JHAREHOLDERS GROW ANXIOUS Eastern Parties Who Are Oil-Stock Owners Make Stir. Thousands of Dollars Are Lest in Companies Now Defunct. There is a great stir in the BEast con- cerning stocks in California oil companies Jjudging by the floods of letters of inquiry | that are burdening the mails. Investors | from about every Eastern State are writ- ting both to State Mineralogist Aubury and Secretary C. T. Deane of the Cali- fornia Petroleum Miners' Assoclation, asking about the value of stocks they have been led to purchase. According to the estimate of Secretary Deane there | are 2500 less California oil companies in | existence now than there were two years | ago. A large share of these now defunct companies sold stock in the East and the letters indicate that some of the com- panies placed many thousands of dollars’ worth of their stock. State Mineralogist and Secretary Deane are both compeiled to write in answer to inquiries the companies have ceased to exist and investors have lost all Some companies never own- It has become known that certain parties in this city, operating with Pike & Co. in the East, went into a wholesale business in the underwriting of shares of worthless companies. By reason of their | agency these parties took large blocks of stock for their own share of the deal and these have been sold in the Bast by the | use of full page advertisements and by other devices by which scoundrels man- age to get away the money of the un- wary. Some of the shares in the com- panies that are known here to have been absolutely only paper concerns are still being sold in the Kast. There are many investors who have re- ceived letters from Secretary Deane who have reason to know that they have been swindled. They have no recourse except by criminal prosecutions against the parties who sold them their shares under fraudulent pretenses where the companies have passed out of existence.

JELECT PUBLIC LIBRARY SITE Supervisors' Committee Favors the Lincoln School Lot. Board of - Education Will Report on Locations for Schoolhouses. The Supervisors' Public Utllities Com- mittee recommended yesterday that the Lincoln School lot, consisting of 175 feet frontage on Fifth street with a depth of 275 feet, be transferred from the School Department to the Trustees of the Public Library for the purpose of erecting there- on the main library building, for the con- struction of which Andrew Carnegie has donated the sum of $750,000, The bullding will be known as the “San Francisco Pub- lc Library.” In selecting the site the committee has climinated entirely the frontage on Market street, on which are stores from which the city collects $4000 monthly in rentals. The members of the Board of Educa- tion, who were present when the decision was' taken, agreed to the transfer of the school property with the proviso that the: Board of Superyisors make provision for the purchase of a site for a building to replace the Lincoln School in the vicinity of Seventh and Howard streets. Shouid the site recommended be accepted by the Board of Supervisors, it will obviate the necessity ot -submitting the proposition 1o a vote of the recple, which would havc to be done if a new site were purchased by bond issue, Fifth-Street Site. President Denman of the Board of Edu- cation said that he deemed the Fifth and Market street site as the best location for a library, but not the best for a public schuol. Trustee John H. Wise of the Pub- lic Library said that he favored the Fifth street site since the Mechanics Pavillon offer had been withdrawn. J. Aubrey Jones, who has offered to sell a block on_Van Ness avenue, between Grove and Fulton streets, for the library site, objected to the selection of the Fifth street site because of the noisy surround- ings. Dr. C. D. Salfield favored the Van Ness avenue site and opposed the Fifth street site on the ground that he did not believe In_‘“removing a monument to the hero of the War of the Rebellion to | replace it by a monument to the hero of Homestead.” : L. M. King, secretary of the Merchants’ Association, favored the Fifth street site, provided the condemnation of the leases on the stores did not cost too much. School Director Roncovieri favored the use of the whole Lincoln School site for the library. Supervisor Wynn opposed the Fifth street site because it would pre- vent the people’from expressing their de- sires at the polls as to whether or not they are In fuvor of accepting Carnegle's offer. The only way to let the peof)le have a volce is to purchase a new site, for which bonds would have to be issued, sald Wynn, The Public Library Trustees petitioned the committee to recommend that in making up the next tax levy the library be allowed the maximum rate allowed by the charter of 2l cents on §100, which would net $100,000. Of this amount the Trustees plecge themselves (o expend be- tween 835,000 and $37,000 in the purchase of branch sites. Under this arrangement the Trustees belleve that suitable sites could be secured at less cost than under a bond {ssue. The communication was referrcd to the Finance Committee. New Schoolhouses Needed. The committee also recommended the transfer of a school lot on Sixteenth street hetween Noe and Sanchez streets to tne Public Library Trustees as a site for a branch library. The Supervisars are to purchase a lot in the nelghborhood of Six- {eenth and Noe streets to rexlnce the lot transferred. The Board of Education was requested to report avallable sites for tla erection of new schoolhouses proposed to be acquired by bond issues. Consideration of new schoolhouses will be taken up at next Thursday's mee(lng. The communication of the Federation ot Mission Improvement Clubs, designat- ing where new schoolhouses are needed in the Mission, South San Francisco and Potrero districts was referred to the | Finance Committee, The list follows: Sunnyside District, elght-class school, $40,- 000; Mission, Five-mile District, twelve-class school, $60,000; South San Francisco District, sixteen-class school, §100,000; Nuevo Potrero District, fourteen-class school, $80,000; Eureka | Valley and Park Lane District, elght-class school, $40,000; Ocean View District, twelve- class school, $60,000; Precita Valley District, elght-class school, $40,000. Chairman Braunhart announced that City Attorney Lane is working on his opinion in answer to questions regarding the acquisition of the Geary-street road as a municipal roa¢ and will probably render it by next Thursday’s meeting of the committee, when the matter will be taken up.

The Board of Works adopted a resolu- | tion yesterday recommending to the Board of Supervisors the raising of the grades on Market street, between Van Ness avenue and Twelfth street. The | grades will be ralsed about one foot throughout.

Of this sum 394200 is for salaries and wages, $3525 for keep for horses and $64.000 for new construction in underground dis- trict No. 8 and repairs. Hewitt also asks for $40,00 to equip the new central fire alarm and police telegraph office in the City Hall and $6000 for new equipment at the Harbor police station. Hewitt figures on the rental of 357 telephones for all municipal departments at $83S and five edditional telephones at e e—— ST. THOMAS, D. W.

Groom Is Wealthy Physician and Bride a Well-Known Teacher. Sufferipg untold tortires from aneu- rism of the heart and confined to his bed for a period of eight months, Dr. Col- borne S. Nellis, a well-known physician, was married to the woman of his cholce at the Russ House at 10 o'clock Tuesday evening. The bride was Miss Margarat Reddy, a school teacher, and it was her careful nursing during the past three or four months that won the sick man's af- fection. The groom is past sixty, but the age of the bride Is not disclosed. Dr. Nellis fancied that he was dying and the idea entered his mind that his friend and nurse should inherit his estate, which is saild to be considerable. He broached the subject to Miss Reddy and, on her assenting to the proposition, & messenger was dispatched In hot haste for Rev. John Stephens. A couple of the friends of the contracting couple were also summoned and the twain were made one. The sick man made the customary responses in a weak voice and it was plain that he was in great pain. The af- | fair created considerable gossip in the hotel in which Nellis had resided for more than twenty years. Acting on the advice of his wife, Nellis was taken to the home,of her relatives at 706 Pine street on Wednesday morning, The groom received callers yesterday and was congratulated upon the auspicious event.. Nellis was very ill last night and a report was circulated that he was dying. | When a Call reporter visited the hnusel the inmates declined to discuss the aged groom's condition except to say that the | publicity given the affair was most an- noying both to him and to Mrs. Nellis. | It was learned from other sources, how- | ever, that Nellis' malady is a fatal one | and that he cannot long survive. Nellis lost considerable money by the faflure of the Pacific Bank. He still has property of considerable value, however. When he was taken ill some eight months ago Miss Reddy visited him frequently. | She was at that time a teacher in ths | Irving Primary School, and when his con- | dition became serious she devoted her | sole attention to him, with the result that the marriage followed.
