CITY ATTORNEYS OPINION
AGAINST APPROPRIATION
Long Holds That City Cannot Supple
ment States Allowance for
Normal school.

Normal School.
City Attorney Long filed an opinion
with the Board Of Supervisors yester-
day in which he holds that the board
has no right to appropriate $4,000 to
supplement an appropriation of $780,
900 by the Legislature for the new
State Normal School building and site.
The opinion says:
In the absence of any State or local law en-
powering the municipal authorities, much less
obigating them. to contribute to the support
OF the State Normal School. firmly OF the
opinion that no such contribution be made.
Putting aside the matter or location, which
consider false equation. one would con-
ceiye 1t possible for this city to contrihute
from the revenues to any such purpose. Ger
tainly no such contribution could be made to
the support Of the State Normal School in San
Jose, in Los Angeles, In San Diego or in Chico.
No one would have the hardihood to suggest It,
and yet those schools owe their establishment
and maintenance to the same authority, the
laws governing them are the same. their course
of study and purposes are the same; and no
doubt they contribute competent teachers
to the States corps of instructors as the school
located in San Francisco.
The maintenance Of State Normal School
existing under the direction and control OF the
State Is State asylum State fair,
is not related to the public business of the
city and county of San Francisco, nor prob
able expenditure OF the city and county gov
eminent. Not being such 1t cannot be provided
for in the budget.

O'clock Friday evening on account Oh
the burning of a trash pile near Or.
Flippin's residence. 1t seems that
DR.. Flippin had had the trash set on
fire purposely, with a view to destroy
ing it: but from distance the names
looked ugly, and doubtless some one
thought a house was on fire, and turn
ed in an alarm. The department al
]aved the fears of the timid people in
the neighborhood by extingulshlng the
flames before they returned to head
quarters.

Four bundles of bananas were seiz-
ed by Chief Of Police A. J. Stewart
late Friday afternoon. and destroyed
because they had been imported into
Pine Bluff i'll violation of the quaran.
tine regulations.
The fruit was the property of G.
Mlcholloftl, who conducts fruit
stand. The bananas had been ship
ped into the city by express, as that
was found to be the only manner in
which they could pass the quarantine
guards, who were closely watching all
freight trains entering town.
The present quarantine regulations
prohibit all freight from coming here
from the infected points in Louisiana,
and prohibit all tropical fruits from
entering the city, regardless of where
they come from. Chief of Police Stew
art got tip that the express compa-
ny was shipping tropical fruits into
the city, and began to investigate the
matter. with the result that he found
the report to be true. He discovered
the bananas at Michellotti's place, and
destroyed it. according TO the provis-
ions of the law He then proceeded
to acqnaint the officials of the express
company With what he had discover
ed. The local express people told
him they did not know It was against
the quarantine regulations to ship
the fruit into town. and promised to
comply with the law hereafter In
the meantime, the quarantine officers
will keep close tab on express ship
Tents entering the city as we'll as the
freight shipments.
