Consul General Lee Wants Them Sent
to Havana 20 EnfOrce tiis Demands
which the SpanIsrds Refused.

New York, Feb. PA dis
patch to the Herald from Jack
sonville, says:
Consul General Lee has re-
quested in urgent terms that the

prison"

mada for permission to eXhume

The guards allege that DR..
Ruiz committed suicide, but
info nation was conveyed to
General Lee that lie was mUr-
dered 1t was desired TO dis
inter the body to determine
whether il was a ease Of murder
or suicide.
General Lee reported that
this request, in every way rcas-
enable and made in the usual
manner, was refused, and all
his efforts TO have the refusal
rescinded had proved unavail-
ing. He asked instructions
from the state department.

and to insist upon compliance
with his demand.

lines has awakened a general desire to
contribute to the fund, SO that the
plan when achieved viii represent not
only her benefcence. but that of many
others who have means they can we'll
apply to this purpose.
We do not doubt that before the close
of another year there will be submitted
plans by the highest architectural mas
tiers OF the world, and that these will
result in the adoption of scheme for
the new university buildings that will
be set in motion by the commencement
of work upon them before the century
closes. The plan contemplated is so
vast, and the ideas entertained SO ideal,
it is scarcely probable that those who
contribute to the fund will live to wit
ness the full contamination of the
great work, but they will have the SUI
preme satisfaction of knowing that
they are building for themselves i'm
perishable monuments in the history of
the State and the world.

A REVOLUTIONARY ACT.

Now that the first flush of excite
ment has worn off concerning the Sup
eryisors' case in San Francisco, not
only the lawyers but everybody else
capable of thinking is wondering why
Mayor Phelan, his hackers and attor
neys were so short-sighted as to fail
to see that the appeal OF the old Board
of Supervisors left il de facto in office
had been legally removed. 1t appears
to us at this distance from the scene
of the contest that a primary school
boy ought to be able to understand the
proposition, it is so obvious, so mani
testify just, so sound all through.
But it seems that Mayor Phelan not
only did not see the matter in its true
aspect, but that he usurped the office
of executor, and by force elected a
board lawfully sitting from its cham
bers, by force installed a body as the
legislative arm of the municipality the
legality of the claim of which to sit
was still pending in court, and was
undetermined. 1t follows that the act
of the Mayor was revolutionary and
most dangerous.
We are considering this matter
wholly distinct and apart from any
of the contentious regarding the rea
sons for removal, the truth or falsity
of charges of combinations and corrup
ton in the old board, and wholly in
dependent of the question whether the
judgment of the court below ousting the
Supervisors was or was not sound
What the people have before them is
this plain proposition, namely: Every
citizen feeling aggrieved at the decis-
ion of a lower court may under certain
restrictions set out by the law, appeal
from the judgment to the court of last
resort, and except in certain cases
and this is not one of them-the taking
of that appeal holds in allegiance the
judgment of the court below. If this
is not true, then in ninety cases out of
a hundred appeal would be useless, and
a lower court could become autocratic
and unjust without check or hindrance.

THE UNIVERSITY PLANS.

The trustees of the Phoebe Hearst
architectural plan for the State Uni
versity have issued their prospectus.
It's most striking feature is this, that in
the competition between the artists and
architects of the world for the submis-
sion of designs and plans they are not
to be hampered by limits of cost or
time. They are told distinctly that
they are not to take any account of
the probable cost of the proposed
scheme of buildings, but simply the
artistic effect, architectural adaptation
to the site and its environment and the
purposes for which the buildings are
to be used.
It will be seen that this at once frees
the orignators of designs from all en-
barrassment, for they are to present
their ideals. not merely their estimates
of expenditure of time and money nee
Probably it is not by this intended to
convey the idea that the trustees will
adopt scheme Irrespective of cost, but
that they desire to secure expressions
of the highest conceptions of architect
ural art, that out of these there may
be evolved a scheme commensurate
with the probable outlay intended by
the donors Of the great building fund.
in the prospectus, has already assumed
the aggregate of $1,000, 000 and it is
understood that it will much exceed
that figure. So. then, here is notice
given to all the world that California
bids for the ideal university structures
the best that thought, skill and art can
evolve, and that there is to be limit of
neither time nor money upon this
thought and art. Architectural art
and science are to plan just as loftily
as is possible to them They are to lay
the lines for a symmetrical pile of
buildings that are to endure. not for
years but for all time; buildings that
are for the centuries and the ages, and
that are to embody the highest and
best there is in conception and execu-
ton of design and construction.
The scheme, we take it, contemplates
the crown and triumph of all that hui
mainly can possibly accomplish in the
present era Of civilization, with the his
tory and examples of all recorded time
behind it. For the first time, then, we
have the artist and the designer placed
before the fnancier in the effort to ap-
preach perfection in design and con-
struction of buildings. We are told IN
the prospectus that the inauguration OF
the scheme of new buildings for the
university by Mrs Hearst on these
