MISSION TO MARKET.
PrOperty-OWners Will Oppose the
Extension.

Frank Sullivan and Daniel Callaghan APP
peared before the Street Committee of the
Board Of Supervisors yesterday to protest
against the extension OF Mission street
through to Market on a parallel line with
Valencia.
They urged that they represented 1900
feet Of frontage, and the property-Owners
for whom they spoke are very much OPP
posed TO any such scheme. They asked to
have consideration of the matter postponed
till the 25th inst, at 2 O'clock. Meanwhile,
a mass-meetiBg Of the interested property
owners will be held and the subject thor
oughly aired. The gentlemen added that
the scheme Of an elevated railway on Mis-
sion street is likewise opposed by the prop
eTty-ONncTs, and that, too, would be dis
cussed at the mass-meeting.
Chairman Taber replied that the applica-
ton for a franchise had been laid over
thirty days, but intimated incidentally that
the citizens need not he worried about it.
The MissioH-street extension scheme was
lad over two we ks.
Upon the petition Of the SOnth San Fran
cisco Improvement Club the Superintendent
of Streets was instructed 10 remove OBJ
strucLOns from l street south, between
TWenly-elghth and Thirty avenues
south
In relation to Tay street, concerning
HHiCu luSIe IS question as To WB6INer "
is an open public thOrOughfaTe, from Clay TO
Sacramento, between Mason and Powell
streets, a comm unicatiOn was received from
City and County Attorney burst stating
that he had personally examined into Tie
matter and failed to find any dedication on
record, by map. deed or otherwise la his
opinion the city could make no claim to the
property. Il. a. Denicke. who is building a
row OF flats across the alleged street, petit
toned to have it eXpunged from the map
and the board will be advised to grant it.
The communication from the Superin-
tendent Of Streets in relation to many of
the downtown sewers having settled from
six inches to three and Il half feet below
their present outlet was considered at
length, but final recommendation deferred
for one week.
Deputy Edward Owens explained the sit
uatiOn OF the sewers in detail, and suggested
that before they could be repaired or re-
built careful examination by the City
Engineer would be necessary, so as to have
a basis Of calculation upon which to esli-
mate the cost. 1t was minated that pro-
visions would be made for the work In the
next fiscal wear.

as more valuable for fertiizing purposes
than the Colorado or even the Missouri.
They probably reach this conclusion by ar
guiDg that if the waters Of the Snake could
be turned to account, State half as large
as California, and which. under present cir
cumstances, seems unlikely to increase very
rapidly its present population of $1,000,
could be converted into highly productive
agricultural region. They are doubtless
right in their estimate of the consequences
of a complete system of irrigation in Idaho.
But that system will hardly be undertaken
without further study of the physical
geography of the State. 1t would not be
worth while to spend millions to hoist water
200 OF 500 feet III order to see 1t penetrate
back through the porous soil to the level it
came from. Mr.. Newell gives estimates Of
the cost of irrigation in Idaho. he figures
that of the GOA farms in that State 1923 are
irrigated at an original cost of 81 "a per
acre for water. But he adds that the
bitches often run dry in summer.

ONE SIDE THROUGH.
Prosecution in the Curtis Murder
Trial Closed.
The Proceedings Adjourned Until Monday
Next-A Witness That Was Too Ill
TO Appear in Court.

Yesterday, the eleventh day of the trial OF
NJ B. Curtis for the murder of Police Off
Ger Alexander Grant, saw the close of the
case for the prosecution.
The District Attorney said he had another
witness, Mrs. If. Johnson of SAC Folsom
street, who was too i'll to come to court. He
wanted the Judge and jury to adjourn to the
sickchamber to hear her testimony, but this
proposal was successfully resisted by coun-
sci for defense.
J. n. E. Wilson, on behalf OF Curtis,
stated that the conclusion of the case for
the prosecution was in the nature of a sur
prise to the defense and it was not at that
time prepared to put witnesses on the stand
The witness Jeraleman, whose testimony
was very important to Curtis they had not
been able to find a day or two was de-
sired in which TO seek him. AS Judge
Trout had to sit in the Sidney Bell case to-
day Mr.. Wilson asked for an adjournment
until 10 O'Clock on Monday aha he was ac-
cOmmOdated.
The proceedings Yesterday did not last
quite an hour. Dr. Williams was called by
the District Attorney TO testify whether
there were any wounds found on Curtis at
the time he was arrested. The court sus-
tanned the objection Of the defense to testi-
mony Of this character at this stage ana Dr.
Williams was excused.
William E. Rail, a clerk in the police Of
fee, identified certain records in the case
and stated also that he never knew. any
other officer on the force named Grant ex-
cept the deceased
DR.. Joseph BluXOme, who made the physi-
cal examination of Alexander Grant at the
time lie was 9n applicant for appointment,
was called to testify to his height. The GER
tincate, signed by the doctor, was offered in
evidence. but rejected by the court because
not sufficiently identified with the deceased
as Dr. BuXome could only say that the per-
son who applied to him for examination only
represented himself to he Alexander Grant
Deputy Coroner Philip f. Allen testified
that he found pistol and club on the body
of the deceased. The hammer of the pistol
was resting on an empty chamber. The
other chamhPrS were lnaIed.

PACIFIC ENDOWMENT.
More Staggering Calculations by
Expert Gould.

w. 0. Gould. actuary of the Pacific Mu-
tual Insurance Company, was continued on
the witness-stand nearly all day yesterday
during the hearing of the Pacific Endow-
ment League squabble.
In addition to the figures produced on the
previous day. he showed that in 1898 there
would be S671,777 due on 922 coupons, and
that to meet this obligation on the basis Of
the present membership each member
would have to pay in S729. Calculating on
the same basis, the assessments for 1894
would be 1927, a dScOuraging endowment
scheme, in view of the fact that the coupon
Yields but $780,
On cross-examinatiOn Of this witness, At
tOrney Deuprey elected the information that
he is employed as an expert tG examine the
leagues system by eX-Judge benson and
Attorney Dorm. on behalf Of the Safe De-
post Company.
Isn't it a fact" asked Mr.. Deuprey,
shat your company and all the Old-lne In
surance companies are opposed to the en-
terDrising methods Of the new companies
like the Endowment LeagueP"
I'VE are opposed, he replied, 'tO doing
business on anything but business princi-
pies"
For aught the spectator can discover, the
case is still good for another week or two
of WraDgliug.

THE OPINION Is GENERAL.

We copy the following paragraph from a
report Of what is being done by our Traffic
Associations
i member of the association, who has given
the subi-cl OF CALIFORNIA; a. tarded development
careful study said: II know from personal in
qures and from what has been told me y0lun-
tarily that throughout the United S;aes The
impression exists that California is railroad
ridden I know that there is "a widespread con-
YictjOn throughout the country that % avails Tie
producer To California comparatively little IN net
earnings, no matter what the gross earnings may
be that he can raise larger and more valuable
crops than he can elsewhere Tie knowledge
that the railroads take the lions share Of the
producers earnings. thar, IN fact, tie roads
intend 20 charge aud do charge all that lie
traffic will bear, leads 30 this conviction and il
is commonly said that unit. This is changed there
Is comparatively little advantage ~ settling IN
Central California. There Is only one way 70
correct this impression, which is 10 secure living
rates and let The whole country know that such
rates have been secured. 1 am willing 10 wager
that trausc0utineutal road viii come IN here 10
compete with tie Southern Pacific within the
next two years. Ny reasons are these: Tie
field is inviting, because there IS enough busl-
ness here to support two transc0HtiueDtal roads.
There is q continual pressure by The suOOEdin-
ates in several roads upon their principals 10
Induce them 10 come here, ana has been Tor some
time. The money market is steadily improving,
and that encourages speculation. The favorable
time for building, Ia 4 word, Is here"
The opinion as expressed above is almost
universal in California. 1t takes nearly all
that farmers can make to transport many Of
their products 70 market We have Railroad
Commissioners in this State, it is true, but
Of what use are they to the public so long as
the companies can secure their nomination
and election? For several years past the
Southern Pacific Railroad managers have
been able to secure the nomination of such
Commissioners as they desired, through
boss management OF both political parties.
