Wakefield Baker, president of the Pa- cific Coast Jobbers' and Manufacturers' Association, yesterday came home from an extended tour through the East. He put In a good part of his time abroad in working for the good of the assoclation and the cause that the association repre- sents. He found the people of the At- lantic coast fully aware of the situation and of the common interest that exists between the Pacific and the Atlantic coasts in the matter of graded rates. “I visited many cities in the East and talked with a great number of merchants and manufacturers who do business on the Pacific Coast,” sald Mr. Baker, “and without an exception I found those on the Atlantic coast with whom I talked in entire accord with and fully under- standing our position. They frequently asked what they could do to help us in the fight that we are making against the plans of the Middle West jobbers. I think that the moral influence will be felt in behalf of our contention, and they will do all that they can.

Sunset Limited, the Espee's splendid winter season train between this city and New Orleans, will make its initial trip on Friday, December 15, notwithstanding rumors to the contrary.

The rates which will operate until the end of the| fiscal year, before which time the incom- ing Board of Supervisors will make a new contract, are as follows: Pen cents per night for each gas lamp, 42 cents per night for each arc lamp, $135 per thousand feet for gas supplied to public bulldings and 15 per cent off the 10 and 15 cents per 1000 watt hour rate charged for electric lighting in public buildings. The veto of Mayor Phelan on the pay- ment of architects’ fees amounting to | $4750 to Martens & Coffey and Mooser & Son for the new hospital plans was sus- tained. Supervisors Algeltinger, Aurldgu‘ | Collins, Holland and Kalben voted agains the veto and Supervisors _Byington, Deasy, Heyer, Lackmann and Perrault in favor.” Supervisors Heyer and Black, who were summoned away on official business during the voting, desired later their votes recorded against the veto, but this does not affect the result. The order prohibiting the e¢ngaging in offensive trades was indefinitely post- poned, as also was the order prohibiting the dumping of dirt and garbage from the wharves on the water front and providing for the cremation of all refuse. The .order providing for the electrical wiring of all_buildings under the provi- slons of the National Electric Code was passed to print. A resolution was offered by Supervisor | Phelps, chairman of the Water Commit- tee, directing the Spring Valley Company and all companies supplying water for public use to furnish to the board a detalled report showing the name and residence of each water rate payer and the amount pald for water by each during the year. Also showing the rev- enue of the corporation or person from all sources, and an itemized statement of ex- penditures for supplying water during the year and the amount of money actually expended annually since commencing business in the purchase, construction and maintenance of the property and the gross cash receipts annually.
