.DALY'S BODY WILL

Mourning in London Over the I'm
timely Demise of the Great
Manager

LONDON, June S.-The flags on Days
Theater were half-masted to-day on ac-
count Of the death Of Augustin DAILY. and
among the large colony of American act
ors and actresses here his demise is the
subject of great regret.
Charles Frohman said: II regard Sir
Henry Irving and Mr.. DAILY as having
done more for the elevation of the stage
in their respective countries than any
managers Of the time, and Americas loss
in this respect is irreparable."
Mr.. DAILY left London on Saturday, hav-
ing apparently fully regained his health.
and insisted on a little outing in Paris
He expressed the fullest confidence in the
success of the suit against George Ed.

division of profits of Days Theater. Lon

to Paris to-day with some friends in or

ment.

DISCUSS PLANS FOR A
FOURTH OF JULY PARADE
ESTIMATED THAT TEN THOU
SAND WILL MARCH.
Grand Marshal Costello Selects A. A
Borlini Jr. to Act as His Chief
of Staff.

Preparations for the big 4th Of July
celebration are progressing rapidly, and
the members of the various committees
are more than satisfied with the outlook
A meeting of the parade committee pre-
sided over by A. A Borlini, was held last
evening and the details Of the parade
were discussed. 1t is estimated there
will be fully 10000 people in line on the
morning of the 4th. The 1000 recruits at
the Preside have been invited to partici-
pate, as well as the Twenty-fourth col
ored Infantry, and it is thought both in
vitations Will be accepted. The recently
reorganized Fifth California will also be
in line, and the regiment of Nebraska
volunteers. now en- route to this port from
the Philippines, will also be here and will
be invited to march.
a subcommittee. consisting of Grand
Marshal S. V Costello, Benjamin Davis
and l. Schwartz, was appointed TO inter-
view the Western Meat Company and the
Butchers Board of Trade to induce them
to agree to the closing of all meat mar
kets on the 4th. Other storekeepers will
also be asked to close. A committee con-
sisting of T. r. Robinson and Benjamin
Davis was also appointed TO consult mer-
chant captains and naval officers of the
United States vessels in port on the sub
ject of decorating the ships on that day.
The regatta committee also met, and
Senator Henderson was detailed to ar
range for ~he decoration of all the ships
in the rarbor. 1t is also proposed to have
a yacht race for the schooner class on the
afternoon of the 4th.
Grand Marshal Costello has appointed
A. a BOrlini, who was grand marshal of
last years parade, as his chief of staff.
The other members will probably be Sc
leCted from among the officers now in the
city who served in the Philippines and in
Cuba during the late war.

BANK REFUSES TO
GIVE INFORMATION
Obstacles Placed in the Way of AS
SCISSOR Ortman Of San Joaquin
COUNTY

STOCKTON. June S.-County Assessor
Ortman has met temporary defeat in his
initial effort to enforce the provisions of
the law passed by the last Legislature
providing for the assessment of national
bank stocks. The Assessor cited II. II.
Hewlett, president of the First National
Bank, to appear before him for an eX-
animation touching the value of the stock
in the institution he represented. Mr..
Ortman wanted a statement of the as
sets of the bank in order to get at the true
value of the stock. Mr.. Hewlett readily
gave the list of stockholders and their
holdings, but on the advice of Attorney
]. D. Nicol, by whom he was accom-
panied he declined to give any informa-
ton concerning the assets of the bank,
the stocks actual value, bills receivable
or loans.
The position taken by the banker is that
under the Federal laws he is not required
to furnish any statement and that the
State law under which the Assessor
claims to be acting did not go into effect
until after the first Monday of last March,
the day on which all property is made
assessable for State and county purposes.
Assessor Ortman is a fighter, and the
matter probably will be taken by him into
court for decision.

which high school districts could be es-
tablished in localities of 1000 inhabitants,
and the population of Lodi, San joaquin
County, has the required number of in
habitants. Accordingly high school dis
trict was formed and a schoolhouse was
built. Reuben PiXley, taxpayer there
resisted the improvement, and by leave
of the Attorney General brought action
against the district school trustees to pre-
vent them from exercising the functions
as such. He claimed that his property
was being confiscated without due pro-
cess of law in this: That the Superin-
tendent of Schools made the estimate for
the improvement and the lazy was made
by the Board of Supervisors. His con.
tention was that the County Auditor, If
any one, should have made the estimate;
and further, that the law under which
the officials operated was a special law
The case went to the Supreme Court on
appeal and the Justices decided that the
Legislature had the right to make the

was taken before Police Judge Price and
pleaded not guilty. Her trial was set for
the Goth inst.

street in front of her property until after
her trial. Mrs. Broome returned from San
Francisco several days ago, where she had
gone to secure counsel to defend her in
her case before the Superior Court, in
which she was charged with resisting an
officer. She stated that she feared that
all the Santa Barbara attorneys We're
prejudiced against her and so had to go to
San Francisco for counsel.

NEVADA'S GUBERNATORIAL
CONTEST IN PROGRESS
Ballots of a Precinct Produced by a
County Clerk Who Demanded
Mileage Fees

CARSON, New, June 8.-The Supreme
Court continued consideration to-day of
the Governorship contest This morning
the ballots from Austin Precinct No.
were under consideration. There was con-
siderable controversy over their seal being
broken They were finally introduced as
testimony for the relator amid objections
on the part of Sadler's attorneys. j. A.
Hoegh. County Clerk of Eureka County,
was placed on the stand. He demanded
mileage fees before testifying, which were
paid by Mcmillan, and this was followed
by demand for money expended in the
transmission of the ballots. He was COM
PEELED to testify without this being paid.
His testimony consisted of the mode of
transmission of the ballots which were
offered in evidence. Eureka Precinct
gave Sadler a handsome majority, and
McMillan's attorney placed objections on
fifty-three ballots while Sadler filed OBJ
jectlons to twenty-five. One precinct in
Lincoln County gave Mcmillan one vote,
and was not objected to by Sadler's coun-
sci. McMillan's evidence will occupy the
remainder of the week. Sadlers evidence

EXTENSION OF 0XNARD
BRANCH OF RAILROAD
Work Will Be Completed in Sixty
Days in Order to Handle the
Sugar Beet Crop.

OXNARD, June 8.-A party of surveyors
has been at work for several weeks under
the direction of Construction Engineer
George E. Boschke on the line of the
extension of the Oxnard branch of the
Southern Pacific to Chatsworth Park,
where it will connect with the short line
running out from Burbank on the main
line, lessening the, DISTANCE to Los Angeles
about twenty miles. The total distance
from here to Chatsworth Park is thirty
four miles. This, will ultimately form a
part of the coast line from Los Angeles to
San Francisco. as the distance is shorter
and the grades and curves easier than on
the present route via Saugus.
James Cassian of Grant Brothers, who
are building the branch, arrived yesterday
with seventy-five men, ten cars of mate
rial and 100 horses to commence work on
the first eighteen miles to Somis, and
ground was. broken just east of
this place at 10 a. m. to-day. This
section Of the road is to be completed
within sixty days. in accordance with the
agreement with the American Beet Sugar
Company to have the road in operation
as far as Somis in time to handle the beet
crop for the coming season.
