so CENT RATE ON
LUMBER RESTORED
New Tariff on Shipments East
Will Go Into Effect
December 8

The lumber rate has been settled
finally, and on December 8 the new
railroad tariff, which is the so cent
Missouri river scale, will be put into
effect. Lumbermen have been per-
turbed over the situation, and the news
that the rate has been put back to
where it belongs will be received with
pleasure throughout the state
A well known traffic official, in
speaking of the matter. said:
California lumber dealers have been
greatly exercised because they have
been compelled to pay higher rates
than the north Pacific coast mills on
shipments of their products to eastern
points. This was due to the fact that
the north Pacific coast rates were not
advanced at the same time that they
were advanced here, owing to the in
junction proceedings instituted by the
lumber dealers there.
"On account of the requirements of
the interstate commerce commission it
has taken a considerable time to re-
store the California rates back to their
original bases, and in line with the
commissions ruling, but it has at last
been accomplished, and the trade will
no doubt be glad to know that the
new rates. that put California where
it ought to be. will be effective on De-
cember 3. This is the so cent Missouri
river scale"

Butler Takes Blame
for Six Points

BERKELEY. Nov. 17.-In a state
ment issued to the student body this
morning. Captain Ralph Butler of the
blue and sold Rugby team which went
down to defeat before the cardinal, u
to 8. last Saturday. declared that while
his team was collectively responsible
for the six points scored against them,
he alone was responsible for the ad-
ditiOnal six points made by Stanford.
Buffers statement. which is unique
in college history, recited that Califor-
MAS defense was perfect enough to
prevent further scoring after the first
half. but that near the close of the
contest he ordered the open style of
play, with the hope that by dribbling
the blue and gold would tie the score.
He said:
straight defensive playing could no
longer bring victory, and with five min
utes TO play the California captain
ordered that the game be made as open
as possible. that every chance be taken.
1T was but a bare chance for victory
and one full of danger, as the result
showed. The California team was asked
to play a style of game at which Stan
ford excelled, and the players tried
with all that was in them to play that
game-every man fought to the last
whistle. The team as a whole is re-
spOnsible for a 6 to score-the Cali
fornia captain is responsible for Stan
fOrd's last points.

Rugby Union Settles.
School Dispute
PaIO Alto and San Jose High
Ordered to Play Games for
Championship
By William Unmack

At a meeting of the Rugby union at
the Olympic club last night the protest
of the San Jose high school to the
championship being awarded to Palo
Alto high was upheld and the teams
ordered to play three games, the best
two out of three to decide the winner.
The meeting was largely attended
and the matter was bitterly argued at
length.
The trouble arose over an omission in
the minutes of previous meeting ana
the fact that a statement that the
game between Palo Alto and the win
ners of the San Jose-Sa Clara game
had been declared of.
Such was not the case and on the
motion of Lafferty, the teams were or
dered to play three games. Palo Alto
and San Jose were represented by their
managers. Tramultolo of San Jose was
very enthusiastic over his team meet
ing the Palo Alto boys, and when the
motion to play the three games was
put, Stanley of Palo Alto voted for II.
The first game will probably be
played on THANKSGIVING day.
On Friday the Barbarians leave on

A very strong combination is to make
the trip, and it is not likely that the
sagebrush team will be strong enough
to take it into camp. The Nevada
team, however, has been showing Splen-

last Saturday defeated a rather strong
team from Santa Clara college with
Manager Price will also make the
trip with the Barbarians, and J. Wilson
was appointed by the referees union
as the official for the game.
The Barbarian lineup VIII be as fol-

Immediately after their return from
Reno the Barbarians go into active
training for their. championship game
with the Olympic club. This game is
attracting a great deal of attention and
will be played on California field on
Thanksgiving day.

Deny SECRET TRUST
IN PARK REQUEST
Commissioners Resist Attempt
to Break the Will of
HOnora Sharp

The second attempt Of the cousins
and nephews and nieces of the late
Honora Sharp to break her will, in
which she bequeathed 100000 to Park
Commissioners Reuben II. Lloyd and
Adolph B. Spreckels, which they have
announced they will spend in erecting
a memorial gate at the entrance of
the Panhandle, came up for trial In
Judge SeawelIs court yesterday. The
first contest was in the probate court,
where an attempt to have the will re-
fused probate was defeated. This
second effort is by means of suit in
equity, through which the disinherited
relatives seek to have the court de-
clare that the s2O0,00O in the hands of
Lloyd and Spreckels and also the resi-
due of the estate in the hands of
Samuel c. Murphy, executor, from
which the will directs him to give
$4,000 to the Kings Daughters Home
for Incurables and $4,000 to the Sal
vation Arms is held in trust for the
relatives.
Honora Sharp was the widow OF
George +. Sharp, we'll known attor-
ney She died in February, 1905. Her
will stated that owing to the fact that
her husbands property had greatly
enhanced in value by reason of the
establishment of the park she had in
tended to leave the money she inherit
ed from him in trust for the erection
of memorial gate. But, she said
she had abandoned that idea because
there was doubt as to whether or not
it would be a lawful trust, and she
devised to Lloyd and Spreckels 5000, 900
without directions.
SECRET TRUST DENIED
Charles S. Wheeler. attorney for
Lloyd. Spreckels and Murphy in the
suit, argued yesterday that the validi-
ty of the will having been upheld by
the probate court the relatives were
debarred from setting up their claim
in an equity suit, but the judge de-
eided to hear the case. The conten-
tion of the relatives that secret
trust was established is denied by
Lloyd and Spreckels, who hold that
under the will they could, if they
pleased. use the money themselves or
throw it in the bay. However. realiz-
ing Mrs. Sharp's wish, they have de-
cided to expend. it in the erection of a
memorial gate.
The relatives making the contest
are James, Grace, Catherine. John,
Belle and Cassie O'Donnell, Margaret
and Phillip Gallagher, Anne GiIIispie
and Giles Blake.
