VALIDITY of Street Railway popss

Los Angeles. Cal, Oct. 20.-The opinion
OF the supreme court in the case Of the
Market street Railway Company, OF San
Francisco. VS.. Hellman, on appeal from
the lower court was handed down yester-
day. confirming the validity of $1,000 900
worth OF bonds issued by the street rail
way company. The decision is OF great
importance, not only to San Francisco
railroad circles and bond buyers, but to
other cities having bonded railroads.
In October. 1893, eleven street railroad
corporations were consolidated under tie
name of the Market STREET Railway Com
pany. The consolidated companies own
nearly every street car line in the city.
and they have franchises for some leO
miles OF track. There was an outstand-
ing bonded debt owed by the consolidation
amounting to S7.035, 600. and to refund this
Indebtedness and get more money for
construction purposes the directors made
a blanket mortgage on all the property of
the combine for $l7,50o.000 New bonds for
the amount OF the outstanding bonds were
TO be Issued at once under this MORTGAGE
ana substituted for the old issue Suisse
quently, the manner in which the bonds
were Issued was attacked, but this decis-
Ion sustains the action Of the COMPANY.

KICKING THE GOAL.


"A scrub football team from the Seattle

grounds Saturday afternoon and played
a short practice game with a hastily Sc
lected team from the university. New
men were tried by both teams, the object
being merely to afford the respective cap
tainS chance 10 see what green material

on bothsides was quite ragged, bat from
the present outlook the new material will
prove quits valuable before the season is
over. The halves were short and the
score at the finish was University IL, Sc

The Seattle Athletic Club is working
hard to asst the university as much as
