Railroad Legislation

The fight Tor the railroad 1egisla-
ton, which has been complicated by
the drawing of party lines, is reach
ing its climax in the Senate, and no
one is found who Is willing to predict
the outcome. The speech of Senator
Rayner delivered a few days ago was
supposed to outline the views of his
party on the subject, but it is repu-
dated by many of them, and has re-
suited in even greater complication
in the situation The personal views
of Senator Tillman on the rate ques-
ton were presented to the Senate
on the Hepburn bill from the Com
mittee on Interstate Commerce. De-
nouncing the power of the railroads
and portraying the need of leglsla-
ton to curb them, Senator Tillman
criticised the bill, as it had come from
the House, as loose and capable of
various Interpretation. He empha-
sized the need of regarding the meas
ure as non-partisan, but predicted that
the question would form the main
issue in the next Presidential cleo
ton. If the Republicans in the SEN
ate can reconcile their differences on
the rate bill and accept the Hepburn
bill with the Dolliver amendments, it
is possible that the bill can be brought
TO the President for signature by the
middle Of April, and Congress may
proceed TO an early adjournment, pos
sibly by the first Of May. If the
house, however, should refuse TO con-
fer on a much amended rate bill pre-
scented by the SENATE, and the lattef
body should persist in blocking leg
islation, it is altogether probable that
the President would call an extra
session of Congress- It is we'll known
that the President and the Speaker
of the House of the House are in
thorough agreement on all questions
of important legislation at present,
and the President is assured of the
loyal support OF the House on the
rate bill

WELL sPOUTs OUT
MIXED DRINKS.

OAKLAND, Aug so.-Mixed drinks
that ran the assortment frorl an inky
cocktail to milk shake were spouted
from an artesian well on ranch near
San Lorenzo for three days after the
earthquake of April IS, according to
testimony given in the Superior Court
today by Frank King in suit institu-
ted by L. A. Ward and w. Calrk to re-
cover s944.11 from A. N. Dethlefren,
who had a contract for boring the
Shaft. In enumerating the brands of
liquid that came out of the hole In the
ground after the great cosmic cramp,
King, who superintended the drilling
of the well, said that black water, salt
water. sweet water. white water, oily
water and just plain washing and
drinking water flowed from the well
by fits and starts King testified that
three days after the temblor the
freak well ceased to send up mixed
drinks and since that time has kept
but one brand in stock-elear cold wat
er, such as was auaffed from the old
oaken bucket.
Ward and Clark. the plaintiffs in the
suit allege that the work of sinking
the well was not properly done and
that is why they want the money paid
on the contract returned. Judge w.
H. Waste will decide the merits of the
case.

MYTHS Of INDIANS
ARE RECORDED.

:: BERKELEY, Aug. s0.-Miss Con-
stance Goddard du Bois has Just COM
Pleted for the University OF California
an important investigation of the cere-
monies, myths and religion of the
Luisene or Mission Indians of Southern
chronological and archaeological survey
of the State.
Miss du Bois spent a month in the
remote mountain districts of San Diego
County and succeeded in recording sew
eral rare and almost forgotten crea-
tion myths of these people. In connec-
-tiou with their sacred Initiation cere-
monies and dances she was enabled to
see reproductions OF their sand paint
Ing. which resemble the famous. elab-
crate figures made with colored earths
by the Navajo Indians of New Mexico.
These highly symbolic figures have not
been made by the Liusenes for fifty
years and Miss du .Bois' discovery of
them is due TO her personal acquairt-
ance with two or three of the very old
men. who had passed through the
Initiation. ceremonies of the tribe in
their youth:
. Photo graphs. and diagrams of these
paintings were. obtained and will be
published in connection with the other
results of the investigation in a bull
letin to be issued by the university It
lis expected that this new information
viii go far to explain the little under
stood aboriginal rock paintings and
rock carvings that abound in many
parts of California. Miss du Bois re-
sides in Waterbury, Conn, but is widely
known. for her previous studies among
the. Mission Indians and is an active
member of the. California branch Of the
American Folklore Society.

CAssIN AND SMITH
WAR IN COURT.

SANTA CRUZ. Aug. so.-Ths contest
over the estate left BY the late James
Mcneil. gas and electric nsgnate Of
this city and Pittsburg. was enlivened
by a brisk wcrdy row in the Superior
Court today between Attorney D. NJ
Delrnas and Superior Judge Smith on
one side and Attorneys Matt Sullivan
OF San Francisco and c. ". Cassin OF
this city on the.other.
DelInas had asked the court to ex-
cuse the jury pending the arg irnent
of point OF law before the court.
when Sullivan and Cassin warmly OBJ
jected. Judge Smith said IL was al
ways his practice to excuse turies un-
der such circumstances when re-
Questec. Cassin said that at DeImas
request the. court had refused to dis
miss the jury in the Mcdonald case in
similar circumstances
Judge Smith denied all remembrance
Of. such action and Delnlas denied IL
absolutely. Cassip persisted. however
with much heat and II looked as II the
attorney would be fined for contempt
Judge Smith contented himself with
granting dismissal of the jury but
the AFFAIR is looked upon as break Of
amtty between Attorney Cassin and the
Superior Judge.
1t will be remembered that the al
legged favoritism of Judge Smith for
Cassin was the principal count in the
impeachment proceedings against the
Judge during the legislative session OF
1905, which caused the bitterest politi-
cal and personal feeling that this
county has known fer many years.
An estate OF over 100000 was left

with the executive committee at

committees will report from time to
time.

duction was accomplished through the

Matter Of Money Stills Glee Club
Students Cut Off Financial Support

BERKELEY. Aug 30.-The death
knell of the University Glee Club has
been sounded by the executive commits
tee of the Associated Students in the
announcement that support will no
longer be accorded by the students
treasury to the glee club. The effect
OF this announcement was shown when
the few remaining adherents of the
glee club met at Stiles Hall last night
to attempt its reorganization. Nobody
was found who would consent to ac-
cept an Office and the hitherto coveted
plums of places in the glee club went
begging The situation is regarded by
old collegians as unique
These graduates say that the Uni
versity of California is now the only
university IN the land without a glee
club. The traditions that cling to the
glee have been as thoroughly cherished
at Berkeley as anywhere in the country
until this year, when "Finis- is appar-
entity TO be written on the college sing
ers' one-time Iavorite organization.
Reuben 0. Meyer president of the
glee club last year. who was present at
the meeting of the club remnant last
night, expressed great indignation at
the action OF the executive committee
IN denying support to the club. Meyer
said:
at is not right that the executive
HoiitiAllebSC oliOulu NllluidW llo supOOII
from the club OF course the associat-
ed students are being put to additional
expense this term, but our expenses
are extremely slight. There has always
been q glee club at the university. and
1t looks like sign of weakness to
drop it now. Our expenses at the most
are only SIS a month. We will not
petition the committee for q reconsid-
eT@tioa. We will not do anything at
present except to leave the matter to
the students"
The university symphony orchestra
and the university chorus, under Pro-
fessor Wolle-s direction, appear to have
overshadowed such minor musical or
ganizations as the glee club, and this
is regarded as one cause of its decline
and fall
