Large Place at once
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO. May Mrs.
Will Crocker, who has been at Burlin-
game since the arrival of herself and
husband from New York last Saturday
night, this morning presented an ex-
tensive restaurant project to Mayor
Schmitz, which at once met his ap-
proval.
Vast eating houses for the accommo-
dation of workingmen in the burned
district will be established where a hot
and nourishing meal may. be had for
the nominal charge of five or ten cents.
The first of these will be installed i'm
mediately in Union square with a
capacity for 1000 customers.
Mrs. Crocker is enthusiastic over her
debut in the restaurant business. Her
idea is not to start a charity, but to
organize places where men who are
earning their living may secure good
food at noon time at cheap prices. She
is now searching for an experienced
manager to superintend the large enter
prise and a large number of cooks and
walters will be employed at good wages.
crockers Will Rebuild
Though the Crocker estate lost its en-
tire properties every stick and stone
will be rebuilt in finer shape than be-
fore. The Crocker building at Mont
gomery and Market is in a condition to
be reconstructed and laborers are al
ready al work upon it.
The Will Crocker mansion on Mob
Hill will be rebuilt. The only things
saved from this splendid residence were
three valuable pictures, Millet's Man
With the Hoe" a Corot and a Rous-
seau.
Besides Mrs. Crocker and her hus-
band, Charles Templeton Crocker is in
the city, having left Yale for a western
trip, as well as, Miss Jennie Crocker,
There will be a meeting of the Crocker
heirs at the first possible opportunity
where plans for the future distribution
of the estate will be discussed

The complaint was issued by Deputy
District Attorney Fleming and was
sworn out by Joseph L. Raulston, the
father of the dead baby. The COM

slaughter had been committed because
the child could be plainly seen on the

SAFE EXPERTS COME HIGH
Men Who Understand Combinations
Ask Exorbitapt Wages
Rv Associated BRASS


SAN FRANCISCO, May Com
plaint has been made that some of the
men employed in opening safes have
demanded exorbitant fees for their
work, in some cases asking $50 and
500 for their labor. The men who went
with County Clerk Mulcrevy to the
city hall yesterday to open the vaults
containing the public records wanted
500 before they would undertake the
work, but they did not get it.
When it, is considered that most of
the smaller safes can be opened with
the use of a hammer and chisel with
very little labor, it can be seen that
the amount demanded by some of the
workmen, is out of all proportion to the
labor required
A large safe company has sent out
word to all it's customers to pay no
more than $40 for the work.

SAN FRANCISCO May 1.-THE work
on the big tunnel at South San Fran
cisco in the HILL on the apex of which
stands the Roman Catholic orphan
asylum, was being carried on night
and day for the railroad and at the
time of the earthquake the entire night
force was still at work
The shake was terrific and put out
every light, and for time the men
were incapable of action, the fear of
each being that the tunnel would en-
tomb them alive, but by almost a mir
acle no one was injured.
All the men escaped alive from the
hole in the hill and but few were
bruised. An examination of the tun-
mel shows that it was not damaged and
work can be continued.
