The Supervisors Reminded of Prom-~ ises Recently Made to the Contractors. The Associated Creditors of San Fran- cisco are again importuning the Board of Supervisorsto make zood the amounts due the members of the association for goods furnished to the various municipal depart- ments. On Saturday the association sent the following letter on this subject to the Mayor and Board of Supervisors: ¢ decision of the Supreme Court may ned some change of senti ste of the *‘Associated C n Francisco,” y ¢nce of & brief of our position, which has not been affected in the slightest degree by such deci- sion. We have asked for payment for goods supplied the City under the most extraordinary circumstances, The goods we supplied were absolutely necessary to the preservation of the corporate existence of the municipality, but there was no money in hand with which to pay for them. We have contended and we still insist that the (l\xe:tlon whether a demand for goods sup- plied under such extraordinary circumstances 1s & legal demand against the City has never been adjudicated. The question was not raised in the case in which decision has just been handed down by the Supreme Court. We have contended that the Board of Super- visors is empowered to pledge the credit of the City under such exigent circumstances as con- fronted them at the time they pledged to us the credit of the Chi’l and that the constitu- tional limitations on the expenditure of public money never were intended to apply and do 1ot apply to the expenditure of public money for goods absolutely indispensable to the con- tinued existence of the body corporate. The extreme urgency of the demand inour view of the situation justifies the pledging of the credit of the City for such purposes as the Furchumg of Fire Department supplies, coal, hose, feed for horses or the purchese of oo for public cherges, or the purchase of books and stationery for the use of the Board of Superyisors, though the City Treasury be as empty as & contribution box and the funds for the year already overdrawn. We have understood that your honorable body coincided with us in that view of your powers under such extraordinary circum- stances. We trust you will not recede from the position you have taken, but thatyou will pro- ceed under the terms of the tacit under- standing between us and include in the tax levy for 1895-96 an amount sufficient to meet the claim: the creditors of the City,and specially set apart the same for the payment of the debts justly due us. If any citizen doubts the legality of your acts let him question the validity of the assessment. Tuspired by your repeated expressions of a knowledge of the tice of our claims and your expressed conviction that all the equities in the situation are in our favor, we again ask you to adhere to your declared determination 10 do everything in your power to liquidate our claims, leaving® the treacherous act of pleading the limitations to the man who is willing to volunteer for the unsavory service. THE OOLLEGE EXTENSION. Its Professors and Teachers Now Taking Their Summer Vacation. The College Extension Society, composed principally of graduates of the State Uni- versity, has abandoned its work for the summer. The extension was under the leadership of Professor Bernard Moses, and its purpose was to form classes and impart knowledge on the lines of the higher edu- cation to those not in a position to attend college. The headquarters are at 15 South Park in this City. Professor Moses is in Mexico, and the other instructors are in the East and scat- tered all over the Pacific Coast taking their vacations. The College Extension Society will re- sume its work about the middle of August, by which time most of the instructors will have returned. ——————— Red Men’s Installation.

Brother Lackey, during his three year's affiliation, brought over 100 members into the order.

Values in Outlying City Dis- tricts Should Continue Firm. THANSACTIONS OF THE WEEK. Magee’s Summary of Loans and Releases—Umbsen’s Auction for To-Day. In the review of the real estate market for June Thomas Magee & Sons’ publica- tion says: ‘Thereis no present prospect of any great increase in value of any kind of property for the next six months. The best retail property will hold its own, and may show some adyances, but all other real estate is likely to be stationary, while surburban lots may recede a little more in price.” While it is conceded that the values of the best retail and semi-central business property may show some improvement, there is no indication that the price of suburban lots will come down. The recent and continued development of rapid transit, combined with the 5 cent fare to all points within the Cicy limits, is the biggest inducement to_capitalists to invest in outlying districts. They see that if they can get hold of tracts, subdivide them into lots and sell them cheap, people will buy if t_hilproperty can be reached easily and uickly. . There has been so much of this platting and subdividing done, and the railroads have g0 extended their lines in all direc- tions, that it is impossible for one man or set of men to create a select residence dis- trict and enjoy all the business. Com- petition between the various sections, and the financial depression of 1893, have served to bring prices down, while at the same time the owners have added every improvement, such as streets, sidewalks, grades, sewers, water and gas connections, as extra inducements to would-be buyers. The extension and modernization which are going on _among the streetcar lines of this City will murfi minutely the City’s growth.” Few peopie stop to think of the close relgtion existing between street railroads 'and real estate values. The streetcar has done more to create and revolutionize American real estate values than any other one agency. This state- ment would seem almost incredible to people who have always lived in European cities where certain sections of the city remain unchanged for decades. ‘With the prospects of favorable develop- ment of suburban districts, there is an ap- Earent tendency to an-expansion of the usiness portion of San Francisco. Those streets which are but second-class retail streets will become in time equal to the one or two thoroughfares that are now used. It will be a case of history repeat- ing itself, for all the old cities of the East have gone through the same proces: Values are bound to increase throughout the semi-central business district of this City, and that is why, taking everything into consideration, San Francisco offers sg!englid opportunities for investment at this time.

At the annual meeting of the Eureka Loan Association the board of directors | decided to make a very liberal surrender value on the first stock series to induce holders of free shares to surrender their stock. The report of the secretary stated that most of the applications for loans are of such nature that the security offered is not suflicient, and that is therefore, for the safety of the association, necessary to | refuse nine loans out of every ten applied | for. In consequence of this money i cumulating in the treasury of the Eureka Loan Association, and money in the treas- ury means & loss of interest. In other words, it means reduced earnings. To| keep the society on a good and profitable | basis the directors of this association thought it necessary to get rid of the sur-| plus money by buying in the oldest series | of stock. The officers elected for the ensuing year | were: Presidel William Nicol; secre- | tary hfeld; treasurer, Daniel | Meyer; directors—Eugene W. Levy, James H. Btevens, D. Hirschfeld, Emil Meyer, | James A. White, J. A. Remmel, George W. Brooks and Witliam Nicol. At the annual meeting of the Golden NEW TO-DAY. BANY The 04 Reliable Specialist.
