SAN FRANCISCO BANKERS.
Omcers of German Savings and Loan
Association in Seattle.


L. Gottig, of San Francisco, president of
the German Savings and loan Association:
George Tourney, the secretary, and H. L,
Simon, one of the directors, are at the
Northern hotel with w. H. Knight, bank
commissioner of California. Mr.. Gottig
is one of the oldest residents of California,
whittier he went in 1851. Mr.. Knight is
also successful business man. The bank
in whose interest they visit the city is not
an old one, but it is the strongest in the
country, outside of New York city. 1t
now has funds amounting to $29, 0OO, 0Oo of
which about 81, 100000 has been invested
in Seattle. Mr.. Gottig and some of the
other officers of the band make a trip to
this state annually to look over the prop
erty in which they are interested.
The German Savings and Loan Associa-
ton is under the general supervision of
the bank commissioner of California. In
speaking of this matter Mr.. Gottig said
yesterday: 81 helped to draw the law for
the creation of a California bank commits
sioner and I was anxious for its passage.
1t would, in my opinion, be good thing
for this state and Oregon if their banks
were under an officer like our banking
commissioner. The good banks would
have nothing to fear.
"The money market is much easier than
it was year ago. Today there is plenty
of money to be had on good security"

Colonel Green's Latest Order.
Captain E. s. Ingraham said yesterday
that he took issue with those of Tacoma

the encampment was an actual necessity
this year.

Mayor Ronald Talks With Health Board
ON Cuttfug Down Expensea.

mayor Ronald Talks WIN Health Boofo
on Cutting Down Expenses.
Yesterday afternoon an informal confer
ence was held between Mayor Ut. Ronald
and DR.. F. A. Churchill, DR.. s. J. Holmes
and DR.. James Shannon, of the board of
health, upon the subject of curtailing the
expenses of conducting that department.
The talk was of harmonious nature. the
board expressing every desire to operate
its department at the lowest possible cost
to the city. The mayor intimated desire
for the official head of Health Officer
Sparkling.
The mayor suggested that the health
board could carry on its work with three
men instead of i've as at present. He sug-
gested the consolidation of the offices of
plumbing inspector and sewer inspector
and of those of market and sanitary in
spector. The board thought perhaps it
might be possible to combine the market
and sewer work in one mans hands, but
it was agreed that the entire matter would
be taken under advisement.
The board desired to know if Mr.. Rom
aid had any persons whom he desired to
appoint to positions in the health depart
ment.
In answer to this the mayor said no.
He desired the board to run its own affairs.
He had no wish to interfere in any way,
as he had enough on his hands. He, how
ever, said it was his opinion that the pres
emit health officer, DIR. G. H. 7. Sparling.
was distasteful both to Democrats and Re-
publicans. The meeting adjourned, good
feeling prevailing on both sides.
DR.. Sparkling was seen last night, and he
did not know Until told by a reporter of
the Posr-INTELLI6ENCER that such a con-
ference had taken place. He said that he
thought common official courtesy might
have dictated that he be invited to the
conference. He was in position to sup
plement the information of the board.
He said also that while Mayor Ronald
might constitute himself the mouth-piece
for the expression of Democratic opinion,
he did not know how he acquired that
right for Republicans. As matter of fact
he did not believe he was distasteful ex-
cept to those who wanted his position.

Sound With o Friend.

SOunu Win o FRIEND.
Joseph Driscoll. the San Juan rancher
who disappeared from Seattle last Monday
and was supposed to have been foully dealt
with, returned to the city yesterday morn
ing on the City of Kingston. He went di-
rect to the West street hotel where his wife
and children were stopping, and when in
formed that the police were looking for
his body, said he was at a loss to under
stand why his vacation had caused so
much excitement.
When asked who was the mysterious
stranger observed following him last Mon
day Mr. Driscoll replied: "Well, the truth
is met an old chum who was in school
with me In Salem over twenty-five years
ago. We took the steamer for Tacoma,
where | wanted to do some business. l
intended to return the next day, but went
a little further than I first intended and
landed in Olympia. When in Tacoma
sent my wife ticket for some jewelry,
thinking she might raise money if neces-
sary."
Mr.. Driscoll is much amused at the idea
of his being done away with and remarked
that he had been around little during his
life, and was able to take care of himself.

The Trust Maintaining PrIces-Output
at Bothell to Be Increased.
P. A. Woollev, of Woolley, who was in
the city yesterday, says that the North
western Shingle Association is holding its
ground by taking in nearly every new mill
as soon as 1t is built. He said to Posr-
INTELLIGENCE reporter:
About 90 per cent. of the mills are now in the
association. We have no forfeit to secure the
maintenance of prices, but when a manufact-
urer is forced to sell his product and can't get
the association price We take II at the price
offered him aud hold it for tine association price.
The price is high enough now to give a small
profit and the tendency is upwards. We sell
free on board at the point OF delivery, addin g
the freight to the list price on the basis OF q
fixed weight per LOCO. If a man can dry his
shingles to get them below the basis weight he
makes SO much more on them.
Representative George Bothell. of Both
ell, was in the city yesterday. He says
that his mill is cutting about $1,000 shin
giles day. but he will soon add machinery
which will give him an output of 125,000.
All his product is consigned under a
yearly contract to firm in Minneapolis.
Mr.. Bothell says the demand for Washing
ton cedar shingles is steadily growing.

A peculiar case of a man asking court
TO appoint guardian for himself appears
In the petition Thomas F. Kennedy filed
In the probate department of the superior
court. The petition sets out that Ken
nedy is 80 years of age and incapable of
looking after his own business. He is the
owner of IA acres of land valued at
10000 and some time ago he decided this
property to ]. w. Curry upon an agree
ment that the latter provide for him dur
ing the rest of his life. Curry failed to
carry out his part of the agreement, and
in suit brought for the purpose the deed
was cancelled by the court.
The old man felt that he was unequal to
the task of going through with law suit
or Of conducting his other business, and
not long since Henry l. Dearborn was ap-
pointed. He was excused from acting,
however, at his own request. and yester-
day John s. Brace was appointed guardian
