Bpecial tv The Montreal Star.San Francisco, April 25.\u2014 More shouting took place last night, and the local police charge it to the troops.Considerable excitement was caused this morning by a fusilade of shots al Fillmore and Geary streeis, within three blocks of the headquarters uf the relief department of the city government.It was learned ufter- ward that une man, whose name is unknown at present writing, was kill- | ed.His body was removed in an autos mobile.Several men were also wounded, according to the reports.Shooting was also reported as having vecurred a the foot of Vun ness avenue, but no word of any casualties was receiv ed from there.Looting continues, but those offenues are growing less frequent owing Lo the .thorough understanding that the militia will kill any vandals caught in th: acts Haweyer, so many repuluble citizens and inoffensive persons have been injured during the last few days {ur trivial causes that the sentiment uf in- digmation is spreading and to-day mn prominent police officer said that'unless the militla was withdrawn at onc-.he feared an outbreak.It appears that the greater portion of the unprovoking shooting has been committed by the militia and special policeinen, who shoot \u2018without warning.The greatest feeling in this regard has been directed against the mUitia and it is-hecause of this that the police fear treuble.The estimates of the number of persons kijléd in the disaster still differ greatly.Gen.Grealy.Who is in command of the troops, having superseded FIRST PICTURES OF THE CALIFQ RNIA DISASTER\u2014The interior of a house in Napa City, after the first shock.Gen.Funston, does not think tha!

regard to party, demands power to expropriate telephone lines within its territory with a view to cheapen universal telephony under provincial en- \u2018couragement and supervision.The municipalities point out that any telephone business must necessarily be divided into two separate portions, the Jocal franchise which should be controlled by the municipality, like the gas ors t railway and lighting, and, secondly, the long distance lines, which aye essentially Dominfon or provincial matters.In order to do justice to vested interests aiready involved, it is Proposed that the

and the names of these men we should know.even if their publication puts them in danger of ParlHamentary acton no more \u201cforeign than Ottawa.Bo much has been uncovered in this matter that it can hardy be allowed to it 1s.The Government, for its own credit, should dispel the cloud of suspicion which is certain to gather about such a transaction if there be an attempt to conceal the .Jaots.If the revelations should be left in their present provocative state, :strengthened by the fact that the «Government is going to cancel the Teontract, Inferences will be drawn.\u201c which may be very unjust, and which | : must have a bad political effect \u2018upon \u2018the Administration.More light ought; to.be let In on tho business; and we _ should not be asked to check our legitimate curiosity until there is nothing , .left to be told But the names of any , whom we may have hired to break the i laws of friendly oountries\u2014and event theye' names should be submitted to a _ committse of \u2018Parliamentary leaders.pape GOOD ROADS IN NEW YORK.À strong bill has been pussed by the : New York Legislature looking to the \u2018dmprovement of country roads.By 4 sum than fifty million dollars is to By the provisions of the bill, the state \u2018engineers and surveyors are \".directed to gonquit -with- the board puportisars and the - various Tov boards, na: to pl upon a count ;

The Senate divorce committes Is so busy this year that it wants to sit at the same time as the Senate itself, the members being free to go where they expect to ind the most interesting pro- Ceadings.This disposes of the theory that the political divorce mill pravents our people from applying for divorce.The records of American divorce courts, If examined for Canadian names, would also dispose of that ostrich notion.1t merely has the effect of making divorce a luxury of the rich\u2014the class which mest abuses the practice in the United States\u2014in- stead of an act of justice to all classes ailke.A VOTING BILL.(St.John Globe.) \u2018The Nova: Bcotia Legisiature |a côénsiad- ering a compulsory voting bill promoted by Dr.Bissett, member for Richmond, Cape Breton.The bill provides that the presiding officers at voting booths shall Keep a list of those who did not vote at an election; that it should be sent to the sheriff, and at the next revision.the non-voter would be required to give sat.Fistuctory reasons to the revisors why he did not vote, or he would be debarred fem voting for a period of two years.The revisors would become an Important who occasianally do not egercisa thelr: right of franchise is large.The \u2018\u2018punishment\u201d provided In the Bill for non-voting will not be considered very serious by tho carelossg elector.reese een Ordered Latimér\u2019s Release.Special to the Montreal Star.Calgary, Alta., April 36.\u2014The arder of Chief Justice Rifton for the release of W.H.Latimer,the Philadelphian, awai*- ing extradition on a charge of embess- ling $190,000, makes some caustic remarks on the cage.Tha Chief Justice points out that Latimer was held tn custody from the 25th of Jahuary to the 21st of April for extradition to tha State of Pennsylvanie that no action was- taken by that state, that it was apparent that the provisions of the Extradition Act kad been utilized wita some ulterjor motives by the representatives of the gourt snd thelr anxietv fer the proseoution-of the alleged crim.!

the human race, and that a very considerable portion of the carth 1a within the mone of its activities.That zone will remain populated, and San Francisco, In spite of Its terrible experience, will be buflt anew on its ruins.Mankind is adventurous, and dogged In \u2018adherence to the communities it has established.Canadians are fortunate in being remote from the world belt that has been the scène of the great majority of the earth's convulsions, but that is an additional reason why we should feel for the stricken people of the ruined city on the Pacific.\u201d Wine Used to Put Out Fires.An Incident of the fire in the Latin quarter on the slope nf Telegraph Hill.in Bani Francisco, is worthy of note.The only available water supply was found In a well dug in early days.At a critical moment the pump suddenly sucked dry.end the water in the well wan exhaus:- ed.One who was not on that hill in the oircle of flames cannot even Imagine the situation, \u2018\u2018There 1s a last chance, boys was shouted, and Italian residents crashed in their cellar doors with axes and.calling for assistance hegan rolling out barreln of red wine The cellars gave forth barrel after barrel until there were fully 500 gallons ready for use.Thon barrel hesds were smashed in and the bucket brigade turned from water tn wine.Backs were dipped In the wine and used for beating out the fire.Beds were stripped of their blankets, and these were soaked In the wine and hung over the exposed portions of the cottages, and men on the roofs drenched the shin- glen and sides of the house with wine.\u201cAnd the wine won.All Friday afternoon and \u2018until Saturday morning those lade \"ap the hill carried on the fight.much of \u201cthe \u201ctifis Using wine instead sf water.They saved their homes.and went thir.- Uty-to save the wine to pour on the fire.wr \u201cWoldiers Preused AN Into Work, - The soldfers and the police forced every available man in the dnwntown district of \u2018Frisco to work.no matter where they were found or under what conditions.One party of four men that came downtown In an automobile was stopped nn Market atreet by the soldiers.The wall dressed men were ordered nut of the machine and compelled to assist in clearing the debris from Market street so that provisions might be hauled up through the centre of the city, Then the auto- moblle was \u2018loaded with provisions and sent out to relieve the hungry people in the parks.Men coming from the unburn- ed district in the western addition with.the Intention of crossing the bay to go to Oakland and Berkeley were stopped ln the downtown section and put to work.One case which attracted attention was that of a young man who was pressed into servios by the soldiers.He came clad In a fashionable summer suit, straw hat.and kid gloves.The minute the suards caught sight of him he was grabbed and ordered to help clear the bricks and other debris off the car tracks.At first he hesitated, but the sharp point of a bayonet convinced him that there Was no escape; for the next five hours he was doing a laborer\u2019s work in spite of tis handsome attire.Chanted Psalm Amid Ruins, In the waste of ruins that stretch for miles where once proud office buildings and stately residences of Frisco stood, many a tragedy of despair, even of dreadful insanity that has come of the snapping of strained reason, has been enacted.As the setting sun glowed red through the laslly drifting smoke haze, a reporter passing down the desert about lower Van Ness avenue encountered a wild and eerie figure.An old grizsled man, who wore the clerical cloth and whose beard swept his breast like the beard of the prophet, stood in the midst of the street alone.He, raised his arms above his head and ch/hted: \u2018Desolation, desolation,\u201d Then 24 swung into the sonorous psalm of David, \u201cI Will Lift Up Mine Eyes to the Hills Whence Cometh My Help.\u201d With his head held back and his eyes closed in ecstacy, this latter day Jeremiah sang the song of the Lord's mercy to the smoked ruins on every Rand.\u2014\u2014 New Glase-Making Methods.A departure in glass-making methods threatens almost a revolution in the in- \u201custry, according to United States Consut deck, of Nuremberg.Should It realiy possess the advantages claimed It would causes serious damage to the blowing slass Industry in this district.Bo far, two methods have been employed in the Jnanufacture of crystal plate glase and mirror and window glass namely.that of casting.and blowing, nethod js the invention of Mr.Four- vault, a Belgian, who

Africa.Thera.are alse.many and various lines of American goods saleable there, and American trade is progressing rapidly in the country.\u201d said Mr.Simpson R.Lathan, of New Yori at the Windsor, yesterday.\u2018\u2019The white population is increasing down there, and now .numbers 1,965,000 souls out of a total population of 6,330,- 800.\u201cOne af the finest offices In South Africa has just been completed by one of the American inevrence companies, \u2018and the Cape Town City Couricil has accepted the plans of a firm of American archi teots for a modern théatre, and a half million dollar palace hotel.American automobiles aro aloo the rage over there Just now.\u201cWithin the last twenty-fite years the discoveries and development\u2018 that have been going on in Africa are simply amazing: even the very heart of the Dark Continent, which was unknown fifty years ago.is mow reached by railway lines, and Victoria Nyanza and Victoria Falls are to-day familiar names.\u201cThese Victoria Falls are in every respect the equal of Niagara, and tourists may take the train at Cape Town and be brought right into the Falls.These trains are up to date in every respect, and are furnished with electric fans, sleeping and dining cars, shower haths ahd even private saloon cars for the wealthier clare.\u201cWere it not for the difference in the landscape, a traveler would be at a loss to know whether he were on an African or American raftway train.\u2018The principal articles exported from the Umited States into Cape lalony and Natal amounted te about $15.000,000 last year, and this will increase in proportion to the development of the Dark Continent.\u201d Earthquake Recollections of 1868, Mr.D.W.Higgins, who was in Van- \u2018couver on the day news waa received of the earthquake at Fam Francisco, beonm- ing reminiscent, want hack over many events in connection with the earthquake at \u2018Frisco in 1868.\u201cWith my wife and {wo Httle children I landed at San Rrancisco from a Panama steamship the diy before the earthquake on my way to British Columbia.\u201cThe shock came at just fifteen minutes to dight o'clock.It lasted 45 Eec- onds, and was so \\dolent that people were thrown to the ground, buildings wera wrecked and valuable property destroved.\u201cThe frame bufldings in the suburbe suffered severely; chimney topa fell in, pipes were broken and water deluged the apartments.Heavy pieces of furniture were thrown from side to side; marble manteipleces, chandeliers and gas-pipes were destroyed.\"The shock was eocompanied by =a grinding poise that wounded Wke the growling of an enrdged animal.\u201cWhen the violence of the shook abated the terrified people fled into the street, which was soon filled with a sareaming.shouting multitude of men, women and children, many of them but half-dressed, \u2018and isomé of them not dcased at an.Women.- would=~tun on->the streets holding a -child by the arm or by the jeg.fust as they grabbed them up, and would run along with the ohild as though it were a chicken they had in their hand.\u201cThere were no big hotels or sky- scraping struttures in San Franciero in 1868, but the frame bulldings wers numerous.\u2019 \u201cThe lose of lita did not exceed thirty souls, but a great many wers Injured.There were indirect damages in real estate values that amounted tp millions.Thousands encamped on, the sand hiHs for-days, refusing to remain another night in a building.\u201cMany sold off their bejongings at a eacrifice and fled from the city and state.and for a long time the prejudice against Ban Francisco as a business and residential centre continued to exert am influence against its growth.However, public confidence hes been long reatored.and thes construction of majestic buildings has gone on merrily.\u201cIt is pretty hard to think that in three minutes the results of the labors of half a oentury \u2014 magnificent structures af Babel-like proportions and works of art by some of the ablest architects and artists of the afe\u2014whould be mingled in \"common Fuin.\u2018However, these things wiki happen, and especially do they seem to happen in San Francisco.In a conversation 1 had once with a Spanish priest, ha remarked with energy: \u2018Senor.the day will come when this whole peninsula (San Franolsco) will be sunk in the sea.It was thrown up dy the ooean, and back to the ocean It will go some day.\u201d Removing \u2018Mines at Esguimalt.\u201cSince the Federal Government has taken over Eequimait.the mines mt the entrance to the harbor have been removed, and the cables and other material connected with them placed in the naval stores.\u201d This statement was made by Mr.J.Sutherland, of Esquimalt, an Frank , the \u2018Queen's, last night.\u201cWhen Esquimalt was a fortress and naval station, the Inpemial Goverment arrangwd a series of submarine mines by.expert submarine Mining engineers for the purpose of gustding the entrance to the harbor.Themes have now been removed according to instrootions from Ottawa on the score that their maintenance requires too much money.\u2026.\u201cThe work on the Signal

certainly as optimistic as he is far from surplus backing.| the mark when he says that $175,000,000 \u2018will cover the entire amount loss.Of course it is very considerate in the commissioner to

face of San Francisco received added impetus to-day through the announcement that the Southemm Pacific railroad would lend all its assistance toward carting away the Alpine heaps of bricks.wisted iron, burned timber and miscellaneous debris which chokes every highway.The railroad has declared its Intention of building à track through the heart of the devastated city from Harrison street to the bay and to run its flat cars in for the wreckage that wust be clearel away before new building can arise and the traffic resumed.Between three thousand and four thousand men will be employed by ths railroad in this work.The railroad will carry the debris wherever the authorities want it taken, and by so doing will make possible the performance of the enormous task that has been so terrifying to those who looked forward to tt with the knowledge that it must ne done, however tremendous.COI.HENSHAW HEARD FROM.Lt.-Col.Fred Henshaw has heen heard from and all anxiety as to his safety has been dispelled.Col.Henshaw, who was spending the winter in California, was known to be in the neighborhood of Ban Francisco at the time of the disaster, and lack of news led his friends to imagine that ha voir might possibly have been killed or njured The telegram received in the city today was dated the 18th instant.the day of the earthquake, and was sent from a small town in the immediate neighborhood of the disaster.It is therefore probable that Col.Henshaw was there at the time.Word has been received by Mr.H.J.8.Lepage, of this city, that Mr.and Mrs.H.B.Rutledge.and their daughter Ruth, also Mra.T.Trennamen, are safe and well in San Franeisco.SOME MORE PUBLIC ACCOUNTS PROBED Bpecial to The Montreal Star.Ottawa, April 235\u2014Mr.Matthew Lodge, secretary of the Éasterm Supply

Water Supply.To the Editor of The Montreal Star.Siy\u2014! am a citizen of Westmount, likewise mn taxpayer.Until quite recently, I do not imagine the \u201cCivis Romanus' whose loyalty served -the Apostle Paul as a peg agen to hang a lesson had, or thought a, a \u2018more inexhaustible supply of menicipal enthusiasm.Among other things, I belleved honestly and sincerely in the good faith of our

their btcker- ing, lose sight of personal antagon- fams and act as public-spirited repra- sentatives of the people.Those ideas, alas, belong to the beautiful but dis- flilunioned past.It is A matter of common repute, or disrepute, that we have had troubles with our water supply and that the\u2019 present cause we thought they were capable of finding a remedy.That was what we expected and what we now demand, not an oné man's rampe but t he ad Juatment betweén th uttad ie company which would ve ou ble he the company and astisfactory to the citizéns.I am willing to accept Councillor Rogers\u2019

Unexplained.CORONER'S INQUEST ENDED It Was Claimed by One Engineer That There Wore Not Sufficient Bolts In Steel Work.\u201cWe, the undersigned jury.declare that Mary Louis.Ross died on April 3.1906, from a fracture of the skull, resulting from an accident at the store of Boivin, Wilson & Co.namely, the collapse of à water tank on the roof.It te impossible to say in a positive manner what was the cause of the accident, but we do not hesitate to say that there was nothing criminal in the said cause.\u201d This was the verdict rendered to-day by the jury investigating the death of Mary Louisa Ross in the collapse of the tank over the Boivin, Wilson & Co.'s buliding on St.Paul street.Several expert witnesses were heard today, but they could throw no absolutely positive evidence, though thelr views tended to show that the bolts in the steel structure might have been stronger with advantage.Several lawyers were present to watch the interests of the various parties concerned in the building, the tank and the family of the deceased William Hutchison, architect, was the first witness heard.He declared that from hls examination of the walls of the building he had concluded that to support a tank like that .prected there it would have been necessary to tear down from four to five feet off the top wall, and rebuild it In cement, the same width as the lower part of the wall, to serve as rests for the iron girders upon which the tank could be erected.He considered the building of this = upporting wall necessary for the support of such a tank.John L.Harrington, chief engineer of the Locomotive and Engine Company, which supplied the steel work to the Crescent Contracting Company, declared that the calculationg and plans were made In his office by his assiat- ant, Mr.Legrand.but the witness had nothing to do with them personally.SUPPORTS ALL RIGHT.Since the accident he had examined the supports, and found them all right; the steel was good and the rivets properly placed.He could not Ascertain the cause of the accident from the state of the walls after the accident, so that it was Impossible to say that the accident was due to weakness in the walls.The foreman who did the work had not reported any danger.but Mr.McMahon, who examined the building before the wrecking of the tank, declared that he had been informed by Mr.Wilson that the building was overloaded.This had been reported to the Crescent Company and to Mr.Vogel, who said that Mr.Hutchison reported the bullding would be strong enough if the proposed alterations were made The supports were supposed to carry fifty-six tons, while 12,- 000 lons weighed about fifty tons, and the tank weighed about three tons.As an engineer he declared that with the alterations proposed by Mr.Hutchison the stone walls were strong enough to carry the whole weight.Charles Gardner, manager of the Crascent Contracting Company téstl- fied that his company had sub-jet the contract for the steel support to the Locomotive and Machine Company.The steel was to run from wall to wall and the walls were to be strengthened.Three plers were erected on one side to carry the weight, as most of the tank structure rested on that side.As a practital engineer he could not say, after examination, what had caused the accident.The accident might have been caused by the shock of the sudden fall of the floor inside the bullding.NOT ENOUGH BOLTS.Henry Goldmark, consulting engineer, formerly with the Canadian Pacific Railway ,said he had examined the steel supports on April 6th, and several times since, and concluded that they were too weak in many places to carry fifty tons.Taking up the plans, he explained in detail his grounds.One of the members of the support had only two bolts and only one was likely to be in action at the one time.These bolts Ww loosely fitted in the sockets.load was not In excess of usual conditions, if the walls were good.He coticiuded by saying that no engineer knpwing his business would allow such a fMmistake as putting two bolts where four were needed, as in this case.James 8.Costighn, civil and mill engineer.&ccompanied Mr.Gold- mark on the several examinations and corroborated that gentleman's evidence.Lawrence McMahon, foreman for tha Locomotive and Machine Company, declared that in putting in the steel supports he had followed the instructions received, as to the erection.He presumed.that the calculations made by experts were correct.John L.Harrington, chief engineer of the Locomotive and Machine Company, was recalled and declared that on .examination some days after tha accident he had found the bolts In place in the members.By examining the debris It appeared to him that not the steel support but the walls had given way.- He Illustrated his view by a technical explanation.The plan was made by Legrand, in his ofe fice, and he vas Just looked over it, He admitted that it he had prepared the plans himself, he would have ad+ vised putting more than two bolls, Two bolts, however, he considered, were sufficient to support the weight to be borne, and after careful exam ination he had \u2018¢oma ta the conclusion that the baits had not falled.\u2018Coroner McMahon addressed the Jury for a few minutes and after del tng fot some tims, they rendered he verdiot quoted above.RAILWAY SCHOLARSHIPS.Examinations for or Canadian

race, and same was built sufficiently large to allow for the installation of two additional 5,000-h.-p.units when necessary.In the sub-station at Sao Paulo there was installed a new bank of transformers and a synchronous motor generator, working in connection with the fifth unit at Parnahyba.The high-tension switch gallery was extended te receive additional! panels.and the lightning arrester-house was enlarged to permit of a better arrangement of lightning arresters and automatie switches.A storage battery plant is now being erected of sufficient capacity te éperate our entire system in case of a shut-down.It Is expected the battery will be in operation by the 1st of May next.To meet the increased demand upon the servidte, it was found necessary to construct additions} track mileage of over 12,000 feet.A cross-town line was butit.making connections with four of the existing routes to enable them to run direct to the rallway station, and in addition there were constructed several minor extensions to enable the better npera- tion of various lines.The Company is strongly advised by ite resident Vice-President at Bae Paulo to immediately extend its lines to the adjoining suburbs of Pinheirqs and Balint Anna, rendered necessary by the rapid development of the city, which extensions, it is claimed.will prove very profitable to our tramway systems.There has been a gratifying increase in the Power Department.the year new contracts were made with 32 power customers, which contracts, with the ones previously existing.increased the motors installed to 336, and the h.-p.contracted for {0 4,076.or 24 per cent.over the previous year.This represents either new industries or additions to existing plants, and demonstrates that the manufacturing indusiries are prosperous, notwithstanding the fact that the vear was one of general agricultural depression.MAINTENANCE.Reports recelved from the General Manager at Sac Paulo dea) very exhaustively with the question of maintenance of the Company's property, all of which have received attention consistent with careful management.CONDITION OF THE CITY.Dr.Antonio Prado, who has been prefect af the city since the organisation of the Company.continues to hold that office, and during the past year great progress has been made in the realisation of his plan of general 1m- provement.In the centre of the city, streets are being widened, and many of the old bufldings substituted by fine new blocks.CONDITION OF THE COUNTRY.The remarkable appreciation in exchange was no doubt due largely te the foreign loans made to various State Governments for works of general improvement.The fact that these loans were obtained on terms that a few years before would not be considered by the bankers iz evidence that the general credit of the country has improved, and that the change is not merely attributable to an easier Money Market.The Government is devoting itself more than ever to the development ot the natural resources of the country.in which !t fa so rich, and In this connection is promoting the construction of railways and port works.During the present year work will be commenced on the construction of the port works of Para, Pernambuco, Bahia.Rio Grande do Sul, and several smaller ports.These are projected for the accommodation of the largest mo@arn ships, and should tribnite greatly towards the commercial conditions of these cities and surrounding country.Mr.Alexander Mackenzie, resident Vice-President at Sao Paulo, in his report to your Directors states that the number of representatives of European and Anierican pitalists seeking opportunities of Investment, is În- each your, and the Governments of the various Southern States are ustng every effort to promote Furopean immigration to their highly- favored and that there is no doubt their efforts will meet with success, and that we shall see in thenot very distant future the settlement of vast ateas now unocoupieë He further states that he has not the slightest fear During of serious trouble arising from revolts, and it is his firm conviction that property and life are Jost as safe in Sao Paulo as in any large American or European city, and enterprises can always count on the sympathy and protection of par = Government.\u2018 All Veuchers and Accounts for the year have Balance Bheet duly verified by Messrs, countents been audited.and the Clarkson and Ctoss, chartered ao- Respectfully submitted.\u2018WM.MACKENZIE, President.President's Remarks in Moving Adoption of Report.In reading and moving tha adoption of this, the Fifth Annual Report of the Company, it affords me much pleasure in calling your attention to the continued prosperous condition of the Company's affairs in Sao Paulo.As has been stated in the report, our increased revenue has not been without increased expenditure, but it should be remembered that a large portion of this increase in working expenses is accounted for by the enhanced value of Brazilian Currency, which also played so favorable a part in augmenting our gross earnings.The large expenditure on Capital Account, part of which was coramenced during 1904, but completed this year.was found neceseary in order to meet the increas! demands in all brariches of our system.The statistical tables to be found in the printed report will, I am sure, be interesting to all shareholders, and will give a Yery comprehensive review of and.development.I consider the report most satisfactory, in all respects, and have much pleasure In moving its adoption, seconded by Mr.Frederic Nicholls.STATISTICAL STATEMENT.; - ar.¢ o por « 1508 1908 » 208,175 \u201cLu, 558 408,748 ave 01,788 499,497 LX] $1.0 me 38,019 29,881 21,745 4.008 6,180 XY 18 181 » .70 188 wm contracted 4 2,207 1,68Ÿ ° etadiodiny \"3.20 \u2018taxes paid \u2018at Bao Paulo.INCOME: ACCOUNT.Net.jncome for the To after deducting oll \u201cox pénaes md fixed charges.0002,027.00 Appropriated as follows: \u2014 Four Qihorteriy Dividends .[TT ares sessomanesne0 ace sec 00 9500, 504 40 Surplus\u2014 .To Co Account .10c0000000 [TN crrraree 4 50,000 00 Profit and .mmscsa rerens ere er £18,082 5) LIABILITIES.Opal Stock subscribed, 97,500 00 fully Dividend No.15 .Contingent Asoount .Verified: CLARKEON & CROSS.Auditors.Cobalt Securities Company.Traders in Cobalt Stocks.Our man on the spot writes: \u201cTIM- MINS MINE last shipment of 30 tons of ore averaged $6000.00 per ton, equalling $180,000.\" FOSTER PEOPLE have 62 tons picked Hartshorne, Bogert & Battelle, Members New York Stock Exchange GUARDIAN BUILDING, MONTREAL NOR MAN BINMORE, Manager ore, 25 tons second grade ore ready for shipment.43 161 BUY FOSTER SHARES QUICKLY FOR A RIG RISE.\" - TT SILVER LEAF reports an astounding strike, We have an tive market both ways; no orders tod large aud nono too small for us to handie.Write or wire us what you want to sell or ®winh to bu SUITE 688, TEMPLE BUILDING, Montreal.LP.\"Phone.Min 2590 Diamond Vale Coal Will sell 42,000\u2019 shiares ®t 290, Foster Cobalt Mining Will give 8135 for 00 shares Colonial Investment & Loan WHI give 27.25 for 166 shares \u2014 |Dominion DeForest Wireless Ridding 82.50 for 100 shares.New York Curb Rtocks bought and sold.!

The devgation was composed of Messrs 5 U Shorey, Richard White, W.M.Ramsay, G, F C Smith, Henry Buïlmer and ©.J.Fleet Explaininx the situation, Mr.Shorey =ald Liat the cemetery proper belonged to ithe British authorities, the trustees of Lhe cemetery, however, had some eighty thousand feet of ian in the vicinity which it would hand over lo lhe city ail the usual assessed valuation.The land was assessed by the chy at 35 cents a foot, and to this should naturally be added the 20 per cent.additional, allowed by the city expropriation law.There was was besides the question of cost of removing the bodies and Mr Shorey estimated this would be $12,000.ae there were probably ten thousanl bodies in the cemetery, though 11 had not been used for fifty years.H was the opinion of the chairman that the cost of $12,000 for removing the bodies was very high.He thought the amount could be cut down to some $5,000.There was some discussion over the fact that the British Government had hitherto been much opposed to the cemetery being turned into a public square.Mr.Shorey said the British authorities might consent to the removal of the bodtes if a monument were erected on the spot.Aid.Laviolette moved that à report be made to Council recommending the expropriation of the land under the control of the trustees at the city's essessed value, plus twenty per «ent.and that the city pay the cost of removing the bodies from the ceme- oy re the amount did not ex- ce 7,000.This was unanimousi adopted.y PARK CANNOT BE LEASED.For some time past the Tuberculosis League has been trying to get a portion of Mount Royal Park.known as the Shakespeare property, on which to establish a camp tor the treatment of patients suffering from tuberculosis.The Finance Committee decided on Friday last that the land in question should be turned over to the company if it could be legally done.An opinion was asked from the city attomey on the matter.At the meeting of the Parks Committee yesterday, a report was read from the attorney statinæ that the city could not legally part with the land for the purpose in question.An objection was made to the establishment of the camps by Mr.J.Perron.He sald the fact had been do.monstrated vears ago that the Shake- Speare property.and Mount Royal Park were one.and that the city could nat part with any portion of the park for such purposes.He argued that the estate he represented would suffer, as it adinined the farm.In fact.he might Just as well devlare the city was ask- Ing the estate tn contribute $150.000 io the League for the Prevention of Tu- herrulnats.Ald.Dagenais said the fact was that the establishment of the shacks wonld nnt depreciate the value of property in the vicinity In view nf the npinian of the city at- tornev, it was then decided to nntifv the League as tn the nutcome of the matter Annual Meeting of Y.W.C.A.The Young Womens Christian As- saciation heid their thirty -ceeond annual meeting in the Y WC A Building Tuesday afternoon.Res beg in the \u2018hair The year's report of the several da- partments of the nunrk was read by the Secretary.Miss Tenney, who stated that the total associate membership was now 402;

has not been exagerated.It will never be appreciated except by those who have known the city, and who revisit It in these awful times.The heart of the city, every solitary sign of its commercial activity, the greater part of its finer residential district.acres of the homes of the poorer classes are absolutely blotted out.Every man and woman in the city of san Francisco to-day is subsisting on charity.The bread of charity 1s the only bread that can be got there.ALL LIVE ON CHARITY.At one of the parks this morning a handsomely dressed woman with two children at her skirts stoôd In a line of many hundreds where supplles were being given out.She took a fhiteh of uncooked bacon.and as she reached for it a glaam of jewels sparkled from her fingers.One of the tota took a cap of condensed milk, the other a bag of cakes.\u2018I have money,\u201d she sald to your correspondent, \u2018\u2019if I conld get tt and use it.I havé property.if 1 could realize on it.I have friends if 1 could get to them.Meanwhile T am going to cook this piece of bacon nn bricks and he happy.\u201d She was only one of thousands like her.In all my walk through the citv to-day, this note of cheerfulness of the people in the face of an almost incredible week of horror was to your correspondent the only mitigating element to the awfulness of the disaster\u2014the only ray that lightened the horrible gloom of the situation.A few details may serve to give some slight impression.PEOPLE STILL FLEEING.The clock on the ferry tower, as everyone notices, marks 5.16.The moment you step ashore, all is desolation as far as the eye can reach.Earthquake evidences are in sight at once, The cobble pavement just outside the depot has sunk and raised in undulating billows.The ferry approaches are packed with residents trying to get away, carrying their belongings in every conceivable way.The authorities want to get as many people as possible oul of the city as quickly as possible.The The Wornout Nerves, The Weak Heart, The Tired Brain, The Wasted Strength.\u201cWhat à multitude of women thers are , who feel that these words exactly suit their \" From early morn until late at night have been ou the go, qe in and to the ty duties, losking after the wants ef her children and spending the rest of her time attending te social and church work.Isis any wonder then that soener or later thers comes à general eollspee?The action of the hears beoomies weak and palpitatin the nerves become unstrung, the brain fes tn a whirl half the time and the usaal foros of vitality ie lacking.It is at this time a woman should look after herself.If she does not, serious female disorders may seb in and Kr cause weary months sad years of he ose and miserable suffering.What she wants fs something to build up ber system.this purpose is MILBURN\u2019S HEART AND NERVE PILLS are the women's friend in every railways give them free transportation for 500 miles.All day from dawn tu dark the strangest procession that any eliy ever say goes down Market street to the outlet.Every conveyance ls pressed into service and thousands are trudging on foot, carrying all thev own.Hero ls a man carrying a small girl on his shoulders and a baby In his arms.His wife pushes a baby carriage loaded down with all thelr earthly possessions.Here is a Chinese woman with an Invisible baby in a silken sock on her neck, and two little ones trudging behind her.Market street was quickly cleared of debris to make an outlet, and passages hive heen made through some of the other streets.Men are digging holes on Market street and placing poles for head trolleys to run cars.The Broadway of San Francisco.is stmply a Canyon between jagged ruins, a view of the more modern steel con- atructed buildings have walls and floor intact but all are gutted.The new elghteen story building at California and Kearney streets stands a shell.All that was left of the Grand Hotel iy enough of the walls to carry signs.SOME ENORMOUS RUINS.The famous Palace Is a sad ruin.The Orocker, the Flat Iron building, a new steel structure, is In a remarkable state of preservation.Yesterday the coal bunkers blazed in proximity of 2.000 gallons of oll.There was no water, but soldiers smothered the fire by heaping wet sand down the sidewalk opening to the basement.The Call building, the most prominent in the city stands a melancholy monument; cracks in the walls and with a declded tilt.The story is the same all the way up Market street.But it is the City Hall that is the acme of ruin.It is the most noticeable example of the devastation of the earthquake, and no San Franciscan can look at it without choking.The steel frame of the great tower upholds the dome surmounted by a statue, but three quarters of the brick tower has been stripped from the frame, leaving a bare portion.The walls are crushed and rent on all sides.The post office walls are cracked in places, but the building is otherwise intact.Lines of men and women are at every entrance, and clerks call out rapidly from the doorway the addresses un the letters.The Mint stands llke a beacon in a stormy sea, mas- slve and strong, absolutely undamaged, with Old Glory floating above it.26100000040:00004044000000 + + SAN FRANCISCO + + RELIEF FUND COM- + + PARED WITH OTHERS \u20ac e .e + San Francisco (to date).@ +.\u2026.\u2026 .\u2026,\u2026.320,000,000 + + Chicago Fire, 3871.\u2026 5.000,000 + \u20ac (Charleston Earthquake, 1886.@ Q i ee ee 650,000 @ + Jacksonville Yellow Fever + + Epidemic, 1888.515,000 \u20ac & Johnstown Flood, 1859.3,000,000 @ ® Galveston Flogd, 1900.1,600,000 @ $ Paterson Flood, 1902.100,000 ® + +++0400-00 400000000000 00 000 CUT WOMAN'S FINGER OFF TO GET RINGS.Colorado Springs, Col, April 25.\u2014 Passing through here yesterday In a Denver & Rio Grande train, bound for Chicago, where her parents reside, was a San Francisco fugitive, who sald her name was Miss Logan.She wore a bandage on her left hand and sald that while she lay unconscious upon the floor of the lobby of the St.Francis Hotel, in San Francisco, after the earthquake last Wednesday morn- Ing.the third finger of her left hand was cut off and she was robbed of rings that she had worn there.MANY SHOCKS RECURRED Special to The Montreal Star.New York, April 25.-After a night of terror, broken by frequent tremblings of the earth, thousands of San Fran- claco refugees, began a wild flight from the rity to-day.The renewed exodus overwhelmed the ferry and other transportation facilities.Many of those who rought escape declared they were going Inland as far as possible, believing that the Californian coast Is doomed tn destruction.Seventeen distinct earthquakes have been recorded since the big shock of yesterday morning.DOGS WERE FOUND EATING HUMAN BODIES.San Francisco, April 25\u2014One of the most gruesome 8cenes that has followed the fire was witnessed on Telegraph and Russian hills and along the entire north beach front of the ¢ity when scores of half-starved dogs were found eating human bodles.The animals were discovered gnawing gnd tearing at the corpses half burned \u2018in the ruins.An order has been issued to shoot all dogs.RAILWAY COMPANIES ARE NOT CHARGING.Chicago, April 25.\u2014Officlals of the Southern Pacific lines announce that cases of extreme destitution are being transported free of charge from Call- fornia points to New Orleans.General Passenge Agent Hoarsburg, of the Southern Pacific at Oakland pilier, Cal.advises that that mad has taken out of San Francisco 150,000, that 50,000 more are still encamped in Golden Gate Park, 25,000 at the Presidio, and 50,000 elsewhere.A) SINCE THE CATASTROPHE.| Ses > A _ = == ;
