The recent formation of the Federation of Mission Improvement Clubs which em- braces that portion ol the Mission south- west of Thirtieth street, and extending {'to the county line, tends to the advance- ment of the entirc section. One of the first and most important undertakings in connection with the objects of the Fed- erated Clubs is to have a system of se erage laid 1 which the whole territo may be drained. -The plan proposed the club is that a sewer be started at Cor- bett road and follow the line of the bed of Excelst the Five sion-road district. atter to be presented to the Supervisors and School Directors will be applications for ‘appropriations to erect schoolhouses suited to the necessities of the children of that district who are now deprived of nroper accommodations. The club will ask for the erection of three twelve-class buildings out of the next-.an- nual appropriation. A demand for better more light, more water mains, positively much better . protectic against fire, will be among the demands of ‘this new spirit of Southwest Mission progress and Improvement. ——— MISSING FROM CHICO.

DEPLETED FUNDS ARE FILLED STRUGGLE OVER APPOINTMENT OF AN EXPERT. Members of the Board Differ as to the | Necessity, at This Time, of an Expert on As- sessments. The -plan of the. Finance Committee, [ Board of Supervisors, to replenish a num- ber of special funds depleted by their | predecessors was adopted at a meeting of the board yesterday. Chalrman Perrault of ‘the committee -was.the most active champion of the measure. The only de- termined opposition came from Supervis- or ‘Holland, who. as chairman of 'the Building Committee, is charged with the turnishing of the Hall of Justice. The appropriation of $85,000 for this pur- pose was reduced by 20,000, and he claimed this would not. only prevent the proper furnishing of the building, but would also cause a delay.in its completion ready for | occupancy. When the rgsolution was read | 'he objected to its passage. In support of his stand in the matter he rfad a com- munifcation from Shea & Shea, the archi- tects of the building. This -told of the proper furnishing and equipment. neces sary for the building and dsked that the present amount. stand.. Mr. Holland also spoke in behalf of the building, sayving he hoped the hoard would not interfere with the progress being made on building, but-let it continue and have it ready for occupancy on July 1 He held that alterations of the rooms to be accupled by the Superior Judges: and other things would consume -the entire appropriation. Dr. Perrault in reply sald $45,000 instead of $65,000 should be sufficient to furnish the bullding. He told of the city being indebted to merchants, -street contractors, clerks, laborers and others, and that | economy was necessary. -He thought the | furniture. now used by the Judges could be brightened with polish and- installed in their new. quarters. The doctor- said the people have become disgusted with the: Hall of Justice and its contractors | during thie past two_years. He wanted to maintain the credit of the. city and build up its depleted funds. The resolution cutting down 4 riations was carrfed by a vote of 8 to Supervisor Holland volunteered the state- ment that if the Finance Committee had consulted the Building = Committee, the specifications for - the furnishing could have been changed before. Alfred C. Platt.-was appointed expert to the Committeé on ‘‘Personal Property As- sessments’ of the board. He will afd the committee n-its examination -of the as- sessments on the assessment book. His remuneration was fixed at $150 per month., This appointment was considered untime- the appro- ly by Supervisors Byington and Deasy, as they said the work’ would not commence until July. To this Dr. Perrault replied that the man would be engaged in “‘detec- tive duties” from this time-forth. He sdid there was 76.000,000 flumlng taxes, and. the duty of this’expert would be to see that they were paid. J..W..McDonald ‘tendered his resigna- | tion as ‘a member of the Board of. Fire Commissioners, to take effect at once. R. H. Jones, a custom-house broker, was ap- pointed to fill. the vacancy. No salary is attached to the office. 5 Representatives of the Surinyside dis- trict appeared before the board asking that the streets be graded and a sewer constructed. Previous action was rescind- ed and the protest of other people was de- nied.. The action of the board was. ap- plauded, and the “‘petition on legss’: as the Mayor: termeéd the -Sunnysiders, tiled out. % SR At the instance of ‘€hairman Helland ‘of the Building. Committee, it was decided to ask the éudges of the criminal depart- ments of the Superior Court to file with the board within one week a communica- tion stating the aecommodations’ and’ fit- tings they require in their courtrooms and chambers.

Tax. Collector Edward I. Sheehan re- | quested authorization to empioy twenty- five extra clerks in his office during the month of March. He gave it as his opinion that that number would be required in the office in order. to handle the volume of business that will come to it in the colle tion of the second installment of taxes. The City and County Attorney was em- [ powered and directed to dismiss the ap- | peals taken in two suits for the collection | of street assessments against the estate | of Alex G.

PIGGOTT AND HIS “PULL.” | The Police Claim They Have a Sure Case Against Him This Time. John Piggott and Cal Childs, notorious pickpockets, were arraigned before Jus- | tice of the Peace Kerrigan yesterday on the charge of. grand larceny. They are accused of stealing $130 from G. Hen- rioulle, 129 Seventh: street, on ‘a Mission- street car Saturday night. : At their re- quest the case was continued until Friday. A charge of vagrancy has been pending in Judge Graham's court against Childs and Piggott for the past four. menths The case was heard by a jury, and the ury disagreed. Since then nq effort has een made to again try them.' There is.also a charge of vagrancy in the same court against.Piggott, who was arrested by Policeman Barney Harter about ten days ‘ago, but it is also undisposed of Piggott, like his sister Annie, one. of the cleverest pickpockets that ever operated ¢, has a strong “pull,” and he escaped punishment. The police’ claim that they have a sure case against him on a grand larceny charge. and vestérday morning Judge Conla who is sick, telephoned to Justice of the ) 4. | Peace Kerrigan to make his and Childs’ bonds $5000 each. ———— Trains to Arrive on Time.

A FORENOON OF - ANXIETY SOME OF THE MERCHANT-CRED- ITORS’ CLAIMS. Typewriters for All Posterity. Desks and Chairs That Were Stored Away for An- other Day. Every public school teacher in the city was: represented in Treasurer Truman's office yesterday, between 9 a. m. and 4 p. m., and during this interval of seven hours a golden stream of $78202 15 flowed out through the cashier's little wcket at the rate of about $186 20 per minute. 8o the tide ran away toward every point of the compass and there was joy in twelve hun- dred homes last night. The safary dead- lock was broken and a part of the city’s shame was sponged from the record. By the unwritten law the salary of a teacher engaged In educating the young Is as stat- utory as the hills, and this is why public sentiment called loudly for its immediate payment. Many of the hundreds of teachers stand- ing quietly around the uireasurer’s door early yesterday morning were keyed up to a high nerve tension. There was a sense of impending something in the air. The clocks were moving towards 9, and at 10 the courts would be open for business. Would the dreadeu injunction then swoop down on the paymaster and tie up the coin sacks again? Even passers-by were | affected. Officers whose salaries are stat- utory and not at the mercy of the unholy public boards .of San Francisco, where post-election sainthood so cuickly devel- ops into officlal deviltry most rich and | rare, stopped a moment and were caught | in_the spirit of trembling expectancy. A | policeman who was there to defend the | remainder of thi: E year's school funds from any flank attack on the part of Ragan, Weller & Co.. was taken with an attack of nervous prostration, and was only an ornament in that locality during the rest of the forenoon. But the treasury doors opened, the salaries began to come out, the injunction was enjoined, and January's work was paid for. A citizen'in a communication received at this office asks for information regard- ing the goods furnished by the merchant creditors to the city durf‘ng the malad. ministration of the late Board of Educa- tion. In answer, it can be stated that numbering about 200, run to $1 50. One bill of $18,- chairs and other school from C. F.

With this ample supply of machines on hand, San Francisco should turn out A.B. graduates pewritery till the school department catches up with its runaway finances.

By good luck the machines were recovered before Ragan & C . congratulating itsel Payot, Upham & Co.’s claim is for school | supplies amounting to $3293, and the San Francisco Gas and Electric Light Com- any is in the hole for $2110. The Hum- golr]t Lumber Company, at $1051, and the Slade Lumber Company 91, and the lumber firm of J. A. Snook & Co., at-$1’ are the builder merchants whose bills are hung up to frazzie out in the wind. These are the larger bills. The others go down the line, a large number in the lower hun- dreds, and many in the tens, showing that a_ host of small tradesmen were caught dedling with this debt-repudiating municipality. A large sprinkling of claims under $10, Tunnine down to $3, are on the list. -All of the city newspapers are rep- resented by advertising bills of from $15 to $25. Ex-Auditor Broderick is not alarmed by the_reported intention of the merchant creditors to question the propriety of his action in signing illegal claims. He 'is willing to stand by his.official record, no matter what rascality the Boards of Su- pervisors and Education were guilty of. Said a prominent citizen yesterday: Broderick is to be crucified as the out- come of this shameful affair. let the ‘Solid Nine' of the late. Board of Supervisors be nailed on one side of him, and the ‘Solid Elght’ of the last Board of Education be spiked on the other. side.
