are rs feet in length over all, 36-foot beam
and depth Of hold feet. her engines are
double high pressure, with cylinders 20
inches in diameter and 81 inch stroke. She
has four boilers ~ inches in diameter and
% feet in length. The paddle heel is Is
feet in diameter, Is feet long. with width of
paddle OF "a inches. By new arrangement
of the paddles it is expected that greater
speed can be attained than the Weber is
capable Of. The Suffer in the plan
OF her upper works is constructed
very much on the lines of her
consori, the freight deck. saloon deck
and the pilot house being arranged almost
identcaily, and TO ali inexperienced eye no
difference in the tw steamers is percepti-
bic. The builders, however, think that the
Suffer is at least two knots per hour faster
than the Weber, and are willing to back
her against any other steamer of her class
on the bay for speed. In the furnishings
the Suffer is to be an improvement on the
Weber, aud is to be lighted by electricity.
The new steamer will be ready for
traffic in about 10 days, and friends of the
competing lines from Stockt ton arc looking
for lively times ahead. They predict a very
active competition between the two and a
very great reduction in freight and passen-
ger rates. The total cost of the new
steamer exceeds $50, 600.

Protesting Club.


Protesting Club.
An important meeting of property-own-
ers in the neighborhood of Castro. Six
teenth and Seventeenth streets was held
last night at the Eureka Valley Hall for the
purpose of forming club TO aid The prop
erty-holders in protesting against the pro-
posed extension of Sixteenth and Seven
teenth streets.
J. Y. Ayers presided, and 1t was decided
after some discussion to retain the name OF
the Mission Property-owners' Protesting
Club for the new organization.
A very vigorous protest against the report
of the Street Commissioners has been signed
by $40 property-Owners, objecting to the
extension of the streets la question. The
report of the committee as to what had been
done since the last meeting was received.
1t was determined to fight the extension TO
the bitter end.
A discussion arose IS to the employment
of attorneys on the hearing OF the protest
against the Seventeenth -street extension
when the matter comes up before the Board
OF Supervisors. A committee was appointed
TO see Attorneys Reddy, Campbell aud Met
son, with two real-estate experts, thls

j. Mcnamara. the president OF the Seven

Club, was present and made vigorous
speech. IN which he described the action OF
Supervisor TabeT. who had begged him not
| TO protest against the SeYenteenth-Street
| extension saving that he would get II re-
| ferred back, as al any rate suspicious. he
| thought it looked as if the Board of Super
visOrs were standing In with tile Street
Commissioners and wealthy landowners
He appealed TO them to turn out at least
thousand strong at the meeting Of the Board
OF Supervisors and perhaps that might have
some effect
Another old resident, who had lived %
years In the eighboTh0od, denounced the
| action OF the landsharks. who proposed to
take away the hard-esrned savings of the
tOilers who bad worked hard for years to
| gain home.
Others supported the motion, one quoting
| JscksOn's memorable words as applicable
you can't take away our homes" These
men, he said, would steal the cross from an
ass back. By and by they would be
| taught bitter lesson by the citizens as they
| were being now taught in Pennsylvania.
! Loud cheering greeted the speaker as lie sal

The organization, on the motion of D.

at the coming election 10 support the pas

Million Dollars to Be Expendsd-What Is
Now Asked for the Old
Building.

The intention Of the Grand Lodge of the
Order of Free and Accepted Masons of
California TO erect temple to be devoted
exclusively to the purposes of the organi-
cation has been discussed for some years.
III. L. Graves, secretary of the Masonic
Temple Association, has frequently been
importuned to give the particulars of the
progress made, but until recently has al
ways replied that the condition and pros
poets of the undertaking hardly warranted
giving to the public the facts in his possess
sion. Mr.. Graves however. at the request
of a reporter stated yesterday that the fay-
orabe progress of the enterprise now justi-
fed his giving some particulars relative TO
the final erection of the temple as far as
present indications admitted.
1.-THE old temple at the corner OF Mont
gomery and Post Streets" said Graves, sis
admittedly too small. and has grown TO be
TOO far away from the residential district.
The space it occupies is also in greater and
increasing demand for business purposes.
and it has long been in contemplation to
remove to some more westerly location tina [
would be more accessible TO the members of
the order AM then erect a temple that
would be adequate for future wants and
commensurate with the wealth of tue order
which sustains It.

The Special Championship AFRO

on Pension Matters,
A Leading Grand Army Thus

Letter.
He Foreswears His Former Allegiance

land and stevenson.

NEW York, Oct. 10.-Chaitman Carter, of
the republican national committee. has re-
oeived more bad news. He has been hear
ing considerable of 1ate about the way i'll
which republicans have been joining the
ranks of the democracy, and when the news
came in that District Attorney William
Green, OF Fulton county, a oonspicu :
GUS Grand Army man. had come boldly on,
for Cleveland. Chairman Carter felt very
much annoyed. District Attorney Green is
now serving his second term. He was
elected as a republican. His home is IN
Gloversville. He served with great credit
in the war. and what he says about pension
matters must be gall and NORWOOD TO
Carter. MIR. Green has sent a letter to T.
F. Reed, secretary of the National Vet
erans' Tarif Reform league, in which, after
stating that he has voted for every repub-
iican president from lincoln down. he an
nounces that he n longer agree with
the party with which he has SO long atiil-
lated. He is opposed, he says, to both the
Mckinley tariff and the force bill. MIR.
Green SAYS at the close OF his letter:
"The republican politicians seek to put
MS veterans in a most hur,iliating position.
They assume, and scarcely take the trouble
to spread a decent veil over the assumption,
that they can bride with pensions. NOW,
surely no self-respecting veteran can accept
a pension as a gift. but only as a just right
amply earned. The whole people, ire
spective of party, are willing to deal not
only justly, but generously. with the veter-
ans, and the special championship AFRO
gated by republican politicians ia a trans
parent fraud. Indeed, the increased cost
Of living which the Mckinley tariff imposes
rests with special severity upon the shout
ders of our comrades. the vast majority OF
whom are poor men. with small and con-
stantly decreasing ability TO earn a llvell-
hood. Nor should it be forgotten that all
the pension laws. Of which republican poll
ticians boast. with one solitary exception,
(the law limiting attorneys fees in claims
for increase,) were dictated by claim
agents. IT. is a concise and perfectly cor
rect characterization of the whole pension
system that it was devised and nodded by
claim agents primarily in their own inter
ests, and enacted by politicians to catch
voters. The same expenditure of money
would have been infinitely more beneficial
to the veterans had congress honestly re-
Rarded their rights and interests, instead
of seeking mainly to placate those powers
which were supposed to influence or con-
troll their votes"
