Great Damage Done to Property at
RockaWay Beach.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2O.-Rockaway
Beach was swept by fierce storm to-
day and much damage was done, but
so far as is known no lives were lost.
A tornado swept over Rockaway Park,
blowing down trees, fences and CHM
neys and leaving a wreck strewn path
200 feet wide. The wind caught the roof
of the pavilion attached to the Adiron-
dack Hotel and the building was de-
mGlshed, but nobody was injured. Por-
tions of the wreck were caught up by
the wind and carried a hundred feet
away.
The tornado passed out into Jamaica
Bay, where the wind formed small
waterspout that grew in proportions as
it passed UP the bay, overturning many
of the small boats anchored in the
channel
1t spent its force against the railroad
trestle. The tide in Jamaica Bay rose
to an unprecedented height. Thou
sands of tons of sand were cut away
from the beach by the strong cur

RESTORES COIN,
But LOSES JOB
William Smith, the Paying
Teller of Local Savings
Bank, Is Given Dismissal

Speculation lured William J. Smith.
receiving teller of the San Francisco
Savings Union, from the paths of duty
and lost him his position. Though he
made good every cent he used, Smiths
employers decided to let him go.
William ]. Smith was prosperous,
and we'll liked by a large circle of
friends. He was keeper of wampum
for the Improved Order of Red Men
and chancellor of the exchequer for one
of the lodges of the knights of Py-
thias. In all more than $4,000 was in
trusted TO his care.
When one of the bubbles of specula-
ton IL which he based his hopes burst,
Smith used this trust money, hoping
to regain what he had lost. But it was
good money thrown after the bad, and,
more than that. money not his own.
The salt trust" the scheme which he
hoped would make him rich. fell fiat
The moneys he used were: $1,000 be-
longing to Manzanita Tribe; $S0OO
the per capita tax of the Great Council
of the Red Men, and $500 belonging to
the knights of Pythias.
These sums he made good. For the
$1,000 he gave property at Point Rich
mond worth more than that sum. Fol-
the $4,000 he gave securities worth
double the amount. The $500 he PAID
in cash.
His brethren in the fraternal orders
forgave him Immediately, but his en-
ployers felt that man given to spec
ulation should not be a receiving teller
Smith lives at 922 Ellis street.
James Boyes. Smiths successor as
keeper of wampum in the Red Men
said last night:
William ]. Smith is as honest as
the day. 1t was simply a case of mis-
placed confidence. If he wanted 5000

JOKE CAUSES ARREST
OF GOTHAM BROKERS
Pennies With Toy Roulette
Wheel

NEW YORK, Aug. 20.-A joke that
miscarried has caused a police raid on
a brokerage office in a big building on
Lower Broadway and the arrest of five
men, who were locked up on charges of
gambling. Two Of the prisoners are
members of the Consolidated Stock and
Petroleum Exchange.
After the days business had been fin
ished some one in the brokerage office
produced a pocket roulette wheel such
as are sold in toy shops, and those
present, anxious for amusement, sent
out for lot of pennies. Then all sat
down to a big table and were having a
lot of fun when the door suddenly flew
open and squad of detectives entered
The brokers explained that they were
only amusing themselves, but admitted
that they were gambling. The pennies
and wheel were confscated and the
players marched off to the station.
1t appears that some outsider n
spirit of fun had called up police hedd-
quarters and reported a gambling
house in full operation in the office.

Suit Says the Governor

EAGER TO BUY STOCK
Two Holders RelinquiSh a
Portion of Their Shares
on Behalf of Executive
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, Aug. 20.-Just exactly
how Governor Oden acquired his
$500 900 worth Of bonds Of the defunct
United States shipbuilding Company
was told to-day. The statement is
made without qualification that his suit
FOR the recovery Of the money thus in
vested viii not be settled, as was the
suit brought by kavanaugh.
According TO the statements made to-
day by one Of the principal defendants
in the Governors suit, the Governor on
three separate occasions told the men
who were promoting the deal that he
wanted 10 come in. He was told that
these men did not guarantee the sue
cess OF the project, but he said he knew
al about the scheme and was satisfied
that II was a good one. He telephoned
one Saturday morning in the spring
OF 1902 10 J. T. Boothroyd. Charles B.
Alexander's secretary, that he wanted
TO get hold of some of the shipyard
bonds; he reiterated this statement at
the home Of Boothroyd in Newburg late
that day and again the following Mon
day by long distance telephone at
noon: when he was in Albany.
The Governor stated TO Colonel Nc
Cook and to Boothroyd. they declared.
that he wanted 10 get about 5000, 900
worth Of per cent thirty-year first
mortgage bonds Of the United States
Shipbuilding Company. He was told
the American underwriting Of $3,000,0o0
was already completed, but he insisted,
1t is asserted, and then Boothroyd went
to Lewis Nixon and asked him If he
would relinQuish some of his holdings
for the Governor, and John w. Young
was similarly asked If he would part
with some Of his bonds. Both agreed
10 do so.
The prospectus Of April 19, 1902. the
original scheme for invoking subscrip-
tions ard the underwriting agreement,
together with 100000 worth of the
bonds. were delivered to Governor Odell
at NewbUrg. 1t is understood that he
'faFmed out" practically his entire
holdings and one Of his closest friends
in NewbUrg is said to have had to
mortgage his house to pay for his pro-
portion Of the subscriptions as they
were called for under the terms Of the

Has Practiced Dentistry
Half Century in San
Francisco.

Another old California pioneer early
yesterday morning passed away when
DR.. Louis w Bush, living at 21os How
ard street, died of heart failure. A
short time before he expired he COM
planned of shortness of breath, but
none present thought the end was so
near. The stroke of death must have
been a gentle and a painless one, as
those around him did not know just
when the change took place.
DR.. Bush could be called the dean of
dentistry on this coast, as he came
here by way of Panama in 1854. He
opened an Office on Kearny street. near
Clay. which was for some time the only
place where the early San Franciscan
could get relief from dental woes. He
remained in that Office room for twen-
ty-two years, and in all his half-cen-
tury of life in this city he moved his
dental office only three times, and never
off Kearny street.
DR.. Bush was born in Hanover, Ger
many, where he learned his profession.
He landed in Baltimore in 1847, remain
ing there about six years. He leaves a
wife, one daughter, Mrs. A. F. kuder,
and two sons, Charles G. and DR.. Fer
dinand Bush, the latter of whom was
associated in the business with his
father. The deceased was member of
Concordia Lodge of Odd Fellows, by
whom he will be buried from the resi-
dence of the family at 210S Howard
street, Monday afternoon. 1t was the
doctors often expressed wish that his
body be cremated after death, and in
this manner the remains will be dis
posed of in Odd Fellows Cemetery.

time loans aside from the longer pc
riod The ca asiness of the London
money market had precluded the prob
ability of any call for money from that
quarter. Interior money markets show
the beginning of the fall demand. But
with a surplus of $60, 900, 900 in the New
York bank vaults the coming demand
is viewed with equanimity. 1t is ex-
pected that this demand will come up
to the usual volume and the higher
prices ruling for grain and cotton may
swell the usual demand. But possible
future contingencies of this sort are
not of much effect in the face of 1a
per cent call money rate.
Railroad earnings show general i'm
