The meeting was organized by the elec-
ton of +. w. Dohrmann, president of the
Merchants Association, as the perma-
nent chairman. In taking the chair MIR.
Dohrmann stat d that the object of the
meeting was The improvement of the pave
ments of the downtown streets now paved
with cobDles. He stated that at the last
meeting of the Board of Supervisors a
resolution was adopted that the board will
agree to pay one-half the expense of the
repaying of these blocks, provided the
property-owners paid the other half. A
message was also received from the clerk
of the Board OF Supervisors that the City
would probably pay three-querters of the
expense OF the requirement. of the street
fronting City property.
A general discussion then ensued, show
ing the great desirability OF having these
blocks repaved. Mayor-elect Pheian
stated he believed the work should be
undertaken at once and other speakers
present joined him in showing their will
iugness to. have the work done. After a
further discussion of the subject by
Messrs. A. S. Baldwin, o. D. Baldwin,
Marion Leaventritt, Colonel E. A. Denicke
and Andrew NJ. Davis, the meeting decided
favorably to the proposition of having the
work done at once.
The chairman of the meeting was then
unanimously requested to appoint COM
ttee consisting of two propertv-owners
III each block TO solicit the names of other
property-owners to the agreement. The
chairman stated that the appointment of
the committees would be made as soon as
it could be determined what property-own-
ers in each block would be willing TO serve
upon the committee. Undoubtedly the
committees will be appointed within few
days.
Before the meeting closed the chairman
stated that there was no preference for any
special kind of pavement or in favor of
any contractor. The entire object of the
Merchants Association in calling the
meeting was simply TO initiate the move
ment for the i'm provement of these blocks.
The meeting then adjourned subject to
the call of the chair.

WILL DEAL WITH
THE GAMBL ERS
The Grand Jury After the
Lottery and Faro
Players.
Downtown Pool Sellers on Horse
Races Are Also Under
Consideration.
Police c. mmissioners and Chie f Crow
ley Suggest Methods to Pre-.
vent the Evil.

The Grand Jury was in special session
yesterday to consider matters pertaining
to the Police Department.
The gambling phase was taken up to
the exclusion of everything else, and
Chief Crowley as well as the Police Com
missioners were called upon to say why
the City ordinances were not enforced.
The grand Jurors, backed by the knowl-
edge they had gained by personal obser-
vation, asked the Comm issioners and the
Chief how it was that lotteries, both
among the whites and the Chinese, were
running day and night; how it was that
faro banks were accessible to whoever
cared to play. and how it was that pool
rooms for the sale of tickets on races were
open in the City.
Chief Crowley explained that his men
had instructions to make arrests in all the
cases mentioned, and that they had done
so repeatedly.
The fault OF the entire system, according
to the Chief, is that the Police Courts do
not impose fines heavy enough to
deter others from committing the same
offense.
Lottery ticket venders, the Chief stated,
could only be fined limit OF $50, whereas
the maximum should be sufficiently large
to be punishment. Heavy fines should
be inflicted on men found with lottery
tickets in their pockets, and faro-bank
dealers, who are now permitted to go at
large with fine of $500, should be mulcted
to the extent of $1,000, while the players
should be fined $780, instead of ONLY $40.
The jury accepted the suggestions and
propose to incorporate them in a recon-
mendation to be properly presented to the
next Legislature.

WILL COME HERE
That Is the Expectation of
Some of the Temper

Local Rallies of the Women's
Christian Temperance
Union.
Success Has Attended the Efforts of
the Safe Organic r to Augment
Membership.

During the present week the Women's
Christian Temperance Union has been
holding series of meetings in this City.
Yesterday two meetings were held al 132
McAllister street. One of, these was the
County board meeting and the other was
the meeting of the Central Union, which
was ttended by representatives of all the
local unions in the County. Mrs. I'll. II.
Luse, the County president. and Mrs. Hen
rietts Shelton were present. A leading
subject of discussion was the coming of
Miss Frances Willard, who is expected to
visit and work in California during the
coming winter.
Mrs. Henrietta Skelton also made re-
port concerning her work In this County,
where she has met with much success in
the matter of augmenring the member
ship of the local unions. Two meetings
were held on Sunday, which were well at
tended-one at the Zion Nj. E. Church and
one at the West Side Christian Church.
Meetings were held Monday in the Hamil-
ton-square Baptist Church and the Eng
glish Lutheran Church, and on Tuesday
in the First Presbyterian Church, the Cal
vary esbytarian Church end the Powell
street NJ. E. Church.

in Lasseh, Modoc, Plumas and Sierra
counties. From here she will proba bly, go
to Colusa and Glenn counties and later
will pursue the work of organization In
Butte and San Luis Obispo counties. Dur
ing the past year much labor has been ex-
pended in twelve counties IN the northern
part of the State, namely: Siskiyou,
Shasta, Sacramento, San Francisco, Ala
media, Sonoma, Monterey, Santa Cruz, San
Benito, Amador, Calaveras and San
Joaquin counties, and less amount of
work was performed in Southern Cali
fornia.
The president OF the State organization
urged the prosecution of the work In the
line of increasing membership at the last
State convention, urging that increased
membership means an increase of strength,
and that TO secure this increase lecturers
and organizers must be kept In the field.
All the workers in the Women's Christian
Temperance Union work are in excellent
spirits concerning the outlook for larger
local unions in many counties.

REFRIGERATOR CARS.
The Railroad Commissioners and the
Southern Pacific May Clash Again
About Jurisd iction.

About Jurisdiction.
The Board of State Railroad Commits
sioners met yesterday in its office in this
City. Com missioners Stanton and La
Rue were present.
Little business was transacted, the two
Commissioners contning themselves to
an inspection OF the proof sheets of their
report to Governor Budd. No changes of
importance were made in the report, but
refrigerator cars were discussed in an in
formal way. In the report there is reso-
luton adopted by the last Legislature
calling for an investigation into these cars,
and the Commission decided yesterday to
prepare supplemental report on refriger-
ator cars regarding its jurisdiction or
powers over them.
The Southern Pacific Company holds
that the Railroad Com mission has no CON-
troll over those cars, as they are employed
in interstate business, and there is no need
for refrigerator cars in local traffic
throughout California. Upon this ground
any attempt to regulate rates on refriger-
ators will likely be contested In the courts
should the commission decide that it has
control.

PHILBROoK's NEW MOVE.

He Has Filed Petition Which Attacks
the Supreme Court.
Horace w. PhiIbrook has prepared for
filing a petition in the Supreme Court
E. that the two decisions filed November 5,
>: 1895. in the case of Ira P. Rankin as ad-
mInistrator OF the estate of John Levin
son, deceased, against William j. New.
mali and Benjamin Newman, be vacated.
:: MIR. Philbrook opened his petition with
a request "that the case be heard and de-
=: cided in accordance with, the constitution
and the law and the dictates of truth and
Justice" He then proceeded TO state the
grounds of his request The first of these
was that there was no decision or iudg-
fnent having the concurrence OF four JUS
tices, while the constitution provided
that the concurrence of four Justices
present at tn argument should be neces-
sary 10 pronounce judgment in bank
The two decisions were made in bank
One decision declared that the articles of
partnership authorized a sale OF the dead
partn RS interest TO the surviving part
ners and the other declared that the arti-
. eles did not authorize sale and that the
sale twas unauthorized and void" Mr.
Fhflbrook therefore claimed that there
was no concurrence of iour Justices, three
.having decided one way and three having
decided the other on this point.
Mr. PhiIbrook's second allegation was
that the case was ordered submitted in
violation of the statutes. Mr.. Rankin
never having been required by the adverse
party 10 appoint another attorney or hav-
ing appeared in person. The third was
that, under the constitution, there could
be no decision in bank against party
without first allowing him the right
freely TO argue the case in open court"
Mr. Philbrook reiterated the charges
which he had previously made concerning
hrs disbarment by the Justices and averred
that when the case was at last caIled on
August IA, 1895, neither Mr.. Rankin nor
any one representing him was in court
and the cause was ordered submitted
without word spoken for or by the pain
tiff. The plaintiff never submitted the
case for decision"
Another reason civen for granting the
petition was that the two decisions filed
November 5, 1896. were void because not
made within ninety days after the SUBJ
mission OF the case. 1t was not decided
for seven months after the case was trans
ferred to bank. There were many other
reasons alleged, and many pages IN which
shaTp mention was made concerning
Ralph Z. Harrison, now Justice Harrison,
and also concerning the other Justices.
Mr.. Phibrook said also that the brief
which the Supreme Court described as
"Mr.. Philbrook's tirade" was not his brief,
but was Ira p. Rankin's as administrator,
and that when it was filed he iPhilbrook)
was held under disbarment and was not
allowed to file any brief.

She admitted that she had visited Mr.. Bar
ton at his home for the purpose of getting
the address of some reputable lawyer to
