It was of high value to the State that such an exhi- bition existed in the miidst of Califor- nia’s chief city, to which visitors m be directed for information and from which exhibits could be withdrawn temporarily for use elsewhere. The report was made long and com- prehensive in view of the valuable use to which it may be put at St. Louis during the exposition. It included maps and illustrations setting forth locali- ties and products. The folldwing strik- ing facts stood out conspicuously: The State added since the last census’ year, has on the basis of reliable computation: 1 to its population, or pearly as many as Jded during the decade ending in 1900. present population cannot be far from 1,750, 00 In 1903 the shipments of fruits, wine, brandy and vegetables out of the State by rail amount- ed to 85,084 carioads. There was a net gain in 1903 of 10,546 cerioads, as compared with 1902, of which 7395 carloads were citrus fruits.

Orange tree planting in Northern and Central California was reported to be rap- idly progressing. Practicaily all the fresh deciduous fruit wi shipped from Northern and Céntral California. The shipments of fruit by sea from San Fran. clgco amounted to 42,837.5 tons. Wine exports were reported to have doubled since 1591. The total tons of wine shipped by rail_from San Francisco last year were 50,- 602.7, or 5060.3 carloads; of brandy, 3473. tons, or 347.3 caricads; and of wine and brandy not segregated the shipments were 8120.7 tons, or K12 carioads.

MANY INDUSTRIES. A revolution had been wrought in the dairy industry of the State by the utilization of large areas for alfalfa and by the discovery that cream could be separated from milk by mechanical means, and that the fat content of milk could be determined by a simple oper- ation, part chemical and part mechanical, The dairy output of the State increased §2,212,506 compared with 1902.

The segregated items of the recommendation follow: of sewers, $67, proparty, truction of elty 00; repaving Way for sewers, 50; work in $109,425: culverts, of streets, § ; rights of $25,000; total, $378.810, Tpe most important work outlined by the City Engineer includes the con- struction of an extension of the Sixth street sewer from Tehama to Brannan street at an estimated cost of $55,000. | | Another pronosed important improve- ment is the construction of a bitumin- ous rock navement along H street from First to ,Twentieth avenue, and the macadamizing of the street from Twen- tieth avenue to the Great Highway at a total estimated cost of $80,300, to- gether with the conatruction of artifi- {cial stone sidewalks | street to Eleventh avenue at an addi- tional cost of $26,175. The report also provides for the con- struction of a sewer at Buena Vista avenue, and thoroughfares fronting on Lobos and other public squares. City Engineer Grunsky yesterday | completed two reports on plans for an auxiliary municipal salt water system | to insure better fire protection and on the petition of the Santa Fe Railway system for a franchise to maintain a steam road along Indiana, Mariposa, Seventh, Sixteenth and other streets. The reports will be filed with the Board of Public Works for transmittal to the Board of Supervisors. The r rt on the Santa Fe franchise | | was delayed, as Grunsky desired to as- ER | | ‘ certain if anvthing definite would be { done in the matter of the proposed widening of Sixteenth street to the water front. The Southern Pacific Com- pany agreed to donate land for a dis- | tance of several blocks to increase the width of the thoroughfare, but no steps mainder of the thoroughfare.

The decision was reached only after a prolonged The meeting was packed and at one stage of the proceedings the tone was unmistakably hostile to embarking on so huge an enterprise. General Manager Hays, who had come from Canada especially to at- tend the meeting, saved the situation and when the final vote was taken there were only a few opponents to the Grand Trunk Railroad undertak- ing to build a transcontinental road. Sir Charles Rivers Wilson, presi- dent of the company, said the new line was justified by the -flow of pop- ulation from East to West and the increasing immigration into the Unit- ed States. The Grand Trunk could not hope to receive such generous treatment from the Canadian Govern- ment as the Canadian Pacific Rail- way, but the Premier, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, had acted absolutely fairly, in spite of violent political opposition, with the object of attaining addition- al facilities for the development of Canada. The president characterized the deposit demanded by the Cana- dian Government in conection with the agreement as an “extrémely un- necessary and unreasonable demand.” Then, one aiter another, sharehold- ers representing blocks of 50,000 and more shares rose and declared they had not had sufficient time to consid- er such a huge enterprise. | | have so far be®n taken to widen the re- are formally filgd with the Board of ident Chipman = gave figures | Public Works to-day.

Several large shareholders with- drew their proxies and placed them in the hands of the directors. The president, in reply to cries of “adjourn,” explained that the Cana- dian Parliament, at its meeting on March 10, must have an answer one way or the other. Vice President icism to rival railroads. Then General Manager Hays blunt- ly told the shareholders that if they did not accept the €anadian offer other influences would and that with- out a transcontinental extension the future of the Grand Trunk would be gloomy in the extreme. Hays pre- dicted a great future for the road, which would be able to hold its own in competition with the existing sy tems in Canada and the United States. After over two and a half hours’ discussion Allen's amendment was de- feated and the agreement was draft- ed. The semi-annual accounts were passed, but not without ecriticism of the Increased expenditures, president said were justified on count of the larger traffic, weather and higher prices.
