Only Brief Enjoyment of Empty
Titles by the Men Who Will
Be Chosen To-

The last board of directors to engineer
the famous Central Pacific Company will
be elected this afternoon in the yellow

TO know that they had titles empty of all
honor or significance thrust upon them.
The annual meeting of the stockholders
this year will not be characterized by
warning individuals standing firm for
their own special interests. There will be
no representative of the English stock

passing of the loving cup.
James Speyer of New York. the finan-
cier, who organized the consolidation
plan, has the ffty-two cards in his hands
ana he may play them at will. He repre-
sents over 80 per cent cf the stock issued
and with this irresistible power under his
control he will merely dictate who shall
wear the toga and What they shall do
when enveloped in it's folds
1t is the general belief that the per-
sonnel of the board to be elected will be
entirely different from those of the past
Ihere Will be no change in the chief ex-
ecut1Ve, however, as |. L. Reuua is the
choice of Huntington and Speyer Many
OF the railroad men in the yellow build
ing anticipate the election of a number
of local bankers to the directorate, men
VINO are deep in the confidence of Speyer

selected for the empty honor, their regime
will be short one. When the contract
was signed in New York between the
Central Pacific and the Southern Pacific
Company for the consolidation and the
assumption of the formers bonded debt
by the Southern Pacific, the Central Pa
enc Gllic IN reality passed, out of existence.
The certainty Of the future contingency
made the Central Pacific a component
part of an entity, the Southern Pacific
Company, which from that time on was
to act for both.
The consolidation and the new bond is
sue Will not be consummated this after
noon Mr.. Speyer's plan of reorganiza-
ton will not become completely effective
until the minor details are arranged. AS
soon as this is accomplished the Central
Pacitc will pass out of existence This
VIII be but the matter of a few months
and then the Southern Pacific and c. P.

lettering and repainting of cars. The
Z. P.'s will all be S. P's and thus will
the enterprise of Stanford, Crocker, Col
ton and Huntington pass into history.

"BLACK SHEEP OF
CHRISTENDOM
Strong Sermon by Rev.
w. M. Paden.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN ANSELMO, April I.-The annual
commencement exercises of the San Fran
cisco Theological Seminary were held at
Assembly Hall to-day. over five hundred
people were present from San Francisco,
Alameda County and San Rafael ana III
order 10 make things as convenient as
possible for those who attended the cXer-
cises the North Pacific Coast Railway
stopped all trains midway between San
Anselmo and Ross station, on the ROAD
leading to the seminary.
The large Assembly Hall was beauti-
fully decorated with flowers and ever
greens by the junior class. Professor
John II. Kerr, ID, chairman of the fac
ulty, presided, and the exercises opened
with hymn and prayer
The first feature of the programme was
a series of addresses by William H. Bleak
ney, Charles T. Hessel and Harry II.
Pratt. Bleakney spoke on "ConserVa-
tism." He said that conservatism pre-
serves truth and truth both develops and
promotes as well. Christ he regarded as
a conservatst when he announced his tr-
tention of fulfilling the prophecies, and
Combated the Jewish law. Hessel TOOK
as his theme The Heroic SPIRIT He
defined herOiSm as true manHneSS or
womanliness made manifest. As an in
stance the pleading Of Queen Esther be-
fore the King for her people was mem
on by Harry H. Pratt, who divided his
subject into three parts, viz, the Bible as
the word of truth, the true religion and
Christ the essence of truth, and spoke on
the theme at length in its various phases.
The commencement address was deliv-
cred by Rev. William NJ. Paden, DID, of
Salt Lake City, Utah, who discOursed in
an eloquent and forcibe manner on The
Black Sheep of Christendom.' He said
his plea was not so much for the heather
or those in the slums as for 'backsliders'
and prodigals. the lost sheep of the
church He believed that two-thirds Of
the criminal class is comprised of those
who once had good homes and were sur
rounded by good influences.
The genesis or cause of non-church-
going" he declared. ''is because the fallen
are missed nowhere. expected nowhere
and go nowhere. This evil can never be
remedied until the laws of the land are
better enforced against those vices which
are sapping the life of true manhood and
wOmanhOOd."
Rev. Robert F. Coyle, DID. president of
the board of directors, officiated at the
presentation of diplomas and gave the
members of the graduating class some ex-
cellent advice as regards their future life
in the interest of the gospel. The gradu-
ating class was as follows:
William II. Bleakney, James NJ Cor
nelson. Philip A. Fisher, Charles P. Hes
sci, Robert c. Jones, James Little, Harry
II. Pratt and Abraham d. Soper
