NOTES ABOUT THE SCHOOLS.
An Incident That Caused Alarm at the
West Street Building.


A panel of the stucco work on the front
of the West street school building fell to
the pavement and caused report that
greatly alarmed the teachers and pupils,
but they soon became assured that moth
ing serious had happened and the school
work went on. Fortunately no one was
passing on the pavement at the time the
fall occurred.
Under authority of Superintendent
Whitaker all the public schools yesterday
afternoon devoted half an hour after
three o'clock to Memorial exercises,
which consisted of singing Of national
anthems and literary exercises so selected
as to give the pupils an idea of the object
in observing Decoration Day. Marches
and the display of the national colors
also formed part of the exercises in some
of the schools.

STILL UNyANQUISHED.
The SpartanS Show the Students Tricks
on the Diamond.

OH INC DldluUHus
A very interesting game of base ball
Overlooking the errors) was played at the
Trotting park yesterday between the
Spartans and the Students and the former
were victorious. The Students are young
men who have made study of base ball
at the various colleges of the country
and have had the benefit Of points from
players who have led the Yale, Princeton,
Harvard and such college teams to victory
The Spartans are workingmen who are
busy every day earning their livelihood at
desks, behind counters, at weigh scales
and in other positions of srduous labor
and have been obliged to CLEAN what
they know about the national game
during the limited hours intervening
between the expiration of their working
time and nightfall. They have not had
the advantages of college training which
their opponents of yesterday enjoyed, yet
they have successfully competed with all
comers and remain the unvanquished
champions.
The score was a close one and the
Spartans had to hustle to retain their
championship, but they say that had they
deemed it necessary different complex
ion could have been put on the game.
There were times when they played quite
yellow, more to spare the ambitious
Students humiliating defeat than any
thing else, and the champions say that If
the brainy young again venture to assert
their superiority they will be showed
under.

Southern Pacific Company to the Govern
ment by having imposed upon them ex-
orbitant rates.
"In any event. should the United States
restrain US, so far as this particular line is
concerned, it will at once be seen that it
would affect very small portion of the
local business of the Southern Pacific Com
pany, as the traffic over the Central Pacific
is composed mostly of through business.
1.-The COMMISSION has nothing to do with
the debt-paying capacity or ability of the
railroads operating within the State of
California. Our sole duty is to determine
what are reasonable rates and to establish
them. The situation, so far as the Central
Pacific Railroad is concerned, is the same
as that of road in the hands of a receiver.
1t has been decided in numerous cases
that the fact of a road being in the hands
Of receiver does not justify the receiver in
committing an illegal act, such as the
charging of excessive rates, and therefore
l claim that the Government has no proper
legal standing in this case. The only
issue to be decided by the courts is as to
the reasonableness or unreasonableness of
the rates which have been fixed by the
commission, and no matter which way
that decision is given cannot see IN what
way the United States will be wronged.
THE Federal Government might Just as
well attempt to enjoin the City and
county OF San Francisco from collecting
its taxes this year from the Central Pacific
Railroad Company owing to the great in
crease IN the tax levy as compared with
that OF one year ago. This increased tax

respond to the toast, "The day and a.

George W. Dickie of the Union Iron
Works responded feelingly to the toast,
"The Land O Cakes" in which he said !:
Though it is many years that have
been in this land of gold, l have never lost
any OF my love for the "land O. cakes My
heart is just as full of feeling for her as
any Scotchman's here tonight. and you
know Scotch heart is very big and a
very warm one, especially if it beats in the

alton interferes with the debt-paying
capacity of the Central Pacific Company
equally as much as would any reduction
in its transportation charges.
'Or take another instance. Suppose a
competing road to the Central Pacific
should be constructed and operated and
charge lower rates than the Central
Pacific. The Government, according to
the position it now assumes, would pre-
sumably have the right to step in and say
to the managers of the Central Pacific
Railroad that they shall not reduce rates
to basis that would allow them to secure
a proper proportion of the business offer
ing. Absurd as such proposition must
strike every one as being, it is no more so
than one that would impose upon the
shippers of California excessive transporta-
ton rates simply because a transportation
company owes money TO the Government

Judge Morrow of the United States Dis

gave his instructions to the new Federal

In his admonition he told them that
they should not even be questioned, and
he commanded them to report the facts to
him in case they were approached by any
body as to inquiries relative to their de-
liberations. His instructions were, in
substance:
You, and each of you, are admonished. or

THE GOVERNMENT TO AID Mr.. HUNTING TON,

/! Monday morning, December 9, / shall APP
pear before Judge McKenna and make a
motion to be allowed to file on behalf of
the Government of the United States a bill
of intervention in the case of the Southern
, Pacific Company against the Railroad
Commissioners of the State OF California.
What the contents of that bill are to be am
not privileged at this time to divulge.
Should [ get the consent of the court to
tile it it will then become a matter of
record and public property, but there is a
possibility that the court may not give its
consent to the filing of this document, and
therefore to make ii public at this time
considered proper official conduct. but
would be giving publicity to matters that
may never by right become the property
of the public"
Railroad Commissioner Stanton received
the news of the proposed Intervention of
the Government in the case in which he is
one of the defendants with astonishment
and indignation.
~ do not see,'' said he. ION what
grounds the Federal Government can in
terfere in his matter. | have always
maintained that the only question in
volyed is as to The reasonableness of the
rates that have been or may be fixed by
the commission. The Railroad Commits
sion of this State has delegated to it under
make rates. and if the rates so made are
reasonable and compensate the carrier for
the service performed, it seems to me that
no authority would be vested in any one,
not even the Federal Government, to inter-
fere with their action, as such rates would
be perfectly legal charges for transporta-
zion over the lines of the railroads they
affect.
"The only schedule thus far issued by
this commission is the one containing the
grain rates, making a reduction of per
cent. AS this reduction was the one pro-
posed by me can speak the more authori-
tatively concerning it. l was particularly
careful in suggesting that measure to be
fair with both the shipper and the railroad
company.
"While this reduction, had it been made
on the tonnage Of grain moved during
1894. would have diminished the revenue
of the Southern Pacific Company by about
$3.50, 900, still these rates which have been
published and established by this board
are reasonable and just in my opinion,
and will compensate the carrier for the
services he will be called upon to perform.
at seems to me the height of folly for
the United States Government at the pres
ent time, when there is grave doubt as to
whether its debt will ever be paid by the
Central Pacific Company, to interfere in
this matter, apparently determined that
the shippers of this State shall be taxed by
the Government to pay the debt of the

st. Andrews day is an occasion for the
altering together of Scots the world over,
and in this City the day never passes with
out celebration by the st. Andrew s
Society. Last evening members of the
society, ladies and guests to the number of
nearly 200 met at the Palace Hotel and
celebrated in good Scottish fashion with a
a banquet the day of Scotand's patron
saint. 1t was the thirty-third annual
gathering, and there were present many
who, although they have not trod their
native heath in over third of a century,
and tho it's a far cry to Lochow," are
still as leal in their hearts as ever to the
''land O. cakes.''
The guests met in the Maple room at
about o'clock and from there, preceded
by the clubs piper, veil Lindsay, playing
1.-The Sweet Maid of Glendaruel," marched
to the Marble room, where were the ban
quet-tables.
Andrew Wilkie presided and acted very
gracefully as the postmaster. In front of
him was placed large rams head, with
snuff "mul" filled with the best of
"sneeshin," which was passed around after
the dinner.
The menu was an excellent one, Begin
ming with cookie leeky" soup. When
the time for the royal aggis'' came
Piper Neil Lindsay marched in and up
toward the head of the table, playing
'The Campbells Are Coming" and was
followed by walters bearing the savory
pudding of the Highlands.
When the coffee came on James McNab
carried the society's mascot, the rams
horn "mull, " around the room and offered
snuff to all the guests.
Andrew Wilkie wittily opened his re-
marks before introducing the toasts by
reference to the Scotch whisky that &C
companied the haggis, telling the story
