The recent storm, according to Pro-| fessor McAdie of the Weather Bureau, will be most beneficial for the State. The rain was general and of unusually even distribution. The average rainfall over the whale of California was approxi- mat a half inch. The Sacramento River Valley experlenced the severest part of the storm. The wind was from the southeast during the time of the aviest rainfall. The ocean Was very ugh along the coast as far north as the mouth of the Columbia River. Thus far in March, the rainfall has been greater than in the corresponding month of any year, with the exception of 1899, for nearly two decades. In March, 18 the rainfall was 7.61 inches.

FRANCISECO CALL., TUEFSDAY, MARCH 31 WUUH] LESSEN KSPHYXIATIONG Supervisors Aim to Re- duce Danger From Water Gas. May Require Mixture of Coal Product With More Dead- ly Hluminant. A resolution was Introduced at yester- | day’s meeting of the Board of Supervisors |by D'Ancona requesting the joint com- ttee on Lights and Health to advise as to what is the greatest percentage of coal gas that can be required to be used in the manufacture of illuminating gas oy ordinance without unfairness and Injus- tice to the companies concerned under the | rates now prevailing and under the rates that will prevail fom July 1, 1903, to June 30. 1904. D’Ancona explained that the resolution was designed to find some means to put a stop to aspbyxiations by water gas. He | thought that there should be about 50 per cent of coal gas mixed with the water gas phyxiations. He read the following state- ment on the subject: The increased danger of gas poisoning when coal gas is supplanted by water gas, with its high carbon monoxide content, is shown by the statistics bearing on the subject at Bos- ton, Mass. In 1888, when but 1 per cemt of the gas sold was water gas, there were no deaths, swgeidal or accidental, from gas pois- oning. 'In The following year there was but one. in 1800 the percentage of water gas rose to | 8 and there were six depths—four accidental and two suicidal. In 1892, as a result of permissive legislation, 52 per cent of the gas sold was | water gas, and the deaths rose to fifteen. In 1897 the percentage rcse to 93 and the deaths | of which were accl. In the five years 169 deaths had oc- dal ended September 1, 1599, | currea. D'Ancona also introduced an ordinance | requiring the use of *“‘mercaptans” in the | manufacture of gas to give it an offensive odor, so that it could be recognized as | poisonous. The ordinance was referred | to the joint Light and Health Committee. By a vote of 11 to 6 the contract for do- | ing the city printing was awarded to the | Evening Post Publishing Company for 15 | cents per half inch for each insertion. Braunhart’s motion that the contract be given to the Journal of Commerce, which | bid 11 cents, recelved no second. A. Ruef, attorney for the Post, argued | that the bid of the Journal of Commerce | skould be rejected because the paper did not have a circulation of:8000 individual subscribers. Thomas Riordan, represent ing the Journal of Commerce. held that| the paper had a contract .to supply #000 copies to the Engineering and Mining Re- view and should receive the contract be cause its bid was the lowest. A resolu- | tion was adopted declaring the Post (o be the official newspaper of the city. i s Sty B O ILL HEALTH CAUSES | HORSESHOER'S SUICIDE | Sickness and Misfortune Prompt) Waite of Honolulu to Turn On the Gas. [ C. E! Waite, senior member of the horse- shoeing firm of C. E. Waite & Co., at Honolulu, committed suicide yesterday | morning by turning on the gas in his| rcom at 207 Kearny street.

Payson, assistant to the | president. and W. A. Bissell, assistaat | trafic marager of the Santa Fe road, have returned from Eureka, where they | went a week ago to inspect the Eureka and Iel River Railroad, recently pur- chased by their company. Discussing their trip yesterday, Captain Payson said: We looked ‘over the property and were well pleased with it. The intention of the company is to extend the line southward ten miles a+ soon as possible. Surveyors are at work al- ready selecting the route. Whether or not the line will eventually connect with the California Northwestern road at Willits I am not pre- pared to say, for 1 do not know the relations between the two companies. There certainly t been any alliance made as regards all, has traffi “The aim of the Santa Fe road, of course, Is to reach tidewater with its new line and the natural presumption is that ft will build the entire distance if it cannot arrange for con- nections with some other line. Captain Payson added that one of Lantry Bros.! engineers accompanied Mr. Bisseil ‘and himself to Eureka for the purpose of getting data relative to the cost of ex- tending the Eureka and Eel River road to the south. —_———— SWINDLER OF WOMEN 1s HELD T0 ANSWER Obtained Ioney From Gertrude Stephens by Promising to Marry Her.

Pass to Print Ordinance Mod- ifying Street Work Speci- fications. ; The Board of Supervisors yesterday passed to print a number of declaratory ordinances providing for submitting to a vote of the people certain public im- provements to be constructed by incur- ring a municipal bonded indebtedness. The bills designating the improvements deemed of public necessity are as fol- lows: Bill 847—New City and County Hospital (ad- ditional_to the amount provided by extra tax levy of Tla cents, 1902-1903). New sewer system.

The site selected is | the block bounded by Van Ness avenue, Grove, | | Fulton and Polk streets, but the City Engineer | | is authorized to select any other site in the vicinity deemed more desirable. | Brandenstein oposed the issuance of bends to pay for repaving accepted streets | at a cost of $1,000,000 on the ground that| it is wrong to impose the burden on suc- and other roads. The ordinance authorizing the setting aside of $1500 out of the urgent necessity fund to make up a deficiency in the sala- ries of copyists in the Recorder's office | was finally passed on reconsideration of | the vote by which it was lost at the last meeting. The ordinance reducing the width of the idewalks on West Mission street to fif- tcen feet was passed to print. | The Italian-Swiss Colony was granted | permission to lay a spur track on Green- | wich street, between Sansome and Bat- | tery, to connect with the belt road. A. Aronson was granted a permit to construct a building, 130 feet high, at the northwest corner of Thlrd‘ and Mission streets. Grades were ordered established at | points on Tennessee, Pearl, Fairmount, | Academy, Eisie, Twentieth, Frederick, Pledmont, Jones, Francisco, Waller and | | Java streets and Virginia, Eugenfa and | Masonic avenues. ' Ordinances were finally passed imposing | | a license on public passenger vehicles and | on drivers of the same, and providing for | the acceptance of Bryant street, between Main and Beale, and Hartford street, be- | tween Seventeenth and Eighteenth streets. | WILL FIX DAMAGES.
