Mr.. Connolly (Rep) of Illinois, on
the other hand intimated that there
was an attempt to smother the results
of those tests in the various breeds Of
cattle which were afraid to enter the
competition.
The chair sustained the point OF
order and the provision was ruled out.
The amendments to the act of 1881
for the inspection of live cattle, hogs,
carcaSSeS and products thereof which
had been incorporated in the bill, were
stricken out on motion of Mr.. Baker
Rep0 of New Hampshire. The
amendments refused clearance to YES
upon inspection, and provided for the
sheep and swine found free of dis
ease and made counterfeiting of such
stamps punishable by fine Of 81, 600
and Imprisonment not exceeding one
year. The secretary of agriculture
was authorized by one amendment
stricken out to make regulations to
prevent the transportation of con-
demned carcasses or meats from one
state to another or to foreign coun-
tries. An amendment to print 10000
copies of the report of 1892 on diseases
of cattle, was ruled out. The bill as
amended was passed.
Mr.. Lacey then called up the bill to
extend for five years the time for
bringing suits to vacate and annu1 pat
ents to public lands under railroad
grants. The bill extends the time five
years.
Without action on the bill the house
at o'clock adjourned.

DEPEW is BRIEF.
DR. Depew discussed the question in
a brief speech, referring to the Jay
treaty of over hundred years ago,
which provided that disputes should
be settled by arbitration, but which
did not prevent the war of 1872. He
also spoke Of the benefits of the Ge-
neva treaty under the late President
Grant, and referred to the many ques-
tons that have been settled by arbi-
tration since 1872.
He thought that arbitration embrac-
ing all the nations of Europe was i'm
possible at this time, but Sne claimed
that between Great Britain and the
United States it was not so.

LIGHTS TO Be SHUT OFF
Gas Inspector Newman Reports
on Many Useless
Lamps.
The City Will Save Several Thousand
Dollars Year by the
Change.

If the recommendation of Chris New
man, the municipal gas inspector, is
adopted by the Board of Supervisors the
City will save from $4,000 to SIS, 600 on it's
gas bills within the next two years and
16o useless gas lamps that have been burn
ing for years past will be dispensed with.
Some time ago the board passed reso-
luton instructing the gas inspector to
look into the matter of gas consumption
and report instances where lamps were
burning in proximity to electric
lights, the idea being to dispense with
those that were not really needed. In
spector Newman has made thorough
investigation of the matter and the re-
suits of his labors were EN- bodied in a re-
port rendered to the board yesterday.
He stated in his com mmunication that
from 150 to 100 gas lamps could be shut off
without material damage, the electric
lights in the different neighborhoods being
amply sufficient to give the necessary
light. In a very few instances the gas
lamps were $50 to 175 feet from the electric
lights, the large majority being within
100 feet. The districts most affected are
those furthest removed from the center
OF population, and the inspector states
that he does not think that the service
will be the least bit the loser.
Each one OF these lights costs the City
12% cents per night, and the saving, in
case the report is accepted, will go far to
exc out the street light fund for the next
two wears.

NO LONGER A CAPTAIN.
Downing of the St Paul Loses
His License as Master
and Pilot.
Supervising Inspector Birmingham
Gives Some Good Advice to
Other Captains.

Captain Downing of the wrecked steamer
St. Paul is without legal license or title.
This was decided in an opinion handed
down by the Supervising Inspector oi
HulIs and Boilers yesterday.
After reviewing the testimony OF Cap
tain Downing relative to the course and
speed of the vessel Captain Birmingham
says:
at was still foggy, but he thought be
could see long way. The ship was all
the time going at full speed, and, without
at any time getting cast of his lead,
she took the rocks and became wreck at
lilo P. N. The testimony of Captain
Downing as 10 the course steered Is largely
corro oborated by his third officer, J. J.
Coleman, who had charge of the deck
watch from P. N. up TO the time the ship
took the rocks.
The court at this point reviews at length
the testimony of Quartermaster Wilson
and then comments rather severely on the
statement of the master:
The court is of the opinion that the st. Paul
encountered a current between Point Sur and
Point Cypress, which retarded her speed by the
land, possibly mile and q half between those
points; in no other way can her final position
be accounted for, judging from the course tes-
tihed 10 as having been Steered at 10 80 P. N.
She must have passed dangerously close TO
Cypress Rock thirteen minutes before.

lady.

A divorce was granted to James J..
Walsh from his wife, Minnie B. Walsh,
yesterday by Judge Hunt. The couple
were married only last October. The
cause of complaint was extreme cruelty.
The plaintiff is a young draughtsman,
He testified that his wife complained that
he was too studious and that he did not
take her out enough; that she neglected
their home and that he frequently went
out 10 LOOK for and found her in sa-
looms; that he would take her home
and urge her to do better; that she would
admit that he was good husband to her,
but that she found it tiresome at home,
with him studying all the time. He ex-
planned that it was for her benefit as well
as his own that he desired to advance him
self, but the explanation did not have any
effect; she grew more and more neglect
full.
Andrew Brill was granted a divorce
yesterday from his wife, Effie. The cause
was simple case of desertion. The
minor child was given into the custody of
the plaintiff. The case was beay Judge
Murphy.
John +. Wood, mechanic living on
Clara street, filed an answer and cross
complaint to petition for divorce entered
by his wife Lillian. The wife had ac-
cused the husband of cruelty. Wood de-
nies this, and in his complaint says he
lived happily with his wife until few
months ago, when Joseph Mnrdock was
taken into the house as lodger. They
were then living at Vallejo, where Muir
dock still resides. He found letter adj
dressed to his wife from Murdock, and
this started the trouble. They then
moved to this City.
Since then his wife has more than once
LETT him; declaring she was going to stop
over night with certain lady friend. He
learned on each of these occasions, by
means OF the telephone, that Murdoch was
in San francisco. Also he learned that
his wife did not stop with her lady friend
on either occasion. On one occasion she
stayed away from home several days and
during her absence he met Murdoch on
Grant avenue and they quarreled. He
also alleges that on one occasion he saw
his wife entering lodging-house on How
ard street in company with man named
Barlow. He followed and took her home.
He makes no direct allegation that his
wife has been unfaithful.
The San Francisco call., 1896-08-26

Captain Downing does not seem to have given
that matter proper attention, nor dld ne seem
to bear in mind the disaster that pefell the
Columbia about three weeks before and only
about forty miles away, but ove.-eonfdent OF
his position as he kept on at full speed in
a fog without getting a cast of his load, which
would surely have warned him of the danger
he was rushing upon and saved his ship.
What was the result? Another ship piled
upon the rocks, from which, fortunately for
the safety of the lives on board. she did not
slip into deep water.
The court finds that the St. Paul was valued
at about 500, 1000, and her cargo at 1000;
that her loss was occasioned by the negligence
and unskillfulness of her licensed master and
pilot, j. C. Downing, who, besides violating
rule 81, section 4233, United States Revised
Statutes, by running his ship above moderate
speed in a fog; therefore it is hereby decreed
that the license of said ]. c. Downing as master
and pilot be revoked, ana he is hereby tor-
hidden to exercise the duties prescribed in his
said license
1t is not inappropriate for the court to state,
for the information OF licensed masters and
pilots, that it is a common remark in the office
of the local Boards of Inspectors of steam
vessels here that, if masters of wrecked steam
ers took q 1.-THE of the pains in keeping their
ships at safe distance from danger that they
subsequently do in their examinations IN
explaining how they ran ashore, there would
be fewer disasters of the kind.
