The Philippine | archipelago was the key to the Orlent, said he, and when it had become a naval | station, surrounded by all the protedtion | that a maritime fleet would need, it would become a factor in our commercial coa- ditions in the Orient. Hanna then said it was the purpose of the bill under the postal system to establish a line on the Atlantic coast of South America. | How England Gained Her Supremacy | England had gained her supremacy in ! the markets of the world by pursuing the | policy of establishing direct communica- tion, ‘“‘Personal contact,” he said, “is what | brings results and England, Germany and France are now energetically at work o put in the connecting link between the | Pacific and the Orient.” | He spoke of the benefit that the passage of the bill would bring as a result of in- creased trade with South American coun- tries, saying that trade now went by way of Liverpool and Hamburg in foreign | ships and thence was transhipped to | South American By carrying | ships. In closing Hanna again adverted to the | question of the cost of labor, maintain- ing that wages in this country averaged 50 per cent higher than in European coun- tries. The cost of ships built in the United States was from 25 per cent to 30 per cent | higher than those built in Great Britain, | difference in price of labor making the | difference in cost. The difference in the | cost of operating American and foreign | ships was about 27 per cent, the higher | rates being paid jon American vessels. He urged that the pending measure be enacted into law as the one way to dem- | onstrate to the satisfaction of all.that it would be beneficent in its operations. Barly in the session Frye, in charge of pending shipping bill, obfained an agree- ment that the Senate should vote on the measure and all pending amendments at 3 p. m. Monday, March 17, the time being entifely satisfactory to those opposed to the bill.

TEAGHES MAYOR'S ORMER PUPILS Callinan’s Income Is Sub- ject to Inquiry by + the Court. “My husband earns $40 a week as leader of the orchestra at the Columbia Theater and is also in receipt of a large income | from the former pupils of Mayor Schmitz. When Schmitz was elected Mayor my husband took his place as leader of the crchestra and also took charge of the mu- sical education of the young people whose ! musical talents Mr. Schmitz was develop- ing. ’]ghat was what Gertrude E. Callinan said yesterday in Judge Hebbard's court when questioned concerning her husband's income. She is suing Callinan for divorc and the matter of the monthly income of her husband was brought up by her at- torneys by a motion for alimony. Judge Hebbard thereupon issued an order di- recting Callinan to pay his wife $40 per month, pendente lite, and $190 counsel fees. Were Married Secretly.

Judge Hunt yesterday sustained the de- murrer interposed by City Attorney Lane to the petition for a writ of mandate filed by Edward L. O'Connor to compel the Auditor to audit his demand for $100 for extra services as a copyist, in the Re- corder’s office. . O'Connor was an extra copyist and claimed that he was entitled to compensation for his services out of the unapportioned fee fund. Judge Hunt, in deciding the case, said: When the official budget for the year was adopted the sum of $23.600 was allowed out of the seneral fund for the payment of copyists in_the Recorder’s office. The one-twelfth act provides that It shall not be lawful for any officer having power to incur liabilities against the treasury to imcur or present in any one month any demand against any appropriation which, taken with the other expenditures or MNabilities incurred up to the time of making such demand, shall exceed one-twelfth part of the amount of the appropriation for the fiseal year. Under this apportionment the Rocorder was entitled to $1911 per month for copyists, There are more than twenty copyists employed by the Recorder. Their demands could not be paid out of the general fund without violating the one-twelfth act. It is claimed that, owing to the Increase of work in the Recorder's office, he was, under section 12, authorized to employ extra persons, whose demands should be paid out of the unap- portioned fee fund. It is evident, however, that if the claim of the petitioner ' be Judicially sanctioned, any copyist employed in the Recorder’s office may present a similar demand. thus exhausting the one-twelfth apportionment of the general fund, but also drawing upon and possibly exhaust- ing the unapportioned fee fund. It is claimed that the petitioner is an em= ploye “whose compensation has not- been fixed by law.” and hence he is entitled to payment out of the last named fund, irrespective of the provisions of the one-twelfth act. There are, however, a large number of ap- pointments legally made by officials under the provisions of the charter, where the compen- sation fs not fixed by law. This is particularly true of the appointees of the Auditor and of Board of Health. Ir, therefore, tion of the petitioner were sustained, evers ploye of the municipality whose compensat: has not been established by law, but has been determined by the appointing power, ean col- lect such compensation out of the “‘unappor- tioned fee fund.” independent of the provisions of the one-tweifth act. This, in my o k cannot be done. The only inciavenfence whi can It from the present situation Is that the party recording an instrument thay have to wait a little longer for its return. = Reliof can be furnished in several ways. The Recorder may, upon application to the Board of Supervisors, obtain an allowance from the urgent necessity fund, or he may se- cure relief under section 35, article 16, of the charter. which provides that when any official shall require additional clerks or employes, application shall be made to the Mayor there- for, and if he finds the same necessary, them he ‘may recommend the Supervisors to author- ize such appointment WILL PROBE RUMOR OF POLICE CORRUFTION FUND Giand Jury Meets To-Day to Investi- gate Charge of Proposed Pur- chase of Promotion. The Grand Jury will meet this afternoon to begin an investigation into the printed rumor that a corruption fund of 36000 was to have been raised by policemen in order to purchase the questions for the civil service examinations for promotions in the department. Mayor Schmitz has premised to lend his aid to sift the mat- ter to the hottom, but his Honor is not sanguine that any result will come of the investigation. The Mayor said . dary that the charge is based on the vaguest kind of a rumor and that a preliminary investigation by Civil Service Commis- siorer Ohnimus and himself resulted in nothing. However, many patrolmen.have been summoned to appear before the Grand Jury and tell what they know of the charge that they desired to buy. pro- motions. R e — Seigel Will Is Sustained.
