Favors Financing Avert Burden of Taxation. Henry Brunner, cashier of the Cen- tral Trust Company, has written to Mayor Schmitz that it will be possible to place a 4 per cent bond issue of the city and county of San Francisco abroad, and offers his services to act. He sets forth that the Central Trust Company, with its new connections in the French-American Bank of Paris, is in a position to take up a bond is- sue of $10,000,000 for San Francisco. He estimates that the sum mentioned will be sufficient to rebuild the burned to school houses, Hall of Justice and City | letter | Hall.

Insurance does not fully eover the loss, for many valuable works are practieally out of print. To the student, the scholar, the school and college, the professional man—in short, to almost the whole community, the loss of the library is so vast and extensive in its effects that to mention insurance in the same breath falls little short of mockery. Libraries are of too slow, expensive and laborious growth to be exposed to destrunction by the elements. They are the eduecators of the young. the recreation and solace of the elderly, the comfort of the invalid, the moral uplifters of the community and at once the press and pulpit of millious of the human race. Their influence upon modern life is incalenlably beneficent. Deprive the publie of its libraries and the one great predominant mental and moral support is taken away from it Therefore in rebuilding the city we should negleet no precaution to insure as far as possible the safety of our future libraries. They should be contained in'strictly fireproof buildings and the buildings themselves isolated, with plenty of vacant area on all four sides. We eannot z 1 to spend years of time and labor and millions of dollars in collecting valnable libraries to have them destroyed by fire. Once destroyed they are never fully regained. Ta BUSINESS FIRST. In times of pressing need the practical should take precedence over everything else. The present difference of opinion between the business men and the Burnham committee for the beautification of the city is a forcible presentation of this prineciple. It is an urgent necessity.that business shounld be resumed with- out any delay. Our banks and merchants are anxious to get trade conditions restored and they must not be hampered by the beautifica- tion committee, whose needs are not so urgent and can therefore wait a few days withont detriment to itself. The committee should not retard this resumption of business in any way. All per- mits which the business.men deem necessary should be granted them, snd for the time being the committee ean avoid any waste of time by turning its attention to the more distant streets beyond the limits of trade. Let ns get back to business. The beautiful and ornamental c:m' be considered later on. THE SAFE DEPOSIT BOX. One of the many valuable lessons of the fire is the importance of the safe deposit box. Most, if not all, of the safety deposit vaults of the local banks have now been opened and practically every one has been found in the same condition as before the fire. In the midst of that fierce conflagration, when ordinary ‘‘fire and burglar proof’’ safes were bent, warped and even sprung open and their valnable contents destroyed, in some instances to the actual fusion of money, watches and jewelry into one shapeless mass, the careful citizen who had stored ‘his valuable documents and family relies in a safe deposit box felt no anxiety concerning them. Ife imow they were practically safe. as they turned out to be. It is a lesson which every citizen should heed in the future. THE ' BANKS. W the opening of the commercial banks on Wednesday the suspension of business for the past thirty days is virtually ower. Checks may now be freely drawn and cashed and money will again cirenlate freely. Merchants can now get banking accommodations in replacing their destroyed stocks, aceounts can be balanced and credits resumed. The free clinking of gold coin will once more be heard. The bread lines will visibly diminsh. will all resume their regunlar daily sessions within the next four or five days, the Grain Exchange has already resumed and next: week will probably see business in full swing again.

Postmaster Fisk said yesterday that the fire had seriously hampered the efficiency of the postoffice in this city by destroying a large number of stations and their equipment. This loss compelled the office to devote all its resources to the handling of first-class mail and to keep second and third class matter waiting. Added to this handicap was the fact that the Postmaster was obliged to assign seventy-five of his force to Oakland-to assist in handling the increased mall there, caused by the ang- mented business consequent upon the fire. He added that by Sunday the San Fran- cisco office will be in full working order. S £ Marriage Licens: The following marriage licenses were issued yesterd.

Dog, Meets End Near the Park Hospital. Canine That Cheered Camp for Sick Is Run Down. “Misery” is dead. Misery was a dog, the mascot of the Park Emergen- cy Hospital. He joined the hespital staff when things were rustling and stuck till the death. Last night he was killed by a speeding moto-cycle and the attendants at the home for the sick in the park mourn his sud- den demise. . Along during the first rushing days, when chaos reigned and the surgeons, nurses and others at the improvised hospital were busy as bees, a scraggy little nondescript dog of doubtful ped- igree floated serenely into the camp. He was yellow haired and unkempt of coat. He just floated in and cast his lot with the rest. Misery took to his new home with as much ease as a chairwarmer takes to a cozy saloon. He ate at the first table while things were good and waxed fat as long as Dr. Millar had charge of the commissary. He romped and barked about the grounds and seemed extremely happy. © One day something akin to a tear was discern- ible slipping down Misery's face. Dr. Millar called in Drs. McGinty, Till- man and Hill and a consultation was held. No active cause for the drop- ping tears was fathomed, s0 it was concluded that the food did not agree ith Misery. The blame for the yel- low dog's morose condition was laid at the door of the nmew commissary. The “low down” was that Misery couldn’t stand the ‘grub.” Miss Sheehy and Miss Cummings, the nurses, took the little canine un- der their care and with a diet of sliced pineapple and chocolate wafers Mis- ery regained somewhat of his former self, but all attempts to get him into excellent form failed. It was opined in medical circles that his alimentary tract had been ruined from contact with hash, stew and other labor sav- ing devices in cooking. When the commissary was entirely abandoned, Misery wore his old-time smile and once again romped after the ambulances. He kept the late watch at the surgical tent: and as- sumed an inquisitorial attitude when a stranger essaved to work into the camp, after his own fashion. Every- body knew Misery. He was the life of the camp and his sudden taking off is more than keenly felt. Tast night Misery got in the path of a moto-cycle. He was terribly mangled. An autopsy revealed an upset stomach as the comtributing cause to the fractured skull that brought about his non-existence. They shot him to put him out of his pain. A little mound of green sod marks where lies all that is mortal of Mis- ery and the camp has lost its “luck.” ——————— Report Losses of Vehicles. -~ ° Gus Suhr, proprietor of a livery stable at 1639 Fddy street, reported to the po- lice yesterday that a horse and buggy val- ued at $175 had beén stolen from him.

Mayor and Committees Talk Over Finan- cial Items. Would Confine the Tax Rate to the Dol- lar Limit. Mayor Schmitz and the committee on | revenue-and taxation, together with the | finance committee of the Board of Su-| pervisors, spent several hours yesterday morning in looking over the budgets of | the city for several years past and study- | ing the Auditor’s reports, with a view of | presenting a budget at the earliest op-| portunity and outlining plans for the as- | sessment of the city from the present date. It is the intention of the authorities to keep the tax rate for the city and county within the dollar limit if such a thing is possible and practicable and they say it is. Tife reports of the Auditor pertaining to the valuation of city property for the last year was studied closely. ~The budget as presented by the Supervisors for many years past was also looked over and the figures compared by the com- mittees, Mayor and several experts who were present. The proposed appropriation for the im- provement and beautification of the city was discussed and it7is the object of the committees and the May to arrange the tax schedule and pare down the unneces- sary expenses of the city so /that they will not fall too heavily upon the tax- payers in g al.

Nelson has found among the books saved from his office the original block book, giving the 50-vara and 100-vara lots. The book was made in 1860 and was filed in the Hall of Rec- ords by William P. Humphrey in 1871, who was then City and Coanty Surveyor of San Francisco. Recorder Nelson gave the book to City Engineer Thomas P. Woodward to make use o it in the present enmergency. The block ‘book is of great value at present, as it shows the boundary line of all the 50 and 100 yara lots and the blocks in which they are situated.

Will Not Interfere Dispute of Presby- terians. in DECATUR, I, May 23.—Judge Johns today refused the application for an injunction to restrain the union of the Presbyterian churches. He said the case has no parallel in the juris- prudence of the United States. He treated the church as a voluntary or- ganization, the acts of whose highest tribunal are binding on all members and could not be interfered with by the courts if the acts be honest. As to doctrine, the court held that “whether the ‘doctrines of the Cum- berland Presbyterian church are wide- ly variant from those of the Presby- terfan church is _an gcclesiastical question solely upon which, having been decided by an ecclesiastical judiciary, the civil court is powerlegs to inquire.” The decision adds: “No court has ever enjoined an ecclesiastical body from considering what action it should take. This ap- plication is without precedent.” The Judge's opinion was read in the assembly. Dr. Steele introduced a resolution that, In entering the union, the Cumberland Presbyterians de not surrender any integral part of thelr doctrine. He read a state- ment made by the original Cumber- land Presbytery, which said that the question of fatality would not affect the Presbyterian system of doctrine. The resolution was adopted by 182 to 106. Dr. W. H. Black, president of the Missouri Valley College, the secretary, read the report of the committee on fraternity and union.

The question of polygamy came up and a resolution was adopted asking the church in the varfous localities to lend its infla- ence to the adoption of an~amend- | ment to the constitution of the United States prohibiting it. Officers of the Woman's Home Missionary Board were selected and much routine busi- ness disposed of.

The petition for the appeal is made by Hamilton vy Howard, the surviving complainant, Gore having lost his life on April 18. The suit had been brought to recover the Hotel Del Monte property, and a large tract of land, including the m mous sevénteen-mile drive in Monte: County. The final decree on demurrer dismissing the bill of complaint was made on June 2. 1904, and on the 2th of t same month an appeal was allowed to the Supreme Court of the United States by Judge de Haven, sitting as Circuit Judge. ©On December 4, 1905, the suit was dis- missed ‘for want of jurisdiction. Howard set forth that the proceedings in the pro- bate of Gere’s will had not advanced suf- ficlently far to enable the aflant to pro- ceed with the appeal.
