A substantial compliance with the

CREDlTABLE WORK.

One public building in San Francisco
has history of vicissitudes OF a certain
kind. but reproaeh cannot be cast upon
its builders as having been either dllatory
or extrayagant. This is the United States
Marine Hospital. 1t was actually COM
pleted in one year on expenditure within
the estimate. and as there was no one to
impeach for overcharging or scamping c
contracts there was no Investigation and
no feud of recrimination. The corner
stone was laid on the 7th of April, 1853.
and by the 18th of December of the same
year the building was finished. Yet the
structure was very large one for those
times. 1t is 1S2 feet long by 96 feet wide,
is four stories in height and had accom-
modatlon for from 500 20 700 patients, ac-
cording to emergency. That such struc-
ture, solid in materials, although plain in
style. should have been erected for $3.50, 900
speaks we'll for the moderation of contrac-
tors and the honesty of supervision in
those times. YET the cost of materials and
of labor must have been considerably
higher than at present. Years would
doubtless pass before building of this
magnitude could now he constructed, and
the cost would be trebled in all proba-
bility. The art of dilly-dallying and con-
fusing estimates has been studied to per-
fection to-day, and in spite OF ronclad
contracts, open bidding and the terrors of
Investigations and the law held over all
concerned, public buildings are no longer
erected at moderate outlay or with rea-
sOnable expedition

WHEN CONGRESS MEETs-WHAT?

The latest news from Washington is that
the President does not propose to take any
action to increase the gold reserve. The
treasury, it is added, will continue to pay
out gold until Congress meets and then let
Congress assume the responsibility. This
is the wisest and safest course the admin
istration can pursue. 1t is not in the
Government to continue the Government
on a gold basis without the cooperation
of Congress. The President should also
leave Congress free TO act. Nothing will
so tend to undermine the influence of the
President over the people as an attempt on
his part to influence legislation by the use
Of patronage. This is R point upon which
the people are sensitive. When Congress
meets the President will recommend cer-
tain measures. This done his duty in
that respect has been performed. II Con-
gress enacts other measures than those
recommended and thereby outlines a con-
fllcting policy the President has a consti-
tutional right to veto any measure that
does not command a two-thirds majority
in each house. This is as far as the Presi-
dent should be encouraged to go. He is
not so much wiser than the body of the
lawmakers that he should assume to force
them to adopt his conclusions. On so i'm
pOrtant question as the adoption of the
double standard or of adhering to the SIN
gle standard Congress should exercise all
the power the constitution gives IL.

THE Personal PROPERTY LIST.

The Assessor has found personal prop
erty to the amount of S69. 299. .42S an ex-
cess of SSS7.102 over last year. The
difference is not great, but it is on the
right side. A good many people were pre-
pared for decrease. As least the impress
sion has been quite general that the
capacity of money to earn mon ey had been
impaired. Of course it is we'll understood
that an Assessors valuation is not con-
elusive as to the market value OF either
real or personal property. Some Assessors
are sanguine. others conservative; some
are honest. others are not; some are in-
dustrious, others indolent. One Assessor
will have such a high appreciation of his
predecessor that he will accept his con.
clusions, while another guesses for himself.
The best of Assessors only find a small
percentage of personal property. In the
list of firms, persons. corporations and

THE WHEAT FURRY AT CHICAGO

Among other exciting incidents of the
Chicago Worlds Fair is a commercial and
financial furry. On Monday July wheat
sold down to 65B cents. price which. the
market reporters tell US, has not been
touched before since there was pit in the
Windy City. 1t is about equivalent to 80
cents or 50 cents on the farm, and would
correspond TO 105 cents per GENITAL here.
At this price there is no money in raising
wheat except on farms so large and so
level that the work can be done by ma
chinery.
One reason assigned for the drop is the
discovery that there is more wheat left
over from last years crop than was ex-
pected. But the real cause is the collapse
of the unsound speculation which has
ragged lately in the grain States, and has
now about run its course. Within two or
three years those States have been flooded
with wildcat banks; these have begun to
fail. having attracted enough deposits from
the public to make suspension profitable.
Again, in some States, grain-growers, de-
luded into the notion that the low price of
cereals has been caused by speculation on
the produce exchanges, have been form
ing companies and putting up elevators to
bLOlO 6ldlus ~ 10 SuCCcaoIul SUN cubcI-
priseS require large amounts of capital.
The capital has not been forthcoming, and
the more speculative Of the companies are
going TO the wall. One of them, which
closed its doors on Saturday, is said to
have had hundred elevators in Kansas.
There is hardly doubt, moreover, but the
diversion OF large sums of money from
ordinary business into the Worlds Fair
enterprise must have created. directly and
Indirectly, a volume of Indebtedness in
and about Chicago which was incon-
venient TO carry through tight money
market. Sources from which embarrassed
grain-dealers might have obtained relief
have been drained by the promoters of the
fair. For the time millions are locked up
in the show, and Chicago misses them.
There is no reason 10 apprehend that the
trouble will spread beyond the cradle in
which il arose. The rotten spots are all
confined to limited area-outside of the
river valleys and the shores of the lakes,
there is no fuel to feed a panic. New
York. Philadelphia, Cincinnati and San
Francisco are all sound as dollar. Here
the exchanges are normal, and though the

EXTRADITION.

The objections to the proposed extradi-
tion treaty with Russia are confined to the
clause which provides for the surrender of
any person who may attempt to take the
life of the Emperor or any member of his
family. OF course the contention is not
that the murder of an Emperor is a less
heinous offense than the murder of an
obscure person, out that the surrender of
political offenders may be required on the
ground that the movement in which they
were engaged was q more or less direct
attempt on the life Of the Emperor and his
family. But the article which provides
for the surrender provides also that when
it can be made to appear that extradition
is sought with view to try or punish the
person demanded for an offense of politi-
cal character the surrender snail not be
made. The object of the provision appar-
entity is to afford the Emperor the same
security against violence that his subjects
are invested with. In these days assas-
sination is not regarded as lawful
weapon. A political movement may con-
template a sacrifice of human life, but one
that proposes to overturn thrones by max
ing them dangerous to life is without the
pale of law. The security the country en-
terihg into an extradition treaty has is that
the demand must be tiled in the country To
which the person charged with crime has
fled. If the case does not clearly come
under the terms of the law the demand
need not be complied with.

POINTS OF RESEMBLA ANCE.

A contemporary is unable to see any
close resen blance between the Leon
Splitter case referred to in Mondays CALL
and cases that may arise under the CHI
nese exclusion act. The resemblance lies
in the fact that in both cases Govern
ment did something it had agreed not to
90. The Austrian Government expelled
an American citizen. and in so doing is
regarded certain provisions in a treaty be-
tween Austria and the United States. The
American Government excludes Chinese
who have under the treaty of 1880 a right
to go and come at will between China and
the United States. The defense in the
two cases Is Identical. Both Govern
ments admit the violation of treaty obliga-
tions, and both claim that the nation in the
exercise of powers essential to the preser-
walton of peace or TO the maintenance of
national conditions may expel residents
whom it deems Objectionable. In the case
OF Austria the maintenance of laws re-
quiring military service was at stake. Leon
Splitter, an Austrian subject, lived in
America long enough to become a citizen,
and then returned to Austria and claimed
exemption from military duty on the
ground that he was an American cit iZen.
Austria held that If subject was allowed
to shirk military duty by residence of a
few years in America the country would
soon be full of residents who had re-
nounced their allegiance and sworn fealty
to another Government. Austria claims
to be the judge whether residence

NECESSARY ARMAMENTS.

The st. Louis Republic, as might be ex-
pected, takes issue with Mr.. Herbert, Sec
retary of the Navy. in advocating policy
which would render the United States
strong at sea. 1t contends that he might
just as well urge that the country should
also be on war footing in its army dur
ing time of peace. Armaments place
liberty in jeopardy, and accustom a COUP
try to the processes under which despots
maintain their power, and any policy
which brings such contingency into pos
sibility in the United States is abhorrent
to the Democratic party. But there is no
suggestion TO augment the land forces. 1t
Is time enough to consider that PROPOSE
tion when it is mooted in practical shape.
Happily the United States has no need of
large army. Each State has its militia.
All that military men might like TO see
would be some organization to group the
militia Of different States together occa-
sionally for maneuvers. A considerab BILE
force might thus be brought into The field,
but the experiment would be expensive,
and the time is hardly ripe for il.
The case is otherwise with regard to a
navy. We need strong fleets, both in the
Atlantic and the Pacific. Our interests
are expanding all the world over, and
when the occasion arises to enforce rights
assaied or afford protection we must be
ready to act. 1t is unwiss during an
emergency requiring display of strength
TO rely upon latent power to proclaim our
ultimate ability TO carry what we want
through resources in money, material and
men. Wars are swift and summary to-day,
and the nation caught tagging is over
thrown. To be prepared fer war In order
TO avert it is policy respected by all the
strong countries OF Europe whose borders
are contiguous. Great Britain alone is
exempt from the maintenance of a large
army, but her navy is considered small

cannot remain weak on the seas. Much

expanded 10 great dimensions, and naval
ornaments must, within requisite bounds,
keep pace with the development. Mr..
Herbert may fall foul of Democratic prin-
ciples in his course, but he should be en-
couraged to persevere with a well-consid-

The Opposition Ferry Prosper

The Kussiloff of Kodiak is not an ocean
steamer nor is she even entitled to the
appellation of "deep-sea" vessel.
But the Kussiloff is going to venture up
the coast and perhaps as far as the Bering
Sea, for, though she Is small, she is ambi-
tious.
The Kussiloff is 30-foot schooner, not
much larger than good-sized lifeboat,
owned by two Russian traders whose
names could not be learned, as no man on
the front is capable of remembering them
over twenty-four hours.
The queer little craft has cabin large
enough to accommodate two men and
galley which may possibly be able to
spare room for pot of pea-soup besides
the stove.
There is room enough beneath the main
hatch to store away provisions enough for
two men for six months, and when these
are in the vessel will try her hand at
sealing.
For some time past the little schooner
has been lying in Oakland Creek, and was
only brought ever to MissiOn-street wharf

THE GAME SEASON
Can 1t Be Altered by the
Supervisors ?
Some Lawmakers Think So, as They
Have Changed the Dove
Season.

An article which appeared in THE CALL
OF last Sunday in reference to the game
laws and the opinions of some of the lead
ing attorneys as to the power of the Super
vlsors of the different counties of this
State to change the opening and closing of
the seasons to suit their respective locali-
ties. caused much discussion among sports
men.
Yesterday the Board OF Fish and Game
Commissioners received notification from
the Supervisors of Contra Costa County
stating that they had changed the open
season for doves so that they can be
shot on June 10. The State laws read
Every person who in the State of Cali
fornia. between the first day of March and
the first day of August in each year
shall hunt, pursue. take, kill or destroy.
or have in his possession doves, shall be
guilty of misdemeanor."
Now. then, if the Supervisors of Cont ira
Costa County have the power to change
the law relative to game birds and ami
mails, 1t is TO be presumed that the Super
visOrs of other counties will follow in
their footsteps and alter the State law to
suit their respective localities; but should
the lawmakers of Alameda County. for
instance, make 10 change in the State
law, the question is asked: lila sportsman
who had shot dove in Contra Costa
County after June 10 happened into Ala
media County With the birds in his posses
sion. is he amenable to arrest and impris-
onment?
The Game Commissioners have received
several letters from sportsmeu. who are
very desirous that changes should be made
in the open seasons Tor deer and quail
shooting-that is in the coast counties.
The Commissioners attorney, T. 7.
Deering, said to a CALL representative
yesterday that he believed the Supervisors
of the various counties had the power to
change the State game law for the better
protection of game, and that they can reg
ulate the opening and closing of the sea-
son for game birds and apimalS only.
Attorney-General Hart will be consulted
in this particular, and If his opinion CO.
incides with that of Mr.. Deering the Su-
pervisOrs of the different counties of the
State will be notified Immediately.
The present game law is not by any
means pleasing to the sportsmen who re-
side in coast counties, that is, so far as the
open seasons for deer and quail shooting
are concerned, and should the Attorney
General decide that the Supervisors can
regulate the opening and closing of the
seasons the news will be welcomely re-
ceived by all lovers of the chase.
The Commissioners have notified the
sawmill and box-factorv companies of the
Truckee River that unless they desist
dumping sawdust and deleterious matter
into that stream action Will be taken
against them immad lately for violation
of the fish laws.
