Sunday Excursion Trains Discontinued

Owing to the preponderance of the hoodlum-element at Sunday picnics in the neighborhood of San Francisco, the Southern Pacific and other railroad companies have decided to run no Sunday excursion trains from that city this summer. The company has also issued an order prohibiting the selling of liquor at its stations, except at the principal eating stations. It is also considering the advisability of closing all the bars on the ferry-boats on San Francisco Bay.
