Bullying WALLS
THREATEN CRASH
At ANY MOMENT
Collapse of the SkidmOre Build
ing Completely Blocks Traffic
on That Part of Fifth Street
Street Car Schedules Have to
Be RearranGed.

The collapse of the interior of half
of the Skidmore block, at the corner of
Fifth and Minnesota streets, proved to
be a serious as we'll as a remarkable
accident. Daylight revealed that the
entire half of the building was Quilted
and that only the four walls remained
standing. The roof, the three upper
floors and their contents were lying
in a mass of debris at the bottom,
spilling out upon the street and side
walk in front and into the alley in the
rear.
The sight of the building in ruins
and the cracked walls which seemed
ready to topple into the street at any
time attracted thousands of people to
the scene yesterday. All day long
crowds stood about the ropes which
We're stretched across the street. The
police maintained vigilant watch to
prevent the possible danger of any
one being crushed to death in case the
walls should fall.
All traffic on Fifth street between
Minnesota and Robert streets was
stopped, and no one was allowed to

California Wealth.

The reports made by the savings banks
of San Francisco recently show deposits
of $156, ST. 37 This immense sum ex-
ceeds the record of all former years, and
represents about $3.50 perIcapita. AS this
is more than three times the average
whole United States it is certainly a good
showing, nor is 1t confined to San Fran
cisco. The returns from the banks OF
the state, save national banks show an
aggregate increase of assets for the year
Of $55,376,024 This exceeds the highest
former record of gain by $24,S71,497.
California is not simply a land for the
tourist, but for the investor and the farm
er. Perhaps no other farmers enjoy
so large an income as California farmers.
A rate per cent on the investments that
would satisfy the Eastern farmer Is con-
sidered very meager here. Fruit farming
has always been profitable: fortunes have
been made in oranges. and the yield Of
alfalfa makes dairying paying industry,

business without a license. The pros

for the next two weeks If the assembly
does not meet within that time.
Last night the assembly while engaged
IN little wrangle over the reported
opening of a saloon on South Robert

Stock Is DAMAGED.

The stock Of the Leslie Paper COM
pany, though not entirely destroyed, is
badly damaged. The stock is valued
at $4,000, and the total loss to the
company will probably be half that
amount. The loss to the building, own
ed by M. j. O'Neil, will aggregate
about $25,000
f. G. Leslie stated yesterday that
the upper floors had been stored with
a large stock of paper but that the
amount was under the limit allowed
by the building inspector Mr.. Leslie
said that recently he noticed that the
beams We're loose, and that he feared
that the building was unsafe. He there
fore asked the inspector how much he
would be allowed to place in the build
Ing. He asserts that the amount in
the building was less than that permit
ted.
The Hayner Distilling company, oc-
cupy1ng the half Of the building next
to the Leslie Paper company, was
slightly affected by the collapse. A
number of bottles on the upper floors
were broken, but the damage was
small. The local representatives of the
company say that they have not vet
decided whether they will secure other
quarters. The furniture and stock on
the side nearest the Quilted part was
removed yesterday. The Leslie PAPER
company has opened a temporary Of
flee on Minnesota street, near Fifth.
and has secured a store house on Third

debris Will be commenced today
