making it a misdemeanor for any per-
son to offer racing tips for sale. The
proposed ordinance was referred to the
legislative committee.
Hearing Continued
A partial hearing was given the pro-
test against abandoning Leonis street
by the council yesterday. Property
owners claim that J. P. Goytino and
others have appropriated the street to
their own use. The hearing was con-
tjnued for one week. In the meantime
the council will secure an opinion from
the city attorney.
Wants Bill Paid
M. l.. Wicks presented a bill to the
council yesterday for $1S39.75. The
money is demanded from the city on
account of water pipes laid in various
subdivisions under an alleged arrange
ment with the water commission. In
his communication Wicks explained
that the water department had de-
clined to allow the bill. The demand
was referred to the city attorney.
Declined to Pay
Mayor McAleer yesterday returned a
demand upon the city treasurer for
$5S666 to the council without his ap-
proval. The demand was in favor of
f. w. Braun, treasurer of Chester
Place. The demand is for electric
lights furnished by the Pacific Light
and Power company and was passed
by the old council on the last day of
the old year. Mayor McAleer held
the demand that the city pay the bill
is unjust.
Franchise Order
The council yesterday directed the
city attorney to prepare notice of
sale for the Stevenson and Boyle ave-
nue. electric railroad franchise. The
recommendation of the board of pub
lie works that the franchise be offered
for sale was adopted. The route of
the proposed line is from Stevenson
and Boyle avenues, south on Boyle
avenue to Seventh and along that
street to Spring. The life of the fran
chise is thirty-four years.
Park Appointees
The park commission has presented
the names of twenty-four men to the
mayor for his approval, the men to be
employed as laborers in the city parks.
The men will be appointed so as to
commence work on the first day of
February. This is one of the few in
stances where there is some political
patronage to be distributed, the park
laborerS not being under the civil SER
vice. The list was compiled from the
recommendations of friends of the ad-
ministration. The men appointed will
take the places of others appointed
under the Snyder administration. There
IL no increase in the force.
Poor Improvements
Property owners on Euclid avenue
yesterday presented a protest against
the bills for the improvement of
part of the street. Judge w. A.
Cheney, who represented the protest
ants said that the work was accepted
by former Street Superintendent Wer-
din before it was completed. Cheney
said the contract was let before there
were any railroads on the street. The
railroad was built before the contractor
did his work and he did not improve
the part covered by the railroad yet,
Cheney said, the people were asked to
pay for all the work, The case was
sent to the board of public works.

Trepoff Dictator.

Il &. s - - 80 = .
Emperor Nicholas uka Sc virtually Great
Ing Govenor-G Trepoff dictator,
has caused n mighty sensation i is
the imperial decognition of the crisis in
the internal affairs Of Russia. The figure
of Constan Pobiedonostseff. chief procu-
rator of the Holy Synod. looms large. He
lef what many believed to be his dying
bed last Thursday and went to Tcarkoe
Selo, where he spent almost the entire
day with His Majesty. The ukase came
like a bolt from clear sky. NJ. Bosuli-
gan Minister of the Interior. Immediately
resigned and 1t IS not improbable that
other ministers Will follow suit. 1t Is
rumored in the city that Count Lans-
dorff. the Foreign Minister, has already
placed his resignation in the hands OF
the Emperor and that he will be succeed
ed by AZ Anravieff, former Minister Of
Justice and now ambassador at Rome.
Admiral .Alexleff has also demanded tho
acceptance Of his resignation.
NJ. Sturmer, an extreme react!onary,
who belongs to the Yon Plehve school,
1t is commonly reported, will succeed
N. Boulgin as minister Of the Interior.
What It May Mean.
In spite OF the popular Interpretation,
however, that Trepoff's appointment
means repression and reaction to the
bitter end. the latter conclusion by no
means follows. as It was under Toris-
Melkoffs dictatorship that tn ereform
programme of Alexander II. was worked
out Tho same thing may prove true In
this case. Among the contradicttonary
rlInors, which are current here, one is
that the issue of the ukase will be cou-
pied with the immediate calling of q
Zemsky Sober. 1t is apparent that the
Emperor has decided that the hands OF
the government shall no longer be forced
b. political agitation. and that the new
legislative assembly shall bear the ball
mark Of imperial fashioning and not
that Of popular clanor
The decision of the Emperor undoubt7
edly was prccipitated by the Russian
disaster in the Sea OF Japan, and threat-
ened peace demonstrations, the first Of
which was to be big meeting Of Gems
styoists and Dumnists at Moscow to-day.
which General Trepoff, in his first act,
prohibited. With the extra weight on

agitation burning hotly, there would be
