with one shell exploded, was found several
blocks away from the scene Of the shooting,

night that he had letter. brought to him
by Hoch to be translated from German

OF q threatening nature and referred to
Ruppert's demands for money, which he
claimed as his due. Hoch warned his

TAXABLE WEALTH
IS INCREASING
Greatest Gains in Cities
and the Mining
Counties.
State Equalizers Note the Big
Real Estate Deals in
This City.

San Francisco is not the only county in
the State that will show large increase
of wealth in the next return of taxable
property. The total value of assessable
property in Los Angeles County in 1901
was $1O3, ,32S, ,904. In 1902 the total value was
s117, ,s16,211. There are many indications
that the returns for 1903 will show an in
crease in the same ratio of gain as that
recorded in 1902.
The taxable property in San Francisco
in 1901 amounted to s413 ,3SS, 42O. The
amount returned in 1902 was S420 ,945 ,S54.
The urban increase from year to year is
going far ahead of the rural gains.
There is assurance that the mining
counties of Tuolumne and Calaveras are
gaining in taxable wealth. Tuoiumne's
increase in 1902 over the return in 1901
was $264 900. The increase in Calaveras
for the same period was $3.50 600. There is
a steady increase in the mineral produc-
ton Of both counties.
Word comes from CalaveraS that the
Royal Mining Company, near Milton, Is
making great additions to it's plant for
crushing ore, and will, as early as May
next, be equipped with machinery capa-
BILE of crushing one thousand tons Of rock
daily. 1t is noted, however, in the county
that the new machinery is coming from
the East, and the miners are wondering
If San Francisco is unable to meet East
ern competition.
The Melones mine, under the new MAN.
agement or supervision Of Director Lang
ford, promises to make fine record for
productiveness This mine is at Robin
sons Ferry, Tuolumne County.
The last years gain of taxable wealth
In Humboldt County was one million dol
lars There are signs that a still larger
gain will be reported in the next return
of assessable property
In 1901 the grand total value Of all prop
erty in Alameda County was $50 IN. .O05.
In 1902 the value was $91. .703, 1925. These
figures show that Alameda is keeping pace
with Los Angeles.
Members of the State Board of Equal
ization are making memoranda of real es-
tate sales in San Francisco. 1t is noted
that a small frontage at the corner of
Geary and Powell streets was recently
sold at the rate Of $1,000 per front foot.

Burglars Still Busy.

Henry Curry was arrested yesterday
morning by Policemen Regan, Mcconnell
and Mcnamara and booked at the City
Prison on a charge of burglary. He en-
tered a house at 241 Natoma street and
stole some clothing, which was found in
his possession when arrested. H. NJ. Rob-
erts, 40 Seventh street, reported yester-
day that his room had been entered dur
ing his absence and, although the bureau
drawers, trunks. closets and valises had
been thoroughly ransacked, nothing was
missing, the burglar being evidently in
search of money. A. Ortion, grocer, 1924
Union street, reported that two young
men broke his plate glass window Tues
day afternoon with the intention of steal
ened away by the noise of the falling
