Of his new once.
schmits refuses 70 recognize the ON
cal existence Of Gallagher and to that
end has instructed voice Sergeant
Peter Fanning to use force II neces-
sary to prevent Gallagher from taking
possession Of the mayors ONCE.
The district attorney says the pos
session Of the rnssor-s office Is not
necessary to the conduct OF the office
itself. Legal developments are e1-
pected.
Mayor Schmitz was given permis-
sion by Judge L.awier this morning for
another visit to the offices Of his at
torneys. but waited in an effort to
have the court extend the scope of his
absence from the county jail 50 as to
permit him to attend to other private
business.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 1S.-Gal-
lagher had made no effort to get pos
session OF the mayors office up to
o'clock. but made the statement to this
effect that he would perform the duties
of mayor whether he could get into th'
building or not, and that possession oi
the office may be obtained by threat
ening the owner with a revocation oi
his lease.

new CIRCULAR
ON HOMESTEAD
Second Applications When
They Are Permissible
by Law

WASHINGTON. June 1S.--The gen.
eral land Office, with the approval Of
the secretary Of the interior has issued
circular to the local land Offices and
the public generally, relating to the
matter of allowance of second home
stead entries. The only general law
under which second homestead entries
may be allowed is that Of April 2S,
1904, which is applicable to those par
ties who made and lost, forfeited or
abandoned their entries prior to the
date Of the act, because of an honest
mistake as to the character of the
land, or an unavoidable complication
of personal or bdsines affairs. Full
Instructions are given in the circular
as to the proofs which must be sub
mitted by those who believe them
selves entitled to second homestead
entries.
The department holds that it Ii
without authority to allow second en-
tries to those who forfeited their en-.
tries subsequent to April %, 1904, ol
to allow second homestead entries II
any case where a valid original entry
was made, in the absence of Legislation
expressly authorizing second home
stead entries.
