Sang the star Number.
The guests of honor, headed by
State Deputy Reddin of Denver, and
on each side Of him the officers of
Cheyenne council and Laramie coun-
ell, were seated in the center of the
hall and on each side were the visit
ing Knights and the newly made
Knights OF the day. The song OF vel
come, by Miss Minnie Burke, to the
visiting Knights could be better appre-
ciated by hearing the applause than by
trying to describe it in words. The
star number, THE Holy City," sung by
Miss Burke, and also the Japanese
love song, were long and loudly ap-
plauded.
Girls Make Usual Hit.
The University girls made a most
decided hit, being encored again and
again. In fact, the only thing that
seemed to worry the chairman OF the
arrangement committee was that the
visiting Knights might kidnap the en-
tire club, a thing which by all means
must be guarded against.
The young ladies' then rendered a
farewell selection, much to the sorrow
of the visiting Knights, who seemed to
think the girls should stick around
awhile"
Addresses by Visitors.
After the banquet and musicale had
been attended to in a way that was
satisfactory TO all concerned, Toast
master Hassett Of Saratoga took
charge, and while the smoke wreathes
were curling merrily toward the ceiling
a number Of well appreciated speeches
were made by many of the visiting
Knights and members of the class, and
BY State Deputy Redding and Mr.. Har-
rington of Denver, whose smiling 'coun-
tenance will be long remembered by
many of yesterdays Knights and the
class.
Are There With Goods.
From start to finish everything went
as smooth as clockwork and 1t was
with regret that the Knights departed
from the banquet hall at a late hour.
All visiting knights were unanimous in
saying hat Laramie council No. 113S,
Knights of Columbus, is there with

BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
BERKELEY, CAL, Oct. 1.-Professor
Jacques Loeb, the famous biologist OF the
university, in bulletin issued yesterday
from the office of the president makes
the statement that he believes the germ
of life can be discovered, provided the
chemical reactions surrounding the
process OF fertilization are investigated.
The announcement of Professor Loeb
has been received with great interest by
the university men Of science as dis
tinct step In the discovery of the pro-
duction of living matter from the In
animate.
The university savant takes the stand
that all that differentiates living matter
from the machines which he has produced
in the laboratories of the university is
the power of the animate objects of de-
veloping and reproducing themselves au-
tomically. All that is therefore necessary,
he declares, is for the scientists to dis
cover the chemical process which causes
the development Of the egg into the EN-
bryo.

motion of it's own attorneys that 1t be
made a party defendant to the receiver
ship recently ordered against the New

Attorney General Jackson began ac-
tfon today calling for the dissolution of
the New York City railway and for the
appointment of a receiver for the Met
ropolitan street Railway company.
The application was made before the
state supreme court while previous re-
ceivership actions had been taken be-

Justice Ford granted an order for
the companies to show cause why the
special actions should not be granted
and also granted an order for officers
of the company to show cause why they
should not render an accounting.

PERJURY IN FORD TRIAL HIS
UNDoING
Present Railroad Commissioners and
Associate on Board of Super
vlsors Must Stand
Trial

Special to The Herald
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1.-Andrew NJ
Wilson, state railroad commissioner, and
formerly a member of the rascally board
of supervisors in San Francisco, was in
dicted today by the grand jury on the
charge of accepting and agreeing to ac-
cept bribes from the United Railroads
and other public utilities companies. VIII
sons associate in boodling operations,
Michael Coffey, was also indicted on the
same charges.
Wilson and Coffey had been promised
immunity by the prosecution, but in the
trial of Ford both testified that no prom
ise of bribes had been held out by Wilson
to his fellow members or the board 9th
er members of the board testified to the
contrary.
1t is the belief of the graft prosecution
in San Francisco that Wilson and Coffey
deliberately committed perjury. Their OBJ
ject in doing so is not -.nown.
Assistant District Attorney Heney and
the grand jury had session today and
as result Coffey and Wilson were in
dicted. -~
This is the first breach in the integrity
of the immunity contracts given the men,
bers of the former board of supervisors
by the bribery graft prosecution, ana are
supposed to be punishment of the two
boodlers for not testifying as they had
agreed to do.
