Cut in Force Made Necessary by the Depletion of the Relief Fund. BERKELEY, May 4—The guard of | sixty men that has been patrolling the | streets of Berkeley at night, since the | earthquake, has been reduced from sixty to twenty-five members. The guard is made up of United Veterans of the Spanish War, who offered their ser- vices for patrol duty when it was seen that the influx of strangers might make necessary an addition to the regular police force. The men have been paid $1 a day and rations. Their headquarters are at 2065 Center street. The relief fund has been ! drawn upon for the money to pay these men, but the fund has’'been depleted until it is now necessary to cut the force. The veterans are all young, able bodied men, many of whom lost their | positions as a result of the fire, and who have found the meagre wage and rations a boon, at this time. They have | maintained -splendid order in the col- "lege town, no offenses of a serious char- acter having occurred, as & rosult of their vigilance. ' Oakland School Census.

As Fillmore street is the Market street of the city-as-it-is, so have the wharves and bulkheads of the water front assumed the added impor- tance that was California street's in the city-as-it-was. The State property along the water front is in big demand by shipping people, and other interests are exerting influence to secure temporary locations outside the fire scars. Even the real estate speculators are not overlooking this unharmed strip of business territory. A ! business-like ' Individual ap- proached President Spear of the Har- bor Board yesterday. “I am representing the nery Interests of the city, 'and have been delegated Yyou and arrange for the block of State property.” Spear informed him that the State made no leases. The man was insistent and enlarged upon the importance of the industry fruit can- Mr. Spear, to call on the sake of the business' of the port, that the fruit canners be located near the water front and at once. “By the way,” asked President Spear, “what particular cannery are you in-~ terested in?” The man made a long explanation that explainéd nothing. “You tell the cannery people 1 come to me individually. Each case will be considered by itself, and if we can do anything to help them eut for the time being it will be done” was!| Spear’s ultimatum. | Then the man told the truth. He was a real estate broker. If he got control of a block of State land, he said, he could turn it over to the can- nery people and make a fat commis- |sion on the transaction. l He did not get the lease. e el i lcONTENTS OF BIG SAFE REDUCED TO CHARCOAL Healy, Tibbitts & Co. Find Part of Firm’s Records Converted Into Tooth Powder. One of the “fireproof” safes of Hea- ly, Tibbitts & Co. who had offices in i the Buckley building, was opened yes- | terday on the bulkhead of Mission- | street whart. It was a large safe, with 'thick walls and heavy doors, but all its “fireproofness” had availed nothing in the awful heat of that fire. Books, papers and woodwork were reduced to crumbled charcoal, as totally destroyed as if they had been fed into a white- hot furnace. About 3200 in silver coln was all right, the discoloration being the only indication of the heat to which it had been subjected. The contents of about a hundred safes opened in the vicinity of the water front have been‘found in simi- lar condition, San| Cascade, from San Francisco.

OAKLAND, May 4—The Board of Supervisors yesterday passed a reso- lution providing for the gemeral in- spection of chimneys throughout the county. Each Supervisor is to appoint one or more inspectors in his distriet. The price, where there is but one chimney, is to be 75 cents, or where there is more than one chimney the price shall be 50 cents for each. In this way, it is stated, the people gen- erally will be protected in case of fire, 1as the Board of Fire Underwriters has made a rule that it will not pay losses .| until chimneys have been inspected. i Acting upon the opinion of the Dis- trict Attorney, who says that all coun- ty officers may do what they are not prohibited from doing, the Board of Supervisors held a regular meeting | this morning, there being no prohibi- tion against the tramnsaction of busi- ness on a legal holiday.

BERKELEY, May 4—Considerable | perturbation was noted among the re- | lief camp workers yesterday when the announcement was made by the gen- eral relief committee that all the sup- ply stations but one in Berkeley were to be closed and that goods would be dlstributed only upon requisitions |drawn by the managers of the sub- | stations. The general relief commit- | tee has issued an explanation to the yaggrieved workers at the sub-stations, 45howing how necessary was the meas- ure adopted, in that it prevents impo- sition by unscrupulous persons, who have been able hitherto to draw sup- plies from various stations, thus de- | frauding the relief forces and those |that gave the supplies. Incidentally the managers of the sub-stations have | been informed that their work in the handling of the supplies entrusted to them has been admirably conducted, and they are highly praised for the efficiency and public spirit they have shown.
