There was an interesting and enthusi-
astic meeting of the Ashbury Heights and
Stanyan-street Improvement Club held
last evening at the residence of f. w. NJ.
lange, at 137 Carl street. 1t was, perhaps,
fortunate that no representative of the
Southern Pacific Company streetcar COM
bine was present, for many decidedly un-
pleasant things were said of that corpora
ton.
At the previous meeting committee
was appointed to visit Colonel Crocker and
communicate to him grievance the peo-
pie of the district south OF the park have
against that branch of the Southern Pa
cifc's street railway system known as the
Metropolitan Electric Railway. The
knowledge that this committee would
make report drew together large num-
Der of the prominent residents of the dis
trict.
When the report was presented it was
decided to raise the necessary funds to
fight the railroad and compel it to either
live up to the terms of its contract or for
felt its franchise. The report made by the
committee was that it had called upon
Colonel Crocker and informed him that
the change in the running of the cars on
the Metropolitan electric line from q
dfteen-minute service to a half-hour serv-
fee during the day was working a great
hardship and annoyance upon the inhabi-
tants of the district. The people were also

DAVIS OCTOBER RECORD
What the City's Meat Inspector Has
Done During the Month just
Ended.

The report of Meat Inspector Ben Davis
for the month OF October was filed with the
Board OF Health yesterday. 1t shows the
following seizures: Cows 13H, calves 121,
beef 1850 pounds.
In spite of this excellent showing only
two or three arrests followed. Of the meat
condemned as unfit for use Butchertown
furnished twenty-eight seizures divided as
follows: Hogs II, sheep %, calves and
cows IA. 1t is claimed by Mr.. Davis as a
reason for so few arrests that the law was
defective. 1t made no provision, he said,
for dealers doing a commission business,
hence it was an easy matter for them to
claim that the article seized was merely a
consignment. In Butchertown not sin
gle arrest was made during the month.
Inspector Davis arrested a Chinaman on
Sixth street yesterday on charge of hav-
ing diseased meat in his possession. Davis
claimed that the half hog, for such was the
article seized, died from natural causes and
was therefore unfit for food AS the ami
NAL came from one of the largest estab-
lishments in South San Francisco it is
probable that the inspector will find a
lively fight on his hands when the case
comes up for trial.

STANFORD HEIRS TAXED,
Will Be Asked to Pay $4,000
on the Collateral In
heritanceS.
Citation Issued Directing Them to
Appear in Court With the
Money.

The collateral-inheritance tax law will
get a fair trial in this State, for it is being
applied on all sides, and is rapidly bring
ing money into the Golfers of the County
Clerk. The law was approved March %,
1893, but it is only recently that it has been
put in practice to any extent. One of the
first things County Clerk Curry did upon
taking office was to arrange for the levy
ing Of this tax, and since he has been in
office over $4,000 has been turned in under
the law creating the tax. There is now
about 100000 in sight, and the County
Clerk is going after it with an energy that
promises to land it IN the treasury. The
last estate to be taxed is that of Leland
Stanford, and his collateral heirs will be
asked to pay $150,000.
The law requires that all collateral in
heritances shall pay tax of per cent
In California the collateral heirs under
this statute include all heirs who are not
of the immediate family of the deceased
There is some dispute as to whether the
tax is due upon a distribution of the es-
tate, or before such distribution, but in
any event 1t makes the executors person
ally liable in case of non-payment.
Similar laws have been created in some
OF the Eastern States, and in each one the
tax has stood the test of the courts. 1t will
probably once more be tested out here,
( however. In fact, the attorneys for the
Wllmerd1ng estate are now preparing Just
such a suit. The collateral heirs of that es-
tate have paid total tax of about $l3, 900,
but it was paid under protest and there
will be a suit brought by the heirs to have
the money returned. This will bring the
validity OF the law directly in question.
There is a man in the County Clerk s
office whose special business it is to hunt
UP estates to which there are collateral
heirs and to inform the Treasurer of them.
Citations are then issued directing the
heirs in ques ion to appear and pay, or
to show cause why they should not.
The Stanford collateral heirs are Herbert
G. Nash, Ariel Lathrop, Gertie Stanford
and the Leland Stanford Jr. University.
They are cited to appear on November 26 in
Judge Coffey's court.
In an interview yesterday with Mount
ford S. Wilson of the law firm of Wilson &
Wilson, who represent the Stanford estate,
he stated that no papers had yet been
served on them. He added that he did not
see how the heirs can be compelled to pay
the $150,000 claimed as the amount of the
tax on collateral inheritances when if the
Government should WIN its suit, these
legatees would get small proportion only
of their legacies.
The position that the attorneys for the
estate will take in the matter will proba-
bly, be to refuse the payment of the tax
until the pending suit for $15, 900 .OOO
brought by the United States against the
Stanford estate, is decided by the United
States Supreme Court.

of this society as fully and fairly as any mem,
Der whose name has never been stricken from
the roll for non-payment Of dues
Mr.. Farwell for his resolution began his
remarks by calling the society's attention
to the objects of the Lick and other trusts
bequeathed to the Pioneers organization.
Relief for old members of the society was
that object, and none could doubt it. Why
bar out from immediate relief any delin-
quent members who return by putting in
force the clause which provides for the five
years membership after reinstatement? -?
The speaker gave figures proving that only
small percentage of those that had been
dropped from the rolls could ever be OBJ
iects of relief, in refutation of the plea that
such course would swamp the finances of
the society.
"To keep out the old men who had been
unable to pay their dues and keep up with
the procession" he said. twas uncharita-
bic, unfraternal and Infamous"
The resolution was earnestly opposed by
Judge Niles Searls, who argued that, as it
only took the payment of the insignificant
sum of $6 for reinstatement, many former
members would take advantage of the new
rule.
The resolution was lost, only two or
three voting in its favor.

FREIGHT RATES TO UTAH,
Manager Curtis Expects a Re.
duction From the South.
ern Pacific.
The Salt Lake Jobber Afraid of Sar
Francisco Merchants Invading
His Territory.

Manager w. B. Curtis of the Traffic AS
soclation has returned from Salt Lake
City, where he was endeavoring to per-
suade the Utah jobbers that a low freight
rate between San Francisco and Salt Lake
would be of benefit to them. Assistant
General Freight Agent William Sproule of
the Southern Pacific, who was performing
the same kind of missionary work there,
has not yet returned, but is expected to re-
turn about the end Of the week.
Messrs. Curtis and Sproule met with the
merchants of that city and the representa-
tives of the various railroads at the Knuts-
ford Hotel on October %, and the confer
ence lasted until the 30th ult. The propo-
sition they both contended for, SAYS Mr..
Curtis, was a reduction on basis of 70 per
cent of the rate from the Missouri River.
The jobbers of this city really want a 67
per cent reduction.
I'VE arrived at no satisfactory conclu-
sion," said Mr.. Curtis Yesterday, "but we
look for the speedy issuance by the South
ern Pacific of a reduced rate from this City
to Ogden nevertheless, and perhaps the
Salt Lake City merchants will see their
way clear to rally to our movement in
time.

fects to regulate rates IN it's own territory.
that is, all west of the Missouri River. Ali
these systems and also the Union Pacific
and the Rio Grande Western were opposed
to any reduction of freight rates between
San Francisco and Salt Lake.
"Our present freight rates to Utah are on
the old basis of 851a per cent of the rate to
Salt Lake from Omaha. We endeavored
to persuade the Utah jobbers that a low
rate between our cities will help to drive
out the Chicago jobber, and, using the rate
from Kansas City as an example, tried to
show how we on basis of 20 per cent of
such rate would put the Chicago jobber
at disadvantage. OF course It was to the
interest of the Missouri Association
roads to oppose it, as they want all the
traffic from the East to Utah they can get.
but we were ather surprised at the posi-
tion taken by the Utah people.
The Utah jobber seems to fear that such
reduction would simply bring the San
Francisco jobber into his territory. The
fact is Chicago has got all their territory
as it is, and competition between San
Francisco and Chicago would greatly ben
et1t the Salt Lake people. However, as

THE PIONEERS MEETING
A Resolution to Grant hmm ediate Bene-

Members Defeated

AT the regular meeting of the Society of
Pioneers last night in Pioneer Hall, Charles
NJ. Plum, Edwin B. Mastick, George
Schonewald and Henry Matthews, sur
viving members of the Lick trust, were
admitted to honorary membership by a
unanimous vote.
The real business of the evening came
when the resolution offered by Hon. w. B.
Farwell at the meeting of October came
up for action. 1t was upon granting imme-
dlate relief to reinstated delinquent men,
bers and moving an amendment to the by
laws for that purpose. The resolution was
as follows:
WHEREAS, Section of the bylaws of this
society, as amended on the 9th day of May,
1898, provides that whenever q member who
by the board OF directors for non-payment OF
dues shall pay into the treasury the amount
OF said delinquent dues he shall by that act be
restored to membership" land all members
dropped from the roll OF membership Cor nom
payment of dues and for no other cause shall
by complying with the foregoing be restored
to member bership" and whereas, in the same
section OF the bylaws, after the words quoted
and as the closing paragraph OF said section,
occur the following words
"On and after the adoption of this amend
ment no person who shall be reinstated men,
Der OF this society shall be paid any amount
from the reIlef fund until he shall have been a
member in good standing for a period OF five
years." now, therefore, 1t is hereby
Resolued THAT all members who have here
tofore been suspended or dropped from
the roll OF membership for non-payment
OF dues and for no other cause" shall by
paying such delinquent dues be restored
to membership, and it is the sense and wish
of this society that if any member so restored
to membership shall have been "a member in

say, we look for a reduction by the South
ern Pacific to Ogden. 1t is not a member
of the Trans-Missouri Association"
"Such reduction as you expect from
the Southern Pacific will help to build up
Ogden at the expense of Salt Lake City,

reply.
General Freight Agent Smurr of the

souri, River rate-might be looked for soon
from the Southern Pacific. He answered
that he could not say until Mr.. Sproule re-

and his tone and manner indicated that he
meant it,
