NO HELP FOR
THE OUSTED.
Writ Of Review Applied For
by the Old Board Of
Supervisors.

The ousted Supervisors were defeated
in the Supreme Court yesterday. They
hoped to procure stay of proceedings by
a writ of review, but the court promptly
denied the application. Meanwhile they
are making a show of exercising offic al
power by holding sessions in the commit
tee oom adjoining the Clerks office of the
Board of Supervisors. They handle
petitions and sign demands for several
sums of NJ oney, but there is no sign that
either the Auditor or Treasurer will pay
any attention 10 demands so allowed.
If the intrusion of the ex-mem bers at
the Office of the board should become an
unbearable nuisance. steps may be taken
to deny them admittance.
The writ of review asked for has been
denied. All that now rem aims is direct
appeal. Even if the transcripts are filed
at once and the proper forms gone
through with it is doubtful if any de-
cision would be had for two years.
A powerful fact in connection with the
case is that the new board are de facto Of
ficiaIs. engaged in the performance of their
duties, and all acts or measures taken by
them cannot fail to be recognized as valid

dead.
The Supreme Court, in denying the
writ, had this to say:
The petition for certiorari TO review the
judgment OF the Superior Court removing the
Board OF Supervisors of the City and County
of San Francisco from office in proceeding
under the provisions of the act of March z,
1881 Stats. OF 1881, p 54).
The writ must be denied. The facts alleged
disclose no excess of jurisdiction. and error
in the proceedings, not involving excess OF
jurisdiction, II there was such error, cannot
be reviewed by certlorari
Ex- Supervisor Haskins said last even
ing that it makes no difference whether
the Supreme Court has denied the writ of
review or not, the battle for the old board
to hold their positions would be carried on
for ten years If necessary.
I'VE have got no stay of proceedings in
the matter" he said, but that makes no
difference at all, because our appeal TO the
Supreme Court will doubtless be filed in
the m morning. and | understand from our
attorneys that it will act as a stay OF pro-
ceedings itself. II was a foregone conclu-
sion that Wallace would decide as he did,
and we were prepared for it.
The affair is all the maneuvering OF the
Mayor and we have get into this trouble
simply from following his advice. That
Judge Wallace was also concerned in it is
shown by the fact that the Mayor placed
the name OF Nougues forward for appoint
ment."

THE DRAW In LAW.
Interesting Decision Rendered
by Superior Judge
Beloher.
The Contract Is Not Complete by
the Fighters and Bettors Can
Recover Their Money.

Harry Corbett will probably be COM
PEELED to repay Jacob Werner the $3.50
which he recently wagered on the
Sharkey- Maher fight, which turned out to
be draw.
When Werner brought mis- suit de-
murrer was interposed by Corbett in
which he sa id that Werner could have no
recourse at law, because the contract he
entered into when he placed his money
on the fight was unlawful as against p u b.
lie policy; the contract being void, he
contended that Werner could not recover
the money.
Werner responded that as the match
resulted in draw the contract had not
been completed and that he had the priv
lie &c of wiIhdrawing from the agreement
at any time he chose 10 do so.
In passing upon the demurrer Judge
Belcher held that Werners s contention w as
good, as in law it was necessary TO COM
plete the contract, that the sub ject- matter
of the contract should be completed and
the result be publicly announced.
'In the case at bar the result had not
become generally known" said Judge
Beicher, "ior the contest was draw
that is, neither party won. In law the
averment IS tantamoLnt TO an allegation
that there was no contest, and SO, logi-
cally, there was not, because no result
was announced.
Corbett has the privilege of amending
his mplaint if he shall be advi ed so to
do, but attorneys generally consider that
Judge belcher's ruling on the demurrer
was the litigation so lar as the Superior
Court is concerned, and Supreme Court
decision will be required to establish the
law on this point in eamb bling.

A. NJ. LAWRENCE
MUST APPEAR
Summoned to the Police
Court on a Charge of
Criminal Libel.
The Writ Of Prohibition Issued
by Presiding Judge Sea-
well Dismissed.
Various Pretexts by Which the Ac-
cused Obtained Five Weeks
Delay.

Five weeks ago A. Nj. Lawrence of the
Exnminer was arrested for criminal libel
on complaint of Claus Spreckels. The ac-
cused was arrested and brought to the
Police Court for examination. Attorneys
employed to defend him contended that
it was not necessary that the accused
appear in the Police Court during the ex-
amina alton. Judge Cam pbeLl ruled that the
defendant must be present. as the law re-
quired witnesses to be examined in the
presence of the defendant, and SO gave
notice that bail would be forfeited if Law.
renee failed to attend. The attorneys
promised to have him there, but inme-
diately made a rush to the presiding Judge
of the Superior Court, and on some kind
of showing obtained a writ of prohibi-
ton to restrain Police Judge Campbell
from forfeiting the bond.
Grove l.. Johnson at once petitioned to
have the writ dismissed, but Judge Sea-
we'll would not hear ar ument on the Pc
tition. He assigned the case to Judge
Wallace, who did not want to hear 1t.
LAWYERS knew that it was tomfoolery to
stop Police Court trial N this fashion,
but the proceedings were arrested all the
same On one pretext and another the
case was postponed from time to time in
Judge Wallace's court at the request of
Lawrence's attorneys. On Friday of last
week Judge Wallace lost patience and
told the lawyers of Lawrence that the final
argument would be heard and he case de-
cided on Friday, September H. Yesterday
when the case was called A. j. Clunie,
counsel for Lawrence, seeing that no more
delay could he secured in that court, con-
sented to a dismissal of the writ.
The last postponement was granted on
the plea that Mr.. McEnerney desired 10
file an amendment. The time went by
for the filing and no amendment was pre-
sented. Mr.. Johnson could have gained
his point by the default of the Examiner
counsel, but he was willing that the court
should decide the question on its m orits.
The dismissal of the writ leaves the case
where it stood when Judge Campbell Or
dered the defendant to come into court.
The examination of Lawrence for crimi-
nal libel will now be resumed before
Police Judge Campbell.

THE NEW BOARD
AND IT'S LEVY.
Estimates Upon Which 1t Is
Made School Expenses
Cause Alarm.

The new Board of Supervisors revels in
figures, and the task Of formulating a tax
levy seems to be to its liking. When the
board met yesterday morning and re-
solved itself into committee of the
whole, with Mr.. Denman in the chair,
Supervisor Barry was the only absentee
recorded.
No time was wasted in settling down to
business and no opportunity lost to slash
estimates furnished by the Auditor or
made by the representatives CT various
branches of the municipal government.
The first matter taken up was the Fire
Department estimates. Chief Sullivan
was on hand TO support the claims OF the
department. Last year $674. 600 was ap-
propriated. As the Legislature increased
FIRE Department salaries to The extent of
STA, 800, the board, alter considerable dis
cussion, estimated that $759, 900 would be
necessary TO conduct the department the
coming year.
The Mayor stated that the Chief had re-
ceived assurances from insurance comps

the city would be reduced 10 per cent if

by the LEGISLATURE, was established. Clerk

alarm system wanted many things, but
was allowed but few. He desired TO spend
S5l, 900 for station in the City Hall
dome. $1S,060 for maintenance and $49, 900
tor salaries.
Supervisor Clinton could not see any
joke in spending this amount of money,
and on his motion the whole appropria-
iion for fire. alarm purposes was set a $45,.
600. OF this amount $4,000 is to be ex-
pended in the work of placing wires under
ground.
DR.. J. NJ. Williamson, superintendent
OF the County Hospital, was the next Off
clal to appear before the board. The doc
tor wanted an appropriation of $113, SIC
on which TO co-duct ;he Institution. Last
year $95, 900 was allowed. Chairman Dem
man said that when be was n Supervisor
several years ago $4,000 was considered
sufficient for the Institution. Supervisor
RottanZi favored an appropriation of $780,
000 declaring that there was always a
great deal OF money wasted at the hospi-
lai. All OF the Supervisors said they
favored a Ii beral appropriation for the hos
pital, but they wanted to be certain that
the inmates would derive the benefit of il.
