dental salute and flags were hoisted
over all public buildings. The prin-
cipal streets and edifices and residences

with the flags of foreign nations. One of
the features of the street decorations
was two categorical arches over the
Paso de La Reforma, the principal
street or the capital, representing
peace" and glory"
At the Hall of Congress. amid great
enthusiasm, the President and Vice
President were formally notified of
their election and took the oath of al

NEW ELECTRIC
ROAD PROJECT
Work ON a Line to Connect
San Jose and San Fran
cisco to Be Soon Begun
MATERIAL is ORDERED
John w. Gates, the Eastern
Millionaire, Is Said to Be
Financing the Scheme
special pispatch 70 The can.

PALO ALTO, Dec. LIT was an
nounced to-day that the syndicate that
is promoting the construction of the
Palo Alto and San Jose electric road
has purchased the Santa Clara and San
Jose electric road and also the line from
San Jose to Alum Rock Park. The
syndicate intends to extend the line
from Santa Clara north through PalO
Alto to San Mateo, and IL satisfactory
connections cannot be made with the
San MateO line a separate road may be
built from there to San Francisco. The
surveys have been made and most Of
the right of way secured. A franchise
was granted by the City Council Of San
jose Monday night for extensions of the
line in that city. The company has
franchise on University avenue and
Waverly street in Palo Alto, and petit
lions for franchises have been made to
the trustees of Mayfield and Mountain
View. Except through the incorpor
ated towns the line of the road will be
through private property in order that
fast time may be made.
The project to build this line was in
augurated about year ago by j. F.
Parkinson of Palo Alto and a short
time ago he succeeded in interesting
John w. Gates, the Eastern millionaire
railroad man, and his associates in the
enterprise. The company has adequate
financial backing. William Dohrmann
and A. T. de Forest, both wealthy men
who recently located here, are sup
posed to represent Gates interests as
they are taking an active part in pro-
noting the road. w. F. Hanrahan Of
San Francisco has been employed for
the past month in securing rights Of
way and has met with but little OppO-
sition except at Fair Oaks, where the
owners of country estates do not take
kindly to having an electric railway
pass through their property. The ma
terial for the road has been ordered and
it is expected that construction work
will be begun in few weeks.

CORONADO'S ATTORNEYS
WILL ASK FOR DISMISSAL
Say That Defendant Was Once In
Jeopardy and That He Cannot
Be Tried Again.

SAN JOSE, Dec. Attorneys Will
liam A: Bowden and B. A. Herring
ton, about whom sensational charges
of misconduct centered yesterday
prior to the dismissal of the jury in
the; Coronado murder case, filed a no
tice in the Superior Court to-day that
en- December 9 at 10 a. m. they will
move for a dismissal of the charge
against their client. Judge Tuttle yes
terday after dismissing the jury or
dered that the case be set for trial
on January 8.
In the notice filed the attorneys al
lege that Coronado has been once on
trial before a competent jury, which
was dismissed without the consent of
the defendant. The point will be
raised that as Coronado has been
once in jeopardy he cannot be tried
again. Attorney Bowden to-day in an
interview said he had no doubt
that Coronado would secure his re-
lease because Of the dismissal of the
jury.
Juror Louis S. Cavallaro, who was
so severely condemned by Judge Tut
tie for associating with the attorneys
for the defense, to-day called at the
County Clerks office and collected jury
fees amounting to $14 15 for services
in the Coronado trial.

STANDARD OIL
IN A new ROLE
Announcement Is Made That
1t Is Not Unfriendly to
the Independent Agency
EXPLAINS RECENT. MOVE
Hope by Refusing to Buy to
Induce Outside Companies
to Join the New Combine

b. KERSFIELD, Dec. Lit was
stated on the best Of authority here to-
day that the Standard Oil Company in
declining to purchase any more spot oil
is actuated only by motives friendly to
the independent agency, it being the
wish Of the big combine that the agen-
cy, with which 1t hopes to do business.
will secure as far as possible the con-
troll Of the product OF the field 1t is
also said that the Standard is ready
and willing to purchase from the agen-
cy all the oil 1t controls at a rate OF not
less than 25 cents a barrel, but in order
to do this it must be- reasonably certain
that there is no great amount Of loose
oil that can be thrown upon the market
at price less than what the Standard
Is paying the agency. Hence the re-
fusal of the Standard to take any more
spot oil, the idea being to induce all
the companies not yet members OF the
independent combine to join and be-
come a part Of the agency.
The Standard Oil Company will soon
have an idle storage capacity OF 10000 900
barrels in the Kern. River field, a ca
pacfty almost equal to the oil 1t. now
has stored. 1t wants the oil for these
empty reservoirs, and the only me-
dunn through which it can secure II IN
quantity is through the independents
agency.

CHAPMAN TAKES LIFE
WHILE TEMPORARILY INSANE
London Jury Finds New Yorker Was
Mentally Deranged When He
Committed Suicide

LONDON, Dec. 1.-"Suicide during
temporary insanity was the verdict of
the Coroner's inquest on the remains
of Elverton r. Chapman of New York
who committed suicide on the evening
of November % at the Carlton Hotel
by throwing himself from the third
floor landing to the vestibule
The evidence of friends showed that
Chapman while in Paris exhibited
signs of arrangement. He therefore
was closely watched at the hotel. but
eluded the vigilance of his attendant
and succeeded in throwing himself
into the vestibule.
Chapman never recovered con-
seriousness. Shortly before he took his
fatal leap he handed his banker letters
addressed to his father and sister. ex-
pressing regret if they had any dis
agreements in the past and wishing
them long and happy lives.

Secretary of the Navy Charles H. OAR
ling will leave Los Angeles tomorrow
morning for visit to San Pedro, where
he will make a thorough inspection of
the harbor and dock facilities and the

They will leave for New Orleans to-
morrow evening.
Speaking of the possibility of coaling
stations on the Southern California
coast, the assistant Secretary said
to-day:
MY inspection along the Pacific
Coast has thus far shown me the inn
portance of establishing a coaling sta
ton at San Diego. The Government
owns property there and l feel safe In
saying coaling station will be estab-
lished there. Those interested from a
business and patriotic standpoint urge
a system of drydocks along the Pacific
Coast There will have to be
more drydocks established. Some
of them undoubtedly will be large.
In the course of time these will be
built. / have inspected the harbors
at Eeattle, Puget Sound; Portland, Or;
Mare Island. San Francisco, Santa
Barbara. Del Monte and at San Diego
All of these have shown me it is i'm
portant to establish a coaling station
further south on the California coast
cannot properly discuss the Los An
geles harbor at San Pedro until after
have inspected it. 1t would be I'M
possible TO say what future San Pedro
has as a naval station at this time"
