Under the contract with the State the Pacific Mail is the | responsible party in the matter of the ' lease that gives to it certain dock priv- {ileges on the water front that are Jointly enjoyed by the three transpa- cific lines mentioned. The 'officials of the Pacific Mall have scrutinized the plans for the new dock and have ac- knowledged that they are satisfactory. To-morrow there will be a meeting of the Board of Harbor Commissioners at | which it will be decided, after mutual agreement between the steamship peo- ple and the State Commissioners, whether work shall be commenced that will change the dockage facilities at Brannan and Fremont streets and | Brannan and Second streets, from an- | cient to modern structures. The | amount to be spent in these improve- | ments is about $450,000. What is known as pier 44 will be a double-deck dock, something similar to the plans first submitted to the Pa- cific Mail Steamship Company and re- | Jected by it on the ground that it was too costly. The steamship line pays for the dock in rent money; that is, its monthly payments to the State must, within a given time, equal the sum to- tal.of the cost to the State of con- structing the dock. The monthly pay- ments to be made by the Pacific Mail Company will be decided at to-mor- row’s meeting. After the Pacific Mail Company re- jected the double-deck plans the Har- bor Commissioners went to work on modified lines and produced the plans that have now met the approval of the steamship people. Pier 42 wili be converted into a first- class cylinder pier dock. In fact both docks will be built on the cylindrical steel pier plan and guaranteed to last for decades. ———————— WEATHER BUREAU CHIEF RETURNS FROM THE EAST | Professor McAdie Tells of the Import- ant Work of the Convention 5 at Peoria. | Professor McAdie, the local Weather Bureau chief, returned yesterday from the East, where he has been attend- ing the convention of Weather Bureau officials at Peoria, Ill. The convention { lasted three days and the discussions were mainly upon the subjects of im- provement of the forecast, the study of meteorology in schools and col- leges and the new observatory on Mount Weather, Virginia, where the study of magnetic and solar physics will be conducted. The establishment of a similar institution on Tamalpais The subject of improving the weather forecast is one that affects the people. The average percentage of accuracy is from 85 to 90. And it is the resolve of the hundred weather experts attending the convention to raise that average by the invention of | instruments. The study of meteorology in schools, colleges and universities is generally spreading and Harvard makes it an entrance examination requirement. The idea is to educate the public in 18 | weather lore. —_—— Cellar Fire on Sutter Street. A fire started in the cellar of the Progress apartment-house, 1144 Sut- ter street, at noon yesterday. Fortu- nately it was brought under control ! by the firemen, who, by cutting the floor in the apartment of R. G. Wilkie, flooded the cellar with . streams of water, eventually extinguishing the | fire, which caused about $10,000 dam- | ages. The fire began in the accumu- | lation of rubbish in the cellar, where In the cellar | was also a lot of chemicals belonging te Wakerlee's drug store, with combus- tible material belonging to Miss Hilda Fecheimer, a florist.

The mat- ter has been taken up by the City Trustees. The first fire gecurred two months ago, and six business houses, five of them two-story structures, were de- stroyed. Two weeks later a second conflagration destroyed three more buildings. Lt is proposed to purchase a modern steam fire engine, abundant hose, sink new wells and secure lad- ders and latest fire fighting apparatus with the money secured from the bond issue.
