The South Carolina delegation Is

Hunt Of the Southern railway, ac-
companied the party in the private

He intends to carry the party
through in fine style and see that

The car left the Union depot here
yesterday morning about $3.50 O'Clock.
On the outside of the car were
unique placards. They were prepared
in the State capitol and those who
went through that place yesterday
could see the design for the painter
laid the thin cloth on the floor and
paint went through and took effect
upon the floor just as it is claimed
that T. Pitchfork handles A. Goidbug.
On the ends of each placard were
the words South" and 'tCarolina."
In the centre of each was the inscrip-
ton s'16 to l or Bust with design
"a Palmetto tree and pitchfork
crossed. Think of that! The old
palmetto tree has been put to good
many uses in the last few years
used as an emblem on bottles of one
x LIQUID fire and so on, but this is
the first time that it has been made
to associate with the pitchfork.

the last year and that real estate is now
worth less than it was year ago, and
much less than it was two years since, and
not over go per cent of what it was three
years ago. Such letter would go this
morning to Sacramento, he said.
Continuing, he said he would not adj
wise to send delegation, but he would
send the ideas of the Merchants Associa-
ton in black and white. He had not much
of an opinion of the effect of delegation,
and he thought letter would be better.
Colonel Taylor said he would have no OBJ
lection to ask for delay.
Mr.. Briggs was then asked If he would
join in the request for delay. He said the
Assessors office would join in anything OF
that kind, but he did not think any delay
would be granted.
Mr.. Rothschild then offered as substi-
tute for Mr.. Won Rheims motion that a
telegram asking further time be sent, and
committee of five be appointed to take
charge of the affair, and in case of time
being granted to appear before the board
in person if necessary, and also to prepare
a statement for the boards action.
After some discussion Mr.. Rothschild's
motion prevailed and Mr.. Dohrman ap-
pointed the committee. The members at
once drew up their chairs to the table and
started the formulation of the resolution
and the telegram, which were afterward
adopted by the meeting.

These and the similar rates from other
points correspond almost exactly to the
rates issued by the Valley road for COM
petitive points. In many cases the Valley
road rates are trife lower than those
quoted by the Southern Pacific and in q
few rare cases the Southern Pacific car
load rates are very little lower than
those of its competitor.
wherever our rates are higher we shall
come down." said Traffic Manager Moss
of the Valley road yesterday.
Among the most important articles OF
shipment which gointo the San Joaquin
Valley are agricultural implements, which
are in class A, and the reduction in rates

table given. Dry goods and clothing are
scheduled in the first class as a rule, and
most groceries go in the second class.
Soap, which is one of the important arti-
Giles of freight traffic, is in the fourth class.
The large reductions thus made by the
Southern Pacific Company, however, affect
but small portion of California, and fur

1t was said last season that Camp had
trained up second eleven at Palo Alto
that was almost as good as the varsity.
Among the exceptionally promising men
was FISHER, halfback, who developed
too late to make the team but early
enough to make the veteran halfbacks APP
prehensive of their positions. Another
likely back was Ben Thomas. The work
OF Mcintosh (138 pounds), captain OF last
years freshmen team, as daring,
dashing quarter, makes him q prob

varsity. Rice Q72 pounds, for the
last three years one OF tne most

giant shot-putter and hammer-thrower,
who entered the university after the foot
ball season was over, will try Tor place
in the line, probably tackle or guard,
having played the latter POSITION IN the
Olympic Club team last year. He weighs
about 1875 pounds and is powerfully built.
In addition, there are Harrington, lS7
pounds, substitute guard last year and
promising man; Bunker, LOB pounds,
second eleven man, who played Tor the
Reliance Club part of last season, and
Hughes, Holbrook, Arnold and Straight,
all lively light men.

Pribyfof Islands.
SEATTLE, WASH, Aug 17.-The steam
ship Portland. Captain William Kidston,
arrived in port to-day from st. Michaels
and Unalaska, bringing advices from the
latter place to August Z.
The revenue cutter Rush dropped down
upon Unalaska on August 6 from the seal
ing grounds off Pribyloff Islands. There
are some seventy sealing schooners on the
grounds this season. so the commander of
the Rush reported, ana of these about
sixty-fve are flying the British flag.
Owing to very unfayorable weather, not
to exceed two or three seals to the
schooner had, up to August g. been
killed-the season opened on August l.
whereas under ordinarily favorable con-
ditions each vessel would capture af MANY
as hundred seals in that length of time.
Captain Kidston says the water is very
cold in and around the island, preventing
the seals from making their appearance.
owing to the prevalence OF ice from the
Yukon and the Arctic as late as July 10.
The Government Seal Commission.
headed by DR.. David Starr Jordan. was
preparing to leave UnaIaska on the Rush
for a cruise to the sealing feet when the
Portland sailed.

will have Murphy, quarterback from
Salem, Or; Harry Scoville, a Riverside
High School player who weighs1 It's pounds
and is solidly built; Sheehy, big San
Francisco boy who weighs 200 pounds and
can run hundred yards in less than
eleven seconds, and perhaps Perkins of
Southern California, man who attended
the Case School of Applied Sciences in the
East last year; a brother of Clemans, STAN
ford football hero and captain of '92; and
"Pogey" Griffiths, a player from st. Mat
thew's School at San Mateo. Clemans will
try for the football team, his brother
writes, and is sure of making the baseball
team. He spent the last year in one of the
colleges of the Ohio Valley. Griffiths is
now lively baseball player.
Manager Dave Brown of the Stanford
team said yesterday that he purposes to
have two football fields ready for use as
soon as college opens. He believes that
many of the early accidents of each season
have been due largely to the poor condi-
ton of the field when the beginners first
got out.
Brown is an Oakland boy and all his
earlier schooling was obtained in that
city. While at the High School he de-
veloped into a wonderful runner and be-
fore his graduation in December, 1892, had
won thirteen medals in contests with
many of the best distance men on the
coast. Immedi lately after leaving the
High School he entered Stanford and for
the last four seasons has been member
OF the varsity track athletic team.
In 1895 under his captaincy the foun da-
ton was laid for the excellent team that
competed with the Berkeley champions
this year and divided honors evenly.
Brown was energetic and enthusiastic,
and through his efforts what was the
mere outline of cinder track at Stanford
for several years was converted into use
full reality.
Last season Brown was manager of the
track team. His success in the past made
him the logical candidate for the response
bic managerial position he now holds. Dur
ing his three and half years at college
Brown has distinguished himself as a
mlle-runner, having on several occasions
lowered his own coast record for the mile.
which stands to-day at min. 80 sec.,
although he has covered the distance in
practice In 4 minutes % seconds. Not
large, Brown is one of the few persons
that would be taken for record-breaking
athlete. He is u years of age, 5 feet ~
inches In height, and weighs 145 pounds.
de Is an exceptionally good Judge of pace
and seems to run naturally and without
exertion.
Strange to say, his younger brother,
Everett Brown, this years track captain
at Berkeley, is also an unusually fine half
mile and mile runner. But though the
brothers attend rival universities they
have never yet decided their relative
speed In race for that nurDose
