As stated by the California Promotion Committee, the clearings in San Francisco for the eek ending Thursday, noon, Februa 8 were $51,319,391.48, as against 458,305.47 for the week immediately ceding and $40,520,551.28 for the rresponding period a ar ago In these figures a present gain is shown of $3.861,086.01, over last week and $10,798,840.20, or almost 27 per cent, over the corresponding week of 1908. It should be borne in mind, in this con- nection, that before the fire the clear- ings of Oakland were made through the San Francisco cléaring house, while since that event such has not been the case. The clearings for Oakland dur- ing the week were $3,835,202.80, which added to those of San Francisco, make grand total for the two cities of .154,594.28. The clearings at San Jose for the current week were $570,- 4.58.

Hinton was well known all municipal circles under the old regime, and was sald at dne time to have as many friends as any man in San Francisco. Being interested in politics, Hinton had many acquaintances, but during his last few years he was pitifully de- | serted. His friends of former times had passed away. In the early hours | of the morning the old man was fre- quently seen on the streets, wandering disconsolately, a relic of past decades. Hinton was 77 years of age, and a native of London. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. M. E. Hinton, and his three sons, 1. T. Hinton, W. M. Hinton Jr., Guy Hinton, and a daughter, Mrs. Ada Hinton Moody. PLANS READY FOR COURT HOUSE The plans for the temporary home of the courts, which is to be erected on the Polytechnic High School lot, at Bush and Stockton streets, have been completed and work on the $50,000 building is to be rushed. Judge Car- roll Cook planned the arrangement of the building and his ideas have ben |carried out by the architects. The new Judictal building, as it has been suggested to name the struc- | ture, will be a three-story and base- | ment building of wood and brick, the | basement being made fireproof for the | storing of records of the Law Library and Sueriff’s and County Clerk’s office: | The first floor will contain five Jus. tices’ courts, a room for the Justices' | Clerk, a room for the secretary of the | Superior Judges, a reporters’ room, the County Clerk’s office, the Sheriff's of- | fice and the Law Library. On the sec- |ond floor will be three large and four | small courtrooms, with chambers and | jury rooms, and the office of the Dis- trict Attorney. The third floor will | contain two more large courtrooms and | three small courtrooms, with chambers and jury rooms. The building should ! be ready for occupancy by August. ik o Sosoi s S g !TWO0 LODGERS ARE ROBBED | OF LARGE SUMS OF MONEY Olsen’s Trunk Broken Open and $320 | Extracted—Feeley's Pocket Re- { lieved of $250 While He Slept John Olsen, who lives at 822 Battery street, reported to the police yesterday | that” his trunk was broken open and 18320 stolen.

At the custom-house it was stated vesterday that the institution thus victimized was the Central Trust Bank of Oakland. At the Oakland bank it was asserted that the fraud had been perpetrated upon an KBastern financial institution for which the Central Trust Bank acted as| agent. The fact remains, however, that | the wily Mongolian picked up $38000 of American gold, enough to make him a John D. Rockefeller among his people, and has buried his identity among 400,000,000 of his countrymen, so much alike that a foreigner cannot distin- guish between them. The /main hope of capturing the Oriental lies in the chance that, show- ing a disposition to splurge with hl! suddenly accumulated wealth, he may | | enddbw a college or two, build a hos- i pital and otherwise give to charity, | thus rendgring himself conspicuous. The police see another opportunity in the fact that he might some day re- turn to America, where he could be identified upon landing at San Fran- cisco by the photograph and Bertillon | measurements which were taken at the | time of his departure. On January 7 the Chinese, dressed in the height of fashion and with his | | the cashier of the bank and presented | & draft, supposed to be for $8000, drawn on the Hanover Bank of New York. When told that he must be identified, | he stated that that would be easy, but| as he did not desire to secure the cash | on this side of the Pacific, he merely asked for a bill of exchange on a bank in Hongkong. He said the draft was, glven him by a man named Woods in | a small Kentucky town. The Chinese added that he intended to leave on| the steamer the next day for China,| and the cashier of the bank believing | he would have ample opportunity to Woo reached Hongkong, gave him the | bill of exchange. But Woo cashed his bill of exchange in Hongkong before the fraud was discovered and beyond the fact that he is China the detectives have no clew to his whereabouts. —_— POLITICAL ECONOMY LECTURES Professor A. C. Miller of the Uni- lectures on political economy before the members of the Mechanics’ Insti- tute. The dates. and subjects are as follows: February 20, “The French In- demnity: An Episode in International Exchange”; March 20, “Commercial Crises: The Cause of Their Periodical Recurrence’ April 24, ‘“Capitalistic Combinations: A Study of Current Ten- dencies in the Organization of Busi- ness.” WAR OVER BEMS Miss Maud Lux of 2117 Howard street, the divorced wife of William Howard Baker, appeared before Bond and Warrant Clerk McCarthy day and asked that a warrant be | spouse for the theft of $6500 worth of | jewelry. She alleged that her safe de- posit box at the Western National Bank had been opened and the jewels | taken. The case was of such import- ance that Detective Harry Braig was | detailed. He ascertained that the in the bank, but that the ex-husband had at least $1600 worth of belgnging to his former wife. In making the complaint Miss Lux said that she had been married to| Baker eight years ago. Mutual dif- ferences caused them to separate. After for the companionship of her former spouse and made advances. He sap- parently received them, the same time he is said to have placed the majority of his affections in the keeping of another woman. The for- mer wife was aware of this fact, but thought if she showed her former hus- band a sufficient amount of confidence and love he would return to her. The result was that he secured two adia- monds from her valued at $1600 and created the suspicion that he had gone to the bank and secured the $5000 worth of jewelry. She insisted on a warrant and said she would appear today to get it. INSULTER OF GIAL 5 IRRESTED Anna Bandjord, a 17-year-old girl, complained to Police Judge Cabaniss yesterday that she had been ap- proached at the corner of O'Farrell and ‘Webster streets by a man unknown to her, who Insisted on making her acquaintance. He then followed her until she encountered Special Police- man Marks, who placed the fellow un- der arrest and took him to the Bush- street station. There he gave his name as George . Woodbury and his ocou- pation as a foreman brick mason. He was released on $25 bail. When Judge Cabaniss heard of the proceedings he raised the bail to §100 and ordered the Tearrest of the defendant.
