so GROVER CLEVELAND, according to
his letter, loves not sound money less

What's the matter with bearing aloft

appealing for Republican votes to elect
him for he benent he would be to the

AS TO "JdNITING."

Just what services are understood by
the trade, profession or occupation of
"janiting" have, we believe, never been
specified.
The Central Labor Union of New
York city, however, proposes to have
them defined, IL possible. and limited, IL
practicable.
II appears that janitor OF one of New
YorK's public schools complained to the
c. L. L. that " though he is nired as a
] nitor, he has to set glass and putty
ana mend windows 10 they are broken.
II thore Is any carpentoring to be done
he has to do IL, and sae same IL anything
goes wrong with ths plumbing" And
he maintains tnst man who is employed
Os jenitor in the pubic schools Is not
ex. ectSi to be glazior, a plumber, a
steam otter, = carpenter and a jack of ali
trader. but for such work men OF the ac-
credited trades should bo employed.
This is a quostien. just what Is he tx
pocted TO do? Just what is meant when
a man Z. engaged to "ipnit" or 90 "jan-

upon two grounds. The first of these is
that the will is invalid and hence the
trust must be. This contention will be
maintained upon the same grounds as was
the San Jose action-unsound mind and
undue influence. In the determination of
this issue the sensational testimony i'd
duced at the San Jose trial will be gone
over with a few added details promised.
One OF the striking features of the former
trial was the part played in it by the
colored woman who claimed her son was
heir to a child's share of Barron's mil
lions. This character was taken advantage
Of by the plaintiff. who claimed that the
threats and prosecutions of this woman
constituted one of the chief causes of his
fathers disturbed reason.
The second ground of attack is more
technical. 1t is directed at the trust itself
and is based upon leading California
case, known as the Walkerley case. 1t de-
ponds for its force upon the strict tech
nical meaning of the words of the trust
clause, and briefly is that the trust Is. in
valid because its operation might possibly,
by its terms extend over the period Of =
life or lives in being. 1t is a rule of law
that trusts cannot be created to extend in
definitely. in California the limit is ga
life or lives in being" By the terms of
the trust it is claimed its operation might
extend to such children of Eva Rose Bar
ron yet unborn at the time OF the making
of the will. This, according to the Walk
erley case, constitutes a violation OF the
rule of peTpetuity.
The property affected by the suit is

TROTTING AGAIN TO-DAY.
A Stake Event for Three-Year'
Odds the Feature of
the Card.
Ing1eside Track in Better Condition
w. Wood and Waldo J to
Meet on Saturday.

The directors OF the Pacific Coast Trot-
ting-horse Breeders Association held a
meeting yesterday at the office of Director
Burke, but business of a private nature
only was transacted.
This will be the second day of the as
sociation's summer meeting at Ingleside
track and two splendid events, the 2:40
pace, with a fine field of starters, and a
stake for three-year-old trotters, are down
for decision. Secretary F. w. Kelley
stated yesterday that all of the loose dirt
on the surface of the course has been
scraped off and better time can be looked
for to-day.
An attraction that is bound to draw a
great crowd has been arranged for the
Fourth of July, the closing day of the
meet. 1t is no less than a contest, best
three in five heats, between the crack free
for-aIers of the pacing brigade, w. Wood
(2:07), and Waldo (2:08) the gray ghost
from San Luis Obispo.
A special purse of $1,000 will be hung up
for them. Two enthusiastic horsemen en-
gagged in the butchering business in Ala
media are also in doubt as to the relative
merits of their respective world beaters,
and the public will have an opportunity
of seeing their caliber tested before the
meeting is over.
Starter w. P. McNair proved a reveIa-
tion to patrons of the running turf and
the work of the man from Wichita has
come in for much praise on all sides. Mr..
McNair considers the innovation of the
Pacific Coast Association in compelling
drivers to wear jacket and cap of pro-
nounced color a splendid one and thinks
it should be enforced on all tracks.

But the Alcazar Manager Paid sharkey
in Full.
A crowd gathered about the doors of
Growers Alcazar Theater last evening. In
the assemblage were several actors, who
were endeavoring to learn the cause of
the doors being closed and locked with a
chain.
On inquiry it developed that the theater
had closed its doors the night before after
the play was over and the actors had dis
persed for the evening. The cause was
given as lack of funds wherewith to meet
current expenses.
Superintendent WalIenrod, who has the
rental of the Alcazar building, said that
Manager Grover had come to him the
evening before and told him the theater
had closed up and that he would come to
him to-day and square the financial part
of the affair.
Manager Grover said he had closed up
at the beginning OF the week many times
before.

RIGHTS OF SEAL TIERS
Schooners Seized in 1891 Ordered
Released by the Court of
Appeals.
Seals May Be Caught at Certain
Seasons if Found Beyond the
Three-Mile Limit.

judges McKenna, Gilbert and Hawley,
United States Court of Appeals, handed
down an important decision yesterday in
the case of the schooner La Ninfa, seized
in Alaskan waters in 1891.
This is an appeal in admiralty from a
decree of the District Court of Alaska, +"
said Judge Hawley in delivering the opin-
ion of the court, "forfeiting the schooner
La Nina upon the grounds that she had
been unlawfully engaged in killing seals
in the waters of Alaskan territory.
sit appears that on April 1, 1891, she
sailed from San Francisco, having been
previously fitted out here. On July 6 she
passed into Bering sea, and three days
later sent out her boats bringing in four
teen skins. On the following day the
United States ship Thetis notified the cap
tain of the schooner that the sea was
closed from sealing Ensign Dodd of the
Thetis boarded the sealer thirty miles
off st. Paul's Island and warned him to
cease operations. Captain Worth of the
schooner informed the ensign that he was
fitted out for whaling and asked permits
sion to continue on that line. He was told
that if he remained it would be at his own
risk of being seized. The schooner, how
ever, remained in the waters and on July
IA was seized by the revenue cutter Cor
She had on board nineteen skins, of which
number Captain Worth said five had been
killed in the sea.
"From these facts the question arises"
said the court, whether Boring Sea at a
distance of more than one league from the
American shore is Alaskan territory, or in
the waters thereof, or within the domin-
ion of the United States in the waters of
Boring Sea-
The court then went into lengthy re-
view of the modus ylvendi which finally
resulted in the Board of Arbitration, in
session at Paris, agreeing that ''the two
countries had rights in common to kill
seals outside the three-mi limit" Con-
gress, TO give effect to this decision, passed
a new sealing act April 4, 1894, covering
the points agreed on by the arbitrators.
As it was shown that the seals were taken
ten miles from shore the decision of the
District Court was reversed and the
schooner ordered released.
A reversal in the case of the schooner
Alexander, seized at the same time, was
also ordered.
