TROUBLE IN LOCATING
THE NEW CHINATOWN

The committee on the permanent To-
cation of Chinatown has about made
up its mind that the task of establish
ing new site for the Chinese quarter
is involved in complex difficulties, and
that it will be impossible to make the
Chinese establish themselves in any
location against their will.
At the meeting of the Committee of
Forty, A. Ruef, chairman of the China
town committee, announced that his
committee had been working diligently
but in the face of considerable antag-
onism. He said a meeting of the
Chinese had been held on the previous
day, and that they had decided that
they would not move from their former
locations in the burned district. Ruef
added that there was no way to pre-
vent them from returning to the old
quarter except, through the exercise of
arbitrary restrictions and illegal dis
ordinations, which was farthest from
the thoughts of the committee and all
interests concerned. The Chinese, he
declared, would not consider the pro-
posed site at Hunter s point, which in
the committee s opinion was most ideal
from a sanitary, climatic and CONNER
cial point of view, being situated close
to deep water and within twenty min
utes by street car from the center of
the city. After thoroughly canvassing
the situation, Ruef said the committee
had decided to recommend a location in
the northern section of town, in the
hope that the Chinese will agree to
accept it. This locality is within the
district bounded by Sansome and Front
streets north of Pacific to the bay.
Chin Poo, for many years secretary
of the Chinese Six Companies, declares
that the organization has no intention
of abandoning it's former site: tThe
Six Companies own the lot at 1856 Com
mercial street, for which we paid $22,-
900 some time ago. said he. ''We do
not intend to abandon the prop
erty. but win proceed at once with the

which are now reached from the bust
ness centers only by extremely circui-
tous routes
These improvements he said.
Twill do much for the city, because
they will improve property values i'm
mensely, now and for all time / know
of no city in all the world possessed
of greater natural advantages than San
Francisco, and the opportunity now
afforded is great one. 1t permits of
things being done which have not been
possible heretofore, except at enor-
nous expense, and which are not likely
to be possible again.
"There are a half dozen men on your
committee which is considering these
matters, who are as keen and as cap
able of judging what is needed as any
men | have ever met anywhere. The
matter is in capable hands and these
men have so crystallized the problems
that it seems to me there is little or
nothing left to suggest to them. They
have done magnificent work and these
questions are safe in their hands.
Utility is the main thing to con-
slider in laying out streets. Adorn-
ment Will come later and will take care
of itself. Wide streets are needed for
traffic. In New York and Chicago, as
well as other large cities, this fact is
now understood, for the streets there
are congested. The cost of improve
ment in the matter of streets must. of
course, be considered. 1t is for the
people to say how much expense they
can stand at this time Broad thor
oughfares are not only useful but they
are ornamental also

UNDERGROUND CHINATOWN
SHOWN TO BE A MYTH

Among the many disclosures result
ing from the great fire, that which ex-
posed the underground city" fake in
Chinatown will doubtless prove of in
terest to more outsiders than any
other.
Every year thousands of tourists
have been led through the picturesque
streets of the Oriental quarter by the
shrewd guides who fattened on their
bounty. A feature of every tourist ex-
petition was a trip through the Won
derful underground passages and re-
treats of the Chinese. The guides
aroused the curiosity of the Eastern
ers with weird tales of the life in these
underground quarters, and of the great
dangers incurred in visiting them.
Each guide claimed he was the only
one who could show them these mys-
FERROUS dwellings. Then the party
would be led through a series of mar
row. winding Railways. through doors
that We're unbolted after strange sig
nails. and finally down a flight OF
ricAety stairs into an ill-smelling,
dirty ROOM where Chinese smoked
opium for the benefit of the visitors.
This was a great game in Chinatown
and the guides reaped golden harvest
from the easy tourists. Now the fire
has made of Chinatown a barren
waste, and barred its ruins to the pub
lie gaze, the fact is disclosed that
the world-renowned ten stories I'M
derground" was only a myth. The
ruins show that the Chinese quarters
only had the usual cellar and none of
them seem to be much deeper than
the ordinary residence basement.

WHY SALOON LICENSES
WE'RE ALL REVOKED

Every saloon license in the city was
revoked May IL by the Police Com
mission, and hereafter any person or
persons convicted of selling liquor
will suffer the extreme penalty Of the
law. This action was taken by the
Commission after a positive and deter
mined declaration on the part of
Mayor Schmitz.
''The good order that has existed in
this city since April 18th must and
shall be maintained,' declared the
Mayor. cit is reported that some men
are reopening their places and dis
pensing liquor. There is one way to
put a stop to the sale of liquor and
l advise the Commission to act on it
at once-that is, to revoke every Ii
cense in the city and keep the sa-
looms closed, even to the extent of
mailing them up. Order must be main
tanned and the saloons must be kept
closed absolutely for the present. -
There was some discussion as to
restaurants serving liquor with meals
and the corner grocery bars, but the
Mayor maintained his position-no hq-
uor whatever shall be sold. The Com
mission then went into executive SEES
sion, and when the doors Were again
opened Commissioner Drinkhouse offer
ed the following resolution, which was
adopted unanimously:
Whereas, The conditions which ex-
ist in San Francisco imperatively re-
quire for the city's best interests the
absolute cessation of all liquor traffic;
and whereas, all good citizens have
combined in the laudable desire to-
maintain such cessation; and whereas,
the proclamations which have hereto
fore been issued by his honor, the
Mayor, have been heretofore generally
obeyed, but a disposition now exists
on the part of some liquor dealers to
disobey the same and to question the
legality; and whereas, the same result
may be achieved by action on the part
OF the Board; therefore. be it
Resolved, That in order to secure
proper conditions and for the reasons
aforesaid. all permits to sell or dispose
of liquor in the city and county of San
Francisco be and the same are hereby
revoked and set aside until further ac-
ton of the Board, and all authorities

NUMBER OF LIQUOR
STORES TO BE RESTRICTED

This action was deemed absolutely
necessary owing to the fact that each
day saw an increase in the number of
places attempting to resume the saloon
business These places were conducted
secretly. and the police We're beginning
to find it difficult to watch all. There
are now five or six saloon-keepers cited
to appear before the Commission on the
charge of having reopened their places,
and, if convicted, it is probable that
their licenses will be revoked for all
time. That was the temper of the
Commission, when the proprietors were
cited to appear and make their defense
at the session next Friday afternoon at
3 O'Clock.
By the revocation of every license in
the city the Commission solves the
problem with which the police have
been struggling. Hereafter the sale of
liquor will be in violation of law and
arrests may follow promptly. With the
maximum penalty staring them in the
face on conviction, it is thought that
few, if any, of the saloon keepers will
take the chance for the few dollars
that they might take in, at the same
time being certain of a refusal when
the time comes to apply for a new IL
ceIlSe w men Lfdl time comes 1t Is al
most certain that nothing like the for
mer $500 licenses will be issued. In
addition to the above resolution Com
missioner O'Grady offered the follow
ing, which was also unanimously
adopted:
Whereas, 1t appears that, without
announcements are being
posted that certain premises viii short
~ be opened for the sale of liquor, and
temporary buildings are being erected
for the purpose; and,
Whereas, No policy has as yet been
formulated by this Commission to meet
the changed conditions which exist, and
such buildings are being erected at the
owners risk and without any assur-
ance by the Commission that such use
will be permitted,
Resolved, That all holders of per-
mits to sell liquor are hereby warned
until further notice, to incur no ex-
pense in the construction or prepara-
ton of any buildings, or to lease or
open for such purpose, under penalty
of absolute loss of their entire invest
nent therefor

'ORRENT OF SOFT MUD
COMES FROM THE EARTH

Within a couple of minutes after the
earthquake, and before they had time
to collect their shattered nerves. the
few people living within the section
at the base of the mountain just south
of Mount Olivet Cemetery, were put
to their wits end by a swirl of muddy
water that went rushing down into
the cemetery and toward the railroad
track. Like an avalanche it rushed
along, carrying everything within q
scope of 100 feet wide and fully one
half mile in length. Trees were up
rooted and buried, barns. work AMI
tank houses were carried away, and
between $4,000 and 10000 feet of Ium-
Der. the property of the Cemetery AS

the military, under General Greedy s
orders, Of the eliminating of the able
bodied men from the bread lines.
The work of the Red Cross in regis
tering entire districts has also had
much to do with wedding out ''repeat-
ers'' from the lines. The presence of
soldier on every supply wagon has
practically done away with diversion
of food supplies, and whatever caches
of provisions are boarded away in
cellars were the fruit of manipulations
of favored insiders during the first
confusion of indiscriminate giving.
The result of week and half of
Army discipline has reduced the work
of relief to a system. The city has
been divided into seven relief sections,
each section in charge of an Army Off
Ger, who makes a report at the close
of each day as to the number of ra-
lions issued from stations in his sec
ton. All reports from the city are
in turn summarized for the benefit of
Colonel Febiger. The result has been
that it is now possible to state, almost
to man, how many mouths there are
in San Francisco at present to feed,
and what proportion the destitute hold
to those who are able in some manner
to support themselves.
Colonel Febiger stated yesterday that
at the present time there are in San
Francisco 10000 persons who are de-
pending upon relief. Of these, at least
100000 are in position to support
themselves at such time as the 10
cent restaurants become generally In
use throughout the city. The remain
ing $4,000 are absolutely destitute, and
must continue to depend upon city re-
lief entirely until such time as con-
ditions are so improved that various
members of the different families can
begin again to find work.

5 RETURNING TO
GOLDEN GATE PARK

Campers are beginning to return to
Golden Gate Park in greater number
than the military authorities can
handle. With the small force of vol
unteer laborerS that he has working,
Major McIvor states that he is unable
to cope with the demand for foored
tents. No more tents are being fur
nished by the government to campers IN
the park unless the floors are laid. All
of the five locations that have already
been established as permanent camps
have been utilized to their full capacity
and until the permanent camp IN proc
ess of construction at the end Of the
speedway is completed, persons coming
into the park win have to make shift as
best they can. 1t is expected that this
last camp, which will accommodate a
population of about 1000, will be ready
in two days
The park is an excellent place for
campers, because of it's shelter, SAM
tary conditions and water, but it af-
fords few places where permanent
camps can be estab lished on a large
scale, and, for that reason, the work
of the military authorities is doubled.
Major McIvor is hampered in his work
by lack of help.
Men who willingly volunteered in
the early days of migration are com
PEELED to find work that pays wages,
and so the force of men employed in
locating camps and attending to the
various matters of sanitation that have
come up at the park has been greatly
diminished One of the features of
Major McIvor' IS work at the park has
been the installation of the Reed SAM
tary System. The system is the inven-
ton of DIR. Walter Reed, the well
known expert on the transmission of
yellow fever and typhoid by mosquitoes
and flies, and medical authorities state
that it bars all danger of a typhoid
epidemic where in operation.

BURNHAM TALKS TO
SAN FRANCISCO PEOPLE

D. H. Burnham, who reached San
Francisco Monday evening, was pres

mittee of Forty and was called upon
to speak by Mayor Schmitz
He said that the one question which
the people of San Francisco had to con-
slider Immediately was that of the
downtown district. He considered
that the immediate needs were nothing
more than the widening of several
streets in the old business section, and
the laying out of few diagonals, new
streets that would permit direct travel
between a number of important points,

ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS
A BOTTLE FOR WINE

1t cost the California Wine Associa-
ton about $1,000 bottle to bring to
superexcellent maturity a few thou
sand dozens of it's stock out of the
hundreds of thousands of bottles con-
tanned in its former vaults on Third
street, near Townsend. Although the
process was an expensive one, it was
aging at rate which has never be-
fore been equaled. The procedure pur-
sued was that of fire, and it was per-
formed on April 18th.
When the flames had performed their
work those bottles of wine which had
neither burst nor melted nor lost their
corks were withdrawn from the fur
mace and transferred to the Casa Caiwa
building of the California Wine Asso-
citation at $50 Townsend street. There
they were piled UP as relics of the con-
flagration, and an opportunity for test
ing opinions as to the character of
their contents was given by the draw
ing of corks from samples of various
kinds and brands of the freproofed
wines. The results We're uniformly
favorable though varying as to the
kinds of wine which had come safely
through the furnace process. All of the
dry wines We're found to have been
much benefited, but when the Bur-
gundy came to be tasted it was dis
covered that the California product had
achieved a mellownesss which surpassed
that of the far-famed vintage of
France. The sweet wine varieties were
even more advantaged by the heating
process, and this was especially notice.
able in the case of the sherries, which
have nothing to envy of their Spanish
progenitor. The connoisseur may en-
joy the result, but it is certain that
the winemakers will prefer to continue
their normal manner of producing their
stock. It is estimated that there were
about 10, 100000 gallons of wine de-
stroyed in San Francisco by the fire |
