The Mayor was advised that organized labor not only of Cali- fornia but the Pacific Coast was a unit against any further encroachments of the Japanese and would never consent to have the Japanese enrolled in the | white schools. The picnic committee re- ported progress. Much discussion took place over the following amendment to e International constitution, which was ted upon favorably: “Amend section 26 by adding thereto: Any member upon taking out a retiring card may have the option to retain his privileges in the sick and death benefit fund by paying 35 cents & month to the corresponding ncial secretary of the local union ) issued the retiring card. Sald 85 cents shall be paid as provided in section 112, and then forwarded by the corresponding financial secretary to the general secretary-treasurer, with a rec- ord by whom paid. The full amount so pald to be placed in the sick and death | benefit fund of the international union. Upon failure to pay said 35 cents, as provided In section 112, a member out on a retiring card shall forfeit his rights and privileges in the sick and | death benefit fund, unless he shall, within thirty days, pay a reinstatement fee of §$3 and all delinquent dues. Fail- ure to pay dues by & member out on a retiring card and consequent forfeiture of rights in sick and death benefit fund shall not operate to annul retiring card.” \\Yor)ké of Development May Affect Market ‘rm, the market for Nevada mining | #ocks remained quiet yesterday, with w changes price and with few arge m of individual stocks, conditions for n view.

F. Bowie, Mrs. Hancock’s attorney. Hancock was described as a spendthrift and accused of neglecting the welfare of his first wife and his daughter in order that he might have the exclusive use of a large income for himself. “Today this man has his antomobile— an expensive luxury, which he says he cannot sell—yet he has not given a cent to his first wife or his daughter since the fire,” declared Attorney Bowie. “He gives costly dinners at the Palace Hotel and frequently speeds to Monterey in his motor car for a few days’' outing, yet he refuses to pay for his daugh- ter's schooling.” By the original decree Mrs. Hancock was awarded the property at 928 Brod- erick street, where she lives with her daughter, and $300 a month alimony, secured by a lien on other property at Sixth and Natoma streets. ‘Hancock desires to have this lien removed on the ground that he lost heavily in the fire and must borrow money on the property to obtain funds with which to improve his other holdings. It was stated that Hancock was $2400 in ar- rears in alimony on November 1 of last year and has not yet paid the amount. Attorney Hiram Johnson, acting for Hancock, argued that the decree should be modified to dispose of the lien in order to protect his client from further |loss, and he pointed out that Mrs. Han- cock still has possession of the Brod- erick street property and a sufficient | HOWELL CRITIGISES CITY OFFICILS Real Estate Man Points to Neglect as to Restora- tion of Public Buildings DUFFEY E SPARED | J. R. Howell, the retiring president of the San Francisco Real Estate| Board, in the final report that he sub- | mitted at the meeting in Promotion | Hall yesterday, took the municipal authorities severely to task for their neglect and indifference in the matter of restoring the public buildings of the city. President Duffey alone was spared the sweeping criticism. A word | of approval was spoken for the United Railroads for its actlvity in rehabili- tation work. Howell also described the efforts that had been made to have a limit placed on the number of saloons in the commercial district, and he said that the Police Commission had agreed to meet the wishes of the real estate men. The report of B. C. Cadwalader, the secretary of the board, was approved. A large Increase in membership was reported. Officers for the ensulng term were elected as follows: Hdgar L. Hoag, president; David Rich, vice president; J. H. Speck, treasurer; B. C. Cadwal- ader, secretary. The three new direc- tors are David Rich, John McGaw and 0. C. Baldwin. The board voted to indorse the plans for the Pacific Ocean Hxposition to be held here in 1913, and also extended its support to the harbor improvement committee and the Street Repair As- sociation. It was the sense of the real estate men that something should be done in regard to fire protection of the city. A system of cisterns will be advocated. income to maintain her comfortably.

Oakland, Cal, May 20, 1906. KEYNOTE MINE AND MILLING CO, Mr. O. S. Williams, President, 320 Railway Exchange Building, Chicago, IlL.—Gentlemen: . In December of last year the writer was asked by Mr. S. J. Hendy to go down and look at your mine in Inyo County, with the express object that if the mine in the writer's opinion would warrant it, we were to put in a plant having a capacity of 100 tons per day—i. e, we were to furnish machinery and you were to build a wagon road, so that the machinery could be easily transported to the mine. T will frankly istate that I was greatly surprised at the mine, it being a great deal better tham T anticipated, and one which will, in my estimation (and T have so reported to Mr. Hendy), safely stand the installation of such a plant as we herewith hand you specifications of. A While the first cost of this plant might seem a little high, it was absolutely necessary to put in such a plant for the reason that where the power is required to be distributed over such a large area of ground my idea is to put in one central generation station to run the mill by motors, the two compressors by motors, the sawmill by motor, anflikewlse the pumping plant. = f you did not do this it would mean a separate boiler and engine at each place, together with & distinct engineer and fireman, which in the course of a very few months would mean a very comsiderable expense, and more than offset the cost of this original installation. In the matter of fuel alone, by putting in the tentral generation set and distributing the power as we have figured on, it will save at least 50 per cent. " T certainly regard your mine as one of more than evident value, and one upon which an expenditure of $100,000.00 would certainly be justified. Should you desire an additional 20 stamps at any time it would mean just the bare cost of batteries and concentrators, amounting on the aggregate to less than $5000. In regard to fuel, will state that% did not think it advisable to put in a gas producing plant, firstly, on account of the location which would lower the efficiency of the plant at least 30 per cent, and secondly, as you will only be 14 miles froln the railroad depot when the road is completed, and it will be economy for you to burn oil under the boilers. Yom wilF burn on an average about 25 barrels of cil per day when running full, i. e, if everything is in operation at the same time, but as your compressors, sawmill. pumps, etc., will not be in operation more than half the time you are safe in figuring on about 15 barrels of ail per twenty-four hours. If the cost of this oil was $2.00 per barrel, delivered at the mine, it would then mean 30 cents per ton for the item of fuel, which I consider very cheap. We trust these specifications will meet with your views, and that we may have the pleasure of hearing from you further on the subject. We remain, your very truly, JOSHUA HENDY MACHINE WORKS, (Signed) Henry C. Carr, Engineering Dept. This letter shows that the contract for the wagon road has been let. Said contract with the amount necessary for its completion has been put up in the bank by the KEYNOTE MINE AND MILLING COMPANY.

Second Condition—Prospective investor must send a practical and experienced mining engineer or expert to the property. Third Condition—We will order refunded all moneys thus d ted, ;lm the cost of the trip (our liability limited to 10 per cent of the amount of subscription), ded said engineer or expert does not find sufficent ore already on the dump and exposed in the workings that will average $15.00 per ton, to keep a 20-stamp mill running day and night for 300 days (a milling year). At $15.00 per ton with a 300 days’ run, this finding means a grand total for one year of $225,000.
