PAY Or WALK
IS NEW RULE
Kruttschnitt to Issue
Very Few Annual
Passes.
Trunk Lines Adopt a New
Order Which All Roads
May Follow.

There viii be wailinG and gnashing or
teeth on and after the first Of the year
by nearly all those VINO have in the past
been recipients7of annual passes from the
Southern Pacific Company.
Last year the list was cut down about
one-half. and there is now prospect of
it's being made much smaller than ever.
The trouble can be placed at the door OF
the Eastern trunk lines. These roads viii
not issue annual passes on and after the
first Of next year to any persons, not even
to railroad employees of other competing
roads,. OF course. If pass is asked owe"
one of the roads by one railroad man
from another it will be granted, but trav-
cling passenger agents will pay their faro
the same as any one else. This gives tha
Southern Pacific Company a splendid
opening to curtail it's annual pass list
julius Kruttschnitt is now in charge and
is the executive that Will sign all annual
passes. He was never known to be very
generous in this line, and it Is now known
that man that will receive a pass on
the first OF next year can hatter himself
that he Is much favored.
Chief Counsel Herrin's list viii not be
tampered with. 1t is said that his old
friends and henchmen will receive the
courtesies Of the road, but these will be
about all.
When President Hays was in charge he
renewed for sixty days all passes that
had been issued previous to his arrival
When this extension of time expired
about half of those who had been in the
habit before of riding on passes did not
again receive the coveted piece Of paste-
board.

SHOOTING IN PARK
Is YET A MYSTERY
Police Unable to Locate the Man
With a Blood-Stained
Vast

The police have been unable to get a
clew to the man who got on a car oppo-
site Fourteenth avenue Friday night with
bloody hands and blood stained vesr
and told the conductor and motorman
that he had been invited by letter to meet
some one at the pathway leading to
Strawberry Hill and was ''up against it."
Detective Whitaker was detailed on the
case by Captain Seymour yesterday. He
ascertained that the man, from the de-
scription given by the conductor and mo-
torman. boarded a car going to the Cliff
House early Friday night When the car
reached the Cliff House he remained on
it ard got off at Fourteenth avenue. The
fact that he did not leave the car at the
Cliff House drew attention to him. 1t
was about an hour later when he boarded
the other car, from which he alighted at
Masonic avenue and Haight street after
being advised to report the matter at the
Stanyan-street station, which he did not
do.
The police think that he had either at
tempted to commit suicide or had been
shot by a woman

RUMOR THAT CALVE HAS
THROAT CANCER DENIED
DR.. GIANT Selfridge Says Report &C
That Effect From Los Angeles
Is Unfr1e.

dispatch from Los Angeles last night
stated that it had been discovered that
the true malady from which Calve, the
great opera singer, was suffering was
cancer of the throat. Calve is now in the
southland for the bene1t of her health.
Dr. Grant Selfridge, who was one of
Calves physicians while she was in this
city, denies the cancer story. The doctor
said:
Calves condition now, or at least when
I saw her last, was much better than
when she arrived in the CITY, Her ailment
is diffuse bronchitis Shortly after her
arrival 1 was called upon to examine her
throat This 1 did, and found her vocal
chords to be as perfect as any I ever saw
in my life. The cancer story is absolutely
unfounded. The night she appeared in
Carmen she evidently caught more
cold, which caused a recurrence of the
bronchitis. With a little rest in a warm
climate she will soon be in good health
again, her illness by no means being Of
a permanent or serious nature"

HIGH-PRICED ENGINEER
LOSES HIS LAWSUIT
Herbert Lang Contradicted Under
Oath by Manager Daily of Cop
ner Kinp Comnaov


In the suit of w. E. Dean VS.. w. H.
Daily and the Copper King Mining Com
pany United States Circuit Judge Nor
row rendered judgment yesterday in ia
vor of the plaintiff for $780,
The case was transferred from the Su-
perior Court of Alameda County to the
United States Circuit Court, Daily being
a citizen Of Maryland and the copper
company being a corporation under tbs
laws of the State of New Jersey. Dean
is the assignee of Herbert Lang, who
sued to recover 1920 so for services as
consulting engineer at salary of $500 per
month and for moneys advanced to en-
ployes at the request of the defendant.
Lang went on the stand in the Circuit
Court and swore that Daily had hired
him under a verbal contract at the salary
of $500 per month. Daily fatty denied this
statement.
Judge Morrow remarked that it did not
appear that any meeting of the company
had ever been held to take notice of the
alleged contract, and on the point as to
whether there was or was not such a con-
tract the evidence was evenly balanced
Judgment was rendered for 5000 for
plans and specifications for a blasting
furnace and for $50 for draughtsmen, the
defendant not contesting that part of the
claim.
