Court Asked to Prevent Super

Especial Dispatch TO The Call

REDWOOD CITY, May 11-Argu-
ments for a temporary injunction to
pravent the sale by the board of su-
pervisors of a franchise for a street
railway at Easton will be heard by
Judge Buck tomorrow.
Residents of Easton object to the
franchise because it would permit the
operation of steam railroad; two
tracks might be laid on a street; there
is no provision for the care of the
streets, and the franchise is for too
long period, so years.
1t has been alleged that the super
visors have no Jurisdiction because
when accepting the plats of Easton
they exempted themselves from liabil-
ity for accidents and from the care of
the streets.

STEEP and LONG
Denman School Too High in
Altitude for Girls, Declares
Bannerman

President Bannerman of the board of
education is opposed to the use of the
proposed Denman school, Hayes and
Pierce streets, as a girls school. 1t
is up a hill Of which there are varying
opinions as to the steepness, and he
feels that it would be injurious to the
health of the girls to climb this hill
or the long flight of steps which must
lead to the entrance.
The plans have been approved and
the contracts let for this school, and
the sole question pending is as to
whether it will be the Denman school
for girls or whether it will become a
boys school. In order to settle this
matter, the members of the board of
education, the superintendent of
schools and representative from the
city architects office will visit the site
this morning at $3.50 o'clock to discuss
the elevation, a proposed concrete re-
tanning wall S5 feet high and other
details.
G. T. Colmesnil, first assistant to the
acting city architect, and A. L. Wors-
wick of the same Office appeared before
the board yesterday with preliminary
sketches for three schools, the John
SWEET, in McAllister street near Cough,
to have Is rooms and to cost $685. 900;
the Lincoln. Harrison street near
Fourth, II rooms, to cost $77, 1000, and
the Harrison, Jamestown and Railroad
avenues, rooms, to cost $4,000.
These plans were approved by the
board.
