The annual reports showed the home to | b2 in a prosperous condition. During the last year 103 boys and girls were taken care of. During the coming year those interested in the welfare of the home will make efforts to raise a building fund to erect a comfortable nursery in the Rich- mond district, where the home owns a large lot. The property is situated on| Lake street, between Fourteenth and Fif- | teenth avenues, and by the end of this year the management hopes to have a fine new building erected, as the one they | now occupy must be vacated during this | year. H. E. Law has already donated | $5000 to the building fund, and Henry Cowell has also given a donation of $1000 | toward the fund. It was decided at yes- terday’s meeting to make an earnest ap- peal to the public to subscribe toward the buflding fund. The San Francisco Nur- sery for Homeless Children is one of the | most worthy charities in the city, and the | appeal will no doubt result in the raising of a big building fund.

Protection Is Sought for Vari- ous Products of the State. The State Board of Trade voted yester- day to instruct the secretary to request the California delegation in Congress to work against any reciprocity measure tending to injure any of the industries of California. Delegates wers elected to represent the board at the meeting of the Sacramento Valley Developmnt Association, the San Joaquin Valley Commercial Association and the coast counties to be held at Sac- ramento next Monday, for the purpose of discussing the subject of protection to the fcrests of California and other measures of general interest to the State. A vote was adopted to publish the pamphlet written by Professor Wickson of the Uni- versity of California concerning the adaptability of Northern and Central Cal- ifornia for the growing of citrus fruits. The original steps were taken by the State Board of Trade some years ago to have the Calimyrna flg produced in this State by the importation of the blastopha- ga, or ig wasp. Since then, with the co-op- eration of the Department of Agriculture, the Calimyrna fig has been firmly estab- lished as an article of commerce. Yes- terday the board appointed E. . Maslin. | J. A. Filcher and B. N. Rowley a commit- tee to prepare an authenticated report of the agency of the board in this matter. These are the members of the committes that originally exploited the idea of the blastophaga In a communication address- ed to Secretary Wilson of the Department of Agriculture. The delegates appointed to go to Sac- ramento next Monday are B. N. Rowle: T. C. Friedlander, J. A. Filcher, Craigie Sharp and Rufus P. Jennings. Manager Filcher submitted a report of the doings of the board. During the year 1902 the board sent out 3745 letters in re- sponse to inquiries, 200,000 copies of liter- ature by mail and about 200,000 coples to attendants at conventions and persons who visited the free exhibit of the board in the Ferry building. The persons visit- ing the board rooms in the year 1302 num- bered 120,000, £ix more countles are affiliated with the board than there were one year ago. All countles now co-operating with the board are showing greater interest than heretofore. Following the recent cit- rus fair, and within two weeks of its close, the incentive being the showing made of citrus fruits at the fair, a corporation was | formed in Kern County to engage on a | large scale in raising oranges and lemon: | Ground has been selected and the devel- opment of water for the tract has begun. @ iR O RATE EXPERTS OFF FOR EAST Business Men of Coast Have New Problems to Consider. Representatives from the commercial community of San Francisco to the con- ference to take place at Chicago relative to the preparation of a new freight tarift for the transcontinental railways will leave this city for the East to-morrow night. They are W. R. Wheeler, Harry D. Loveland, Wakefield Baker, A. C. Ru- lofson and E. S. PHllsbury, the last named | being attorney for the commercial Inter- ests Involved. This conference Is certain | to be attended with important results. The Interstate Commerce Commission having intimated that an agreement be- tween the partles in interest would viate the nec ty of additional hearing of the controversy, an effort will be made to reach an understanding, and represen- ob- tat will be present from all the trans- | continental lines. and also from the, Busi- ness Men's League of St. Louis, the last | named organization being the one that | instituted the proceedings that led to #s long hearing before the Interstate Com- merce Commission, involving great com- mercial and transportation jssues. ‘While the Interstate C(ommerce Commis- | sion established certain principles, much | was left in question. FHere it is that di- | plomacy and expert knowledge will coma into play on both sides to the controvers The commission set forth that while | tarift that fixes the differentials between the | carloads and less than'carloads from the Middle West to the Pacific Coast eannot | be condemned as a whole, many of the details are in violation of law. The com- | modity tarift was censured by the com- | mission because, so thie commission found, it unlawfully specifies a number of va- | ridd commodity rates. especially for the hardware schedule. In the adjustment of | carload and less than carload rates, so | found the commission. while the differ- ential is not prima facie. excessive, it | does not follow that every differential un- | der- the tariff may equal those now ex- isting. The differentials between the car | 1oad and the less than carload rates were | found by the commission to be too great | in many instances, and it was also found | that the varled commedity rates In the | hardware schedule_and perhaps in some | athers, should be readjusted and perhaps | greater latitude should be given in the | shipment of practically the same articles shipped in mixed earloads, while the pres- ent record before ‘the commission fur- | nished no facts from which the commis- | sion could intelligently determine what | ought to be done in specific instances. | In this wide range of possibilities there | is seen ‘to be ample ground for discus | sion. The men who will be at the con- ference will be among the keenest in the | matter of freight tariffs in the United States. On one side is the Middle West | desirous of getting the jobbing trade of the Pacific Coast. Oun the other side are the business houses of the Pacific Coast. | Much has been settled in favor of this | coast by the decision of the Interstate Commerce Commission. The remaining | uestions have yet to be determined. It | there is no agreement at Chicago the | Interstate Commerce Commissjon will sit at St. Louis next ‘gnth to combider what is then undetermined. Sentenced to Five Years. Frank Loland was sentenced to serve five years in San Quentin by Judge Cook | yesterday. He was convicted several | months ago of stealing a gold watch from | Sitvio Bianchini on July 11, but as he claimed to be only 18 years of age he was sent to the Whittier Reform School, where he attempted to gouge a boy's eve out, and when punished for it claimed that he was 24 years of age. He was one of the trio who made a break from the | prison van at the Broadway jail and were chased and recaptured.
