full II the industries or occupations
named could be compelled to pay
licenses. In the former list were men-
toned wholesale liquor dealers, BIZ
cycles, dogs, etc. Clerk Johns placed
printing Offices in the latter list and
asked If it was an attempt to muzzie
the press, requiring them to pay al
most as great license as saloons
and more than bank. "Is that con-
sistency?" asked the clerk.
The small license recommended for
saloons came in for severe criticism,
Alderm an Corcoran Offering motion
to increase it to $25 per quarter, but
the motion was not acted upon and
will be renewed tonight.
Mayor Barnes said that he thought
the saloons should be licensed SUI
ficiently high to meet the salary of
the city marshal, as but for the sell
ing of whisky it was very doubtful II
a marshal would be required. As
there are nine saloons in town, so the
committee stated, S25 per quarter
would meet this requirement.
The subject of licenses was gener-
ally debated until late hour, and
the clerk was instructed to prepare
an ordinance and have 1t ready for
action at special meeting tonight.

ty-nine Filipinos and 100 rifles and found
eighty-one insurgents dead lying in the

General Wheaton was informed that the
enemy was gathering at San Jacinto for
the purpose of preventing the Americans

Sikh Mrs. Logan, widow of Major Lo-

death of her husband and her physicians

expected to spend the winter with her
children in the south of France and was
preparing to leave when the cablegram
announcing Major Logan's death was re-
ceived
Major John A Logan Jr. was born in

Logan then embarked in the real estate
business in Washington, but after his
marriage to Miss Edith Andrews, daugh-

c. H. Andrews, March %, 1887, he resided
here. He was engaged in limestone min

May, 1898, Logan received from the Presi-

the battle of FL Caney. He was pro-

be so wisely and safely invested that the
permanent income will contribute so much
annually to the institution that all future
danger of financial embarrassment will be
removed.
Mrs Stanford, whose noble mission in
life is to execute the plans which she and
her husband devised, has surely good rea-
son to rejoice in the great fortune which
has followed the exercise of her judg-
ment in handling the vast interests en-
trusted to her care.
Dr. Jordan and his associates may go to
work with renewed zeal and vigor to build
up such an institution as Leland Stanford
had in mind when he resolved to dedicate
his vast fortune to the cause of education.
There will be no more scaling of salaries
and personal sacrifices by the faculty to
keep the university in touch with other
great institutions of learning.
Some time ago Mrs. Stanford disposed
of her Central Pacific stock, which repre-
sented her late husbands interest in the
original corporation.
All the railroad property that Mrs
Stanford now owns, in common with c..
P Huntington IS her interest in the Pa
cific Improvement Company. This cor
poration was originally known as the
Western Development Company, but the
scandals and mischief arising from its pc
culiar management caused II 10 De known
to the public of California as the West
ern Devilment Company. Thereafter the
name was changed to the Contract and
Finance Company. Subsequently the
name Pacific Improvement Company was
adopted Railroad men now speak of the
interior corporation as the "P l." Com
pany Mrs Stanfords interest in this
concern may not exceed $1,000, 900.
In financial circles of New York some
mystery clings to the long sustained ac-
tivity in Southern Pacific stock The
price obtained by the Crockers for the
Southern Pacific stock which they owned
was a surprise to the bankers, but the
high figure was accounted for on the

a II ANII4A, Nov 14.-The severest
NMM punishment since the fight at
II " " Zapote River, near linus, was
i ~ y inflicted on the insurgents Sat
urday morning through the
brilliant work of the Thirty-third Volun-
teer Infantry, under command OF Colonel
Hare Several hundred men in this regi-
ment were recruited in Texas, and some
of them were formerly in the Rough
Riders. After the fight, which took place
near San Jacinto, the bodies of eighty-one
dead insurgents We're found on the field.
Twenty nine prisoners, forty-seven Maus-
ers and ffty-siX Remingtons were cap
tured. Seven Americans, including Major
John A Logan, were killed and fifteen
wounded.
An advance guard of eight Texan
sharpshooters under the personal di-
rection of Major John A. Logan en-
countered a fusillade from insurgents
we'll concealed in a trench beyond a wide
bog. AS the remainder of Major LoSan's
battalion of the Thirty-third struggled
forward to support him, the enemy s
sharpshooters, who were concealed in the
tops of cocoanut trees and in trenches
along the roadside, opened murderous
fire. a Gatling gun was used with good
effect as the rebels ran away.
The insurgents sharpshooters continued
firing at "a point Wnere lle uIS HS4AI
started until an hour after the town was
taken. Their shots were directed upon a
field hospital Major Logan was shot
through the head and mortally wounded
early in the fight while STOPPING to at
tend a corporal who had been wounded.
A hospital steward was killed while try
ing to drag Logan's body to the side OF
the road Shortly afterward at the same
spot a captain and a non-commissioned
officer were wounded. All this was the
work of sharpshooters, who picked out
the officers by their uniforms. Halt
dozen of these men were spotted IN trees
and killed bv our sharpshooters. The fir
ing on the field hospital men did not
cease, however, until a detail returning
from San Jacinto to convey the dead and
wounded TO San Fabian cleared the coun-
try of insurgents and found Logan among
the dead.

theory that c. P Huntington was willing
to pay a top-notch figure In order to gain
absolute control of the situation.
1t is possible that agencies other than
those directed by Coils P Huntington
secured Mrs. Stanford's 2S5, 900 shares of
Southern Pacific, but The Calls informa-
ton is to the effect that the deal was
wrought in the furtherance of Hunting
toms scheme for transcontinental line
to be operated under his immediate man
agement.
Recently c. p. Huntington ordered that
grading of the Santa Barbara extension
should provide for a double track. In
the rugged country. where the work of
grading is in progress, the additional
grading and cutting for a double track
adds enormously to the cost of preparing
the roadbed.
c. p. Huntington is reported to have
said that his new road along the coast
from San Francisco to Los Angeles would
be the best in the world and when that
enterprise was finished he would keep
right along the lines of Improvement until
he owned road across the entire conti-
nent that would be acknowledged as the
best road in the United States.
DR.. David Starr Jordan, president of
Stanford University, will receive the in
telligence from New York with profound
satisfaction. The estimate of value which
Leland Stanford placed upon the railroad
property has been verified by the prices
which Mrs. Stanford obtained for Central
and Southern Pacific stock.
Whatever may be said about the merits
and motives of the men connected with
the great railway corporation of the Pa
cific Coast, it must be acknowledged that
Coils p. Huntington's able and sagaclous
administration of the road has been the
prime factor in maintaining the value of

nj ANllA, NOV. If Qrtner QeJdllS
IL II regarding the grounding of the
MI United States cruiser Charleston
show that she struck an un-
charted coral reef ten miles east
OF Kaniguin Island. Her stern was al
most submerged and the bow almost out
of water. A heavy sea was on and the
cruiser began rolling violently. The
watertight doors were quickly closed, but
were stove in under the engine compart-
ment, the largest of the ship. After the
first efforts TO right her the officers feared
she might slide off because OF the heavy
sea, and they abandoned the attempt TO
save her. They hurried to the launches
and boats and rowed away, prepared TO
fight for a landing with two Colt guns, 1874
rifles and ten days rations.
Some of the officers and men We're
dressed only in pajamas and their under
clothing. The breech blocks Of the can
non were removed before the boats put
off. Two hours after the Charleston
struck all had got away The report that
the crew remained two days on the vessel
IS Inaccurate. A party returned Two days
later but found 1t impossible to save any
thing.
The first landing was made on a little
island with a front Of barren rocks.
Next day the boats again took to the
water and proceeded TO Kamiguin Island,
where a landing was made In the eXpec-
tation that firing would be necessary -
far from this being the case, however, the
Charleston's men found a half-savage
people, who regarded them with curiosity
rather than hostility. On the third day
the storm had greatly subsided. and Lieu

is that there are not more such disasters

The Charleston lies practically in the
open sea and there is no hope of saving
