Producers fniling to find market for fruits in the fresh form will preserve them by canning, drying, etc., at home, and this will increase empioyments in the country, as well as enhance the profit of the producer. To sur- { render the op jortunity of adding something to the value of fruit by drying it or canning it into the hands of the large canneries, is an un- wisdom which tends 10 impoverish the cul- tivator of the soil. Vegetables, as well as fruits, can_be cauned and preserved in that way for shipment to other markets. There are benefits to ensue from the establish- mentof a free market of an indirect nature which are too important to be overlooked. The productiveness of our soil would long ere this have given us a large population if there had Dbeen more profit arising out_of its cnltivation. By the census cf 1890 we had 1,250,000 in- habitants in California. Of these 870,000 reside in the cities, owns and villages, over 100,000 are engnged in mining and. the remehder may be credited to agricultural pursuits. The rich garden lands of our valleys are capable of subdivision into five, ten and twenty-acre tracts, and these, under a proper distribution, one which does not rob the producer for the benefit of the middle man, would have given us a population of at least one million more than we now have during our existence a&s an American settlement. had crossed the intervening fifty-five yards | their ability to gain_ground insured them to the Olympic goal for their second | the zame after the first few exhibitions of The Reliance team won the charity foot- | i touchdow hirteen minutes from the | their strength. il 1 3 ¥ The suggestion, which first appeared in ball game with the Olympic eleven vesser- Tue CALL, for a free market in San Fran- | afternoo: C 1 <. scoring | Second kick-off and justas time was up| Among those vpresent were: Judge J:nvll()tvi‘lrfll dcn':r:i m}]’nrl\vtl ”0;__”‘5 for the first hai ZL was Hanlon, Mec- | Slack, Hugh Tevis, Robert Eyre, Southard uchdowns and a goa’in the Hrst | y,.y,, Hanlon, Oliver and Taylor through | Hoffman, Miss Kearney, Miss Wagner, | out the State and has brought to TiE Cary | e scored in the second line or round the tackles. ried the goal-kick and suc- cecded, the sgore standing ten points to' Mr. and Mr: Miss Dean, W. R. Townsend, Mrs. E. W. ownsend, Judge Hunt, Edward Pringl Theodore F. Payne, David and to W. H. Mills, the gentleman who made the suggestion through its columns, a great many inquiries regarding the pro- ject. Thowas Prather, a banker of Oak- land, recently addressed William H. Mills, asking for further information, and the following reply of Mr. Mills gives many | additional points of interest regarding the enterprise: 1A produce exchange in the first instance was for the purpose of exchanging the things which one man raised for things which he did not, but which his neighbor raised. This free | ex-change was the precedent of the modern | market. In the cities of Europe there are free markets —places where people come and ata mere nom- | inal figuré have an opportunity of offering | what they have produced either in exchange | for other products or for money. | In modern times, barter having disappeared | from our commercial system, the rule is to ex- change for money, but the producer and the consumer are brought together. The first sdvantage arising out of an open, frec market is the inspection of the goods of- fered. Stale and unwholesome goods are not permitted to be sold. This possesses & sani- tary value. Unripe fruit is prolific of ail- | ments, white stale fruits or vegetables in their | earlier stages of decay are also unwholesome. | A iree public market puts the quality of the | products offered under inspection and thus conserves the health of the city. The second great advantage arises out of the public supervision of quantities. Inthe open markets of the East a man who offers wood by the cord with less than a full cord of wood is fined. Hay must have the weight that is de- clared by him who offers it. All these matters have been under successful conduct in the various Eastern cities, notably in Philadelphia | and Cincinnati. | These features would be indispensable to a | frec market in San Francisco, but we want still | another. We want a market under such super- | vision as to furnish to the raisersof produects | daily information as to the demand. This ne feature would be peculiar to California, and it | is doubtful whether it would be of much value anywhere else, The vegetables and fruits which cannot find & local market had better be left in the ground, upon the vines and upon the trees. Nobody expects the producers to raise thines for nothing, and there is no danger that the producer will get rich. The inherent tendency of modern commer- clal methols is to congest money in the com- mercial classes, or what is known as the middle class. The wealth generated by the industry of people in modern times goes to the cltiés, becanse the labor employed in the cultivation of the soil is rude and illy pald, while skilled labor is more adequaiely warded. Here in California we can raisc g den stuffs all the year round. We have straw berries in every month of the vear; cabbage, beets, lettuce and onions in their jresh form are in the marketsall the time. Our climate | and soil lend themselves to gardening so naturally that living in Californie should be | cheaper than anywhere else in the world. | Cheap living promotes our productive capac- y. It is a distinct aid to us in the compe tition which the world offers, and it must be | Ve e | I = i | | | | | | | 1 [ J | | | A SCRIMMAGE IN THE RELIANCE - OLYMPIC GAME AT CENTRAL PARK FOR CHARITY, | not because the consumer does not | have a strong tenderc 1 have expended much time, thought ana energy in trying to establish community life upon small hotdings.

Ove of these said to me within the past year that the man who in Celifornia | attempted to make a living.on twenty acres | usually brought up in the county poorhouse. | The signmiicance of this should not escape | attention. A single egricultural cultivator of | the soil, with the aia of his family, cannot | take carc of twenty acres of land in fruits and | garden stufis. He cannot take proper care of | | ten acres. Now if it be true that the entire | | employment of a man and family on land he | cwns is a failure, if land must be aggregated into large hoidings and operated by a landlord who cmploys the labor of men, end if by this aggregation of land and labor alone profit | ensues in the cultivation of Califorria lands, then of necessity the State will remain about as it is for the next half-century. My observation of the experiments that have been made convinces me that whatever failure has attended the cultivation of small holdings referable entirely to the jact that the pro- ducer is not paid enough for his products, but é!a_\'cnouzh. | and this latter statement finds daily ample verification. The establishment of a free market, there- fore, in San Francisco, while a small begin- ning, is the introduction of a force which will in the direction of segregating the ownership of the soil. This in_turn will have a tendency to bring to us a sustaining and prosperous population.

SHOULD HAVE BEEN GUARDED. The Owners of a Building Censured for Having an Elevator Unprotected. A verdict censuring the Market-street Railway Company was returned by the Coroner’s jury yesterday at the inquest held by Coroner Hawkins to investigate the circumstances of Mrs. Annie McAl- lister’s death. Mrs. McAllister lived at 2004 Taylor street. On the 7th inst. she died from in- juries recerved on the 3d inst. in an acci- | dent at Jackson and Mason streets. She was knocked down by a Powell-street cable- car, and besides suffering internally one of her limbs was fractured and she was | very badly bruised. The evidence of the witnesses was all against thestreet railway company, though the gripman and car conductor were prac- | tically exonerated from blame. It was | shown that the bell of the car had been | sounded, but the trouble was that the grip- man, owing to the curve there—the car was going toward North Beach—did not see the lafiy in time to stop the car. In the opinion of the jury the company had not taken proper precautions at this | particular curve for the prevention of | accidents. ‘When Mrs. McAllister was first seen she was hardly two feet from the car and was walking across the tracks. Mrs. Franks of 1134 Francisco street was an eye-wit- ness. She said tbat Mrs. McAllister was | crossing Jacison street and was in the middle of the track when the car rounded | the curve at its usual high rate of speed | :{\]nd struck the deceased, knocking her | own. 1t was one of the side steps of the | car which caught her, and the injured limb was drawn under it and crushed. Witness was sitting on the outside of the car at the time. John Jenkins, the gripman, said he had been agripman on the Powell-street system vator shaft at 49 First street on the 4th ?x,]';t.n TIronsides died on the 6th. 150 '‘Raymond Duncan of the publishing company where Iromsides got his pro- grammes, and which is “lucnted on the fourth floor of the building, testified as follows: A A v n that building for four or five m{)!’x‘z‘l::. bgve)?e:‘. 1 went in ihere first 1 went to O'Farrell & Co., the agents, to have something done with that elevator. I have been to them I don't know how many times, but nothing Das ever been done. I wanted them to have a cage put on the elevator. 1had heard of acci. dents there before. : It seems that besides there being no cage on the elevator, the only guard on each floor consists of a single bar, which may be up or left down, according to the carefulness or otherwise of partics using it, and that a boy was employed to run t! elevator until 6 ». M., but no one after tha: hour. In the evenings it has been thecus- tom for anybody to use the elevator at leasure. pYmm Ironsides stepped off the floor and fexF down the shaft about an hour aiter the elevator boy had quit for the day, and while he was lying at the bottom of the shaft the elevator went up and came down on him once or twice. The jury’s verdict was: - t his death was purely accidental, bu iroTth‘h; msrfinnny we é’c nsure the owners for not having the elevator from which he met his death properly protected. Damage suits may arise out of the Mc. Allister and Ironsides cases. In the case of Matihies Lindberg, who cut his throat on the 5th inst., at 409 Drumm street, the verdict was suicide. The old veteran, Pedro Cota, a music teacher, was found to have been accident- ally asphyxiated at 907 Filbert street, on the 5th inst. ‘The jury was unable to say whether the fate of the unknown man found drowned at Baker’s Beach on the 5th inst. was a “suicide, accident or homicide.” TAX PAYMENTS. Result of Collector Block’s Work on the First Installment. Tax Collector Block fizured up his total collections on the first installment for the current year yesterday. He found that the total amount taken in by his office amounted to $4,238,519 93, which with the $400,000 collected by the Assessor, makes a total of $4,638,519 93. As the total assess- ment of the City amounts to $7.200,000, 214 per cent on $320,000,000, there is still $2,561,480 07 to be -collected on the second installment. As the penalty on delinquent real estate has been reduced from 50 to 10 per cent, it | is expected that the delinquent list will be larger than usual this year. ———— A Liquor Thief Arrested. or seven years, and that this was his first | accident. When he first saw the lady the | car was close up to her. He said he was | sounding the bells, as is the custom when | going around the curve, and that shouted and put on the brake: the car as quickiy as possible. G. Hillman corroborated bis testimony. | ‘An expressman, W. E. Davis, also saw the accident. His statement was that the lady was walking across the track and tlmt‘}he car was running at a high rate of | speed. r‘me the evidence of all the other wit- nesses, it appeared that no one had been stationed by the company at the curve to | keep people out of the way and thus avoid | casualties. Attorney J. E. Richards was present in the interest of the deceased. | The verdict of the jury was: | That the deceased, Mrs. Annie McAllister, came to her death by being struck by a cable car at the ccrner of iason and Jackson streets; And we further find that the street railway company is to be blamed for not taking proper | precautions at this particular curve. Another verdict of censure was returned, but in this particular case the parties blamed were the owners of the Donahue estate building at Mission and First streets. It was the result of the inquest held on William Tully, alias King, was arrested yes- terday for burglary, for breaking into & whole- sale house and stealing a barrel of whisky.

Almost every leading male member of the Rothschild family is the possesser of a fine collection of works of art picked up with more or lessdiscrimination and taste; but the collection of Adolphe de Roths- child differs in one respect from the col- lections of other members of his family. 1t 1s a notorious fact, which most of them very candidly confess, that the Rothschilds only collect articles of real value in them- selves—that is articles which could very easily be turned back into cash at a moment’s notice. Now with Baron Adolphe this is not the case, for while he, of course, possesses un immense quantity of works of art of grect value, and which could easily be converted into cash, he also has collected a lot of things which it would indeed be difficult for him to con- vert into current coin. Baron Adolphe is one of those expensive and extravagant people known as faddists; and he is almost the only one of the Rothschild famiiy who has allowed himself to be affected by this Sterling Ironsides, the young racing-pro- gramme seller who was iufured in the malady. hand.
