At SAN PEDRO

People, Backed by Judge Stephens,
Appear to Hold Winning Hand
in the Struggle That Is
Going On.

Special Dispatch to The Call.

LOS ANGELES, June 2S.-The con-
tentiOn between the Terminal Railway
and the Southern Pacific Railroad that
is being fought out at San Pedro, that
In its eject seeks to prevent the Hunt
ington interests from obtaining a ferry
franchise and a foothold on Terminal
Island. this morning received a new
impetus in the hearing before the
Board of Supervisors. The seaport
town of San Pedro entered the arena
and jumped with bewildering sudden
ness into the very thick of the i'm
broglio and made an unexpected slash
at the Huntington corporation that
proved disastrous to the octopus.
Judge A. NJ. Stephens, on behalf of
the people of San Pedro, led the cru
SADIE. In his statements before the
Supervisors the Judge referred to the
legal features of the case and cited the
law TO show that in the event of the
ferry franchise being granted another
ferry could not be operated within a
mile above or below, which he asserted
in considering the typographical feat
ures of San Pedro harbor amounted to
handing over to the Southern Pacific
Company an absolute monopoly. He
said further that San Pedro wished to
operate ferry across the bay and is
about to begin proceedings to condemn
a landing place on Southern Pacific
property. The granting of the proposed
franchise would, he said. interfere with
this project.
This age" Judge Stephens said, "is
supposed to be fighting monopolies. not
fostering them. This franchise would
absolutely exclude any other ferry,
even free one. Another could not be
granted unless the grantee owned the
landing places"
Opposing counsel regarded the grant
ing of this franchise as one of a public
character.
Il do not" replied Stephens. "I
should not consider it public unless it
were open to all the public all the time.
l think that a ferry operated for the
benefit Of the passengers of one par
ticular railroad could not be considered
as public"
The efforts Of the San Pedro people
availed and the hearing was set over
until Friday. So far in these many
contests for this franchise the Hunting
ton effort has at every stage been de-
feated

WILL FULLY TEST
SARANEL|S SERUM

Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, June 2S.-Through the
worldwide interest will be made in this
country with DR.. Giuseppe Saraneli S
serum for prevention and cure of yell
low fever-experiments the usefulness
of which are doubly great from the
standpoint of the United States now
that 1t is necessary to keep American
troops in islands where yellow fever
may be a greater menace than a hos
tile army.
The Herald received some days ago
cable dispatch from Count Malherbe.
Russian Consul at Montevideo, who
has acquired Saranelis serum, and
offered to the Herald 300 or more bot
ties of it to be used in experiments in
Louisiana with a view to having its
properties subjected to a test under
proper auspices, and in hope that the
great claims made for the serum might
be justified and great benefit conferred
upon the world at large.
Realizing the Importance of the mat
ter the Herald at once accepted Count
Malherbe's offer and communicated in
turn with the Louisiana State Board
of Health.
DR.. Edmond Souchon, president of
that board, it is said, will accept the
serum and use it when an opportunity
affords. He does not believe, however,
that yellow fever is a great menace
this summer, and that if the fever
does break out there may be a diff

efficiency, since he regards it as a pre-

proved in case the patient to whom it
was administered escaped the scourge
In view of the Importance of losing no
chance to enter upon experiments
which might prove of priceless value
he says the board for which he speaks
will undertake the work.
When Surgeon General Wyman of
Washington was interviewed by a
Herald reporter regarding the use of
the Saraneli discovery as a protection
against and cure for yellow fever he
expressed great interest. AS to the eff
