TERMS OF COUNTY OFFICERS.
Officials Must Be Remunerated for Services
Until Their Successors Take
CHARGE.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Feb. 26.-The
Supreme Court has finally determined the
much-mooted question concerning the pay
OF ex-county officers for extra days at the
expiration of their terms before their sue
cessors came into Office. The case was
entitled Henry G. Dillon, ex-District At
tornev, respondent. VS.. Charles G. Blck-
nell, Auditor of Los Angeles County,
appellant and the appeal was taken from
q judgment by Superior Judge Shaw to
the effect that Dillon was entitled TO pay
Tor the extra days served. The Supre me
Court affirmed the judgment OF the lower
court.
Section 221 of the county government
act" says the decision, requires the Au-
ditor to draw his warrant on the first
Monday OF the month in which the term
OF otfic expires, yet 1t NAV happen that
the first Monday in January is the first
day of January, and the term of the in
cum bent does not in that case expire until
the second Monday.
Indeed, under the statute fixing the
commencement and termination of the
terms OF county officers 1T can never hap
pen that the term consists precisely of
two years, and therefore the provision fix
ing the compensation at an annual sum
should be construed as fixing the rate of
com pensation 10 be paid for the time the
officer actually serves. The judgment
appealed from should be affirmed"

LAND RESERVATION PROTEST.
Commercial Club of Omaha Takes Strong
Ground Against Recent Order
bI The President

OMAHA, NEBR,, Feb. .26.-The Com
mercial Club, al special meeting to-day,
passed these resolutions, which were i'm
medlateIy telegraphed to Was hington:
The Commercial Club of the City of Omaha
pelng interested in the growth and develop
ment OF The trans Mississippi country, and
particularly the State OF Nebraska, is greatly
alarmed at the promulgation of an executive
oruer by the President OF the United States by
which p, 600 600 acres of land in the North
west are reserved for exploration, settlement,
mineral development and filing, and railroad
construction. CT these p, 900 600 acres of
!and-which, added to the II ,000, 600 acres of
Land heretofore reserved, makes nearly 40
are in the State of Wyoming and the Black
Hills section OF South Dakota, which country
is directly tributary to the State of Nebraska,
ana Is one OF the sections largely supplied by
agricultural products of this State. In view of
the alarming and disastrous results TO follow
from this executive order, it is
Resolved, That while in sympathy with an y
legitimate effort 10 protect the forests of the
public domain we believe that this sweeping
order will have no such result, but by making
the so-calied timber country an uninhabited
waste will increase the dan ger of the destruc-
ton of the forests by fire; and in view of the
TACT That large sections OF these proposed res
eryations are now settled by agriculturalists is
and miners, whose indus stries must cease il
this executive order shall continue in opera
Tlon, We call upon our Senators and Represent Z
atlves IN Congress by proper legislation to
annul such order, believing that the present
stringent laws are sufficient il enforced to
fully protect timber on the public domain.
The Commercial Club also adopted a
form OF protest and sent 1t to Lincoln this
afternoon with the request that the State
Legislature adopt it at once.
The business men of Lead, S. D., held
an indignation meeting last night similar
to that held at Deadwood. The South Da-
kota Legislature will be asked to memorl-
alize Congress relative to the matter.

LIVELY WARFARE
IN THE PHILIPPINES ,
Rebels Make a Raid on the
Barracks at Manila
and Get Arms.
Battles in Which Spanish Gene
rails Report the Usual
Victories
Prepar ations for an Attack on linus
Which May Decid, the
Campaign.

NEW YORK, N. Y, Feb. 27.-A special
cablegram to the Herald from Manila
says: Yesterday afternoon at $3.50 o'clock
a group of rebels entered the barracks of
the town, killing the lieutenant and ser
geant in the barracks along with the cap
tain of the fort custom-house of Manila
city. They then escaped, taking with
them arms and ammunition.
They ran through the streets of Tondo
pursued by armed police, who fired on
them, the rebels returning the fire.
The rebels escaped clear out of the
suburbs, through Tondo, quarter where
the alarm was general. The shops and
establishments were closed for fear of
complications.
Ill the suburbs of Manila the rebels
were pursued. Many have been made
prisoners or killed.
General La Chambre captured the town
of Perez dos Marinas Thursday after eight
hours hard fighting. The rebels made
desperate resistance. The losses are enor-
NOUS and eighty to ninety Spaniards
were killed.
The rebels fed on the entrance of the
Spaniards.
Some fortified themselves in the con-
vent and this was cannonaded with terrible
carnage. The victory is important as it
brings the forces of General La Chambre
within nine miles of linus.
All the interest of the campaign centcrs
in the attack on linus. General Polaviejs
will attack it from the north and General
La Cbambre from the south.

cR0cKER'S SOUTHERN MISSION
San DiegaHs Believe That Other Than
Masonic Matters Occupied His
Affe6fjon

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Feb. 26-San
Diego people are considerably eIated over
the visit of Colonel Charles F. Crocker,
vice-pres ident of the Southern Pacific
Company, to that city on Wednesday
evening last. They see in it mysterious
purpose on the part of the Southern Pa
cific Company, in the event that Santa
Monica should not be chosen as the deep
'harbor site, to shift the business of the
company from Port Los Angeles 10 San
Diego, where there is undeniably a good
natural harbor. 1t is the favorite theory
of San Diegans that Huntington will
build directly across the desert from San
Diego to Yuma, and give Los Angeles the
by altogether on trans-Pacific business.
1t has beer reiterated, however, that
Colonel Crocker's trip to Southern Cali
fornis is not involved in mystery at all,
except as the affairs of Masonry are .mys-
.terious. The colonel is grand master Of
the Grand ConsisIory of California, Scot
tish Rite Masons, and he is in Southern
California to make official and fraternal
visits to he brethren OF that rite in this
part of the State. He is accompanied by
Inspector General w. Frank Pierce of the
Grand Consistory, and Charles l.. Patton,
past grand master. Their visit to San
Diego was for the purpose of instituting a
evening of their arrival there leaving at
an early hour the following morning for
this city.
Last evening these gentlemen visited
Los Angeles Commandery of Knights
Templar in the Masonic Temple and wit
messed the ceremony of the Order of the
Temple, conferred by Eminent Com.
mander Frank RAIDER, and an inspection
of the commapdery by Eminent Sir Addi-
son Morgan district inspector Amono
other distinguished Templars present
were: Grand Generalissimo r. NJ. Powers
OF San Diego, DR.. Thomas Flint, grand
high priest of Royal Arch Masons; Emf
nent Sir Jesse B. Fuller of MarysvilIe and
Past Grand Commander Henry Sayre
Orme and others.
Colonel Crocker's car was attached to a
train for the North to-day. He and the
gentlemen with him expressed great
pleasure at the fraternal reception which
they had enjoyed while in Southern Cali
fornia.

SAN PEDRO,s CHANCES.

Senator Whites Mid Rebwke to Friends
of the Harbor.
WASHINGTON, D. c.. Feb. 26-Sen-
ator White said to The CALL correspond
ent tonight:
''The report telegraphed from Los An
geles to the effect that ! have given
assurances to friends that a majority OF
the com mmission had decided to recon-
mend San Pedro for the deep harbor is
putting it rather too strongly.
II believe that San Pedro will be chosen
on It's merits, but as yet no one has any
definite Information on the subject, for as
yet the commission has not even COM
menced TO formulate its reports"
Judge Mcguire said tonight: ~ think
San Pedro will be selected as the site, but
the report of the commission will not be
made for several weeks yet. / understand
that 1t will be made 10 the new Secretary
OF War. In the absence of any definite in
formation l think 1t would be unwise for
any real-estate spectators to invest money
at either plac ce."

CHICAGO, ILL., Feb. 26-"Dr." Fred
Rutland, who claims to be graduate of the
College of Science, Los Angeles, CAL, the
California State Therapeutical College
and the Medical University of Ohio, was
arrested to-day by postal inspectors on
the charge of using the mails for fraudu-
lent purposes. He will be given a hear

Rutland has been operating the "Wis-

the inspectors allege is bogus diploma

have in their possession a book of names,
addresses and classes of degrees conferred
showing that 907 persons in every State
Cf the Union, Mexico, Canada, India and
France, have received diplomas comforting
the degrees of doctor of medicine, phar-

papers from day to day since the election
II seems to have escaped general notice
that Hon. Whitelaw Reid of the New
ork Tribune has always been a great
1avorlte OF the President-elect for some
suitable and conspicuous recognition.
MT. Reid's selection for place in the
Saolnet or foreign en- bassy at-his choice
mas been until recently under Major Nc
hiniey.s careful and most cordial con-
sideration.
The relations between the two gentle.
men nave long been intimate, but Mr..
.held and his friends think it would be i'm
prudent for him TO risk the confinement
OF ofhcial work until his health is abso-
Iutely restored, and hence have advised
against that course
Major Mckinley within the last fort
night hnally and reluctantly gave up the
idea or appointing Mr.. Reid and there
upon wrote him letter expressive both
OF his regret ana appreciation and of
the deep regret that Cor the present a.
least he could not have the advantage of
MS association and cooperation in the
affairs OF the administration.
Major Mckinley is improving rapidly in
health. He took long walk to-day and
did considerable work.
