HIS MOTIVES ARE BASE

San Francisco. May 25.--Patrick Calhoun last night issued long statement addressed to the American people in which he said ::
 'The evidence is now complete that self-confessed criminals have been re- tained in the board of supervisors to do the bidding of Spreckels and his fellows. In the language of one of the prosecutors, they are merely good dogs Their evidence has been pur- chased and their ,. services secured through immunity contracts
 T charge that the motives of Mir Spreckels and his associates are base and malicious; that his plans are sell fish and injurious to the welfare of this community, that they seek through the assassination of character to injure the United Railroads, and further their own financial plans and that inspired strikes, violence, destruction of prop erty, boycotts, and these indictments are each a part of Spreckels' plan to contiscate the property of the United Railroads to replace our street rail- roads by lines owned by Spreckeis and to that end to control the politics of San Francisco .1-

IN A TALLY-HO COACH.
Railway Officials Looked Over Trol-
 ley Improvements in This City.

Waterbury was honored to-day by a visit of number of officials of the New York, New Haven and Hart ford railroad, who came to this city this morning about 9:30 on a, special train. In the party were General Manager Samuel Higgins, General Superintendent o. NJ. Shepherd, Vice-President Campbell. General Freight Agent F. S. Holbrook. Gen. eral Auditor J. NJ. Tomlinson, c. S. Lake, the new superintendent. who was instrumental in breaking the re- cent freight blockade with the aid of Agents White and Leary, Assistant Superintendent Joseph H. Dunn and Travelling Agent M. J. Leary.
 They spent much of the time in this cit ythis morning and were chaperoned by Ralph N. Blakeslee, who placed his tally-ho, which is only used on rare occasion. at their dis posal. They not only looked over the improvements that the company is now making in this city, but this afternoon went on their special to Torrington to see how the situation looked up there.
 A couple of the party were asked if their visit had any special signifi- canoe, but replied that they were here simply on general business. Since the improvements have been started in Waterbury the officials had never taken a good look at them un- til to-day.
 They seemed pleased with what they saw in this city and were glad to know that the freight situation had been cleared up. They attract ed considerable attention as they rode in Mir Blakeslee's tally-ho drawn by four in hand, and Ralph was the happiest in the party. At press hour they had not returned from Torrington.
