CORPORATIONS ARE CITED T0 C SHOW CAlsE Must Explain Small Tax Payments. i WELLS-FARGO HOTLY GRILLED e SUPERVISORS SIT AS A BOARD OF EQUALIZATION. o g Protests Against Erroneous Assess- ments Coming In in Bunches, but in Most Cases Assess- or’s Figures Stand. — The banks and quasi-public corpora- tions are to be hard put to it to explain Just why they should not shoulder their Just share of the taxes that are this year to be paid into this city and county. It is the opinion of Assessor Dodge that he has about everything assessed that can be touched under the law or which has not been converted into drafts and de- posited temporarily with foreign corre- spondents of local banking institutions, but the Supervisors havé an idea that they may find a way to go him one bet- ter, and to this end they yesterday adopted a resolution citing about every private, and money broker of importance in this city to appear before them while sitting as a Board of Equalization and show cause why their assessments shall not £0 up. “Tackle it if you want to,” said Asses- sor Dodge to them yesterday. “I have spent the better part of a month in go- ing over their books, and in some cases I have got them assessed as close as they can Be. considering, of ‘course, legal exempe | tions and their abllity to evade taxation on certain classes of collateral. Its the }J)_rh'i!e banking firms we are afraid of. he man around the corner who may be using $3,000,000 or $4,000,000 in his busi- ness but who renders a statement to me of only $100,000, the law does not give me the right to inspect his books and I can do nothing with him.” The board agreed with Assessor Dodge that he probably had every- thing charged against the corpora- tions that he could find, but at the same time thought it would be as well to have them all up and question them as to their franchises. Consequent- ly Mr. Aigeltinger offered a resolution | calling upon them to apgear on the morn- B ing of the 1l4th_ and ow cause. Onl; Lackmann and Heyer voted against lt.y Assessor Dodge made one exception in his list of untouchable banks. t was that philanthropic institution owned and g}geraled by Wells, Fargo & Co. The ells-Fargo people, although maintain- ing their headquarters in San Francisco, are incorporated under the laws of Colo- rado. They have branches in New York Utah and Portland. They have a su g!us of $6,712,000 on a capital of $500,000, ut that vast amount is farmed out among their branches and cannot be taxed in this State, notwithstanding that the company’s chief place of business is here, for the reason that under the law such funds can only be taxed in the home of the corporation—the place under the laws of which it is incorporated. “We}ls—Farfi:’s president only laughed at us,” said Mr. Dodge, “and he told me that he could come in here next year and not pay a cent in taxes unless he wanted to, and -I guess he is pretty near right. They simply unload their taxable holdings amorig their branches and w cannot touch them. AIll that we can a sess them on here is real estate to the tune of $2,172,947 and cash, which they have notified us amounts to $496,609."” The Assessor said that there was just one way of getugF at the company and that was by raising the assessment on their banking franchise, which he has already assessed at $10,000, and this prop- osition the board will consider. In considering protests against this year’s assessments the board is for the most part backing up Mr. Dodge's fig- ures, although few reductions have yet been' requested. Nearly_all of vesterday was given up to considering reductions ra_nglng from $50 to half as many thou- sand. Two representatives of the Callagham Estate Company came in to order a re- duction in a valuable triangular piece of property at West Mission and Potter It was assessed last year at $125,000; this year Mr. Dodge voluntarily reduced it to $115,000. The estate wanted it cut down to $97,000 and bandied not many words in making its wants known. Investigations developed that there was every probability that the city owned the property and that the holders were little more than squatters. The assessment was promptly raised to last year's figures and the Callaghams retired disgruntled. Property owners, or %lauulble rep- resentatives, came to the front to swear glibly that their holdings- were not worth half the assessment, but when asked as to their -insurance it developed that in most cases they car- ried policies for amounts far in excess of the assessment. As insurance com- panfes take risks only on about 60 per cent of the actual valuation of the prop- erty, there was nothing left for the board to_do but deny,the petitions. The Columbia Savings and Loan So- clety sent in a represéntative who was loaded up with unkind things to be shot at the Assessor. Dodge assessed the so- clety’s franchise at $2500, and the soci- ety’s representative said that when he asked the Assessor upon what he had based his calculation that official was unable to tell him and referred him to | | “his_expert.” “If he based it upon the number of our depositors,” said he, “‘then the assessment of the Hioernia Bank should be raised a hundred or so times what it is to be in proportion.” The so- clety’s kick was well delivered, notwith- standing_rather a severe struggle with modern English on the part of the ora- tor, but it had no effect upon the board and the assessment remained at the origl- nal: $2500. The board will continue its considera- ;ion of property at 10 o’clock this morn- ng. LOTS OF FUN AT THE CAKEWALK CARNIVAL THREE HUNDRED COUPLES TO COMPETE FOR THE PRIZES. Champions From All Parts of the Country to Exhibit Their Pro- ficiency to San Fran- ciscans. Manager Buckley declares emphatically that the great international cake-walk carnival that is to be Hheld in the Mechanics’ Pavilion for one week com mencing Saturday night will be the great est show of the kind ever seen in San Francisco, and it begins to look as though he knew what he was talking about. Two hundred and seventy-eight couple: have already been entered in the varifous prize contests, and the number anx- jous to exhibit their talents in the numer- ous exhibition walks to be put on for the entertainment of the spectators is sur- prising. Prominent among the stars who will appear are F. W. Tillman, the cham- ion cake-walker of Oregon; Chan Kim oon, the original Chan Toy of “The First Born”; A. F. Williams and “Lady,” the champion_cake-walkers of San Fran- cico; Master Frankie Butner, the 3-year- old wonder of Oakland; Gladys Monfagne and Blanche Treleuse, the midget artists of this city, and little Harry Mangels, the juvenile c! unglon, also of this city. Every day there will be from twelve to forty couples competing in the champion- ships, and every evening the show will begin with the grand pageant of the entry of the ldn'i and 3ueen of the carnival with beautifully decorated floats repr: senting the “Birth of the Cake,” 9 E:l{e Up to Date” and “The International e. Another feature of the carnival will be the exhibitions of the Delsartean walk and beauty posings by twenty couples under the direction of Mrs. L. Honn. The famous Steam man, the marvel of the nineteenth century, will also be among the attractions. | ECLIE T ACT WITH The HEALTH BOARD Harbor Commission= ers Have No Power. el CONEMAUGH SAILS FOR MANILA g QUARANTINED PASSENGERS OF NIPPON MARU LANDED. ey i FElaborate Preparations on the Front for the Reception of Oregon Troops — First Water- melons of Season. iy i, The Harbor Commissioners yesterday decided to take no action on the request of the local Board of Health for their co-operation in refusing to allow vessels to dock unless they had a clean bill of health. Two weeks ago a communication was received relating to the subject, which was referred to Attorney Budd for his advice as to the powers of the Com- missioners in the matter, and he recom- mended that the communication be filed. He argued that the Harbor Board could not act except in a specific case where there was no doubt of the presence of ‘infectious diseases on the vessels and that the Federal, State and municipal health authorities were competent to deal with the contingency. Commissioner Kilburn presented the names of two men for appointment as collectors and Commissioners Herold and Harney voted favorably. Eugene Sulli- van, former Assemblyman of the Forty- fifth District, succeeds G. A. Murphy, and M. H. Barry, former Assemblyman of the Forty-fourth, ‘took J. M. Nash's place. The terms of the displaced officers have both expired. The transport Conemaugh left yester- day afternoon for Manila with 276 horses for the Fourth Cavalry. Lieutenant Wi- nans and a squad of thirty-five men are in charge of the animals. The latter are ranged along the sides of the vessel in small stalls and will be given a chance to stretch themselves at Honolulu. The fifty-four liberated passengers of the Nippan Maru came over from quaran- tine yestérday morning on the steamer Caroline. Captain W. G. Leale landed the happy band at Jackson-street wharf, where three cheers were given for Dr. Kinyoun, Federal Quarantine Officer. The Governor Perkins met them off Lombard- street wharf and local Quarantine Officer Cohn stamped their health certificates. The transport City of Para will leave to-morrow with the headquarters band, four companies of the Twenty-fourth In- fantry and two troops of the Fourth Cavairy. The Tartar leaves on the 22d with 1100 men of the Nineteenth Infantry. The Tacoma will take on 200 horses in about three days. The bark Santiago, the first of the over- due sugar packets, arrived yesterday morning, thirty days from Hilo, with four passengers. She went to Long wharf, Oakland, to discharge her cargo. Angus’ Beaton, a re-enlisted soldier walting for assignment, was brought to the Harbor Hospital yesterday to be treated for an ugly wound on the right side of the head. Beaton, who was per- fectly sober, claims that he was struck on the head with a revolver by Officer Davis, a new member of the police force, who was not in _uniform, and without any provocation. He says he was walking along near the Hotel Nymphia with a friend, another soldier, whom Davis kicked and followed it up by striking Beaton.” The latter was charged with disturbing the peace. Dr. Rice dressed his_wound. Four minor cases were treated at the Harbor Hospital. E. Moore, a teamster, sustained a compound fracture of the hand_ while loading a boiler on Mission and East streets. A. Haven had a piece of steel extracted from his right index finger and Joseph H. Muller had his left index fingér ground off by an emery wheel at the Daw Steam Pump Works. Edward Lynch was arrested by Officers Dalton and Crosby on suspicion of hav- ing Lroken Robert Hamilton's leg on Fisherman’s wharf last Sunday in an al- tercation. Lynch was charged with may- hem, but says he knows nothing of the assault and was not there when it oc- curred. The first watermelons of the season ar- rived yesterday from Fresno, and Com- mission_Merchant McDonough was_en- riched $12.50 thereby. His partner, Run- yan, bet that none would arrive before July 13, and he lost by two days. In addition to the tug Governor Irwin, which will take Adjutant General Sea- mans-and his staff out to the incoming transports Ohio and Newport when they arrive, the tug Sea Queen has been gen- erously donated by Captain W. J. Gray to convey the Native Sons’ committee, Colonel W. P. Sullivan, who will repre- sent the Mayor, and the members of the press. The band provided by the M: T will also accompany the party, which will leave from Mission-street wharf. Due no- tice will be F(ven through the telephone and by the blowing of whistles and sirens as soon as the vessels are sighted, and there will be time enough given to reach the wharf. An eight-inch whistle was placed on the Yolo Mills by Adolph Hinz Jr., who had the tip of his finger cut off at the Harbor Hospital as a result of his enthusiasm. The whistle will blow at the appointed time and be heard clear to Alameda. The elaborate preparations made for the reception of the Oregon troops is entirely due to the Fress committee, who worked unremittingly for it. The members are James Tyler, A. A. Lotto, Chief Wharf- ingér Percy Henderson and Assistant George H. S. Dryden. —_— CRUEL TO HIS CHILDREN. Otto Gross, a Tailor, Accused of Mis- treatment—Eureka Society to Investigate. Otto Gross, a tailor, with place of busi- ness at 1217 Polk street, will be prosecuted by the Eureka Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children if he does not con- tribute to the care of his children by his divorced wife. The latter brought Marie, aged six, and Carl, aged eight, to the rooms of the society yesterday and showed Secretary Wadham their meager appearance and wretched clothing. She undressed both children to show the terri- ble condition of their bodies, due to the il care given them by their father, with whom they have been living for the past year. The mother stated she had been divorced from Gross for over a vear and although she was awarded the custody of The ohiidren and $2 a month alimony, sho allowed Gross to have them, he promising to feed, clothe and educate them prop- erly. That he did not carry out his part of the contract was apparent in the condition of the little ones. The little girl is suffering from blood poisoning brought on by being vaccinated, the dirt being allowed to lodge in the little one’s arm. Their mother claims that Gross used to lock them up in the back of his store and go downtown. During his absence the children would lie in bed and rob their hearts out for a pro- ector. The mother learned of their plight and, although sheé is poor, has taken them in hand and will do her utmost to bring them back to health. Secretary Wadham states he will visit the cruel parent to- day and if he refuses to contribute to the Sapport of the children he will swear to 3 warrant and take him into custody. —_— e ‘Woman Drunk in Court.
