THE COLUSA-GLENN COUNTY CASE. Judge Johnson Sustains the Latter-'s Demurrer. Conditions Under Which a Political Subdivision of the State Can be Sued. Superior Judge Johnson yesterday sustained the demurrer to the amended complaint in the case of the County of Colusa against Glenn County. The action was brought by the plaintiff for money had and received, and the de fendant interposed a demurrer on the ground that the complaint did not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action. After stating these facts, and some others leading up to the suit the court tsays the allegation in the complaint of the presentation of the claim to the Board of Supervisors of Glenn County, and its rejection by that body, would be good as between individuals, but the question arises is it good as between counties—political subdivisions of the State? "The State and its political subdi visions cannot be sued except as au thorized by statute and general lan guage creating new remedies or pre scribing procedure have never been held to authorize such actions." (Whittaker vs. Tuolumne County, 90 Cal., 101; Mayshofer vs. Board of Education, 87 Ca1..110.) While Subdivision 1, Section 4, of the County Government Act provides that a county may be sued, it can only mean upon such liabilities as created by the statute, and he who enters into litiga tion with the county must bring him self within the provisions of such stat ute. Sections 4. 5, 6 and 25 of the same Act prescribe in what cases the county may incur a liability, and if the liabil ity in question does not come within the provisions of some of the sections, or some other express provision of the Legislature, it cannot be maintained. It appears from the allegation that Glenn County has received certain money for the benefit of Colusa County. It does not appear from what source it received the money, or in what manner it holds it for the benefit of Colusa County. If it expects to recover, it should" make its charge broad enough to show that it comes within some vision of the law that would permit such a liability to occur. In other v. the liability of a political subdivisi a State being restricted, he who s redress must show that he comes with in some of the exceptions, which is not done in this case. The objection urged to the allegation as to presentation of the claim in this is disposed of by the foregoing opinion. If the allegation is sufficiently bioad to bring the ease within some of the acts permitted by statute, then the succeeding count relating to the first -R-ould be explicit. But I am inclined to the opinion that that allegation is good. In the case of Rice vs. Trinity County (10 Cal.) the al legation is nearly the same on this ques tion as at bar. That case went before the Supreme Court on a demurrer, and while it does not appear from the de cision that the question was raised as to this particular count, still it was unchallenged, and the appellate court overruled the demurrer. The demurrer to the amended com plaint will be sustained. CITY BOARD OF EDUCATION M_a_ Wilcox Promoted :md Mi — YVeizel Elected Substitute. The City Board of Education held an adjourned meeting last night, all the tors being present except Sher burn. The Committee on Course of Study, in relation to the systematic study of mu sic, reported that, in their judgment, the time had not arrived to take it up. The suggestion made by F. M.

A PEEPING TOM Gang-it at a Trie* That Should bt- v Punishable Offense. For some time past Samuel Morris, the J-street stationer, bas been an- I i by the actions of a man Di Miller, whose custom it has been to get beneath the grating in front of Morris' store for se of studying the anatomy of ladies who -d to look in the show windows. Yesterday Morris called in Officer Fisher, and the latter says he went to rear of the baeetnent ami Miller gazing up through the grating, as aX i he placed him law does not pro vide any penalty for thus taking ad vantage of vi • g members of minine persuasion, so the prisoner charged with disturbing Morris' peace. Miller is said to be a man of family. Cryptic Rite Of Reemasonry. Occidental Council of Royal and Se lect Masters, held its election last even ing, with the foili ill: R. J.

Daniel West died yesterday morning at the residence of Mrs. E. M. Skaggs, at Seventh and X streets. He was one of the oldest and best known conductors in the employ of the Southern Pacific Company, having come to this coast in 1808 from Chicago, where he had been employed on the same railroad running out of that city as the late A. N. Towne. There was no more popular conductor in the State than Dan West, as he was familiarly called, and he was never known to have an enemy, his qualities; of head and heart making him hosts of friends wherever he was known. His first railroad work on this coast was on the California and Pacific road, from Sacramento to Vallejo. and when the Central Pacific Company assumed control of that road he removed to this city, where he has resided ever since. In recent years, when able to work, he ran the local passenger train from here to Redding. At one time he accumu lated considerably money, but lost it through an unfortunate investment. For some years his health has been failing and latterly he has been unem ployed. He has been confined to the house for some weeks and his friends realized that the end was near and were prepared for the announcement of his death. Mr. West was born in Fairfield, Herk imer County, N. Y„ and was 03 years old. He was a member of Union Lodge, F. and A. ML, and Sacramento Chapter. R. A. M.. the former of which will have charge of his funeral. His remains will be taken to Oakland for interment. Nine years ago he, Captain William Siddons and Wyman McMitchell were talking of death and of the chances for survival and agreed that if either of them died, the others would act as pall-bearers at his funeral. McMitchell afterward died and West and Siddons acted as pall-bearers. West's death leaves Siddons as the only survivor to carry out the compact. Weather Notes. The Weather Bureau reports show the highest and lowest temperatures yesterday to have been 50 degrees and 44 degrees, with gentle southerly winds and partly cloudy weather prevailing. The wind during the forenoon and afternoon for a short time was from the northwest. The barometrical readings at 5 a. m. and 5 p. m. were 29.78 and 29.US inches, i espectively. The highest and lowest temperatures om- year ago yesterday were 55 degrees and 45 degrees, with ._4 of an inch, and one year ago to-day ."<'> degrees and -10 degrees, with LlO inches of rain. The rainfall during this last storm was .00 of an inch, making for this sea son 4.45 inches, as against 10.10 inches to a corresponding date last season. The river still stands at 9% feet, but no doubt will rise some to-day, as there was quite a heavy precipitation in the upper Sacramento Valley, there being 1.26 inches at Red Bluff in the twenty four hours ending at 5 a. m. yesterday. BRIEF NOTES Next Tuesday the Southern Pacific pay-car will be here to liquidate the wages of the company's employes. An operation for appendicitis has been performed on F. J. King, who is under treatment at the Railroad Hos pital. Richard Fisk, who was so seriously injured by falling from an electric light pole some time ago. is improving and hopes are entertained for his recovery. The Football Gome. If it does not rain too hard this after there will be a great game of foot ball at Agricultural Park between the High School team of this city and tha>t of the Stockton College. The game will begin at 2 o'clock. In the published list of the players on Thursday the name of Charles Reith, half-back of the Sacramentos, was ac cidentally omitted. Petition for Letters. W. B. Miller has petitioned the Su perior Court for letters of administra tion on the estate of C. W. Knight, de l. The estate consists of per sonal property valued at about $200. Christmas Charities.
