San Francisco. Jan 1.-The close of the old
year shows California and San Francisco 10 be
IN an excellent financial condition with the hest
prospects for continued prosperity during the
new year. Rain has fallen sufficiently 10 assure
good crops. with the usual seasouabIe showers
during the remainder OF the winter. MANY
doubters at the beginning Of last year declared
that San Francisco could never maintain the
boom which set in after the outbreak OF the
Spanish war. but these have been proved false
prophets. These Jeremiahs declared that the
city was being overouilt. and that the erection
OF so many private hotels and apartment houses
would lead TO the abandonment OF many older
dwellings. But the new structures have been
filled as soon as completed. and yet there have
been no removals from the Old fashioned houses.
This shows that a remarkable number of new
residents have come into the city the last wear
one or the features of the rentals Of new bust
ness buildings is that a large percentage of the
tenants are new firms which have not had Offices
in the city heretofore.

The growth Of San Francisco in the suburbs
has also been remarkable. Barren sand dunes

with houses, and all the avenues as far out a

below the park on the Ocean Boulevard has also
increased rapidly. This settlement known as
Carville. from the fact that the first settlers
used OLD StreetCars for houses. promises to be
