BusH-sTREET OOBBLEs.

An Effort TO Be Made by the Property
Owners for improvements.
The property-owners on the line OF
Bush street between Kearny ana van
Ness avenue will make another effort 10
have that street bituminized.
1t is claimed that during the past talrty-
five years nothing has been done to I'M
prove the condition OF this thoroughfare
at its eastern end, and that the round
headed cobbIestones that were put down
in the sand have. been permitted to re-
main there except in such places as the
Sutter-street Railway Company displaced
them to put down It's single ghost track,
the rails of which are permitted to still
stand there, q terror to transfers. This
is noticeably so on the block between
Stockton and Powell, where the entire
block is almost impossible by reason OF
rutholes and the Objectionable rails.
To remedy this the property-ownersw Will
petition the Board of Supervisors TO re-
pave the entire street between the points
mentioned.
A similar effort was made about six
years ago by some of the largest land
owners on the street, but it fell through
at that lime because OF the litigatlO then
going on between the City authorities and
the railroad company. But now it is said
that cloud has been removed in favor OF
the people and against the company.
Hence another effort will be made and as
they trust will bear bette. fruit
Bush street, the residents and property
owners claim, has the easiest grade OF any
of the hill streets In the City. There is,

said, land by the time l return from
Washington next week one of them may
be in shape for definite action. OF course,
the pros pective purchasers want the best
bargain pos ,ibla. Ii the offers are not
raised it is likely that some of the direc-
tors will underwrite the deal'on their own
account in order to escape the heavy sac
ritice they will be called upon to make if
that offer should be accepted. 1t is just
possible that the institution will be wholly
recognized and continued"
At the bank, 104 Washington street, lit
tie money is beng paid out on account, of
the ninety-day notice required before de-
posts can be withdrawn. The rule is re-
Taxed only TO people who are in sore need
OF their money. Deposits have dropped
to almost nothing. 1t is said that the
bank has reserve fund of % per cent of
its deposits, but while the other savings
banks have removed the ninety-day
notice, it has not been thought advisable
to do so at the Dime Savings Bank on &C.
count of the impending change In Its
affairs.
The institution which seems destined
soon to pass out of existence was organ
lied in 1869 as the Bank of Cairo. Three
years later it was removed to Chicago and
renamed the Dime Savings Bank. 1t has
remained continuously in business here
ever since.

limitation being that they shall require no
branch not taught in the public schools or
universities of the State.
Having satisfied the trustees in prelimi-
nary matters the applicant must devote
four years to the study of the Jaw. Each
present himself for q careful oral and
written examination by the trustees, and
not until the fourth years examination is
passed satisfactorily is he granted a
license.
1t is specially provided that this shall
not apply to graduates of Hastings College
OF the Law, who are to be admitted to
practlce upon the completion of The course
as heretofore.
The Supreme Court, it is provided, shall
nave an appellate jurisdiction over the
courts OF discipline In cases where the
speclal court has permanently remanded
a judicial officer from office or the trus-
tees had permanently disqualified an at
torney or refused to admit an applicant.
The supreme Court may, on its own mo-
ton or on application, call for the records
in the case, and review and pass upon the
proceedings. This right of review, how
ever, must be exercised within thirty days
of the original Judgment.
The long cherished am bition of many
members OF the bar for a bipartisan
judiciary is voiced in this proposed amend
HleHt. tiS proNiUeQ mat Inc nomination
of candidates for judicial positions must
be by petition and no party designation
shall appear upon the official ballot for
such positions. This provision does not
apply TO the. election of Justices of the
Peace in townships having less than three
thousand inhabitants.
The Justices of the Supreme Court and
of the district courts of appeal are TO re-
ceive the same salary, $4,000 year. The
courts of discipline are to receive per
diem, the same as paid to mem bers of the
Legislature, for the time actually and
necessarily employed. Other salaries re-
main as at present.
A very forcible inducement is held out
to Judges to be prompt in rendering their
decisions by provision that no Justice OF
the Supreme Court shall be allowed 10
draw his monthly salary until he has
made an affidavit that no cause in his
court remains undecided which has been
submitted for more than sixty days, and
Justices of the District Court must not
have had any case pending for more than
thirty days. Inability to make such atfi-
davits will work forfeiture OF salary.
There are numerous other points OF
more or less interest to the bar involved
in the amendment, which is rather vol
luminous.

WILL NOT RESIGN.
The Chinese Vice-Consul States That
He Will Not Leave the Diplo-
matte ssrvice.

maLlC SerVlce'
An article appeared in an evening paper
yesterday that caused King Owyang, Chi
nese Vice-C Consul, some amusement and
not little annoyance. The article In
question stated that Mr.. King had re-
signed from the Chinese diplomatic SER
vice because of insufficient salary, and
that he would go in business somewhere
in this country
The Vice Consul, when interv, ewed re-
garding the matter last night, stated that
he had not resigned, he was not dissatis-
fed with his salary and had no intention
of going into any other business.
"Some time last year / rendered my
RESIGNATION to the Minister" said he. "but
IL was not accepted, and that settled the
iished article are incorrect"
This will be satisfactory news to the
citizens of this City as we'll as TO the better
class of Chinese here, as King Owvang is
man that could not well be replaced in the
Chinese consulate here. He is not only
graduate OF Yale, but is one of the most
Intelligent men in the imperial diplo-
matte service.
His wife is a native of Grass Valley, and
was given all the advantages OF American
education and association by her Chinese
parents till she is as much California
girl as any native daughter in the State.
Mrs. King stated last evening over the
telephone that the resignation" story
was wholly untrue.
1T is untrue, because l never neard OF
it." said she, "and as am Mrs. King, Mr..
King would have told me first of all. .
And the Chinese lady spoke just as
plainly and just as emphatically as
any one of her American sisters would
have done under like circumstances.

CHICAGO, ILL, Jan. 9.-According to a

elusive savings bank in Chicago, doubt
less will go out of existence before the
expiration of the ninety-day notice which
has been required on deposits since the

Edwin Walker, the attorney represent

yesterday that only two things were ab-

would not lose dollar in the institution.
The second was that it would not be con-
tinued as it had been.
