folks. Society has pronounced boomers
fashionable, and they therefore must be all
right.
The 1895 bloomer, which has been favor
ably passed upon by Oakland 400, does
not differ materially from those worn last
year. The material largely used is navy
blue serge, or heavy wooden goods of light
color. Stockings, plain or striped, match
the trousers, which are made trihe more
baggy this season than last. There has
been no changein the jackets.
During the past year bold attempt was
made by severalof the leading lady cyclists
to introduce the divided skirt. The effort,
though commended by all, fell..through,
and il remained for the society young
ladies to take the matter in charge and
carry it to completion,
Five hundred or more young ladies of
the very best families have by their actions
said that boomers are to be "a go" this
year in Oakland. There is to be no more
riding into the country and there discard

about after dark in boomers and reveling
in the recollections of sweet stolen rides,

clared their intention OF donning the
boomers for the first time this year and of

ONCE MORE HHE BAWNMORE
THE OFFICIAL MEASURER WOULD
NOT VENTURE INTO HER
OIL-TANKS.
A RATHER STORMY CONFERENCE IN
THE CUSTOM HOUSE
FOLLOWED.

The British steamer Bawnmore was the
cause of a very lively debate in the Gus
tom-house yesterday. Captain Alexander
Woodside wanted to clear his vessel, but
Collector Wise would not issue her papers
until the vessels carrying capacity had
been ascertained beyond doubt. An ad
valorem rate of duty has to be paid on
every ton of liquid bitumen brought into
port and since the Bawnmore has been
running between here and Payta, Peru the
Government has been unable to discover
her exact carrying capacity. In conse-
quence every time the steamer has reached
port her charterers have paid the duty on
what the invoice called for under protest.
Yesterday they asked for reduction and
the trouble began.
Chauncey M. St. John, the United States
official measurer of vessels, was sent out to
take the Bawnmore' S dimensions, but when
he reached the vessel and found that there
was still considerable oil on board he re-

Franklin school Charity Dax.

The boys and girls of the Franklin Grammar
School made large donations to the hungry
poor OF this city yesterday. Long before the
time for calling school, they came trooping in
loaded with potatoes, -four, coal, meat, tea,
coffee, sugar and other groceries in large guam
titles and great variety. The pupils were de-
lighted to be able to administer to the wants of
their neighbors.
Besides relieving the wants of twelve needy
families in the immediate vicinity. the school
sent two large express loads of groceries and
$l6 in money to lthe Salvation Army to be
distributed where il will do the most good.
The collections were received and distrib uted
without the least friction, which reflects the
greatest credit upon the children and teachers
OF the Franklin Grammar School.

OAKLAND AGENTS WEAKEN
THEY SEND A COMMITTEE TO LOCAL
INSURANCE MANAGERS FOR
RELIEF.
WANT A COMBINE ON RATES-SOME
OF THE BIG MEN MEET
AT DINNER.

A committee of three insurance agents
came from Oakland yesterday on mission
from the Oakland Board of Underwriters
It was composed of H. S. Gordon, Alameda
County agent for the North British and
Mercantile and the Home Mutual Com
pany, and Messrs. Fenton and Martin,
who represent several companies across
the bay.
The object of their visit was to confer
with all the local insurance managers,
urge them to come to an agreement on
rates in Oakland and Alameda County
That is, they wanted every company to
compel its Oakland agent to combine on
rates. They were successful in every in
stance excepting with two managers not
in the pact-Magill of the Phoenix
and Home companies and Duyal of the
Continental.
1t was not cheering news for insurance
men that they had to tell. According to
their story business in insuring propery
against fire across the bay is in woful
condition from the prevailing bitterness in
fighting. The Oakland committee Will re-
turn Monday and endeavor to patch up a
truce somehow.
From merry war to peace party of in
surance men turned Thursday night,
though their agility had no business
significance. Henry Evans, vice president
of the Continental Company of New York,
who has been here several weeks
in connection with his company's fight
against the Board of Fire Underwriters,
gave dinner at the University Club to
some men with whom he was brought into
contact, socially as well as in business
The dinner was given to show his appre-
citation of social courtesies extended to him
during his visit to San Francisco, and it
proved to be most enjoyable one. Those
present were: II. Evans, Hugh Craig, W.
J. W. Smith, George E. Kline, WIS. Duval,
Fred Lopez, R. P. Schwerin and ID. NJ.
Delmas.
There was no formal speaking, but there
was enough evidence of good fellowship to
show that no matter how the managers
may be divided on matters of business
they are still on' very friendly terms per-
sonally.

She Died ON THE STREET
THE MYSTERY OF MRS. BENYA-
KAR'S DISAPPEARANCE IS
CLEARED UP.
SUPPOSED TO HAVE SUCcUMBED TO
AN ATTACK OF HEART
FAILURE.

a very sad affair was yesterday brought
to the attention of some prominent He
brews in this city through the medium of
I. Benyakar an Egyptian curio merchant
of this city.
Mr.. Benyakar came to San Francisco
about eighteen months ago from the
Worlds Fair. He was an exhibitor at the
Midwinter Exposition, and at its close de-
cided to open store and locate perma-
nently in this city. He prospered, and
little by little he brought out members of
his family who lived in Egypt.
Among his other relatives there came to
him his aged mother, who was in failing
health and who, it was thought, might be
benefited by the bracing climate of Cali
fornia.
Last Saturday afternoon Mrs. Benyakar
left the home OF her son on Polk street,
saying that she was going to visit friends.
Nothing more was heard of her and after
the lapse of several days her son communi-
Gated with the city authorities, asking their
aid. Diligent search revealed the fact that
she had died and had been buried in the
potters' field, after lying at the Morgue
several days awaiting Identification.
The manner of the death of the unfor-
tunate lady can only be matter of sur
mise. 1t is thought that while paying her
round of visits she was seized with heart
failure and so expired. Nobody appearing
to claim the body she was buried in the
potters' field.
Immediately upon ascertaining the facts
of the case Rabbi Jacob Voorsanger OBJ
tanned permission to have the body disin-
tered, and yesterday it was taken to the
Home of Peace Cemetery of the Congrega-
ton EMANUEL, where the funeral rites of
the Jewish church were performed.
Mr.. Benyakar was absent from his place
of business last night, and one of his
friends explained that he was "sitting

In explanation of his inability to meas

a floating tank and very difficult vessel

only used for fuel on the steamer 1t was

that the invoice of the last cargo called for
1900 tons, but in reality only 1886 had been

charge duty on the larger quantity.

lector, on plan of the ship, the places in
which the oil was carried. He explained

Heirs of the Heydenfeldt Estate Escape
From Mortgage.
The Superior Court has decided that the
estate OF Solomon o. Heydenfeldt must pay
the mortgage upon the property which he
left to his son, Thomas o. Heydenfeldt,
and his daughter, Mrs. leila Hellings. In
SO doing it has reversed the decision of
Judge Coffey, which ordered the two lega-
tees mentioned to pay the mortgage them
selves.
Solomon Heydenfeldt left an estate
worth about 100000. To Thomas o. Hey
denfeldt and Mrs. Hellings he left real
estate valued at $1,000, but upon this
was mortgage held by the German Saw
ings and Loan Society for 10000. This
mortgage the executors refused to pay, on
the ground that there was nothing to indi-
cate that the general estate should pay the
mortgage. Judge Coffey supported them
in this position, but the Superior Court has
decided that the testator intended to leave
the property unincumbered, and the exec
utors are therefore ordered to pay off the
mortgage from the general estate
