Suilivan. FREIGHT BLOCKADE BEING BROKEN. The congestion of freight cars of the | Southern Pacific Company on the road Oie between here and Sparks is being re- DU |lieved. There were 4019 cars stalled L |on this road yesterday, about 1000 less | than there were at the same time last | week. The demurrage rate on hay cars |is now $5 a, day. Commencing next Thursday the demurrage rate on lum- ber cars will be increased at the rate |of $1 a day until it reaches the sum {of $5 per day. The congestion of the Southern Pa- |eific road has caysed a flurry in the |offices of the Santa Fe here. Orders came from the heads of the company vesterday to push with all speed the terminal facilities at China Basin. It was the original intention of the com- pany to have the terminal at that point ready by next April, but it since has been decided to have the big plant in service by November 1. This rush in completing the work is to avold any | similar congestion that might occur to the Santa Fe line.

VALLEJO, ‘Aug. 9.—Little else was discussed over the teacups of the naval colony on Mare Island this afternoon |than the news that Captain Alexander McCracken, captain of the yard, who, while acting as commandant - last month, at the last moment forbade the | bachelor officers on Mare Island to give 2 house party in the bachelor apart- ment-house, had been upheld by the department at Washington. Soon after Admiral B. H. McCalla, re- tired, had left Mare Island and previous to the arrival of the new commandant, McCracken was in charge of affairs. As had been the custom for years, the bachelor officers who live in the big apartment-house decided to give a garty to'® number of the society folk of an Francisco, who were refugees at | the yard with various officers’ families. The invitations had been sent out and all was in readiness when, on the eve of the party, McCracken sent word to the officers that it must not be held in the apartment-house, as that was Gov- ernment property and that the proper permission had not been given. The party was not held and Assistant Naval Constructor Gatewood took up the matter with the department. An answer was received today upholding MecCracken. e G REFUGEES OCCUPY ATTENTION OF LOCAL HUMANE SOCIETY Many Parents Are Fo; Guilty of Neg- lect, While Children Are Sent to Charitable Institutions.

He has sent the following let- ter to The Call: Editor of The Call: Dear Sir—Our attention is directed to an article in your issue of the Sth instant statin, that the Home Insurance Company of New York recentlg refused to receive a proof of loss submitted by a policy- holder on the ground that it was “too lgte” for the time had expired.
