You called five times on Mr.. TObin but

sUNNYsIDE AVENUE.
Property Owners and Residents Com
plain of Their Being Hemmed
In by Unopened Streets.

Property owners and residents Of Sun
nyside, in addition TO the other local and
necessary improvements asked by them
for their district will urge the extension
of Sunnyside avenue from it's present ter
mination to the Ingleside racetrack
where it would join Dewey avenue. The
direct line of this thoroughfare would run
through a portion of the Sutro lands lying
between the two given points. On the
southern end of this avenue there is only
a short section leading from the Southern
Pacific Railroad crossing to Islais avenue
to be connected with the Mission road. As
it is now the Sunnyside people are
hemmed in on both sides, with no way of
getting out except by Chenery street.
Heretofore this avenue of reaching their
homes from the business portion of the
city was all right in its way but since
the San Francisco and San Mateo Rail-
road Company has put down a double car
track it leaves the roadway crowded, be-
sides there is no way of reaching Mission
street without loss of time in getting
round by Randall street.
To obviate this the Sunnysde Improve
ment Club will urge the Supervisors to
open Sunnyside avenue from Mission road
to Dewey avenue at as early a period as
the funds of the treasury will justify, and
in addition place a bridge over the rail-
road track at Thirty-fourth and Miguel
streets
The necessity of a school building in this
portion of the outlying district has been
forcibly presented to both the School Di-
rectors and the Board of Supervisors by
special committee appointed by the club
for that purpose. The people also want
electric lights and protection against fire.
At present insurance companies will take
no risks in that portion of the city. A
fire once started means the total deStruc-
ton of the property attacked. The peo-
pie also want some attention bestowed on
the water question and the grading and
sidewalking of the streets within the dis

sixty last October. This in reply to Com
missioner Gunst, who said he had been
given TO understand that number of
places had been opened recently. The
Chief acknowledged that he was in ignor-
ance as 10 the proof against Price-he did
not know what Price had done or what
he had not done.
Gunst intimated that if Lees had gone

trolmen and to firemen and special Off
GERS he might have had something tangi-
bic to present to the board and not a lot
or statistics which were not material to
the investigation.
During the discussion the fact devel-
yeloped that the Commissioners had or
d d Lieutenant Price removed from
Chinatown on the ground that it was
preJudicial to discipline to retain him in
view OF the charges which had been
made. Chief Lees said he had not en-
deavored to keep Price in Chinatown that
any night he had made was in defense of
the department as a whole. knowing what
powerful influence had been at work on
previous occasions TO have honorable men
removed from the Chinatown squad
Commissioner Tobin said:
LAS l remember 1t we thought it the
proper thing to remove Lieutenant Price
from Chinatown. Chief Lees said at the
time 1t was hard to get a suitable man
for the place. He is there pending the
selection of some man to fill the place"
Chief Lees explained that he had called
on Commissioner Tobin five times to con-

WHAT STATISTICS
HAVE PROVEN!
What Medical Science Has Accomplished
THIS GREAT DISCOVERY is OFFERED FREE
TO "CALLo READERS

Statistics prove that more people are
brought to the grave by diseases of the
kidneys and bladder than by any other
disease
Kidney trouble is in itself so insidious
and deceptive that thousands have
some form of it and never suspect it.
For many years medical science has
been trying to discover some remedy
that would positively overcome these
dangerous troubles.
But not until recently was the dis
covery made Dr. Kilmer, the eminent
physician and scientist, after years of
study and research. and after test on
test that never varied in the grand
result, announced the discovery of
Swamp Root, which has proven itself
a most wonderful cure for all diseases
of the kidneys and bladder.
While Swamp-Root has proved such
remarkable success in curing kidney
and bladder diseases. it has also proved
equally invaluable in the cure of blood
diseases, rheumatism, liver and stom-
ach troubles and in the regulation and
cure of all uric acid troubles.
Swamp Root has been tested in so
many ways, in hospital work, in private
practice. among the helpless, too poor
to purchase relief, and has proved so
successful in every case that a special
arrangement has been made by which
all readers of the Call who have not
already tried 1t, may have a free sam
pie bottle of Swamp Root and thus test
for themselves it's wonderful curative
properties.
If you will send your name and full
address to DR.. Kilmer & Co., Bling
hamton. N. Y, sample bottle will be
sent, absolutely free by mail, postpaid,
also book telling more about Swamp
Root and containing some of the thou
sands upon thousands of testimonial
letters received from people who owe
their good health, in fact, their very
lives, to the wonderful curative prop
critics of Swamp Root
This great modern discovery is for
sale at most drugstores in f1fty-cent
and one-dollar sizes Don't make any
mistake, but make note of the name

but there are insinuations that corrup-
tion fund has been raised and that men
charged with suppressing gambling and
other vices are either incompetent or

Chief Lees presented a mass of statis-
tics covering a number Of years, all in

the police are confronted in their efforts

which is famed all over the world. Com
missioners Tobin and Gunst tried repeat
edly to pin him down to statements re-
garding the present time. To this he made
reply that the board would see the rele-
vancy Of ali his evidence when he finished
the presentation Of his case.
His argument was, in effect, that while
an immense corruption fund has been
raised for years in Chinatown. it was paid

societies and other organizations of high
binders who levy tribute on Chinese mer-
chants To show where some Of this
money went he read from statistics,
which indicated that during the period
Lieutenant Price was in Chinatown the
gamblers supplied bail money in the
courts amounting 20 SI7S4O while the
opium smokers contributed an additional
$1,000. The gambling, he said, was carried
on by corporations, shares in which were
sold. The principal shareholders take
care Of all persons arrested in their
houses. supplying their bail money, hiring
lawyers to defend them and finally pay
ing their fines if they are convicted.
Chief Lees affirmed that gambling had
not increased since Lieutenant Price was
placed in charge of the Chinatown squad.

 In all probability the bill to restore the old, very old, system by which men were imprisoned for debt, will not be- come a law at this session of the legisIa- ture. Itwas reported unfavorably by the judiciary committee and was tabled in the House. But 1t seems to have dropped out of sight. It is apparently not on the table. but perhaps is under the table somewhere. The bill had some rather queer provisions. By its terms, if man owes you bill and you can't collect it by any of the means now existing, you can get clerk of the court or justice of the peace to sum- mon the delinquent debtor and make him own up how much he earns and how much it necessarily costs him to live. Then the court would fix upon a sum for the debtor to pay down or by installments, and then if the debtor didn't come to time he could be put in jail for not longer than 14 days. It is said that some associations of mer- chants are in favor of this bill, but the representatives of wage earners are to- tally opposed to it and it is unlikely that it will ever become a law.-Hart. ford Post.
