that
there was less than SAC, 900 in the treasury
when certain warrant for $751; 900 was
ordered in favor of the contractor by the
nun icipal authorities, and that this $40
600 was not part of the fund provided for
the construction of the water works, and
that all the defendants knew it; that the
bonds are now in New York and that the
minutes of the Council are silent as to
their disposition; that the contractor is
almost, if not wholly, insolvent; that it

with the other two short heads apart. The
winner covered the distance in the re-
markably good time of :4034.
A five and one-half furlong run, with light
welter weights up, opened the days sport
and resulted in hollow victory for the
second choice, Selkirk, who led all the way
and won by six lengths, pulled up. The

The fifth race, five and half furlong

Williams After Lorentzen.

The charge of disobeying orders preferred by
Captain Lorentzen of the bark Oakland against
Steward John Williams was dismissed by
United States Commissioner Heacock yester-
day. Lorentzen's ground of complaint was
that Williams had not put out two slices of
bread for the night watch, though told to do
SO. Williams now threatens to try to substan-
tiate an accusation he makes that Lorentzen
gave too much laudanum to Captain Mcguire
while the latter was sick. Captain Mcguire
died on the voyage.

the body its sparkling, vitalizing powers are

Exciting Finish From Fan.

FAvoR1TEs WON THREE EVENTS
The Veteran Oregon Eclipse Proved
Too Much of a Slayer for
Ferris Hartm

The win of Caliente yesterday certainly does
not speak well for Hinrichs ride on the colt q
few days back. In that race he got cut off at
the start, falling back and never getting near
the front again. Yesterday with Coady, an in
ferior rider, up, he fell back to last position, but
went through his field in the stretch like race
horse and won in the remarkably good time of
1:O1L.
The stewards held meeting at the conclu-
sion of the races to look into the peculiar ride
made by A. Williams on Montana in the last
race. The boy appeared utterly incapable and
the racers owner would probsbly be requested
to put UP more competent rider in future. He
was backed down from % to II to 1. The
horse was full of run, but Williams took him
completely out of the race making his run
only when to win meant an impossibility.
The owners of good horses seem to be
keeping their charges under cover, for yes
terday's card was made up of a very ordin-
airy lot of selling platers. The track was
bullet fast and fast time was the general
rule. OF the six favorites, three lasted long
enough to get to the wire in front, while
two second-choices and one outsider COB
bled up the other events.

Although the pope is in very good
health and is devoting himself with
ardor to the reunion of the eastern
and western churches, which is be-
ing discussed by the conference of
patriarcks, his holiness has given
orders for the preparation of his own
tomb. The celebrated sculptor, Sig
nor Maccagnani, has received the
commission to set about the work.
The monument, which is to be of
white Carrara marble. is to be sar-
cophagus, on which will repose IL
lion, with his fore paws resting on
the papal tiara. To the right there
will be a statue of Faith, with a torch
in one hand and the Scriptures in the
other, and to the left a figure of
Truth, the hand laid on the coat of
arms of tine Pecci family. The only
inscription on the tomb will be {:

Away in that direction clattered
the sergeant and his men, up the
next divide and over it. Half way
down the steep SLOPE, leading into a
dark gorge, they came upon the dead
body OF Spaniard, pierced through
the temple by an arrow. And be-
low, in the chaparral, crashing about
in it, madly shaking IFS wild tops,
some hidden creatures were fighting.
The nine soldiers disnounted.
Leaving one to keep the horses from
stampoding, the others flew forward,
stopped low and peered into the
thicket, where Spanish youth and
a naked Indian giant were wrestling
in horrible embrace.
Shoot him and save thy life!'
yelled the sergeant, plunging about
with drawn pistol like a mailman,
but afraid TO shoot lest he should hit
Ignacio
Then another glance showed him
that Ignacio had no gun Before the
sergeant could contrive to get in a
bullet the comandante's son rose up
pcrmost, triumphant, kneeling up
on tho breast and right arm of the
PROSTATE Indian, whose other arm
was skewered to the ground by
dagger.

At midnight the slender garrison

leaped from their beds to stare at
Salero's grim bulk and to cry out
with one voice at Ignacio's torn gar

had been victor until the sergeant
