PROPOSED STREET REGULATIONS.


Several Prospective Measures Discussed
by City solicitor and Street Commi,sioner
City Solicitor Sylvester ID. Town
send, Jr., and Street Commissioner
Frank W. Pierson held a conference
this morning, in regard to preparing
a number of resolutions TO be acted
onlby the Street and Sewer Department.
The resolutions will prohibit the opera
tion of noisy or fat wheel trolley cars,
the erection Of swinging signs, block
ing the sidewalks with a display re-
ceipt OF shipment of goods, and the
building Of windows projecting beyond
the building line.
They examined the provisions from
about twenty five cities relating to
these matters and will select the best
from them with which TO prepare the
resolutions that will probably be acted
upon in a few weeks by the Street and
Sewer Directors. Before they are
finally prepared, however, the matter
will be taken up with the Board Of
Police Commissioners.
City Solicitor Townsend has com
pleted the specifications for the collec-
tion and disposal of garbage, in accor-
dance with the terms of the new ordi-
nance, and has forwarded a copy to the
clerk of council.
He has also approved the vaccine or
dinance and sent it to Council. II
provides for an additional physician tc
be elected by the city at large. This
ordinance will probably be passed by
Council at its next meeting, and it is
likely that a colored physician will
be elected.

Washington, April 2l.-Senator Allison,
chairman of the Senate committee on ap-
propriations, had a conversation with the
President today regarding the conditions
which have arisen In San Francisco.
He said, on leaving the White House,
that it was entirely likely that Congress
today would pass another bill, appro-
priating an additional million for the re-
lief Of the people Of the stricken city.
Secretary Taft this morning presented
the need for an additional appropriation
for the San Francisco fire sufferers to the
House committee on appropriations, sug-
gesting that 81 100000 more should be
appropriated To this the committee
readily consented, and the appropriation
will be made today. The Secretary ex-
planned that a special message from the
President, together with a letter of detail
from himself, was on its way to Congress

The. Campaign Policy TO be Outlined at
Meeting on Monday Night.
A call was issued this morning for
a meeting of the Union Republican
City Committee, to be held in the
Bader Building, next Monday night,
for the purpose of taking action
prompted by the action of the Regular
Republican State Committee,a at Dover,
yesterday.
It is the intention Of the Union Com
mittee to map out plan of campaign
work independent Of the Regulars,
for the feeling prevails among large
number of the Union committeeman
that negotiations are practically at an
end, which, to them, evidently means
that it is advisable to proceed as a
separate organization. 3.
While it is not definitely known, II
is thought likely that j. Edward AZ
dicks will be at the meeting, IN whiic!n i!
event, it is believed, he Will state MS
views in no unmistaken terms.
