There was a very lively; meeting held at

of resolutions "which referred to: the way .

'.'■ a. so been made acquainted with 'the fact that

• ■ Resolved, That Company F, Fifth Infantry,
■ Second Brigade, N. ii. C, is opposed to such
.'. ■• .'use of tneir uniform, and respectfully. ask that
; " our superior officers exert themselves to the
. ..end that a similar law be passed by, our next
fctate Legislature.
These resolutions were In t roil need -he
fore camp and at the time caused much
favorable criticism, owing to this fact that
the guardsmen have long wished for an
opportunity to make an effective com
plaint.
"It's a shame," said an officer present
to-night, "the way our uniform has been
abused. Why, I was out back of Oakland
one night and 1 actually, saw a small boy,
dressed in our regulation uniform, milk
ing a cow. He probably came in posses
sion 31 the uniform through some of these
semi-military organizations, who now
wear our uniforms.
"Let it be understood that we are not
making a ii hi against any organization,
we simply want our uniform protected
and respected."
The projectors of this new movement
hope that all the companies of the State
will follow suit and by an overwhelming
force of numbers compel some action to
be taken.
As far as can be learned ail the officers
are in favor of action being taken, in fact
they are more so than the men, as they
say it is very unpleasant after years of
hard work and study to see boys wearing
their uniforms which display the same
rank and in many cases even higher rank
than thei, own.
Other reasons were advanced to-night
why the uniforms should be protected.
Such organizations as the Coxey army
adopted the same style of uniform and on
the strength of the uniform, it is said,
were accorded privileges which would
have ceen refused had the truth been
known. Ballington Booth's new army
comes so near wearing the militia uni
form that their officers are very often
.taken for guardsmen. The Boys' Brigade
have identically the same unilorm for the
enlisted men and a very slight change for
. the commissioned officers. As their rules
' ore not castiron some officers overstep
thorps Ives and come out with a regular
militia officer's uniform, save for a black
background instead of a white back
ground in the shoulder-strap.
.'The matter will also be brought before
Company A of tula city and Company G of
Alameda.

. THE : ' DOUBLE OBIME.
Th" Girl Slay Recover,; but Lad tie's
. Chances Are Considered Slim.
ALAMEDA, Cal., Aug. ;3.— lt is said
by the attending physician that Clara
FaHrner, -who' shot Charles Ladue last
night with murderous intent and then
turned her pistol on herself, may recover.
In that case, she stands a good chance of
having a charge of murder to answer.
Dr. Lubbock, the physician in attendance
on the wounded man, has not yet been
able to locate the bullet, but is satisfied
that it penetrated the spinal column and
injured thespinal cord. The body of the
young man is paralysed from the breast
down, and : . there is no other way to ac
count for. the symptoms. He considers
that Ladue's chance lor recovery is not
good.
Ladue is partly conscious, but no one is
allowed to see him or talk with him.
There are no new developments in the
case, and it is just as already related. It
was a case of tiring of a girl whose repu
tation was not the best, and her vengeance
for desertion. She Is one of the girls on
whose account Andrew Frank lost his li
cense as a saloon-keeper. She had been
seen to go Into his place, and it was proved
that Frank sold liquor to her, as well as
to others.

now alleges that this contract has been
violated. Mrs. Mary Louis denies this
and alleges that Louis paid the $25 per
month during his lifetime and she has
done the same since. Attorney R. B.
Tappan, who has made the payments,
supports Mr.-. Mary Louis' side of the
story.

THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 4, 1897.
BRINGS A SUIT
FOR A FAT FEE
Judge Hamilton Asks Fifty
Thousand From Mer-
ritt's Heirs.
Many Attorneys Testify to the
Work Done by Mrs. Gar
celon's Adviser.
Harry Merritt Will Not Pay Unless
He Is Compelled to Do So
by the Court.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,)
908 Broadway, Aug. 3. )
Judge Noble Hamilton thinks he is en
titled to $50,000 for his services in the
estate of the late Dr. Merritt. The claim
is an old one, for Harry P. Merritt as
executor of the will has refused to pay the
attorney's bill. ffi*Mj
The case came up in Judge Hall's court
this rooming, and many attorneys were
on hand. Judge Hamilton was present
looking a little more venerable than ever.
He was represented by his attorney, R.
M. Soto of San Francisco; Attorney Joseph
A. Joyce, a former partner of Judge Ham
ilton, and W. W. Foote were present as
witnesses, and Messrs. Heed and Nus
baumer represented the executor, Harry
P. Merritt.
Harry Merritt has already paid Judge
Hamilton $7366, and the suit is to recover
the remaining $42,634.
Attorney Joyce was the first witness,
ami he told in detail of the manner in
which he and Judge Hamilton several
years ago worked over the various
stages of the Merritt-Garcelon litigation.
He was shown a brief which had been
drawn to prevent the litigation and to en
able a speedy distribution of the estate to
be made. He would not speak positively
about it, but after lunch said he had re
freshed his memory regarding facts and
dates, and was convinced from the
phraseology that the brief had been pro
pared by him. The witness told of his
meetings with Mr?. Garcelon and of bis
dealings with the late Stephen Purring
ton.
In all of the transactions Judge Hamil
ton prepared the rough draft and Attor
ney Joyce completed them. The plaintiff
sought to show that the value of his serv
ices should be judged not altogether by
the gr.at amount of work done but by the
saving effected to the estate because of
those services.
W. W. Foote told of his connection with
the Merritt litigation and of conversations
with Judge Hamilton and Mrs. Garcelon.
The lady had told Mr. Foote that Judge
Hamilton was her private attorney, and
that she would acknowledge anything he
miiht do.
The taking of testimony will be resumed
to-morrow morning.

in love with a bonnie lass named Bella
White, but not being in a financial posi
tion to wed her at that time a-ked her to
wait for him, which she has done. Com
ing to Berkeley he secured a position as
j .nitor and by con-nan toil and economy,
sweetened by the thoughts of a hapi y
future, Jimmy has saved up a snug little

entend last year from the Berkeley High.
A lar. c number of the ' 96 graduates who
have remained out a year will enter, thus
swelling the list of entrants to about sixty.
Impure Water for Sprinkling;.
BERKELEY, Cal., Aug. 3.— Health
Officer Rowoll has concluded that what Is
supposed to be salt water being used on
the streets of West Berkeley is impure.
The truth of the matter is that the water,
instead of being pumped directly from the
bay for the use of the sprinkler, is drawn
from a pool at the mouth of Strawberry
Creek, which catches tbe tidewater as it
comes in and forms a constant receptacle.
hey Will Return.
BERKELEY, Cal., Aug. 3.— Captain
Haskell of the University football team
and Theodore Barnes, manager of the
track team, have sent word from Alaska
that they will return to Berkeley before
the opening of the fall term. No news
having been received from them lor over
two months, it was feared for a time that
they had got the Klondyke lever and
gone to the gold fields.
To Assist Students.
BERKELEY. Cal., Aug. 3— W. W.
Bristol, manager of the Students' Aid
Society, has returned to Berkeley and
will engage in assisting incoming students
to secure employment and homes. Last
year the organization aided needy
students to the amount of several thou
sand dollars' worth of employment. A
register of boarding-bouses will be kept
and a second-hand book emporium
opened.
Influx of Students.
BERKELEY, Cal., Aug. 3.— The streets
of Berkeley present a busy scene. Already
there has been a notable influx of students
and their families, though the university
does not open until next week.
The real estate and house-renting
agencies have been taxed to the uttermost
to supply the demand for homes.
BUILD BICYCLE PATHS.
Tax All Wheels for This Purpose' Is
the Plan of Superintendent
Sillier.
OAKLAND, Cal., Aug. 3.— Street Super
intendent M. K. Miller isengaged in draft
ing an ordinance compelling bicyclists to
pay an annual tax. With this in view he
has addressed letters to several city en
gineers upon ths subject. The following
extracts are taken from R. H. Thomson's
reply of Seattle:
All the bicycle paths in this city have been
constructed by private enterprise, involving
no assessment upon any ol the property
through which they run. Most ot our paths
have been built by the Queen City Good Roads
Club, a local organization oi in,: wheelmen.
The funds required lor the work were pro
vided, largely, by individual subscriptions,
supplemented by a proportion from tne city of
80 per cent of tne license fees collected upon
bicycles. This license feo ($1 per annum upon
each wheel) was inaugurated this year by re
quest of the wheelmen's organization, the
main purpose being to provide a fund for the
exnr^bs purpose of constructing cycle paths.
The 20 per cent retained by the city covers the
cost of tags, registration, etc.
The average original cost of such a path is
5 cents per lineal foot, exclusive of bridges
and cinder. We find, however, that it Is
uecessnry to supplement the original coat con
siderably at certain points where heavy
curves demand extra width and elevation.
Tnls year the Queen City Good Komis Club has
expended, altogether, nearly $3000 in con
structing about ten miles ol new path com
plete.
Scarcely any difficulty has been met with in
securing the rights of way. For the most part
the paths run through an unimproved vicin
ity. No attempt has b-.en made to secure
regular conveyances of rights of way simply a
right- of entry and maintenance, subject to
the right of the owner of the property, at any
time, on stipulated notice to require removal.

REAL ESTATE
MARKET REVIEW
Good Showing of Western
Addition Eesidence
Property.
Proposals to Make Gold Dis
coveries Beneficial to
Local Realty.
Building and Loan Association Items.
Ee view of the Records— Ran
dom Notes.
Although June, July and the early Dart
of August are generally considered to form
the dullest period of the year in the real
estate line, the demand for good paying
business properties continues fair. Tie
financial plummet seems to have sounded
the greatest depth and a good outlook is
ahead.
Moderate-sized dwellings seem to be in
the greatest demand at present and the
prices continue firm, especially in the
Western Addition and Pacific Heights
districts. Some choice lots in the vicinity
of Green and Pierce streets have recently
been filled in and are now on the market,
with the understanding that a few have
already been bargained for on an option.
In his San Francisco Real Estate Circu
lar, Thomas Magee gives the total vaiue
of realty sales for the first six months of
the current year at $6,447,041; compared
with a total for ihe corresponding period of
1896 hi $7,333,883. For the current year in
vestment in Western Addition property
largely predominated that oi any other sec
tion. Its aggregate was $1,892,974, or more
than a fourth of the City's total.
Mortgages and releases for last month are
summarized by the same authority as follows:

Real estate men are highly elated over the
prospect* for a revival In the values of real
estate on this coast in the general good times
that are expected to follow In the wake ot the
new tariff, and especially of the discovery
of' the Alaskan gold fields. It has been sug
gested that a company should at once be
formed In this City to establish a new steam
ship line to Juneau, build a railroad trom that
point to water communication across the
Cbllcoot Pass, and place light-draught Ireignt
and passenger steamboats on- the waterways
into the new mines at British Columbia. Oth
erwise It is believed that the Puget Sound
port; will do so, and pull away trade that
would materially lessen hard times In Cali
fornia.

three of stone, the whole to be handsome in
architecture and modern In construction.

calf was appointed receiver of F. 0. :con
yesterday by Judge Ellsworth. Bonds were
placed at $5000, and his duties will extend
to. two-third oL. the defendant's interests
in the Bacon Land and Improvement
Company.
This was in Judge Ellsworth's decision
in the suit of Mrs. Bacon against her hus
band for a divorce. The other questions
involved were an increase of alimony lor
the support of Mrs. Bacon and her family
and an increase of attorney fees, besides
the receiver part. The alimony was re
duced to $210— $40 [ less than it had . been.
This, the ctfuri held, would have to be
made up by the earnings of a minor child
which was working. .
The increase of attorney fees was denied.
Thirty days were allowed the attorneys
in which to file a bill of exceptions.
