DECIDE ON WING
FOR ST. FRANCIS
Directors Have Bonds for
Completion Of the Work on
or Before January l, 1907
LARGE GAIN IN ROOMS
Increased Floor Area Will
Afford Modern Quarters
for Hundreds of Guests

Plans for the proposed new wing TO
be added to the ST. Francis Hotel have
been approved by the directors and
work on the addition will begin in
May. Manager Woods said last even
ing that the contractors are bonded to
have the wing completed before jan
uary l, 1907.
AS recently announced in The Call,
the new portion of the hotel will give
needed features.
On the first floor of the addition.
fronting Powell street, will be a
lounging-room for men and women.
The rear part of the same floor Will
be fitted up for a clubroom for men.
The rooms on the eleventh and twelfth
floors will be used exclusively for bach
elorS' apartments, with shower baths
and exercising rooms attached. A floor
is to be arranged for commercial trav-
elers, and a handsome ballroom with
adjacent reception rooms is to occupy
the entire mezZanine floor of the
wing. The high ceilings necessary for
comfort in the lounging rooms on the
main floor and ballroom will consume
the space of what would otherwise be
used for rooms on third floor. The
entire structure will be completed be-
fore it will be connected with the
present building. All that will be nee
essary when it is finished will be to
cut out the north wall in line with
the corridors on the different floors and
connect the two. The only material
changes the new wing will cause in
the present hotel will be the removal
of the newsstand and telegraph and
mana gers offices to some other loca-
ton so that the present space occu-
pied by them may be utilized to bet
ter advantage.

SUPREME COURT TEST
Hinkel Is Elected to Office
OF Collector on Motion of
Commissioner Mackenzie

The Board of State Harbor Commits
sloners met yesterday afternoon. Presi-
dent charles H. Spear presided and
commissioners John c. Kirkpatrick
ana John ID. Mackenzie responded to
the roll call There was a sign of a lit
ue clash when Mackenzie nominated
T. q. H1nkel for collector, TO succeed
EDWARD Flanagan. Hinkel was elected.
receiving the support of Kirkpatrick
ana Mackenzie. The president voted
against the change. 1t is reported that
Hinkel Is rural constituent OF Com
missioner Mackenzie.
There was some discussion over the
following resolution:
Resolved. That the state Board AZ Harbor
commissioners request His ExceIlency. George
=. FSTdee. Governor OF the State or California
ocV bonds OF the denomination Of $1,000
each. at public auction. TO the highest bidder
sor,S sor easn' IN accordance with the terms set
5or,n r IN the act Of the Legislature OF the
state OF California. approved March go faO2
and known as the San Francisco seawan act
Commissioner Kirkpatrick doubted
the advisability of rendering the bonds
before suit had been instituted to test
tnelr Valldlty, and suggested that the
Merchants Association might be in
duced to take measures to bring the
question before the Supreme Court.
President Spear took into considera-
t1on the fact that capable LAWYERS had
found all the proceedings regular. and
also considered that bids for less than
par could not be entertained. II was
remarked that the interest and prin-
eipal would be provided for from tolls
and dockage-. No tax would be levied
on real or personal property 70 meet
the obligation. He fancied that the
bonds would be readily taken at a
premium.
The resolution was laid over for one
week with the understanding that At
torney Davis in the meantime would
confer with lawyers representing the
Merchants Association.
Commissioner Aigeltinger of the
Board OF Public Works briefly address
ed the meeting. urging the Harbor
Commission to join with the city TO
open driveway on the south side of
Channel street, between Fourth and
Sixth streets. The subject was referred
to Chief Engineer Norton.
The secretary was directed to send
a communication to the Merchants
Exchange requesting that all flags in
the city and harbor be placed at half
mast on the day the steamship Ala
media, bearing the body of Mrs. STAN
ford, arrives in this port.
