OFFICIAL REPORTS
WASHINGTON. July 1.-THE Marine
hospital bureau is receiving reports of
the progress of the yellow fever, cholera
and smallpox epidemics progressing in
various parts of the world. While these
show a heavy mortality for the hot
months, the ravages are not such as to
cause fear so far as this country is con-
cerned. The last reports from Cuba show
that smallpox is proving more deadly
than yellow fever
The fever is epidemic at the seaport
towns. where the Spanish troops are
garrisoned. but the smallpox is viru-
lent throughout the entire interior. \
recent letter from DR.. Caminero, United
States sanitary inspector at Santiago
de Cuba. says there are two thousand
cases in that province which has 5000
population. Dr. Caminero says:
"There are tenement houses which con-
tain as many as twenty-seven cases.
Yellow fever has decreased somewhat
but will again commence its deadly mis-
nounced as coming begin to arrive.

THE ROAD IS WORTH TWELVE MILLIONS

Mr.. Hellman had made the investigations
on behalf or the syndicate, and his word
was taken as to the value of the bonds.
Mr.. Freidenrich asked if the net earn
lngs OF the company were 81 900, 600 per
annum, the interest account $615, 900 and
the sinking fund $4,000 would the net
earnings of $1,0O0,000 be sufficient to
operate the road. The witness replied
that it would.
But" asked Mr. Freidenrich with a
triumphant leer at Mr.. Clunie, eff, in ad-
dition, the road was obliged to pay
$240, coo taxes, then there would be def
cheney, wouldn't there?''
"Not at all" replied the witness. "You
have 81 100000 net earnings, and that is
the excess over taxes and other expenses. 4"
Mr.. Freidenrich was equal to the occa-
sion and asked what would be the case if
the taxes were added to the interest and
sinking fund account and taken out of the
81, 900, 000 and the witness replied that of
course the sum would be $4,000 less.
This mathematical revelation greatly
instructed the audience.
Thomas Brown of the Bank of California
said that the Market-street Railway Com
pany was paying its stockholders a diyi-
dend of "a per cent, with the stock sell
ing at present at from $44 TO $45 per share.
Assuming that the property were assessed
at $12, 900 this rate Of dividends would

about SIC, 0,000,00 or s11 ,00ooC0
The witness was president of the Fer
ries and Cliff House road before the con-
solidation. At that time the road was
running behind about $1,000 per month.
1t never paid a dividend to its stock
holders, and its entire bonded indebted
ness was 81, 700 900. The cost to build the
road ten years ago was $l,900,000.
Mr.. Adams stock of knowledge as to
railroad matters was very limited. For
instance, he was not aware that such a
road as the Ocean Beach road existed.
Most of the roads that he knew were in
dilapidated condition. The witness did
not think he had figured on the franchise
as part of the value.
Mr.. Freidenrich tried to break down the
evidence of the witness by asking him to
give in detail his estimate Of the value of
the particular roads which were taken
into the combine. The witness could not
do this, but he was positive that the
Market-street system at the time of the
consolidation was worth 100000 or
s11, 100000.
The witness thought that the entire
Market-street system could be duplicated
for less than 81, 7,OO00 but he was not
railroad builder and not an expert.
In reply to Mr. Freidenrich as to why he
had placed the value at $10, 100000 or SILL
100000 when it could be duplicated for
100000, Mr.. Adams replied that he must
have made miscalculation.
When the witness was turned over to
Mr.. Clunie be admitted that he was not
sure whether it would cost $1,000, 600 or
$4,000, 900 to reconstruct the road.
In the next breath the witness said that
be thought the road could be replaced for
less than 81, 600, 900.
How much less?" was asked.
81 don't know"
Mr.. Adams yielded to the corkscrew
again and said that So, 500, 900 of the bonds
had beer expended on the system since
the 1st of March, 1895. and that the road
was that much more valuable.
Richard O'Brien, clerk in the Tax Col
lector's office, read list of the personal
property assessment of the Market-street
Cable Railway Company. The total was
$1,O27,572 and for the franchise $1.654 $50.
The case will be resumed at 10 o'clock
this morning.
