The Police Commissioners have not decided
just when the proposed "shakeup' Of the force
is going to take place, but they admit that il
has been fully decided upon. Apparently one
object OF the extensive changes contemplated is
TO checkmate the scheme for raising large fund
for the purpose Of defeating legislation that will
enable the Commissioners to reorganlze the force
from top to bottom The rumors that such a
fund was being collected have been In circulation

 Heretofore the Federal government has not had the exclusive right to col lect tariff taxe 1r internal revenues. As result, both the Federal govern ment and the states have their sepa- rate laws on the same subject. Jeal- ousies between States have led some of them to enact tariff laws discrimin- ating against neighborlng States.
 President Diaz spoke strongly for a reform. and d comprehensive revision of the Constitution has been presented accordingly. The first articles of the Constitution are changed so as to in- clude d prohibition against the coin age of money or the issuance of paper bills or stamps by the states. Tariii between the states are prohibited by several strong pro- visions. Art. l24 of the Constitution is changed so as to give the Federal government the exclusive right to hinder or prohibit the transportation of goods, foreign or domestic, brought into Mexico or into state. Byasup- elemental section Of law is made to take effect one year from July l next. Whether the law embodying changes has passed it's final stages is not clear from the information received here, although the legislation appears to be complete.

Fatal Accident at cananea.

At Cananea on June 4th a miner named E. R. Thompson was killed by the explosion of blast. He was work ingon the night shift taking out ore in an open cut. The Mexican who was working with him was sick and did not go on the shift, so Thompson went alone. About ? a. m. two blasts were fired and heard in the camp, and an other shot was heard about three quarters of an hour later. In the morning Thompson was found by the men at charge of shift. He had been dead some time. His chest was crushed in and death must have been Instantaneous.
 The accident occurred at the Ele- nita camp. The remains were buried in the canon near the Old Saw mill camp Dext to the grave of Col k. F. Morton.

Gavin McNab looked at Braunhart; then
Sammy, with an attitude of introspection-
looking at himself, SO to speak-arose and
introduced the following resolution:
Resolved, That this committee hereby invites
the Honorable A. A. Watkins, chairman of the
General Committee of the Democratic party OF
San Francisco, to appoint twenty-five members
OF said committee, including himself, one
from every Assembly District and seven at
large, TO confer with and become part of this
committee.
He did not even trust the secretary or
the chairman to read it, but read it him
self, to the evident satisfaction of Gavin
McNab.
George T. Marye seconded the resolution
with appropriate alacrity, and the COM
mittee adopted the same without hesita-
ton as soon as the chairman stated the
question.
The committee then adjourned, with the
agreement that another meeting be called
not later than next week.
Colonel Sullivan presided with remark
able impartiality throughout. He even
put the negative of each proposition to
the committee, when nothing but exces-
sive courtesy seemed to suggest it.
Everything was carried out according to
the programme which THE CALL published
yesterday morning.
The significance of the resolution
adopted is that A. A. Watkins will appoint

THE FEE BILL NOT VALID,
Supreme Court Decision
Against the County Gov
ernment Act of 1891.
\ sTAN1sLAUs TEST CASE.
County Clerk Lewis Demand for
Fees According to That Law
Defeated.

The Supreme Court has declared un-
constitutional section 1876 of the county
government act of 1891 by reversing iudg-
ment in the case of George S. Bloss against
J. A. Lewis, clerk of the Superior Court OF
Stanislaus County.
Bloss sued for writ of mandate to COM
pei the clerk to accept a smaller fee than
that act provided for. He was one of the
executors of the estate of John w.
Mitchell, who died in November, 1898,
and left property in MADEIRA, Merced and
Fresno counties valued at 81, 1864, 1867 65.
Lewis demurred that there was not suffi-
cient ground for the action by Bloss and
the demurrer was sustained.
The executors rendered to the clerk $25
as payment for fling the inventory, but
the clerk refused to accept that fee or to
file the inventory. The clerk claimed the
fees prescribed by law, of $40 with 81 for
each additional $1,000, and in that way the
tees would amount to $1358.
The disputed section of the county
government act is held to be class legisla-
ton, and in the opinion Justice Van
Fleet says:
What is the difference IN the condition of the
people or their property in the county of STAN
1siaus from that of the people or property OF
otner counties, which requires or justifies a
law compelling estates of deceased persons in
that county to pay more for filing paper in
the Office OF the clerk of the Superior Court
than is required 10 be paid by such estates for
the same service in any other county in the
State?
The obvious reason for classifying counties
for the purpose of regulating the com pensation
OF ofhcers according to service is that much
more official service is required in some
counties than in others, the purpose of the
classification being to effect equality of COM
pensation for like services of county officers
throughout the State, whereas the effect of the
law in question is diversity and inequality of
official fees for like services without affecting
the compensation of officers in any way.
The Superior Court is instructed to over
rule the Lewis demurrer.

The nomination was promptly seconded
and Colonel Sullivan elected without oppo-
sitlon. He took the chair, acknowledged
the compliment and called for the election
of temporary secretary. John f. Nc
Govern was Immediately elected for this
place.
Without delay Mr.. Braunhart moved
that the chairman of the last municipal
convention Mr.. Deuprey) be authorized to

committee. Without murmer of dissent
the motion was carried.
AT this point in the proceedings Mr..
Tobin arose and suggested that the COM

was broken by the observation of the
chairman that no one had seconded the
proposition. Then Tobin subsidized grace

Stanley has been roaming all over Califor-
MIA, and, disguised with an assumed name,
he has been encountering that democratic
freedom which is the birthright of every
American citizen and English tourist.
While in the interior of the State he did
not subscribe for any of the papers, and SO
he kept his name out of print.
He was in Lake County for a week. and
nobody there knew it. One of the persons
who met and entertained him unawares
was Senator John Fay of this City. sena-
tor ray returned on Tuesday from
months vacation at Anderson Springs,
where the explorer stayed for several days.
The main objects of interest were
pointed out to the newcomer by the
San Francisco Senator, but there
was no suspicion at that time of
the distinguished travellers identity.
romantic beauty of Lake County; and
though the statement nSay have been an
exaggeration, he declared that some Of the
scenery was as wild as any he had ever
seen.
One Of the Californians that most inter-
ested the visitor was the owner of little
ranch about four miles from Anderson
Springs. The man had lived there since
the country was settled, and he has seen
the gradual encroachments on his terri
tory, though his nearest neighbor is yet
three miles away.
This man wants to sell out" said the
mountain girl, who was acting as guide to
one OF the excursions
Don't ranch pay here2" asked the
quiet stranger.
"Oh, yes; it pays, but he says he wants
freer air."
If Stanley ever goes to Africa again he
will probably take that man.
From Lake County Stanley went through
the Napa Valley. Then he came to San
Francisco, and now he is supposed to be
somewhere in Southern California.
He was at Oakland a day or two, and
there he found it hard to conceal his
identity. He did not even visit the Geo.
graphical Society while in this City.
Here he used the name of Smith, know
ing that reporters would not like to
Interview anybody of that name.
Now he is lost in the interior of the
State again, and it will take another
Stanley or second DIR. Livingston to find
him
