TRACKS TORN UP.
The Horse-Car Rails Removed From Market Street Between Sixth
 and Eiehth

A gang of sixty city workmen, under direction of Superintendent Ambrose, be- gan work early yesterday morning tear ing up the horsecar tracks on Market street, between Sixth and Eighth, and within an hour the work was completed without interference from the streetcar company.
 The exclusive announcement in The Call yesterday that the tracks would be torn up by the city authorities attracted quite a crowd of spectators to the scene with the expectation that trouble might oc- cur. but they were doomed to disappoint- ment. Superintendent Lynch, of the street railway company, was present, but made no effort to stop the work. On Monday the old rails will be stored in the corporation yard as fitting finale to the end of the horsecar system on Market street.
 That the streetcar company proposes to fight for damages in the courts Is evil denced by a communication addressed yesterday to the Board of Supervisors, stating in substance that the Market street corporation has an unexpired fran chise for operating said tracks and de- clines to remove. or permit their removal. Notice is served that suits for damages will follow action by the city in remov- ing the tracks.

CHIEF LEES ARMS TIED. While He Is Restrained Ferdinau
 Will Bury Himself.

While the arms of Chief Lees and his men are tied. and their interference prohibited by a temporary writ of in junction issued by Judge Daingerfeld last week, Albert Ferdinan will bury himself alive in a lot he has selected in which to lie him down, on Market street, near Larkin. The grave will close over the daring hypnotic subject this after noon at o'clock, unless the Chief de- cides to risk the wrath of the court and stop the performance.
 Friday Judge Seawell heard argument on behalf of the Chief to dissolve the injunction issued by Judge Daingerfield, but will not decide the case until Tues day. This fact interferes with the pro gramme of Ferdinan, and, acting under the advice of his counsel, he has de- cided to go into the grave while Judge Daingerfields order is still in force. In consequence. If Judge Seawell dissolves the injunction next Tuesday, Lees and his men will have to dig up the sleeper and restore him to the bosom of his family

PECTED TO BRING IN AMPLE REVENUE.

Washington. Aug. 1s--It is the opinion Of the
officials Of the Treasury that there VIII be no

with bringing the extraordinary war expenditures

the early future. and with the power conferred

the extent Of 100000 II required, any further
resort to bond issues seems a most remote prob
ability This view Is reinforced by the fact that
with the operation of the new excise and stamp

conditions. This increase in revenue should and
