The steam schooer Caspar had fo run on a mudbank last Thursday nignt in | order to escape a collision. The scow schooner Eina was making her way up the creek and the steamer was almost in collision before the wind-jsrnmer was | seen. It was then a question of running | on the mudbank or running down the | schooner. The captain of the Caspar chose the mudbank, and iz was late yes- | terday afternoon before he got the vessel | off again and was able to make San Fran- i cisco. P. G.

Expert Wi'liams Repores the Fuods in the | Treasury. By Strict Ezonomy th: Difficulty May | B: Tided Ov.r Until the N w { Fisca! Year. The Finance Committee of the Board of | Supervisors has taken hold of the threat- | ened deficit in the municipal funds with a | will, and the indications are that the | situation will turn out to be far less dan- | gerous than has been stated. | The committee has had Cyril Williams, ts expert, working on the Auditor’s booss | for severa! days past, and held a meeting | yesterday to hear the results of his labors. Auditor Broderick was present, and | when snxious inquiries were made by | merchants in attendance as to the chances | of their getting their money he remarked | | that it seemed strange that they were | alarmed, when they always seemed anx- | ious to furnish supplies. | “The trouble liesin the fact,” he said, ‘‘that some officials cannot be indaced to keep within their appropriations.” It wasintimated that if the salary de- | mands for the last fiscal year were held over until the new appropriation is made the difficalty might be tided over. The | | Auditor was ssked if he would stand in | | on such & proposition. | | “Iam not going to say what I will do,” | be replied, “butIam quite likely to pay the salaries when they are due.” | Clerk Russell said that it was unfortu- | nate tnat the City’s credit should be | | thurown into disrepute every year. He | | thougit that more taxes could be col- | lected, and thatas the June salaries were | | not due until July they should not be paid until then. Expert Williams’ report was then read, showing that the probable shortage will be $100,000, ‘Tue aeficit 1n the various subdivisions of | the general fund sggregate $87.650, but | the estimated surplus in certain fands | was $49,400, making the deficiency, by | reason of overdrafts, $38,250; but to this | must be added $30.000, deficiency in the | collection of fees, and $32,000, deficiency in tax collections, that would be applied to the general fund, making s total def- ciency of $100,000. T e report aiso showed that there were deficiencies in the general fund over which the board has no control. The | meeting | them until | free to all.

Tonielli in explaining | the project said: ! “The Pa | c Coast is the most fayorable | spot in America for the establishment of | a great zoological garden. It wiil not be | necessary to keep the animals in small | cages, bat they may be surrounded by the environments of their nawural homesso far as is compatible with safety.

In time, also, a gallery might be estabiishea where ariists can exhibit their pictures of ani- | mals and place them on sale. “Itis believea that most of the work | can ve donein a year. By the way, we intend to establish an aquarium also.”” Professor Tonieil: is a celebrated African explorer, and Las been on this coast now for two yearsand a half, in order to beneft his wite’s health. He is a graduate of | Oxford. Health Dera-tment expected to have a | surpius of $2000. 1 Moreover, the fund for the payment of police s had a s of $5000 which, it was estimated, wouid cover the | increase in salaries ailowed by the last| gisiature, but as payment bad been @ joned and the matter had gone to Supreme Cours the credit was likely to re main on hand at the end of the fiscal year. In reference to the shortage in fees Wil- liams said the new fee bill had reduced | the receipts of the Sheriff’s and Recorder’s offices one-haif. It had been estimated | at the beginning of the fiscal year that the | fees wonld amount to $210 000, but the ex- pert estimated tba' they would mot| amount to more than $185.000. The Police | Court fines had also failen off. Last vear the revenue from this source was $31.542. | Upto May 1 of this year only $18,035 05 bad been recsived. In conciusion Williams stated thatfrom | tae deniciency of $100,000 in the general fund may be deducted the amount that | may be transferred from the police relief pension fund, in which there is a credit of nearly $20.000. Mayor Phelan, who was present, and the members of the commitiee at once saw tuat it would take earnest and well- directed work to stave cff a serious fina cial situation, and it was decided to call a this morning at 10:30 at the | rooms of the board to talk the matter | over and find some way cut of the| tangl | “‘That’s the only way to doit,” sald the | Auditor, “‘cut down expenses and let out | all men who are not actnally and actively | at work and needed. I have dispensed with two men, and will have to work my | | force overtime ‘0 keep up with the de mands of my office, and I think ail should | do the same. | 1 might suggest that if those most in-| terested wonld induce the banks to take | up the salary warranis and nor prezent | the beginning of the next | fiscal year it would remove the pressare.” ‘After the meeting the Supervisors con- | sulted among themselves and decided to | cat expenses in all directions. | The contract for grading Alamo square may be postponed until the next fiscal | year, making a saving of $10,000, and with other savings reduce the deficit from | $30,000 to $50,000. { The Auditor intimated that if the board | and heads of cepartments would show 2 genuine disposition to reirench he would do all in his power to see that the City’s credit was placed on & bet'er basis.
