REDWOOD CITY. Dec. 2.-Rumor is

Railroad, which has been securing
rights Of way for an electric railway
to run parallel with the Southern Pa
ciic, is merely a step the Southern Pa
cific has taken in order to secure right
of way for track system between
here and San Francisco.
The Peninsula Company was organ

bridge project was put under way, and
agents were Immediately sent here to
secure valuable rights of way through
city property, and where the Southern
Pacific right Of way was narrow they
would cut off a strip from farm or

JAPAN To ENTER
SOUTH AMERICA

In confirmation Of the report pub
lished in The Call two weeks ago that
Japan was preparing TO enter into
competition with the United States in
the south American trade. word has
been received from the Orient and con-
frmed by representatives of the Togo
Kisen Kaisha steamship line that it's
steamers viii be withdrawn from the
san Francisco run and sent TO Chile.
General Manager Shirashi, whose visit
10 this city has been in the interests
Of the line, said that upon the com
pletion Of modern 12,OO0-tOn steamers
now building at Kobe they would be
placed on the run between this port
and Yokohama
That Japan viii Immediately enter
the competitive field Manager Shirashi
would not say. It viii require almost
two years to complete the vessels
building and until that time the Amer
lea, Hongkong and Nippon Will con-
tinue to ply in their accustomed routes.
no arrangements have been made to
charter other ships for the proposed
run to the Chilean ports.
tt is believed and not denied by the
cOmpany's representatives here that
one Of the incentives to the proposed
change is the opportunity to import
coolie labor into the canal zone. 1t
would also give Japan an additional
port Of call on the isthmus and open
another American door to her products.

CLUBMEN MAY SEEK
MOB HILL SITE
Pacific-Union May Decide
to Exchange Post Street
Property for Higher Land
PANORAMA OF CITY

There is talk in the Pacific Union
Club in favor of exchanging the clubs
lot on the northeast corner of Post
and Stockton streets for the Flood man
sion ground on California hill.
In the University Club there is also a
sentiment favorable to the selection of
site the crest of the hill, where
the marine view is enchanting and the
panorama of the city inspiring. Many
sons of the big brown owl of Bohemia
view with alarm" the proposition to
erect an expensive clubhouse on Post
and Taylor streets.
The Union League Club is comforta-
bly, sheltered in the Hellman house, on
the northwest corner of Franklin and
California streets and is not contem-
plating an Immediate change of posi-
ton. The annual election of officers
will occur next month. Next in the
regular order OF succession to the pres
idency of the league is Vice President
NJ. H. de Young, but as business affairs
of magnitude engross his attention he
may be constrained to decline club hon
ors. The league is In splendid shape
SO far as membership and finances are
concerned. There is a big interest
bearing surplus in bank, which will
probably be increased from year to
year until the league is able to build
just such house as the membership
requires. Colonel George H. Puppy has
served the league as it's president for
five consecutive years.
General surprise would not be Gre
ated If the prominent clubs should re-
solve to select sites for future homes
in the region of California street, be-
tween Powell and Leavenworth. In
every leading club there are many adj
vocates of high ground location. The
argument is advanced that the street
railways will make it easy for mem
bers to reach their respective clubs.
