CLOSED THE STABLE DOOR.

The Demurrer Sustained Year Ago
should Have Been OverruIed.
Better late than never" but it does
seem as If the decision just handed down
by the Supreme Court in the case of Wal
lace Bradford against the City and County
is just little behind time.
On May Ia, 1895, just after it had been
announced that there was no more money
IN the treasury, Bradford commenced suit
TO restrain the City government from con-
tracing any more debts, as there was no
money in sight. The City demurred to
his complaint, and this demurrer was sus-
tanned. An appeal was taken, and pend
ing the appeal the City continued to con-
tract debts. Now, at this late day, the
Supreme Court decides that the demurrer
should have been overruled, instead OF
sustained, but in the meantime the City
owes $3.50, 900 which it cannot pay.
The Supreme Court refers to the section
OF the constitution which requires city
government to keep its annual expenses
within its annual income. 1t considers 1T
an excellent section, and comments as fol-
lows:
This provision was and is to confine munich
pal expenditures for each year to the income
and revenue OF such year, save only in the
cases where two-thirds OF the qualified elect
orS shall determine as in the section provided
1t PLACES limit, a check upon the power of
municipal officers TO expend money beyond
the resources provided for the current year.
The motive which NAV influence municipal
officers 10 impose low rate of taxation, sooIh-
ing the taxpayers and indulge in the practice
OF eXpending large sums of the peoples money,
practice always popular with the recipients
OF public funds, is easily comprehended.
To thwart the possibility of such a course
may have been an object OF the trainers of our
constitution.
Be that as It may, one thing is certain. For
causes which seemed good to the trainers of
our fundamental law barrier against indebt-
edness by municipal officers and local bodies
has been created by the constitution. The
door has been locked against all Indebtedness
of these local bodies add the key placed in the
hands of the electors who alone can use ii, and
the judiciary may not arrogate to itself the
power to undo what has been thus solemnly
DONE
The Judgment is, therefore, reversed
and the Superior Court is ordered to over
rule the demurrer; but to try the suit will
do little good now.

Building Trades Keep Up the
Fight for the Working
Card.

The second days fight of the unions of
the building trades to enforce its working
card, eight hours day and the stand
ard rate OF wages showed that the COM
mittees of unemployed are making some
progress. At the meeting yesterday the
chairmen of committees, who are securing
every district in the City, made their re-
ports. A number of non-union men were
reported as having made application TO
JOIN the unions of their calling. Among
the special features were the following:
The big repair job on First and Market
streets was struck and two plasterers and
a hodcarrier called out. This has been a
non-union job for the past two weeks owing
to the presence of P. n. Kuss' non-union
painters, but although it was struck"
job these three men were found at work.
At 134 Eighth street q non-union job
was found, but nothing could be done. On
Monday house-building job on Twenty
fourth and Folsom streets was struck. but
yesterday when the committee passed by
some of the men who had been called out
were found back at work, and other men
were filling the places of the union men
who had refused to return. The COM
mittee again struck the job and called the
men out for second time.
On Twenty-fifth and Folsom streets is
another job of identically the same char
acter. Union men ordered out on Mon
day had returned to work with others on
the following day, making second call
out necessary.
On Sixteenth and Folsom John Center
is erecting building upon which only
non-union men are employed. who work
nine hours a day. The committee was
powerless. AT 324 O'Farrell street and sos
Geary street are non union repair jobs.
On Suffer and Hyde is similar job On
McAlister and Baker an Oakland con-
tractor is doing work and paving his men
only 81 so and So 75. Several union car
penters were ordered to strike for $3,
for workmen to fill the places.
1t was decided to follow up the commit
tee work throughout the City and meet
again at 3 o'clock to-day. The Building
Trades Council will be asked to call an
other mass-meeting at the end of the week.

TO THE ARCHITECTS.

Their Attention Is Called to Goods to
Be Produced in California.
The secretary of the Manufacturers and
Producers Association has given the local
architects rap over the knuckles in cir
cnlar letter which was mailed yesterday.
and which reads:
To the Architects Our attention has been
called to the fact that the architects of San
Francisco (some of them members of this asso-
ciation) do not at all times give the preference
to home-man ufactured goods where price and
quality are equal. We therefore beg to call
your attention to the fact that great deal of
the material required in the construction and
repairing of buildings can be procured of Cali
fornia manufacture equal in price and quality
to any other, and to request that in drawing
specifications you will bear this matter in
mind, and whenever possible give the prefer
ence to the California article

Crops Above the Average.

The returns to the Department of Ag-
riculture for November as to the rates of
yield, make the average of corn 27.3 bush
els, which is above the yield indicated by
the condition figures in October. Last
year the preliminary estimate of yield
was 26.2 bushels. The average yield of
buckwheat is 1877 bushels, against 20 l
bushels last year and 16. l for 1894.
The average yield per acre of potatoes
is SOS bushels, which though not phe-
nominal is nevertheless above the average
for the past two years. The average yield
of hay as indicated by the preliminary re-
turns is l.36 tons, against LOG last year.
The European agent notes the lack of
trustworthy estimates OF the Russian
wheat shortage, The advance in price is
expected to be fairly maintained and will
result in an increased acreage in Great
Britain. The wet weather in October
throu ghout Central Europe was unfavor-
able for the potato crop. A good corn
yield was realized on the lower Danube.

The Venezuela Question.
A Peaceabe Settlement Fore -sha dOwed,
Triumph for American Diplomacy.

WASHINGTON, Nov. II. Considerable
surprise was manifested in diplomatic and
official circles that the United States and
not Venezuela is the party of the first
part to the arbitration arrangement with
Great Britain.
1t had been supposed that the sole
function of this country was that of me-
diator and that Notwithstanding the forci-
BILE tone Of President Cleveland's message
to Congress last Christmas, Venezuela
was not to be succeeded as principal by
this country. The attitude in which the
United States is now placed, it is claimed,
partakes largely of the position of pro-
tector of the weaker sister republics of
this country.
This, in the opinion of many skilful
diplomats, imposes grave responsibility
on this country, somewhat similar to
that which English statesmen have re-
peatedly endeavored to fasten upon the
United States Government since the DAYS
of Canning.
1t is apparent that under the terms of
the agreement Venezuela cannot resist
the decree of arbitration, however adj
verse to her extreme contentious it may
be, and the United States is bound to see
that the award is enforced.
By this proposed Venezuelan treaty it
is conceded that new page of American
history has been turned.
With regard to arbitration it is antici-
pated that some time must elapse before
its contamination. Justice Brewer, the
president of the American commission
will probably be the American member of
the tribunal.
AS explained by the American commits
sioners to-day their efforts are not by any
means suspended, but will be redoubled
to complete the evidence as soon as pos
sibe so as to be in position to reach and
announce decision at any time should
the project for arbitration from any cause
fall through.
The United States having taken the
matter entirely into its own hands, will
undoubtedly spare no effort to gain de-
cisive victory. The most eminent coun-
sci obtainable will necessarily be obtain
ed. Fortunately the executive force of
the commission, which under Secretary
Malot- Provost has developed so much ey-
idence hitherto overlooked by either con
testant will be available as well as such
experts as Prof Burr. Among the coun
sci very likely will be Jas. b. Storrow OF
| Boston, now leading counsel for Nene-
| Zuela.
LONDON, Nov. II. The officials of the
foreign office take exception to the state
ments which have been made that Vene
zuela will not be represented directly il
the arbitration tribunal.
The foreign office authorities sugges
that there is still a doubt whether Nene
zuela will have her own member of the
tribunal; at any rate Great Britain re
CARDS the United States representatives a
acting for Venezuela.
