CHICAGO CAR
C0MPAN LOSES
Must Remove or Change It's
Tunnel to Suit Wishes
of Municipal Government
VICTORY FOR PUBLIC
Cleveland Traction Case Is
Decided in Favor ,of the
Street Railway Octopus

WASHINGTON, April 9.-The chicago
street railway case. involving the right
of the city OF Chicago to compel the
street railway company of that city to
remove or lower it's tunnel under the
Chicago River at Van Buren, street, was
today decided by the Supreme Court of
the United States against the company
on the ground that the change is an
exercise of governmental authority in
the interests of the common welfare.
The Chief Justice and Justices Brewer,
White and Mckenna dissented.
The proceeding grew out of an effort
of the city of Chicago, as the agent of
the United States Government, to COM
pei by mandamus the streetcar company
to remove It's tunnel from under the
Chicago River or to lower 1t. The pro-
ceedings were taken at the instance of
the National Government because of its
decision to deepen the channel of the
river. The time fixed for the removal
is April Is, after which time, If it is
not removed, the streetcar company will
be required to pay penalty of $4,000
monte. The opinion was written by
Justice Harlan.
The case of the City of Cleveland VS.
The Cleveland Electric Railway Com
pany was decided today by the Supreme
Court of the United States in favor of
the company. The case involved the
a new streetear line to operate in
Woodlawn avenue, in the face of the
contention of the old company that its
charter had not expired. The opinion
was by Justice McKenna.
This case presented a phase of the
effort to force cent fares on the street
railways in Cleveland. The electric
company claimed the control of the
streets of the city until 1908, and the
action was begun by the company to
contest the grant of a charter by the
city to the Forest City Company for a
line along Woodland avenue. The old
company attacked this charter and
charged the granting of it to be "a part
of the conspiracy between the city and
the Forest City Company to compel the
old company to submit to cent fares"
| The old company asked the courts to
declare the new company's charter to
be null and void, and to restrain 1t from
proceeding.
The Circuit Court granted this prayer
and the city appealed to the Supreme
Court, with the result of securing an
affirmation of the decision against it.

Father Bartholomew Calzia
Head Of Ladies Sodality,
Passes to Rest.

A life of much usefulness was closed
when Father Bartholomew ~Calzia passed
away yesterday morning at the priests
home of st. Ignatius Church Father Call
zia was not a man of rugged health, but
he possessed wonderful determination,
and up TO the last he performed his duties
as clergyman. His passing will be sadly
felt by the members of the Ladies' SodaI-
ity of st. Ignatius Church, of which he
was the head. Though simple in his man
ner, the deceased was a man of great
learning and was looked upon as one of
the foremost educators in the Catholic
church on this coast.
On Sunday he>conducted the services of
the sodality inethe chapel of the church
Though very weak he took to his post, his
serious condition being unknown to the
worshipers. He was found in bed yester-
day in an unconscious condition. Medical
attendance was summoned and the pa
tient was revived, but he remained con-
scious for only two hours, heart failure
taking him off peacefully in his last sleep.
Father Calzia was born in the town OF
Chiavari. Italy, about sixty-two years
ago. In 1850 he entered the Society of
Jesus at Genoa. Five years later he came
to California and took up the duties of
teacher of classics in Santa Clara College.
His work in this field was brilliant. In
1877 he went TO the Jesuit House for Theo-
logical Studies at Woodstock, Nd, and
was there ordained to the priesthood He
returned to Santa Clara and became mas
ter of the novices. From 1888 to 1893 he
was superior of the parochial residence
of San Jose, and from that field he came
to this city and devoted the remainder of
his life working for the San Francisco
Ladies Sodality.
The offices for the dead will be recited
at st. Ignatius Church this evening at $50
O'Clock. Funeral mass will be cele brated
tomorrow morning at o'clock. The body
will be taken to Santa Clara on the 1920
a. m. train to be buried in the fathers
plat there.
