Lower Lumber Rates

The principal changes noted in the
new Western freight classification are
the lowering of rates east-bound on
manufactured lumber by the coast
lines. The only other changes of any
importance in the big tariff basis are
minor reductions on some classes of
freight between specific points, and the
effect of the changes are generally
nothing more than corrections and ad-
justments.

$500 more than has ever been raised
before. There is a small sum in the

duty The Federal authorities have
promised to be represented by detach-
ments of artillery, cavalry. infantry

Uniyersity's BenefactresS
Will Continue to Help
AnthropolOgical Works
AGENT SPEAKS FOR HER
Edward Clark Says There
Is No Intention to Aban-
don Many Of the Activities
Berkeley Office San Francisco Call,
214S Center Street, June s.


Whatever else Mrs. Hearst does, she
will not withdraw her support from
the anthropological department that
she has so literally patronized. A
persistent rumor that Mrs. Hearst con-
templated letting that branch of the
university's activities shift for itself
was denied to-day by Edward Clark,
manager of Mrs. Hearst's business af-
fairs, who defends his employers re-
cent acton in refusing to give further
aid to some of the benefactions she
founded.
Mrs. Hearst, SO Mr.. Clark says, will
continue to give her support TO the
anthrOpological department. Her
gifts to assist the work of searching
for the hidden relics of past ages have
amounted TO at least 200 a year
for several years. Her agents have
delved beneath the earth and among
the archives of foreign lands until
now the University of California
boasts of one of the most valuable
collections in the world.
Mrs. Hearst will continue to sup
port the archaeological department"
said Manager Clark at his Office in
San Francisco this morning. 1T Is
true that the contracts with some of
the scientific men engaged to carry
on researches will soon expire and
probably will not be renewed. But
the work these men set out to do is
about completed and there is no fur
ther need for their services. Her con-
tract with Professor Otto Emerson, for
instance. will expire in September.
Under Professor Emerson's direction
Mrs. Hearst has spent 100000 this
last year upon Greek and Egyptian
researches alone. She has also sup
ported the work of Professor F. w.
Putnam in America and Professor
Max Uhle in Peru. which have cost
great sums of money.
1T seems to me unkind to talk
about Mrs. Hearst withdrawing her
benefactions. l think l can say that
she does not intend to withdraw her
patronage of the university at all. She
has simply cut down on a few things
that did not Justify continued expendi-
lures of money. The few she has
abandoned are nothing compared to
the many she is still assisting"

DALTON MUST
RETURN MONEY
Suit Decided Against Him
and Alameda County Given
Judgment for Sum of$1999
HAS NO RIGHT TO FEES
Contract Made by Him With
HI. H. Miller Declared to
Be Illegal and Is Void
Oakland Office San Francisco Call.

1016 Broadway, June s.
County Assessor Henry P. Dalton
must pay Alameda County 1899 which
he collected from the city of Oakland
for furnishing the assessment rolls to
the city. In a decision handed down
to-day Judge Melvin decides that Dal-
ton has no right to the money. Dalton
charged the city of Oakland S2650 for
preparing the assessment rolls. OF this
amount Judge Melvin found 1851 to be
actual expenses, and that the balance
should have been turned into the
county treasury.
On the trial of the countys suit
against Dalton he claimed he had en-
plOyed Fl. H. Miller, one of his deputies.
10 do the work and promised him 3
cents folio this being, the amount the
city was willing to pay. Thirteen men
finished the work in ten days and but
two of them were paid. the others testi
flying they never expected anything for
their services.
Judge Melvin said:
The Assessor is required to file with the Au-
ditOr "a sworn statement showing the persons
10 whom the amounts paid 10 each for
such assessment rolls The very purpose Of
requiring the sworn statement in detail must
have been the furnishing OF data which would
enable those interested in the matter to deter
mine whether or not the Assessor had re-
tanned only the actual cost of the work There
fore it is clear that the contract with Mr.
Miller was void That contract being OF no
effect the Assessor must pay 10 the county the
difference between $2650 and the actual cost Of
the work. It seems from all the evidence that
d fair estimate of the value of their services.
counting overtime. for the days during which
they worked upon the city's rolls, is $50 for
each man. or amount equal to the value of
fifteen days OF the ordinary service Of these
same men when working the usual number of
hours per day for the Assessor. II make no
difference that these men had agreed to work
for Mr. Miller. their fellow employe, for less
money or for nothing or without any arrange
ment as to compensation. Whatever their re-
lations with Mr.. Miller might have been, which
induced them TO reduce waive compensation
when working for him. these relations would
have bearing upon their claim against the
Assessor for the reasonable value of their la
Dor
From the foregoing il follows that plaintiff
should have judgment for the difference be
tween S265g and S651 that is 10 say, for the
sum Of $l999, together with the costs of suit.
This is the third suit OF the same
sort decided against Dalton, and he
now has $2S00 just collected from the
city for the last assessment rolls which
viii also be the subject Of a suit.

EMPLOYEES ARE
STILL UNPAID
Salary Roll of the County
Infrmary Suspended 0w-
ing to Lack of Funds
MANY BILLS PRESSING
No Claims for May Yet Set
tIed-This Years ApprO-
priatfOn Is Not Yet Due
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
1915 Broadway, June S.

1915 Broadway, June S.
The County Infirmary pay roll has
been suspended and no bills have been
allowed against this fund since May
9. The employees of the County In
firmary and Receiving Hospital have
not received their May salaries. The
question is asked how far the shortage
viii extend. There is at present to the
credit Of the infirmary fund the sum
of $4471 5s. Against this there are
bills now on file aggregating about
$4,000 and a month yet to run be-
fore the next years money will be
available.
Whether the salaries Of the thirty
or forty employees on the infrmary
pay roll can be paid out of the money
now remaining in the fund or at all is
a question that is interesting them.
Statutory fees can be paid out of any
available money or can be carried
over into next year, but the wages in
question are not provided for by stat
ute and if the present month slips
through without their being paid IL is
questionable whether they will be
paid at all. The money remaining in
the fund could be used for this pur-
pose, but there are outstanding
against this fund bills long overdue,
which were on file before the salaries
accrued and il is believed they must
take precedence in the order of filing.
The butcher and baker, grocer and
coal man have large accounts and the
banks have refused to discount their
claims. The clam0r for money is be-
ing heard throughout political circles
and wherever influence can be brought
to bear upon the Supervisors TO pass
claims. The Grand Jury is still in ses-
sion and is hampering the movements
of the board. II is believed that as
soon as this official body is out of ex-
istence the Supervisors Will take some
action looking to the relief of the sit
