the business men of the place that all such
signs will have to be removed. The Sec

"1t shall be unlawful for any person to
suspend or place across any sidewalk.

any signboard, framework cloth or other
substance bearing letters. figures or de-

Sec. Of the ordinance provides for the
removal of all such signs within thirty days

to wage war against the signs.

RAILROAD LANDS
A Question of Overlapping Grants Is
Decided


WASHINGTON Oct. 1s.-The Sill
preme Court has rendered an opinion
against the railway company in the case
of the Southern Pacific Company VS..
the United States, brought here from
the Circuit Court from the Ninth Cir
cult.
The case involved about 700, 900 acres
Of land in Southern California, and grew
out Of the fact that the forfeited land
grant of the Atlantic and Pacific Rail-
road Company was overlapped, to some
extent by lands claimed under the gov
ernment grant by the Southern Pacific.
The Atlantic and Pacific Company
originally claimed the lands in contro-
versy, and its original maps located
along the line those lands accepted by
the Land Office, but Congress declared
the LANDS forfeited, and thereupon the
Southern Pacific, whose grant over
Tapped that of the Atlantic and Pacific,
set up title to the lands.
The Circuit Court, however, decided
against the Southern Pacific, and the
Supreme Court today affirmed that de-
cision so far as concerns the railroad
company, but remanded to the lower
court for decision the case of about 200
persons who purchased part of the lands
from the railroad company.

rorstantinople, May l3.-The foreign Ambas-
..aors held another conference to-day. after
hitch Baron de Calico. the Austro Hungarian
ambassador. called upon Tewfk Pacha, the
turkish Minister of Foreign Affairs, and re-
,swed the proposal of an armistice which was
presented yesterday. The opinion is general In
turkish circles that until the occupation Of Do
uoko. which is momentarily expected. the Porte
cannot grant an armistice.
London May lathe correspondent Of THE
Standard" at Constant!nople says:
"Edhem Pacha has telegraphed to the Porte
that he is quite certain Of being able to capture
pomoko and the Greek Army as well. and in re-
Spouse pressing orders have been sent to the
Turkish stan to go ahead with the greatest
energy. regardless of diplomacy.
General military preparations continue here
on the largest SCALE"
A dispatch to The Times" from Athens con-
firms the report that the inaction of the Turkish
Army is due to the intervention Of Russia.
The situation at the scene Of hostilities appears
TO be that Turkey is determined to occupy Do
noko before consenting to an armistice, and that
Greece is convinced of the impossibility Of hold
ing out against the serious attack which Edhem
Pacha is preparing TO deliver.
II has been decided TO evacuate Domoko and
10 fall back upon the old frontier. This plan
will probably be carried out tomorrow II II has
not already been carried out. and thus the way
will be opened for peace negotiations.

ING HER HUSBANDS BODY ON BOARD.

THE COFFIN LABELLED ARTHUR scRoGds'
DROWNED AT SEA-" LAY FOR TWO DAYS AT

BURIAL WAS TO BE IN ENGLAND.
Mrs. Arthur Scroggs. her daughter Ena, ana
q governess, Miss Scoville, are speeding to Eu-
rope on the American Line steamship ST LOUIS
for Southampton. They left this port yesterday.
Mrs. Scroggs believing that the body OF ner
sailor husband was in the forehold of the vessel.
AS matter Of fact, 1t Is not Sealed In metal
lie coffin, the body lies in the Morgue ana
will probably be buried In day in Pot
ters Field.
Arthur Scroggs thirty years old, who was
owner and master of the steamship Spinster,
was I'm sight Of land with fair breeze and GOOD
weather several weeks ago. Then huge wave
suddenly deluged the decks Of his vessel. The
young captain was at the wheel at the time' ana
was swept overheard.
The vessel was stopped and an attempt made to
rescue him, but after an hours inefectual effort
the search had to be abandoned and the vessel
started it's way Victoria. British Columbia
When off Shocks Harbor the body was finally
recovered and taken to Victoria.
There Charles Hangood, an undertaken, placed
the body in metallic coffin for shipment 10
England, an order having been obtained from
Ernst Compton, the Coroner Mrs. Scroggs
wanted the body sent to England, as that was
her husbands home, and 1t appears that she
understood that the undertaken would give olrec'
lions to have the body shipped via New YORK
through to England.
There was some misunderstanding, however
The undertaken only billed the body to New
York and it arrived at the Grand central Sta-
ton last Monday and after remaining mere
for two days it was transferred to the Morgue;;
Mrs Scroggs thinking her instructions would
be obeyed, engaged passage on the 81 Louis oy
a telegram from Chicago. and she gave no
thought to the transfer OF the body from the
railroad to the steamship 80
Because Of the misunderstanding there VIII
be a number Of complications, undoubtedly, and
the final disposition OF the body is a question TO
be determined by the future.
The only means Of identifying the body was
by a plate on the coffin bearing the inscription:
