BERKELEY, Dec. 10.-A comet

telescope at Mount Hamilton. This
heavenly tramp was discovered by DR..
Brooks in 1889, who kept track of it

DR.. Aitken of Lick Observatory was
rewarded by a sight of it. The comet
again remained within view for two

for studying its movements. The

EXTENDING AUTOMATIC BLOCK

Work on the First Section Out of Six

OAKLAND, Dec. 1O.-The work of
extending the automatic block system
from Oakland to Port Costa has begun,
and the first section, which will run
from Sixteenth street station, Oakland,
to Corbin, just beyond Berkeley sta
ton, is being installed. The automatic
block system has, up to the present
time, ended just beyond Sixteenth
street, and from that point to Port
Costa trains have been operated under
the telephone block system.
1t has now been decided that the au-
tomato system will be extended
through to Port Costa, the present lin
its of the double track, and as soon as
the double track to Sacramento is COM
pleted it will be extended through to
that town.

facilities for -four shipments from this
city, the Portland FIGURING Mills Com
pany viii Immediately commence work
on an extension of its already great
plant in this city.
President Wilcox announced yester-
day that the plans had all been COM
pleted and construction work would
begin at once. The new mill will not
only be the largest upon the Pacific
Coast, but it will have a capacity
larger than any other two mills upon
the coast. The daily output will be
increased from 24OO to $500 barrels, and
it will swell the capacity of the en-
tire system of mills controlled by this
concern to over 10, 900 barrels per day.
The Portland mill alone, when the
extension is completed, will have a ca
pacity sufficient TO load 5000
ton steamship every eleven days, and
Mr.. Wilcox has had positive assurance
from Mr.. Hartman that a service ade-
quate TO meet all requirements will be
supplied at once. The Portland and
Asiatic Steamship Company, however.
will not wait for the construction of the
new mill to add steamers for the regular
service, for it has already arranged for
the mammoth steamship Algoa, which
left here last month, to return in Janu-
ary and help out the regular steamer.
1t is undecided yet whether or not the
Algoa will be continued regularly upon
the route. but if she is not, other

WILL FIGHT WATER
RATES CASE TO END
City Council Decides, After Hearing
Committee Report, to Carry For
ward Appeal With Expedition.

OAKLAND, Dec. 1O.-The City
Council in executive session tonight
decided to fight the water rates case
to the end. This action was taken
after Councilman a. II. Elliott, as
special committee of one, had made
a report on a resolution recently
adopted by the Council on motion of
Councilman John L. Howard, calling
for an investigation as to the status
of the litigation. The principal point
involved was whether the city would
be gamer by continuing the appeal
through the Supreme Court from
Judge Hart's decision, which fixed a
$1,000, 900 valuation on the Contra
Costa Water Company's plant for rate
fixing purposes.
After listening to Councilman Eli
oft the members of the Council came
to the conclusion that the appeal
should be carried forward with all
expedition. 1t was argued that the
public mind in Oakland was set upon
a final judicial determination of the
long fought suit, which was inaugu-
rated by the Contra Costa Water
Company in opposition to the action
of the City Council of 1900 in cutting
the water rates.

the right of way would be filed on
Monday. He said further that the
gentlemen represented in the COM
pany were amply able to carry out
the plans and purposes of the or
ganization and had been contem-
plating building the road for nearly
year. The necessity for such
line is said to be due to the present
imperfect facilities for reaching
Bolivar and the time that is lost in
making such a trip. A second
reason advanced is the urgent need
that people find, living in the thick
ly populated districts Immediately
north and northeast of Memphis,
and the third and final reason ad-
vanced is that the city of Memphis
has made such prodigous strides
within the last three years that
people living out of the city are
anxious to be brought moro closely
in touch with the people here.
The appearance of the interurban
systems of the East and Middle
West are the direct results of rapid
growing cities.
The necessity of frequent inter
change of visits between the city
man and the man of the suburbs has
made it necessary to find quicker
method of transportation than that
furnished by the railroads. While
the territory proposed to be covered
by the new interurban line lies be-
tween two lines of railro I'd, the
time schedules of each make it
necessary TO lose more than day in
making the trip to the city. 1t is
frequently the case that resident
of the district has to transact bust
ness in the city which will occupy
but short time. He can complete
the matter before him III a few
minutes, but he has to spend the
entire day before he can return
home. The schedule of the pro-
posed road will be such that a trip
of this character can be made in a
short space of time. There are
other reasons advanced by Senator
Norfieet why the road will prove a
profitable investment He says
that there are a great many men of
wealth in the city who would enjoy
owning a suburban home, situated
in this section, because it is the
most fertile and at the same time
the most attractive part OF Shelby
county. They have not invested in
this section because it is impossible
OF access, and to drive in aud out
would require too much time. The
building of such roaA, he says,
will bring upon the market valuable
real estate, which will quadruple in
value within year.
1t is understood that the County
Court is going to pursue a liberal
policy with such corporations, be-
cause they tend TO build up the
coalty and to attract people here
