GROOM IS BLACKLISTED. Eastern Pugilists Will Not Fight Under the Auspices of the
 Natinna1 C1J1h

Manager Groom of the National Attn letic Club seems to be in very bad odor with the pugilists who reside on the eastern side of the big mountains.
 After the contest between Mcconnell and McKeever the senior manager of the National Club, who is supposed to be a diplomat in his own peculiar way, en- deavored to arrange N meeting between the winner and clever Tom Tracey, which contest should attract more than ordinary attention.
 Alex Greggains, who is looking after the interests of Mcconnell, did not give much attention to the nicely worded promises of MT Groom, but on the contrary he sought Billy Kennedy of the Olympic Club and asked if contest between Mcconnell and Tom Tracey could be held under the auspices of the Olympic. Kennedy replied that if he could make arrangements with Tracey or his manager, Al Smith, a bout might possibly be consummated.
 Smith, on being interviewed, telegraphed to Tracey at Chicago and received the following reply
 Having heard from my friend, Tom Ryan, that Groom is such a good and fair-minded man in every respect, I pre- fer to fight in some other club where less soft soap Is used on pugilists. If you can arrange a match for me in any club out side of the National I will gladly consent

CLUNIE GETS
 4 SETBACK Judge Morrow Enjoins the Commissioner. HIS DISCRETION INDISCREET NOT LAWFUL TO DECLARE THE
 BONDS INVALID. His Threat Was Made Without the Limits of His Authority and Must Not Be Carried
 Out.
NOT LAWFUL TO DECLARE THE
 BONDS INVALID.

Insurance Commissioner Clunie was yes- terday restrained from carrying out his threat to declare invalid the bonds of the foreign insurance companies operating In this State and from forfeiting their cer- tifcates.
 The decision was rendered by United States Circuit Judge Morrow in the cases of siXty-two companies against the Com missioner. After giving a history of the case with the progress of litigation on both sides the opinion concludes:
 "The duty of the Commissioner is part ly ministerial and partly discretionary. With respect to the performance of those duties in which he exercises his discre- view his judgment or restrain his action, but the discretion he may thus exercise must be legal discretion and within the limitations of his authority.
 'He cannot act arbitrarily or capri ciously or in disregard of all the rules of law, and when he is called upon by a court to answer a charge that his con- duct is illegal, oppressive and injurious he should be able to present such facts as will clearly show that he is acting un- der authority and within the Jurisdiction of his office. It is true the defendant al leges in his affidavit that in rejecting the bonds offered and rendered by the to be insufficient and invalid he did so after an examination and in vestigation into the matter in the exercise of the discretion conferred upon him by law, but from the other facts al legged by the complainants and not denied | by the defendant this allegation appears to be in the nature of an opinion which the defendant himself formed as to the character of his own acts in the prem ises.
 "That there have been evils in the ad- ministraton of the insurance law may be admitted; that the defendant believes il to be his duty to make the office of Com missioner efficient and of substantial ben. eft to the public may be also conceded but it does not follow that he may adopt any course or pursue any method that will accomplish the purpose that he has in view. The law furnishes the guide an6 regulates the performance of official con duct and will be construed as conferrine those powers only which are expressed | imposed or necessarily employed. (Me- 1 chem on Public Officers, section 51.) A ! temporary injunction will issue in ac- cordance with this opinion"

ROBBED BY A SOLDIER.
A Miner From Montana Sought
 Friends and Fell in With a Thief.

PECULIAR ACTS
 OF JUDGE LOW
CASE OF ATTORNEY MAHONEY
 NOT YET DISPOSED OF.
Although Convicted Twelve Days Ago by a Jury the Judge Has Not
 Yet Imposed Sentence.

Judge Low appears to be as change able as the wind. One day he decides upon certain course and the next day he is moved to go on an entirely differ ent tack
 The case of Attorney W. IT. Mahoney Is an apt Illustration. Mahoney was ar rested on June by Policeman w. J. Smith for obstructing street crossing. The case was tried by a jury on June 16 and Mahoney was convicted and ordered to appear for sentence June IS. That day Mahoney's attorney moved for a new trial, an. extraordinary proceeding after conviction by a jury, and the Judge granted the motion, continuing the case till June % When the case was then called the Judge stated that he intended to dismiss 1t, as the arresting officer and Mahoney had shaken hands, but later he changed his mind and again continued IL till last Saturday.
 Saturday came and the Judge vacated the order for new trial and ordered Ma honey to appear for sentence. As neither Mahoney nor his attorney could be found another continuance was ordered until yesterday. When the case was called yesterday a new attorney appeared for Mahoney and he said he was not famil- far with the facts In the case and, be sides, as his client had not been informed of the order to vacate the order for a new trial he asked for further continu- ance till Thursday to enable him to be in a position to insist upon the motion foi a new trial being granted The Judge granted the continuance.
 It is nearly a month since Mahoney was arrested and twelve days since he was tried and convicted, and still he is not sentenced and does not take the trouble to appear in court, as he Is out on his own recogniZance. There is keen specu- lation in the City Hall as to what will be the final disposition of the case after sc many twistings and turnings.

He has burned 1t all and had stayed at the sick and irnpoverished, and was sent to inc San Francisco County Hospital. He there learned that he had consumption, and he decided that he might as well de now as later. He had been drinking heavily. and tonight, when the boat was about half way across the bay, he took off his overcoat and hat and threw them overheard, jumping after them. lie was turned over to the police on this side. He declares he will do the same thing again as soon as he is set at liberty
