Obsequies Take Place in the Pres- ence of Men and Women of All Walks of Life. ‘With marked impressiveness and amid profound tokens of grief the funeral ser- vices over the body of the late Dr. R. Beverly Cole, Coroner of the city and county of San Francisco, were held yes- terday afternoon at the Masonic Temple. The services were according to the ritual of California Commandery No, 1 of the Knights Templar, of which the deceased was a member. The large lodgeroom of the Masonic Temple was far too small to accommodate those who wished to take part in the funeral rites. Exalted Commander F. Titus of the California Commandery of Knights Tem- plar was one of the mourners, being a lite-long friend of Dr. Cole, and General- issimo Carroll Cook acted as exalted com- mander. Seventy-eight Sir Knights were present in full regalia and occupled seats in the body of the lodgeroom. The black covered and silver decorated casket re- posed on a bier in the center of the cham- ber and was buried beneath floral tributes sent by city officials, medical societies and relatives. The Masonic regalia of the de- ceased was on top of the casket. Beautiful and solemn was the ritual conducted by the Knights Templar. Sir Carroll Cook delivered the opening ad- dress and was followed by Prelate W. E. Church, the knights making the responses. The Masonic quartet then sang the hymn ““With Tearful Eyes I Look Around,” and Commander Carroll Cook then called upon Past Commander General W.H. L. Barnes to deliver the funeral oration. General Barnes never spoke more elo- quently. He dwelt upon the fact that it was in the very chamber all were gath- ered in that he, the speaker, had initlated Dr. Cole as a brother Templar. All doubt which existed in the mind of Dr. Cole as to the immortality of the soul was swept aside when he was initiated, and to his death he remained true to thé obligations of the order. An eloquent tribute was paid by General Barnes to the good quali- ties of the dead man, and his professional distinction was also dwelt upon. Whatever faults the deceased might have had were outweighed by his many virtues. A sweet, loving and charitable heart had endeared him to all, and his memory wil! always be cherished. The voice of the speaker broke as he finished his oration by say- ing: “Dear friend, brave Sir Knight, may God who has loved you take you home to his eternal bosom now and forever more, amen.” The quartet then sang “Sleep, Brother, Sleep,” and the Knights Templar marched from the chamber while the quartet rendered *“Good-night, Good-night, It Is Morning Now."” The procession was then formed to the street. Ahead marched the Templars, pallbearers and city officials; then came the flower-strewn casket, followed by the sorrowing relatives. . ne tront of the Ma- sonic Temple was densely crowded with spectators, who stood silently as the casket was placed in the hearse, a mili- tary band meanwhile playing the hymn “Nearer My God to Thee.” Thousands of citizens witnessed the procession as it marched to the depot at Third and Townsend streets, where spe- cial cars were In waiting to convey the funeral party to Cypress Lawn Cemetery. At the cemetery the ritual of the Knights Templar was observed, and as Musiclan Bennett sounded “taps’ the casket with its wealth of flowers was gently lowered through the floor of the chapel to the cre- matory beneath, where the body of Dr. Cole was incinerated. The pallbearers were: Dr. J. B. Young- er and Adolph Meyer, representing Cali- fornia Commandery: Colonel Murphy and Henry Hthmn of Occidental Lodge; Drs. Kerr, Williamson, McLean, Lewitt, Von Hoffman, Leland and McCone; Major Box- ton, regreseming the Board of Supervis- ors, and Mayor Phelan. The widow of Dr. Cole was unable to be present at the funeral on account of old age and grief. The attaches of the Coroner’s office were represented by Dep- uty Coroner McCormick. They sent a large floral tribute. FAILS IN AN ATTEMPT TO GET LOAD OF SALT James Eweeney_wul Have to Answer Before the Superior Court. James Sweeney, a longshoreman, was held to answer before the Superior Court by Judge Cabaniss yesterday on the charge of grand larceny. His bonds were fixed at $2000. On January 14 he telephoned to the Federal Salt Company that Plum- mer & Co. were to send for a truck load of salt and in a few minutes a truck was driven to the warehouse and Sweeney was with it. After the truck was about half loaded the suspicions of the manager were aroused and he telephoned to Plummer & Co., who said they had not ordered any salt. A policeman was called in and Sweeney was arrested. John Mullen, a lusty beggar, was sent to the County Jail for three months by Judge Cabaniss yesterday on a charge of begging. He accosted Policeman Mitchell, who was in civilian clothes, on Market street Wednesday night and asked for a dime. It was refused, and Mullen used language that was extremely ungentle- manly. Charles W, Smyth, the young attorney who was accused of felony embezzlemient by James Fitzpatrick, 701 Crescent ave- nue, for having, it was alleged, misappro- priated $500 collected by him on B,}’uflg- ment, had the case dismissed by Judge Conlan yesterday, as Fitzpatrick refused to_drosecute. James Leith, who broke into the resi- deénce of A. W. Roberts, 324 Twentieth street, and stole a lot of crockaryware, was held to answer before th3 Superior Court by Judfe Fritz yesterlay on a charge of burglary. Two Chinese keepers of a fantan game were fined $50 each by Judge Fritz yes- terday. s Edward H. Morris, the ex-hackman, ac- cused of the theft of Dr. Mark Newman's fox terrier last Sunday, had the case dis- missed by Judge Conlan yesterday. George Brown was held to answer be- fore the Superior Court by Judge Mogan esterday on a charge of grand larceny or stealing a purse from Mrs. Lizzie Eldridge in the Whale saloon, 5 Third street. BOLD ROOM THIEF CAUGHT BY POLICE Thomas Williams Arrested for Steal- ing From a Number of Lodging Houses. ’ A daring room thief, who gave his name as Thomas Willlams, was captured last ht by Detectives Harper and Arm- g and Police Officer Pat . Sullivan and locked up in the City Prison. During the last week a number of rooms in_various ‘lodging houses have been broken into by Willlams and considerable booty, consistinj Hnnclpa]ly of clothing, {aken.

SURPLUS FUND MAKES TROUBLE Will Cause Serious Compli- cations in the Next Tax Levy. —— That there will be abundant work for the Supervisors’ Committee on Charter | Amendments and the expert to be ap- pointed by the board to outline necessary | amendments to the new organic law of the city was again demonstrated yester- day. Auditor Wells discovered a glaring inconsistency in the charter which will | cause trouble when the Supervisors come to make up the tax budget for the next | fiscal year. As a result.the elusive “sur- | plus” fund, from which it was attempted to make appropriations at least four times, will disappear in thin air. | The Auditor will direct the attention of | the Board of Supervisors to the incon- | sistency in a few days. He will refer them to the section on finance and taxa- tion, which says: “The surplus fund shall be used for the purposes and in the order following: “l. In payment of any final judgment against the city and county. “2. In liquidation and extinguishment under such regulations as the Supervis- ors may adopt of any outstanding funded debt of the city and county. “3. To be carried over and apportioned among the funds and used in the ensu- ing fiscal year as part of the income and revenue thereof.” There is no outstanding funded debt, so according to the terms of the charter the surplus must be carried over and appor- tioned nmon{ the funds used in the next fiscal year after the final judgments have been pald. Here is where the difficulty comes in. Another section provides that the tax levy and budret must be fixed and adopted before the last Monday in June, which falls this vear on June 24. Now_ Auditor Wells declares that it will be absolutely impossible to ascertain the amount oi the surplus fund on June 24, as claims against tne municipality for the fiscal year ending June 30, 191, wiil be pre- sented to him as late as September. Only then will the actual amount of the sur- plus fund, which must be taken Into ac- count in the new budget, be known. Oniy the revenue from other sources, such as license taxes, rents, etc., can be esti- mated. No estimate can be made on the surplus by June 24, as' bills will come in for three months thereafter. Serious complications will undoubtedly result. It may be contended that any claims filed against the surplus fund subsequent to June 24 are illégal, as the charter provides that the surplus shall be apportioned in the next budget. Again the fact that the specific amount of the surplus will not be known on June 24 will result in that fund remaining idle in the city treasury, as it will be impossible to apportion it.
