called the attention of the Grand Jury to
the peculiar manner in which the Sunny
side franchise was granted to the Market
street Railway Company was denied.
President Dohrmann called the attention
of the board to the excessive manner in
whIchthe fences of the leading streets of
the City are at present posted with large
and, in some cases. Objectionable bills. A
resolution was adopted by the board ex-
pressing disapproval of this display of adj
vertising on fences and particularly those
of an Objectionable nature. The matter
was referred to the committee on trades
and finance for further investigation of the
subject.
Directors Baldwin, Doane and Kohlberg
and the president were appointed to call
upon General Manager Vining of the Mar
ket-street Railway Company with a view
of securing proper transfers throughout
the CITY.

Says the Sausalito News:
The schooner Harry, of which Piper-Aden-
Goodall Company are owners and Captain Mel
son the skipper, came off the ways of Lanterns
shiDyard snort time since.
In an interview with Captain Goodall of the
above-named firm News representative was
informed that the captain has been urging
upon his firm the advisability of ordering ali
work on their vessels done on the Sausalito
ways.
The main objection to standing contract of
this kind lies in the tact that the ways, as at
present constituted, are too narrow fol- some of
the vessels.
Captain Fred Smith of the Solano. a veteran
captain in connection with Piper-Aden- 6 od-
all Company, was in Sausalito with the inten-
ton OF bringing the Solano to our shores for
the usual repairs, but the width of the ways
was not sufficient to enable him to dock his
vessel at this place.
The Pacific Mail Company's steamer San
Jose arrived from Panama and way ports
yesterdays She brought up a dozen pas
sengers in the cabin and twenty-six in the
steerage. The news from Central America
was very meager. The wharf at Acapulco
was very much damaged during the storm
and a new one will have to be built. Gen
eral EZeta and his private secretary were
still in the town, and when the threatened
descent on San Salvador was to take place
no one seemed TO know ana nobody cared.
The United States steamer General Nc
Dowell and the California Navigation and
improvement Company's steamer Leader
were nearly in collision yesterday after
noon. The Leader was backing out on her
way to Stockton ana the Mcdowell was

A TALE OF THE SEA THAT RIVALS
CLARK RUSSELL'S BEST
PRODUCTION.
THE MATE WASHED OVERHEARD
CAPTAIN ROBERTSON COMMITTED
SUICIDE WITH CARBOLIc
ACID.

The British ship Aberfoyle arrived in
port last night after one of the most re-
markable voyages on record.
The Aberfoyle sailed from Fredericks-
stad, Norway, for Australia January 25
last. Captain George Robertson was in
command, but as it was impossible to
secure men with certificates he was obliged
to venture out with only one licensed Off
Ger. This was Percy Norton, who was
shipped as first mate. For few DAYS all
went well, but soon the crew became un-
ruIy and at one time it looked as though
there would be mutiny. Captain Rob-
ertson was drunk and on the first mate de-
volved all the responsibility. He mastered
the men and came to an understanding
with them. The sailors got the best Of the
bargain, but he could do nothing. He was
between the devil and the deep sea. There

Development and the tendency of the CITY

In answer to 4 question he said he be-

Professor Moses will lecture at the South
Park Settlement every Friday evening on

referring to a recent statement in a
morning paper that the Settlement Asso-
citation is practically at an end, V. l..
O'Brien, one of the members, said that
statement was tissue of misrepresenta-
tions and Measurements. Several of the
resident members were out of the City
during the summer vacation. This fact
was the sole basis for the story Mr..
O'Brlen said there had been no falling off
in membership; that the sessions of the
Girls Club. Boys Club, Little Helpers
and mothers meetings continued to be
held regularly, and that the interest was
undated.

WAR ON THE POSTERS.
Important Subjects and Reforms Dis
cussed by the Merchants
AssociatIop.


A special meeting of the board of direc-
tors of the Merchants Association was
held on Thursday evening and several
important subjects were discussed. Chief
Engineer Sullivan of the Fire Department
addressed the board upon the present con-
dition of the Fire Department of this City
and the urgent necessity for more hydrants
and larger mains. He also submitted data
showing the number of hydrants and other
particulars existing in the fire departments
of the large cities of the United States
Consulting Engineer Mccullough read
his special report upon the paving exhibit
at the recent Mechanics Exposition. It
treated of the various exhibits that were
then made and the advantages that would
be derived from full information of the
subject of paving the streets with the best
substances obtalnable in this State. This
report will be further considered at the
quarterly meeting of the association to be
held next month.
Some time ago the secretary, J. Richard
Freud was instructed to prepare synop-
sis of the important features of the pro-
posed new City charter. He submitted his
work for the consideration of the directors.
After discussion or the main provisions
embodied in the charter, especially regard
ing officials who will be appointed and
elected under its provisions, it was de-
cided to have 5000 printed copies of this
synopsis published and distributed among
the members of the, association, as we'll as
the leading citizens and taxpayers of the
City. 1t is very probable that before
the election Noyem Der, 1896 a larger
edition of this synopsis will be published
and distributed generally among the citi-
zens of San Francisco.
1t was decided that at the next meeting
the future work of the association will be
discussed

fessor Moses at South Park
Scttlem emit.

Professor Bernard Moses of the State
University delivered the second of a course
of free lectures on "City Life and Labor
at the residence of the South Park Settle
ment last evening.
He described the various phases and
steps OF civilization, showing that the first
in the process of development is the noma-
dc; next in the scale that by which sus-
tenance is obtained through hunting and
fishing; afterward the pastoral or cattle
raising era in development, which, by it's
nature, tends to social inequality; then
tilling the soil, which occupation, if not
interfered with by governmental powers,
promoted equality, and finally manu-
featuring and trade. which are the condi-
tions which foster city life

TO MEET HIS SONS BODY,
John w. Mackay's Melancholy Errand
to New York City.

w I>oW IoIh OlCy.
John w. Mackay left this City last even
ing upon melancholy errand. He started
East to New York to meet the remains of
his son, ]. w. Mackay Jr., who died in
Paris about week ago. Mrs. Mackav and
the second son, Clarence, will come over
on the same boat with the body, and it is
probable that the whole family will come
with it to this City, where it will be buried.
The funeral services were held in Paris
last Tuesday and at once the body was
placed on the steamer to come as far as
New York at least, for it has not vet been
definitely decided where the grave will be !:
that will only be settled when Mr.. and
Mrs. Mackay meet in New York. 1t is
pretty certain, however, that the BODY of
the young man will find its final resting
place here, for it was in this CITY that
young Mackay was born. and he expressed
a wish to be buried here when he died.

an account of that part of Egypt in
which he lately carried ont British

included that portion Of Egypt through
which tho route of tho exodus was said
To have lain. In describing the present
state of the land he pointed out that
the conformation of the country had
somewhat altered since that period,
$500 years ago, but what especially
came under his notice was tho action of

his survey work on the borders of Lake

wind actually carried tho waters Of the
lake beyond the horizon, leaving all

direction Of the American Society 0f

idea is to enlist all Pedestrians into AN

cont is the wise divine who grasped the
idea that made this sort Of religious in
struction possible. He, i'll coiS,non with
many others, found the youngsters out
stripping the old folks i'll knowledge Of
the Bible and theology, and if the older
persons were to be kept within the fold
it was necessary for the church to in
crease their store of knowledge. Hence

years ago.
