 The police were immediately notified and thorough search of the neigh borhood was made for the two robbers, but no trace of them could be found. Davies and the bartender were able to give a good description of them, and the detectives who have been detailed on the case expect to have no difficult ty in capturing them.
 A portion of the sandbag Is in the hands of the police. which they think may help them in locating the two robbers.
 The robbers had been watching the place for over an hour, as they were seen by several people standing on the opposite corner, apparently waiting the chance when the saloon was empty of customers.
 'I feel sure" said Davies yesterday, that the robbers were familiat with the interior of the saloon, and they ex- pected that the bartender would be alone, as I don't stay so long as a rule. The thing happened so quickly that I had scarcely time to realize what it was all about when it was over.
 "The men were not masked, and that shows that they were either novices in the business or strangers in the city. I have lump on my cheek, and I suppose I must have been struck on the face also by one of the robbers"

THE MASTER HoRSESHoERS.
Dey Adopt q New Constitution
 and Set of Bylaws.

me Master Horseshoers' Association is now getting to be a solid, substantial hAuure' and at last nights meeting the MoIh or adopting a constitution and set oI bylaws was commenced.
 inc objects of the organization as stat GU Ill the preamble, are to rescue our .Idue rom the conditions into which it hds lallen; to raise ourselves in society to "4iicH we as mechanics, are justly en- 'itIeu' 10 place ourselves on a founda- % cioIi suIhclently strong to secure us from iuI Ither encroachments, and to elevate our lhuustry in the city and county of odn francisco. To the consummation of sucn desirable objects We do pledge our. senneS to unceasing effort
 1hS bylaws provide that a candidate for HiemDershlp must be practical me chanlc, or good moral character and a master horseshoer, and that any member who snail become a habitual drunkard or pe suuty or any acts whereby he may be punished Tn court of justice, or defraud any member of the association shall be expelled.
 The committee which has been quietly investigating the shop at the Presidio rs ported that the shoeing of horses for out Slde parties by Government blacksmiths was stlll going on, and that when they sought an interview with the authorities they Were refused an audience An eff Iort will be made to have this evil abated through other sources

contract by the duty imposed on the commission to apply what is subtract ed in the one instance by the annul- ment or change of a specification to what is deemed to be expedient in the other under a new specification The new specifications are drawn on the basis of average cost for materials as specified in the original contract cov- ering the entire structure. Thus it will be seen the architect and commission are given requisite latitude for per fecting the work, while the contractor is bound to suffer no material loss on account of curtailment of contract after he has agreed to complete the work for a specific sum.
 MT. O'Sullivans alleged violation of the plans consists of eighteen items. The architects records show that he is in fault as to each and every one. Nor are the several amounts provided for in the several specifications correct. The facts are proved in detail to be as fol- lows:
 '1 Cast iron base in the three floors el,od of the T9tunda and grand staircaseo marble at a cost of s34OO.
 ''2 Sixteen iron columns, supporting lantern mounting inner glass dome $20O." Changed to steel at a cost of $2OO

ROBBERS HADTO RETREAT.
Police Notified of the Affair, but Sc Far No Arrests Have Been
 Made.

One of the boldest and most desper- ate attempts at robbery every record ed in this city was committed early yesterday morning in the saloon owned by W. H. Davies on the corner of Haight and Cough streets, known as "Burke's old saloon."
 About o'clock two men entered the saloon and asked for Fred Hanson, the bartender, who was alone at the bar, for two glasses of whisky Hanson served them, and after drinking the li- quor one of the men asked to be shown the toilet room. Hanson directed him to 1t, and after he left the other man asked to be allowed to use the tele- phone.
 The saloon extends from Market street through to Rose avenue, a pas sage extending through from the bar with boxes on each side. About the center of the boxes is the telephone room. Hanson told the man that the proprietor was in the telephone room, but he would go with him to ask him to allow the stranger to use the instru- ment They went together, and on reaching the telephone room MT. Da- vies was leaning back on a chair doz-
 
 man wants to use the telephone" He had scarcely got the words out of his mouth when the stranger grabbed hold of him and threw him into the room against Davies. Hanson recovered himself immediately and Jumped for the stranger, divining his intention
 There was a fierce struggle between the two men and the stranger all the time attempted to use a revolver which he had hurriedly drawn from his pocket. In the struggle the revolver fell from his hand and alighted at Da- vies' feet who had not up to this time comprehended distinctly what was go- ing on. He remarked, Whats this ?" as he stopped to pick up the revolver. The other robber had by this time made his appearance. and as Davies stopped he was struck a violent blow over the head with a sandbag. The force of the blow burst the sandbag and Davies was covered with sand and SlungShot. He was stunned for a moment and then he fully realized that the two men were intending to rob the cash register and himself
 He made for the sand bagger and meantime the bartender had succeed ed in throwing his antagonist down and was holding onto him like grim death. Before Davies could tackle his man he had turned upon Hanson and thrown off the robber who jumped to his feet and rushed out of the side door leading to Cough street The second robber rushed along the passage way into the saloon, closely pursued by Da- vies and the bartender. Each seized bottle and made for the robber who had by this time reached the exit into Market street. He turned around at
