THE VOLUNTEERS
IN FRISCO.

From a letter written to his
mother by Jesse L. Rains we
are permitted to make the
following extracts:
SAN Francisco, May "a.
We have been in San Fran
cisco for nearly three days
now, as we got here Sunday
morning and it is now Tues
day. | have just come in
from the Golden Gate park,
which is just across the street
from where we are camped.
The view from the park to-
ward the camp is grand. The
tents of the volunteers make a
good sized city. There are
nearly six thousand of us
camped together. In our COM
pany there are four in each
tent, and suppose the other
companies average the same
number of men to each tent.
The volunteers from Mime
sofa, Utah and Idaho are
camped in this fiat just north
of the park. The rest of the
volunteers (there were twelve
thousand soldiers here until a
day or SO. ago. are camped
about a mile from us, in a
place called the Preside. Most
of the volunteers from Califor'
MIA and Oregon have sailed
since we came here for the
Philippines. We will not &C
until we have received oul
clothing and arms, and we
may stay for several weeks o
drill. There is a possibilit,
that we will not leave Callfor
MIA at all; we may stay a
coast defense. For my part

than stay here; for while tn
danger is greater, there l

it hadn't been foggy night
and, by the way, there is con-
siderable fog in this country.
Just east of the tea house is
where the vigilance committee
had their exciting times in
the early days. In the tea
house we saw a safe with
eight locks on it. The guide
explained that there were
eight partners who had money
deposited in that safe, and that
all the keys were different.
The money in the safe was
used in gambling. This tea
house is called the Wah Seen
Low. The guide pointed out
some of the oldest buildings in
the city. One Of them was a
hotel. The guide said that in
1882 it was the finest hotel on
the coast; that every stick used
in building it was brought

THERE WAS A COLLISION.
Trolley Car and Coal Train Came
Together with a Crash.

1t was a tired and be-draggled, yet
happy crew of men who reached here
from Moosic at 4.20 o'clock yesterday
morning. The lone passenger, who
had early congratulated himself that
he had succeeded in catching the last
car from Moosc to Scranton, was also
a sharer of the happiness of the others.
The car ought to have reached the Of
flee on or about 1.20 o'clock yesterday
morning rapidly moving coal train
on the Susquehanna Connection Rail-
road at Greenwood was the cause of
the delay.
Just as the car cleared the hill at
Greenwood the power never seemed
more powerful. No one seemed abroad
but suddenly there was a crash quiv-
er, twist and the car stood at right
angles to the track. It's fender had
disappeared, the headlight was
crushed out of shape and very little
of the front platform remained.
When the badly shaken and fright
ened men inside the car had recovered
from the shock and got out of the car
they began a search for the motor
man. Several rods from the car they
found him in an unconscious state. A
little snow and gentle chaping of his
wrists soon revived him.
When the motorman recovered his
power of speech he explained that as
the car was approaching the crossing
coal train on the steam road came
out of the woods a few yards below
the crossing, and before he could stop
the car there was a collision.

Jack Skelly, of Brooklyn, manager of

the latter's trainer, Bobby Dobbs who

Skelly, Judge, Dobbs and the local
members of the club Were in conference
at the Conway house where it was an
nouncei that all the arrangements had

VINO is naturally heavier than the
Scrantonian, had been insisting uDon
an agreement to weigh 143 pounds at
o'clock in the afternoon, while Judge
stipulated that they should weigh in

Palace club, of Trenton.
Pat Murphy, the eX-boXing instruc-

FORTY YEARS AGO.
An Old Photograph Shows What the
Site Of This City Looked Like
in the Year 1857.

John Mcclure, of Green Ridge. has
a photograph of Scranton in 1851 for
which he has declined a cash offer of
500. The picture was taken from a
point on what is now Ninth street,
and shows stretches of woodland, pas
lures and dusty wagon roads. calculat-
ed to make even an old resident Won
der at the difference between the then
and the now.
1t is not known what photographer
made the picture, but that fact is ov-
erlooked in what the picture reveals.
or does not reveal according to the
thought of the beholder. From Ninth
street to the river is a stretch of bar
rem looking, stump studded fields,
some of them fenced and others un-
confined. Only scarce half dozen of
cheap wooden structures appear in the
area mentioned. and it might be sup
posed that part of the present great
city was uninhabited but for the we'll
travelled pathway leading to the rail-
road bridge.
Scranton proper. Pine Brook and the
South Side are shown as distinct and
separate running hamlets, while "the
hilf' is a waste of fields, and tree
clusters. the old Hitchcock homestead,
now occupied by w. w. Watson. being
the only dwelling in the present fash
ionable locality covering good square
mile or more.
The Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western depot in the picture looks like
an ordinary cheaply constructed wood
en- building, from which a single track
crosses the bridge or trestle. and then
divides, one track winding up the hill
toward Providence, and another disap-
pearing beneath the brow of the Hyde
Park hill, down the valley.
There is hardly a suggestion that the
grading of the Delaware and Hudson
or Jersey Central tracks, on each side
of the river, would be a possibility.
The course of the stream. different
then than now. with it's steep banks,
and patches of foliage on the knobs
and hills bordering it's course are thor
oughly deceptive when one tries to de-
eide the present location of the Jersey
Central depot. the freight houses. cleo
trio light power stations or any of the
now distinguished structures on either
side of the river. Copies of the photo
graph are being sold as rapidly as they
can be produced at local studio.
The original photograph is pro-
nounced excellent, considering the
crudeness of the art of picture taking
Al years ago. 1t was preserved in the
Mcclure family quite by accident rath-
er than design until about ten years
ago. when it began to attract atten-
tion. It's present owner then realized
its value and took pa tipular means r.
preserve it. The result is that during
the past week he has been earning a
handsome sum by the sale of the
copies, nearly all Of which are as good
as the original, and the original has
attained a great value. 1t is proposed
to only issue a limited number of
copies at this time. The original will
be held for a similar enterprise and
profit, and possible sale five or ten
years hence.

A CASE in BELLEVUE,
Black Fever Breaks Out on Fourth
Stakeholder Suspicious Cases.

Black fever has made it's appearance
In Bellevue. There is one clearly de-
lined case that three doctors have
passed upon and six or seven other
cases in which the unmistakable symp-
toms have made themselves apparent.
DIR. j. =. Walker was called yester-
day to attend Thomas Forkan, of 209
Fourth street, who was taken suddenly
and violently i'll during the morning
He found the patient afflicted with the
dread disease and at once summoned
DR.. 5. p Longstreet and DR.. Walter NJ
Reedy in consultation. They verified
his diagnosis and agreed with him that
the victim would not live through the
night.
Steps were taken to prevent conta-
eion and the case reported to the board
of health. DR.. Walker also reported
that he has heard there are six or
seven cases in Bellevue where the
symptoms gave strong indications of
the same disease.
The disease is known to medicine as
cerebro spinal meningitis and is an in
fiammatory affeCtation Of the base Of
the brain. Its most pronounced symp-
tom is paralysis, which causes the
patient to rest only on the head and
heels. Primary symptoms are vomit-
ing, retching and delirium.

tinctive color, no two being exactly
alike. The exhibit will continue for
three of four weeks.

PRES. SANDERSON'S
RULING QUESTIONED
South Side Sewer Hxpouents Propose to
Take Action.
NOT IN THE PRESIDENTS PROVINCE
They Say He Had No Right TO Rule
on n Question of Finance Such as
Was Involved in the Resolution to
Award the sewer Contract to Dunn
Bros.--Is Claimed That the City
Controller Is the Proper Judge.

An effort will be made at next Thurs
day nights meeting of select council
to shatter President Sandersons de-
Cision in reference to the resolution
awarding to Dunn Brothers the con-
tract for building the big main sewer
In the Eleventh. Twelfth and Nine
teenth wards on the South Side.
The resolution passed common coun-
ell but when it was presented for con-
Currence in the upper branch last week
President Sanderson ruled 1t out of
order on the ground that not by the
sewer ordinance or otherwise had any
appropriation been made for the city's
share of the expense. about $4,000. He
held that it was clear mandate of
the state constitution, that no expense
could be created by ordinance If no
provision had been previously made
therefor. on this ground he ruled the
resolution out of order.
Since President Sanderson's ruling,
the supporters of the ordinance in and
out of councils have been thinking.
They have reached these two conclu-
sions: President Sanderson himself de-
stroyed the soundness of his ruling by
permitting the resolution to be referred
to committee for consideration in con-
Junction with the city solicitor, he hav-
ing previously ruled the resolution out
of order; it was further not his prov
ince to rule on a question of finance
or any other question concerning other
than the strictly parliamentary bust
ness of councils. but that the resolu-
tion should have been permitted to
reach the city controller who is the
proper official to decline to act under
il If there had been no provision made
to meet the expense the resolution in
vOlved.
a meeting of several property own
ers of considerable prominence and
who are directly interested in the res
olution conferred yesterday with GER
tain city officials concerning the action
to be taken at next Thursday nights $
meeting.
Good legal counsel, they say, has ad-
Vised them that President Sanderson
had no right to make his ruling-the
question of finance being immaterial
in the matter-and that the provisions
of the ordinance amply cover the city's
| prospective expense.
