Members Of the Board Who Are
Slated to Vote in His
Favor.
BURNHAM MAY NOT ENTER THE RACE.
TIE Contest Will Probably Narrow
Down After the First Ballot to
Davidson and Sohaeberle.

The Regents of the University of Cali
fornia will meet to-day at Mark Hopkins
Institute, according TO special order
passed at the last session OF the board to
elect direc or of the Lick Observatory,
Mount Hamilton, 10 succeed Professor L.
w. Holden, whose resignation has been
accepted, TO take effect January 1, 1898.
The indications last night were favor
able for a full attendance of the board.
There are three active candidates-Pro-
fessor George w. Davidson, Professor
Schaeberlel and Professor Keller. 1t was
the talk among Regents last evening that
The conte would narrow down 10 David
son and Schaeberle after the first or Sec
ond ballot. The chances seem to be
slightly in favor of Professor Davidson.
1t is the custom of tie Regents to hold
al executive session whenever an impor-
tant election is on hand, and it is prob
able that here will be no departure from
the rule to-day. The names of several
welI-known advocates of Professor David
som lection are known.
The friends OF Davidson claim the votes
OF any where from four 10 eleven OF the Re-
gents. The most outspoken of them all is
Judge H. s. Foote, VINO says he is going
to speak for Davidson at the meeting to-
Gay anu lDdl Gt W lAl MIN II nc
one else is willing to do so. General
Houghton is another who has expressed
his readiness to vote for Davidson, and TO
Davidson's friends Judge Wallace, Cover
nor Budd, l. w. Hellman, Z. A. Denicke
and L,eutenant-Governor Jeter are al
said to have expressed themselves in favor
o. the veteran scientist. Mrs. Hearst,
Albert NJ ler, Judge Slack and John Z.
Bpod are also counted among ;he David
son supporters, while Arthur Rodgers,
George T. Marye and J. b. Reinstein are
put on the doubtful list.
Professor Burnt ham, late of the LICK OBJ
servatory but now one of the astronomers
AT the big Yerkes observatory in Chicago,
was a one time considered to be a candi-
date. but his attitude toward Professor Da-
wilson has been such as 10 place that possi-
biliJy about out of the question. He has
written from his present location that the
LICK observatory is the best In The world =,
considered from a climatic stand point,
and he has expressed in these letters the
wish that Professor Davidson would be
placed at its head. In one of his letters
he writes that be would be glad to come
back TO Mount Hamilton were Davidson
In charge.

THE kIGRT TO DISMISS.
SacramentO's Superintendent of Streets
Case Before the Supreme Court

SacramentO's Superintendent of Streets
Case Before the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court has affirmed the de-
clslon OF the lower court OF Sacramento
County in the case of +. J. Croly against
the Board OF Trustees OF the City of Sac
ramento. a citizen OF that city presented
TO the Board OF Trustees written Charges
against Croly as Superintendent OF Streets,
alleging that he was Incom petent, neg
ed his official duties AMI violated sec
ZION 211 Of the Stale laws, relative TO an
official Deing interested in any contract or
work Tor which money Is paid out OF the
treasury, or beng Interested In franchises,
rights or privileges granted by the city.
The trustees fixed a time for the hearing
OF the charges, but CroIy petitioned the
Superior Court for a writ OF prohibition,
which was granted with an order for the
board TO show cause why 1t should not be
perpetual. To this the board demurTed
and the demurrer was sustained, and from
that Judgment Croly appealed. This was
based upon the proposition that tassuming
that the charges were properly presented
and the trustees could iry and pass
judgment npon the petitioner the accusa-
tlon preferred was not sufficient to confer
jurisdiction. In other words that the
charges were so defectvely stated as not
10 give the board jurisdiction. Again
The State law holds that upon an officer
OSAuS JOuHu SuAllg anu lung MS
position shall be forever disqualified rom
holding any position in the city. Upon
this Croly contends that if the offense be
sufficiently grave to warrant his d!squali-
hcation from holding office his guilt must
be established by court first. He con-
tended that the city's charter was uhcon-
sutuuonal, as it constituted the board as
judicial tribunal. he Superior Court
did not take this view of the ca and in
its decision the Supreme Court agrees in
the following words:
ut cannot be questioned that the ap-
pointment of d Superintendent of Streets
is matter purely municipal, and which
may properly be lett 10 the municipality
10 be exercised in the manner provided III

a logical consequence that the power to
remove officer so appointed is equally
a matter OF municipal concern

The Improvement club in this section

Company and the Supervisors for relief,
but these prayers and pleadings have
br"ughs no relief.
The Asse ssor, Tax Collector and license
gatherer, however, never fail to recognize
a propeTty-owner or business man from
the Sunset District. There has been nc
exception to this rule for the spast forty
years, And now those people who have

OF the other people of the city would fee

A NEGLECTED SECTION.
Sunset District Taxed, but Not
Provided For by the City
Authorities.
No Water, No Lii ghts and No Proteo-
tiOn Against Fire or Midnight
Providers.

Sunset, that portion OF the municipality
south of the Golden Gate Park and west of
the Affiliated Colleges, is about as much
isolated from the comforts and protection
OF parent government such as is afforded
the residents of big city as if 1t were To-
Gated one hundred miles from a country
village.
Water is furnished the inha bitants out
of barrel, drawn over the slopes on a
sled with a mule hitched to the shafts, AT
so much per week, according to the num-
Der of gallons used. The streets are as
void of illumination after sundown as is
one OF the ravines in Chilcoot Pass. in
Alaska.
As for protection against fire. it is an
unknown utility. This was made appa-
rent week ago when what is known as
"Sutro's Village" was burned down. In
this instance the Fire Department re-
sponded with its usual prom mptness, but in
consequence of the distance the nearest
engine had to travel, 1t required twenty
five minutes TO reach the scene of con-
fagration. It's arrival. however, wa bar
rem of results, as there was no water in
the hydrant at Fifth avenue and II street,
three blocks distant from where the fire
was consuming the building. To prevent
the spread Of this destructive agent TO the
adjoining property, the engineer in charge
ordered the demolition OF building
alongside of that which was on fire.
In this valley OF neglect there are more

miles an hour test running ought to be

worries Fair to Illus trate the first decade
OF railroad development III tue United
States.
The TACT may not be known at the vel
low b.ildinC, but il is true nevertheless
that the New York Central train that
leaves New York at 5 P. NJ. arrives at Chi
cago the next day at p. NJ. Allowing one
hour for difference In time the flight be-
tween the TWO cities is made IN twenty
four hours, and the distance covered is
916 miles. An average speed of forty
miles IN hour Is maintained. The limited
express of the Pennsy vania Railroad
leaves New York at 10 A. NJ. and arrives
IN Chicago at P NJ. the day following.
The time, adding he hour for difference,
l. twenty-four hours and the distance 9I2
miles. THIS modem rate of speed Is not
restricted TO ROADS east of the Mississippi
River. For example. the train OF the chi
cago and Northwestern which leaves CHI
ago Al P NJ. arrives in Council b uffs ?
1882 A. NJ. The time is thirteen hours
and thIrty-two minutes and the dis ance
4oS miles. he average IS slightly in
excess Of thirty TX miles an hour.
Filmore's idea OF high speed on the
Southern Pac tic is twenty-elght miles an
hou-. In his judgment 1t is not SAFE for
the trains from Ogden TO San Francisco 10
be moved at a S litter pace. A speed of
twenty-four miles an hour or thirty-tve
hours from Ogden TO Tins city Is consld-
cred safe.
A well-known railroad man said yester-
day: "Wh you are looking into pas

the time that IL takes 20 bring in goods

SLOT TN THE BALANCE,
Isaac Deutsoh's Appeal Argued
Before Judge Carroll
Cook.
Defense Claims the Machine Is Not a
Lottery as COntended by the
Prosecution.

Judge Carroll Cooks courtroom was
crowded with cigar and saloon men yes
terday, who copgregated TO listen to the
argument in the appeal of Isaac Deutsch
from The judgment OF the Police Court
finding him guilty of conducting a lottery
IN that he made use OF a mic Ike lin the-slot
machine in order 10 augment the receipts
accruing from his business. As soon as
convicted in the lower court Judge Con-
Ian fined Deutsch $40, but the fine has not
been paid and will not be unless the de-
clsion is affirmed in the Superior Court.
After argument had closed yesterday al
ternoon the case was submitted and de-
cisIon will be handed down In a few days.
The prosecution rests upon the conten-
tiOn that the slot machine is plai My lot
terry, and under section 319 Of the Penal
Code is unlawful. On the side OF the de-
Tense, however, IL is alleged that i'll con-
ducling slot machine one does not vIo-
late the provisions of section 3i9 OF the
Penal Code, as IL contends that the slot
machine is game OF chance, or gamplin e
game, and does not partake of the essence
OF lottery. Owing TO the hair-spi;tting
difference and contention OF y aintff and
defendant the argument of counsel par
look of much finesse and scholastic re-
fnement. Peter +. Bunne and Walter H.
Levy represented the defendant and al
gued at length in his behalf.
District Attorney William S. Barnes
represented the case OF The people. Il
was admitted by both sides that decisions
and precedents applying 10 the case at bar
were conflicting, but prosecution and de-
tense alike were certain that the philos-
ophy o the decisions substantiating their
contention was the true philosophy, and
that decisions TO the conlrarY were er-
roneous. 1t now rest, with Judge Cook
10 take the number of cases cited, draw
his conclusions and decide the case

Can't


to take any chances with your
constitution. Whiskey is a good
and valuable thing for men and
women, as the best physicians
and scientists of the world all
admit, but whiskey with any
lmpurity, or whiskey that is not
100 per cent proof, or whiskey
that is bottled by any institution
that you do not know and can
not rely upon is worse than use
less-it is positively dangerous.
Unfortunately, there are a
vast number of impure whis-
kies in the market-whiskies
that have not been indorsed and
are simply concoctions, but at
last there is ole which bears
the Endorsement of the United
States Government, inasmuch
as it is bottled under the direc-
ton of the Government, and
bears the Government stamp
guaranteeing that it is 100 per
cent proof, thus guaranteeing
its absolute standing. That
whiskey is go. F. c." and it
has naturally become very pop
ular with the community by
reason of the qualities above
named. 1t can be procured Of
all leading liquor dealers, and
cannot be too highly recon-
mended to those who desire the
qualities which help the consti-
tuition, add vigor to the life and
thus make men and women
healthier and happier.
