IHREE-M MAN POLICE
BOARD LIKELY To
Be RESTORED
sReITMeYeR OPPOSED TO SIN
oLe.HEApEp DEPARTMENT AND
WILL PROBABLY ASK LEGlsLA-
TuRE TO CHANGE SYSTEM.

Now that Philip Breitmeyers elec'
ton as mayor-fs- assured the men
who are Interested in city hall analrs
are specializing as 10 his appoint
ments TO the important places that
will become vacant next Jnly- Mhat
complexities the problem is that Brett
meyer made an independent campaign
and is not hampered by promises OF
help given.
The most important OF these Is the
commissionership OF the department
OF public works. II is The Key 10 po'
litical organization. Commissioners
Haarer has not taken an active part
in the political campaign and MS
friends say that he will not ask for
reappointment, although there is no
denying the fact that he would not re-
fuse one
Haarer has made good commits
sioner in the view of those VINO nave
been in close touch with his admins
tration. He has made a number OF
important reforms and has done an
immense amount OF work. The fact
that he has retained many employees
who are not political workers viii
rather strengthen than hurt his
chances OF reappointment.
The police department is puzzle.
but il is likely that Breitmeyer will
solve ii by asking the legislature to
change the one-man commission TO
three or hve-man board. William I.
Dust and Charles Weber are likely
appointes on the new board IL one Is
created.
The park commissionership may go
TO Myrtle p. Hurlbut or TO VIM. I.
Dust. or Breitmeyer may choose some
man who has not been prominent IN
politics at all.
Ii is very possible that Edward w.
PendletUn. the member OF the water
board whose term will retire. may
retain his position IL not. he will be
succeeded by some prominent busi.
ness man. possibly by John Gillespie.
The first aim OF the new mayor will
be To get his non-partisan street rail-
way commission going. 1t is probable
that the Board Of Commerce and the
real estate board will be literally rep
resented on this commission.

ADMIRAL'S CONDITION SHOWS
LITTLE GAIN
PATIENT WEAK, UNABLE TO

Return to Los Angeles and San Diego
for Celebration Is Out Of Cues
ton, Declares InvaIid's
Physician

Ey Associated Press.
PASO ROBLES HOT SPRINGS,
| April S.-Rear Admiral Robley d.
Evans spent a quiet day. He appeared
to be rather feeble this morning and
seemed somewhat depressed and COM
plained of being weary. Later In the
day, however, he recovered his spirits
and apparently felt very much better.
Surgeon p E. Mcdonald stated to-
night that the admiral had had a very
good day.
In the absence of his son, Lieut..
Evans, who left for Los Angeles this
morning to accompany his mother and
sister to the springs, Admiral Evans
was wheeled about by Lieut.. c. r..
Train. his flag lieutenant, and spent
an hour in, the solariun in the after
noon, where he talked for some time
with w. d. Woolwine, Los Angeles
banker.
Despite the assertions of DR.. p. e.
Mcdonald that Admiral Evans is gain
ing strength rapidly, the impression
prevails around the hotel that the ad-
miral "is fighting the hardest battle of
his life" While relieved from all acute
pain as a result of the treatments at
the springs. it is apparent that he is
still in very weak condition and that
recovery will be matter of many
weeks.
The second day of his arrival he was
out on the lawn watching game OF
croquet and the third day he was
taken for a two hours drive. Since
then he has not left his wheel chair.
1t is also said that his baths have
been reduced because of the admiraPs
weak condition.
DIR. Mcdonald, however, refused to
confirm this. That 1t is utterly out of
the question for Admiral Evans to join
in the celebrations and festivities In
Southern California ports. however,
was admitted by the surgeon, and he
believes that the admiral is beginning
to realize this.
Asked If Admiral Evans was suffer-
ing from any organic disease which
was tending to make his recovery
slow, DIR. Mcdonald was non-cou
initial and declared that he thought the
admiral had done very well since his

WASHINGTON, April S.-President
Roosevelt today made public his letter
of April to the attorney general
directing proceedings by injunction to
compel certain railroads of the south
to furnish equal accommodations to
white and negro passengers.
The text of the presidents letter is
as follows:
ITO the department of justice: l
forward herewith the report of the
interstate commerce commission con-
tanning its order of June 81, 1907, and
the report of the failure of the railroad
company to obey this order, under
date of March 26, 1908, together with a
letter of the commission of April 1,
1905.
1T appears that the Nashville, Chat
tanooga & st. Louis Railway company
has not complied with the order of the
commission to furnish the same facil-
tiles to colored passengers paying first
class fare that are furnished to white
passengers paying first class fare
From time to time complaints have
been made to me by colored people to
the effect that the accommodations
furnished to colored persons on certain
railroads are filthy and inadequate
compared to the same accommodations
furnished to white passengers paying
the same fare.
"The commission has taken what is
anquestionably the right ground; that
where separate accommodations are
provided for white and colored people
the accommodations, for colored pas
sengers shall be as good as those fur
nished to white passengers for the
same money.
''In other words, while there is moth
ing in the law which forbids separate
accommodations, these accommodations
must be equal. This principle of equity
of accommodation is set out expressly
in various statute laws. For instance,
the code of the state of Alabama pro-
vides. that there shall be equal but
separate accommodations for the white
and colored race by providing two or
more passenger cars for each passen-
ger train or by dividing the passenger
cars by partitions.
."rhe action of the commission has
simply been to insist that the accom-
modations be equal in convenience and
comfort for the same money wherever
the separation is made. In this par
ticular case where the railroad has
neglected to comply with the order OF
the commission, it is important that
compliance with this order be imme-
diately obtained. I suggest that you
proceed to enforce this order by IN
junction proceedings unless in your
Judgment some other course is pre-
ferable.

NEWARK. Cal, April s.--An 1s-
months-old child, little Roy Emery, jr.,
was burned to death here yesterday af-
ternoon. and his father, Roy f. Emery,
sustained burns from which he will
probably die in saving his wife who
was also severely burned in a fire that
resulted from the explosion of a kero-
sene stove In the kitchen.
Mrs. Emery mad boiler full of
clothing to be washed over the oil fire,
and the child was asleep on the floor
when she left the room for a moment.
During her absence the explosion oc-
cured and the boiler was overturned.
She rushed back and seized the little
one, but was overcome by the smoke.
Her husband came to the rescue and
dragged both mother and child out of
the house, though he received burns
which are expected to cause his death.
