MOST SATISFACTORY RESULTS.

The Pneumo-Chemic sanitorium un- ider the charge of Dr. Woodruff, with Dr. Lisle of Columbus as consulting physician, is fully meeting the expec- tation of the friends of this treatment for pulmonary diseases. Twenty-two patients have been treated thus far in Phoenix. Two of them have been discharged, having no further need or treatment for lung trouble. Among the patients there is only one opinion in reference to the Pneumo-Chemlc treatment. They are all enthusiastic as to it's beneficial effects. They be- lieve as the result of actual test, that the best way, if not the only way, or making radical cure of consumption is to impregnate the air which the pa tient breathes with the medlcated vapor. This vapor used in the Pneu- mo-Chem1c treatment is claimed to pc fatal to the microbe known as bacillus tuberculosis, which is recognized as the cause of the disease, and the results in Phoenix seem to justify the claiHa- considerable number of those seek ing admission to a sanatorium for the cure of lung diseases in the early period of its life, are always cases In which the chances are very much against recovery.

FIGHT READY TO BEGIN.
Republican Candidates for the Council
 Nominated Last Night

The two political parties in the city are now lined up for the battle which will take place a week from next Tuesday. Mass meetings of the Sec ond and Fourth ward republicans were held last night for the nomination of candidates for the council The Sec ond ward meeting was held at Red ewill hall, and N. A. Morford was nominated without opposition. The Fourth ward republicans met at the city hall and renominated F. B. Moss. The ticket was made up, the proceed ings of the two meetings were certified by their respective rhairmen and were filed with the recorder at the latest possible moment, so that the campaign has been made as short as it well could be made. Republicans of both wards are confident of victory. In the first place they believe that there is republican majority in each and they also believe that the republicans were more energetic and successful in the rgistration.

Nor did the exercises at Woodward s Pavilion comprise the whole Of the cele- bration by any means. In the afternoon the County Leitrim Social Club and its friends held an independent celebration at the Chutes. consisting of literary ex- ercises and balloon ascension: In the evening the sky in that part or the city was roseate with the display of ire works.
 Special services in commemoration of the day were held in all the Catholic churches throughout the city. An enter tainment was also given in the evening in the basement of St. Teresa's Church on Tennessee street, between Butte and Solano, in honor of St Patrick. The pro- ceeds will go toward the improving of the church property.

Section 61. No person shall, in the City and County of San Francisco, keep or maintain, or become an inmate of or visit, or shall in any way contribute to the support of any place, house or room where opium is smoked, or where per sons assemble for the purpose of smok- ing opium, or inhaling the fumes of opium.
 Any person violating the provisions of this section shall be deemed guilty of a msdemeanor, and on conviction thereof be punished by fine not less than $250, or more than $1000 or by Imprisonment not less than three months, or more than six months, or by both fine and imprison- ment.
 This was amended by general order No. 2754, approved April 30 1894, which changes the penalty not exceeding $500, or by imprisonment in the County Jail not exceeding six months, or by both such fine and imprisonment
 This amendment was passed to con- form to the penalty provided in the State law, and thus prevent just such a ruling as Judge Wallace made. We found that ordinance satisfactory in every way and numerous convictions were secured under it. Last Novem- Der a Chinaman was convicted in this court of visiting an opium den, and appealed to the Superior Court. Judge Troutt refused to pass upon the case and it was transferred to Judge Wal

The Evenino Banquet.

The event of the evening was the banquet given at Delmonico's restau- rant on O'Farrell street by the Knights of St. Patrick. The banquet took place on the fifth floor and the apartments were fitted up in magnificent style, the finest of silken tapestry being draped in profusion, gold and silver gauge be- ing suspended from the chandeliers, the American shield and the banner bearing the minstrers harp aboundlng everywhere, while the choicest Of | floral emblemS in various designs filled the large hall with perfume. A most elaborate menu had been spread and time was had generally that all the Knights will point to with pride as the criterion of their annual celebrations. Frank T. Shea made the opening ad dress, referring eloquently to both Irish | and American historical events. He stated that the gathering was a fitting l testimonial to the fact that the organi- zation is as firm in spirit and enthusi- | aSm to-day as it was when founded | twenty-three years ago.
 Shea's remarks were followed by the reading of communications wishing the l organization well and expressing re- grets at their inability to attend the l festivities from Archbishop Riordan, | Senator George c. Perkins, Rev. P. c. | Yorke, Governor Budd and Senator | White. A caDle message was dlSO read | from John O'Leary, chairman of the '9S Centenary Association. Secretary T. J. Stanton read the messages. All were warmly cheered.
 Hon. w. w. Foote responded to the first toast of the evening, "The United States of America" He was glad to
 say that he was present and had to send no regrets. Referring to the facts l of American history the speaker voiced his belief that we are united nation.
 In the event of war with Spain over the Cuban question and the Maine in-
 cident Attorney Foote stated his con viction that all true Irish-Americans
 would be found in the vanguard,
 fighting for the country of their adop- ton.
 In turn eloquent responses to toasts were made as follows: ''The Day We Celebrate" Mayor Phelan; Civil and l Religious Liberty James R. Kelly; .Our Kindred Societies" John Reid; "Ninety-Eigh John R. Barrett.

rvs position that Judge Wallace was in error in holding that the SuperviS- ors could not pass an ordinance relat- ing to a matter covered by statute. The Chief cited a decision of the Supreme Court in the case of eX-parte Taylor (S7 Cal, page 9D, and approved in the case of ex-parte Rinaldo (25 Pac. Rep. page 260). Both cases were for violation of the sidewalk ordinance, and were ap- pealed from the lower court. The high CT court held that the Supervisors had the power to enact an ordinance al- ready covered by statute, provided such ordinance did not provide greater penalty than the State law.
 The Chief would not venture an opinion on whether the same ruling would apply to the opium ordinance, but he emphatically declared that as matters now stood it was impossible to secure a conviction. He too dwelt upon the absurdity of the State act, but thought the best plan would be for the Legislature to amend it.
 Police Commissioners Alvord and Tobin had read the article in yes terday's Call showing the rapid spread of the vice in this city and the help lessneSS of the police to check 1t, but neither was aware that this was due to a State law. Both gentlemen ex- pressed a determination to bring the matter up at the next meeting of the board and if possible take steps to remedy the evil.

In an oral opinion delivered last No vember, Superior Judge Wallace eff fectually checked all efforts on the part of the police to put a stop to the opium smoking evil in this city. That the opinion would be reversed by the Su- preme Court were that body called on to pass judgment upon it is the pre- vailing belief, but so far no steps have been taken looking to that end. In consequence opium dens flourish in many sections of the city, as shown in yesterdays Call, while, as Sergeant Martin stated in an interview, the po- lice are powerless to suppress them.
 Frank G. Drury, assistant prosecut- ing attorney of Police Court No 8, yes terday explained the situation to a Call reporter in detail. Mr Drury has pros ecuted many opium cases, and Is thor oughly conversant with the law on the subject, both State and municipal.
 Up to last November said Mir Drury, arrests for opium smoking were made under general order No. 15S7, passed by the Board of Supervisors in 1890, which reads as follows:

 side Trade.

M. shiraishi manager of the Toyo Ki- sen Kwai Sha, or in other words the
 Oriental Steamship Company, Is in this city arranging for an agency to be placed in some city on this coast. At the Pal ace Hotel last evening he stated that the company consisted of some of the most prominent merchants in Japan, and that it was the intention of the Organiza- ton to run a line of steamers between Hongkong, Shanghai, Nagasah, Kobe, Yokohama, Honolulu and San Francisco. Three steamers, which will be of 5000 tons displacement each and of speed of 171a knots, are at the present time under course of construction at Newcastle and Sunderland, and it is supposed the line will be in running order by October next.
 The steamers have already been named the Nippon Maru, America Maru and Hongkong Maru, and it is stated by
 Shiraishi that when completed they will be the best-equipped vessels afoat in the transpacific trade. The line of steamers will run in competition WILL the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, and the Japan csc are of the opinion that the new line will tend to increase American trade.
 Shiraishi will leave this evening for New York city, and after few days stay there will proceed to the principal cities in Europe, where agencies will be established. The principal stockholders in the company are said to be S. Asano, president, and A. Shibusawa and R. Hara, who are directors in the companss

 surditv ever placed upon a statute bool, and if Judge Wallace is correct in his opinion thefirs thing the Legs 1atIre should do when it meets IS to repeal it. It reads as follows:
 Section BOT, Penal Code--Every person who opens or maintains tob resorted to py other persons, any place where opium, or o,I1 of is Dreparations, is sold or given away. to be smoked at such place; anu ally person who at such place sells or glves away any opium % or it's g sald bprWse prvRae used and every person who visits or resorts to any such place for the purpose or smoking opium or 1ts sa1u prep.dtI snd anon mon conviction thereof shall be punished Dy a fine not exceeding $500, or by 1mprlson- ment in the County Jail not exceeolng SIX months, or by both such fine and im- prisonment.

Why, two men might go into an opium den and each pur- chase opium before the eyes of an of11- cer and iuggle it so that he could not fell which lot each had bought. Then they could smoke the stuff secure rom arrest. Or one could buy opium ana go to the house next door and smoke hlm- self insane without fear of pumshment.
 "Here. this will show you what we have to prove under the State law, and MT. Drury produced blank com ,1oin+ which read in part as fOllOWS:

 .The complaints we formerly used merely alleged that: Where opium was then and there smoked and where persons had assembled for the pur- pose of smoking opium and inhaling the fumes of opium
 But. in my judgment, the opinion of Judge Wallace would not hold be- fore the Supreme Court, and the sim plest course to pursue would be for the police to make an arrest under the municipal ordinance and test it before that court. I base my opinion on a decision of the Supreme Court on the gambling ordinance, which makes it a misdemeanor to keep, maintain or visit any place where gambling is con- ducted There is also a State law on gambling, which provides that any person is guilty of a misdemeanor who shall visit a place where any game of chance is dealt played or carried on. Here is an instance where the State

and city have legislated on the same subject, yet convictions are secured un- der the local act right along and It's validity cannot be questioned. I re- gard them as parallel cases and can not see upon what ground Judge Wal lace based his opinion.
 "If the police want to put stop to opium smoking let them make test case, and if the Supreme Court sustains the local order that is sufficient to break up the dens. If it agrees with Judge Wallace then nothing can be done until the State law is amended or repealed, for every ordinance on the subject passed by the Supervisors would be invalid"
 Chief of Police Lees had considerable to say about the impossibility of se- curing convictions under the State law, and materially strengthened MT. Dru-
