RAIL WAY SCHEME
Transfer of a Valuable
Franchise Placed on
Record.
PECULIAR TRANSACTION
The Deed of Conveyance Was
Executed in July,
1895.
OUTLOOK FOR CONSTRUCTION.
Swanberg and Westphal Were In
When the Franchise Was
Granted.
OUTLOOK FOR CONSTRUCTION

A deed went on record IN the Recorders
Office yesterday which transfers to the
West Shore Railway Company all the
property, franchises and interests of the
San Francisco and West Shore Railway
Company. 1t appears from the documents
placed on record that the stockholders of
the last named corporation met in July,
1885, and authorized the directors of the
company to make the transfer. The stock
holders attending the meeting owned or
represented COO shares of stock. These
owners orl agents were Louis f. Dunand,
John w. Eisenhath, A. Herman, Fred
Hover, F. Eisenhath, John Lynch, @. NJ.
Lange and K. ]. Millats.
The proceedings of the board of directors
in making the transfer are attested by J..
o. Jephson, who was then secretary of the
company.
From the documents filed it is shown
that the Board of Supervisors granted to
the San Francisco and West Shore Rail-
way Company, on November IA, 1892, a
fifty.year franchise to construct and main
tain double track railway from Potrero
Avenue and Twenty street to the San
Mateo County line. The route traversing
or crossing forty streets from the initial
point to the County line is fully described.
A franchise was also obtained from San
Mateo County permitting the company to
build from the County line to Half Moon
Bay.
Among the original promoters of the
scheme to get the franchise were Henry
w. Westphal, G. 0. Swanberg, ]. o. Jeph-
son, Louis f. Dunand and ]. w. Ellis.
Swanberg and Westphal, who have since
achieved some notoriety In other transac-
tions, did not remain long in the company.
1t is said that they began to throw
''cold water on the project shortly after
they got in and never put in any money
to help the cause.
J. o. Jephson said yesterday that his
own connection with the company ceased
when the franchise was conveyed 10 the
West Shore Company. His name never
appeared, as the deed of transfer executed
in July, 1895, had just been placed on
record. He has the impression that the
West Shore Railway Company, of which
R. S. Thornton is president, is preparing
to build the road.
So far as can be ascertained from the
documents placed on record yesterday the
franchise is the only thing of value which
the San Francisco and West Shore Rail-
way possessed.
not stated. The privilege which the Board
of Supervisors granted is surely valuable
one, as it gives the use of all the lands,
waters, lanes and highways on the route
from Potrero avenue and Twenty-ffth
street to the County line. Among the
streets crossed or traversed are Utah, Yolo,
Colusa, Army, Vermont and the San
Bruno road.
r. S. Thornton, president of the West
Shore Railway Company, is reported to
be a man of capital and energy, who has
enlisted progressive men in the fortunes
of the company.

POLITICAL NOTES.

The Alliance to Leave for Los An
geles Tonight.
OAKLAND, CAL, Aug. 27.-The Repub-
lican Alliance leaves the mole tomorrow
night at o'clock for Los Angeles. A
band will play from 6:30 to and the cars
will be handsomely decorated.
The organization of political clubs
among students at the university has led
to proposals for associations of other
kinds. Many colleges in the East have
good government clubs, and It has been
suggested that one be formed at Berkeley.
Another proposed association of students
is one to carry on campaign for State
appropriations for the university.
There will be rally and meeting of the
Fourth Ward Republican Club in the
Market-street block, Eighth street, on Sat-
urday evening. Everybody is invited 10
attend. Good speakers will address the
meeting.
The attempt to consolidate the two clubs
in this ward has fallen through.

90S Broadway, Aug. q.
A host of friends gathered around the
bier on which lay the remains of Mabel
G. Ballantyne at her late home yesterday
afternoon. The deceased was a very popu-
lar and well-known young lady.
Some time ago Miss Ballantyne gradu-
ated from the Poulson School of Oratory.
and as an elocutionist and dramatic reader
she was very gifted. and her ambition
guaranteed marked future, but two years
ago the symptoms of consumption were
apparent, ana last Monday came the end.
She was % years OF age.
Rev. ]. E. Bushnell, DID,, spoke a few
words of consolation to those that were
bereft ana of approval for the life of her
whose spirit was at rest. Donizetti's s
beautiful ''Rest, Weary Pilgrim was
sung by Mrs. R. r. Case, Miss Ida B.
hussey and Mrs. Blake-Alverson, and the
same trio also rendered "Slumber Soft"
Miss BalIantyne was the daughter of
William and Adeline A. Ballantyne, and
was born In this city. The pallbearers

They will probably recommend tax OF
81 II. Mayor Davies position upon the
levy has been a matter of interest and
many questions have been asked about it,
but so far he has openly made no sign TO
show whether he will again stand for a
dollar rate. 1t is reported, however, that
Mayor Davie is disposed TO favor provi-
sion in the levy for improvements if the
objects are such as he agrees to and the
destination of the money is specifically set
forth in the ordinance.
The TwombIy Estate.
OAKLAND, CAL, Aug. 2S.-The pro-
ceedings in the Probate Court regarding
the estate of the late Martha A. TWombly
were brought before the public to-day by
the publishing of some correspondence,
but as the writer could not be found and
is not in any directory, it is thought the
purpose of it is merely to create bias.

OAKLAND, CAL, Aug. 27.-The Volun-
teers Will have a special jubilee tonight at
their armory, 865 Broadway. Coffee, tea
and chocolate with cake will be served at

fraying opening expenses of Oakland

Brief News Items.
ALAMEDA, CAL, Aug. 27.-As drawing
has become one of the neeessaries in the
State University, this new departure will
require the employment of a special
teacher of drawing in the High School.
Professor Ardle of the State University
addressed the Board of Education on the
matter last night.

DR.. ]. r. Mclean, Health Officer, will be
held on Sunday morning in the Park
street NJ. E. Church, of which denomlna-
tion deceased had been member for fifty
years.
Fire Chief Krauth denies the rumor that
there is desire to change the personnel OF
the members of the Fire Department by
making it a paid department. He states
that If the plan of reorganization Is
adopted the volunteer members will have
the preference in every case, so that they
may complete their terms of five years,
