FIRE COMMISSIONERS

Held a Special Meeting and Discussed
Important Matters.
The fire commissioners met last even
ing in special session to consider the
petition of the Ready Bits Food COM
pany for fire protection. They voted
that the same offer be made to them
that was given to the National Wire
corporation, that in case of a fire on
their premises the city would Furnish
an engine and men at the rate of $50 an
hour. Both these offers have to be rat
flied by the board of aldermen before
going into force.
The board voted that a special COM
mittee be appointed to take up the mat
ter of finding suitable location for the
new engine house which is to be locat-
ed in the Fourth ward. The committee
have number of locations in view but
nothing definite has yet been settled in
the matter. There are three grades OF
fire engines and the board desires to
buy one Of the first grade, but the
cheapest they can purchase it for II
SIS, 500. This they consider too much tc
pay for it, They expect to hold a meet
ing on next Wednesday evening, wheI
these matters will be gone into in de-
tail.

PAST, PRESENT
AND FUTURE.

The large earnings that have been
reported by the Southern Pacific COM
pany month by month for some time
have naturally attracted attention
afresh to the state of California, the
richest section through which the lines
of this company pass. The fact that
during the last few months the Pacific
Mail Steamship company, controlling
interest in which is owned by the
Southern Pacific company, has added
two large vessels to It's China service,
is convincing proof of the rapidly
growing trade between the Golden Gate
and Oriental ports.
With all due respect to the present
management of the Southern Pacific
company, the Pacific Mail Steamship
company, Union Pacific railroad COM
pany and allied companies, it is doubt
less safe to make the assertion that
much of the rapid development, both as
to railroads in California and neigh
boring states and of the steamship SER
vice closely allied with these railroads,
is but the carrying out of the ideas OF
the late Coils P. Huntington, formerly
president of the Southern Pacific COM
pany, and who doubtless did more
than any other man toward the devel-
opment of the west by the building Of
railroads when no one else had the
courage to enter upon such an under
taking.
In view OF the development within
the last two years along the lines indi-
Gated, it is interesting to refer to an
address delivered by Mr.. Huntington
, on May 16. 1900, at an annual banquet
of the Southern Pacific officials. In this
address, from beginning to end, Mr..
| Huntington demonstrated beyond the
possibility of a doubt that he fully ur-
derstood the factors which, IL put in
operation, would result in the perma-
nent development of country. In the
early part Of the address he gives con-
siderable space to a, comparison of the
| habits of living of the gold seekers OF
40 and so and the prosperous citizens
Of California Of to-day. During the
early period, to quote Mr.. Huntington,
Life was a grand hiliday and its pa
tron saint was License. Fortunes
changed hands on the turn Of card, OF
the throw Of dice, and life itself
f1ickered and went out ait the click of a
revolver 1t is a romance which Cali
forria can never repeat.
THE type of that era have dwindleo
in numbers until to-day they car
scarcely be found anywhere. The mer
of 40 and so kept one element in theil
life without which growth In any direc-
ton cannot long continue-woman
The advent OF mothers, wives and sis
tiers changed the whoe atmosphere as II
by magic. To-day mining, as an occu'
patton. is upon a very different plane
from what it was in the early days, ane

SUPREME COURT DECISION.
Opinion in an Important Insurance Cas-
Handed Down.

Opinion in az Important Insurance case
Handed Down.
The opinion of the supreme court in
the insurance case Of Adam Schmaelze
VS.. the London and Lancashire Fire In
surance Co. ct ais, which was handed
down in full yesterday afternoon, will
be of considerable Importance to insur-
ance companies as in the opinion OF
that court it would seem that a blanket
policy was a greater risk than a SPECIFIC
policy. The plaintiff was the owner of
premises, brewery, shed, stock and ma
chinery. He had the brewery, machines
and stock insured in thirty-four differ
ent companies for $4,000. Thirty-one
of the policies were blanket policies and
the other three were specific policies.
to the amount of $1,000. All of the
buildings were burned down and the
amount of insurance to which Mr..
Schmaelzle was entitled was estimated
at s42,953, although the sound value of
the property was estimated at $59,9S2.
The amount of insurance he was entit-
led to was conceded to by all the COM
panies. There was no dispute between
the plaintiff and companies but between
the companies having blanket policies,
and the three having specific policies.
The court decided in favor of the speci-
fic policies. The opinion of the supreme
court in it's decision as to how the loss
should be adjusted is as follows: The
supreme court is advised that in the adj
justment of the plaintiffs loss and its
apportionment among the defendant
companies, the items in which there
was loss to be taken up in the order Of
the greatest losses; the whole property
BEND divided for this purpose into
items corresponding to those designated
in the total insurance; that in comput-
ing the total amount of insurance upon
the first item the full amount of blanket
insurance be applied and that the full
amount Of any given blanket policy
added as the amount of insurance upon
the item under such policy; that with
respect to the second and subsequent
items the same rule be adopted, save
! that the total amount Of insurance
! therein be reduced by the amount OF
blanket insurance already exhausted in
the settlement upon former items and
the amount of insurance under any CIV
en- blanket policy likewise reduced by
the amount thereof used in fire adjust
ments, and that judgment be rendered
against the several defendants accord
ing to the results thus obtained.
