uLrIMATuM TO UNDERWRITERS.
Pay up san Francisco Fire Losses or
Get Out of Business.

In the name Of the city Of San
Francisco and the state of California
demand has been made upon insur-
ance companies that are accused OF
irving TO dodge their obligations for
a full settlement with the people OF
the city. A telegram signed by
Mayor Schmitz and Governor Pardee
has been sent to the home offices OF
the 81 companies that voted in Oak
land to cut all payments OF losses 70
per cent. The exact contents OF the
telegram are kept secret, but it known
that the message is virtually an ulti-
matum and a warning to the concerns
addressed that they must deal fairly
and honestly with the San Francisco
public or be driven from California.
Before the message was sent 1t was
submitted to Insurance Commissioner
Wolf, who gave it his entire approval.
A number Of companies that hold
large amounts Of reinsurance in other
concerns would sign stipulations ex-
tending the time for filing proof
of loss were they not prohibited
from doing so by the reinsurance com
panies. They have conferred with
Commissioner Wolf and explained the
plight in which they find themselves.
They have been warned, they say, that
they will run the risk of losing all
their reinsurance if they yield to any
demand of the insurance commits
sioner. The Royal Exchange company
has arranged with the commissioner
to have a published extension of time
accepted by him instead of the stipula-
ton demanded. This extension is
until September 1.

Another Star Added to Flag by Presi-

New Mexico Take a Vote Whether
They Will Come In as One State.

Another star Was added to theUnion
Saturday, when President Roosevelt

Indian Territory as one state. The
measure also provides that Arizona
and New Mexico may be admitted to
statehood as the state of Arizona, pro-
vided the people of the territories
vote in favor of admission on the
terms submitted by congress.

ritories, who have worked Iong and
hard for the measure, were present, as

KTDNAPER LANDS In PRISON.
Stolen Child Was Returned After a
Weeks Detention.

Philadelphia, Pa, June 20.-After a
weeks confinement in an untenanted
house, subsisting on bread and milk
and suffering from exposure, little
Freddie MLth, the 2 year old boy who
was abducted a week ago, has been re-
turned to his home.
His abductor, John J Kean, is in
the city Jail, and bis trial is to be rush
ed by the loacl authorities.
John J. Kean,t he kidnaper Of little
Freddie Muth, was once a prosperous
broker, who was respected in the tusi-
ness world, and whose word could com
mand a moderate amount of capital.
My a few years ago he was happily,
married aid is now the father of three
bright and interesting children, the eld-
est not yet as old as the boy he stole.
Then, a few years ago, there entered
upon the scene a woman. For her the
prosperous broker neglected both his
business and his family, until the form
er went to ruin and the latter was
brought to the verge Of actual suffer-
ing.
In an effort to recoup his fallen for
tunes, Kean entered the real estate bus
mess, and here his ability placed him
on the high road to prosperity.
But his income would not suffice for
the maintenance of his family and the
household of the other woman as we'll,
and he began classifying his accounts
and embezzling rents and moneys which
he had collected for his clients. His
dishonesty was discovered by a man
named Cooke, whom he had represent
ed ever since his entrance into the real
estate business, and for whom he had
handled large sums.
Cooke vas not only a client, but a
friend and benefactor of Kean, even
providing him with a free house for
mis- family. When he discovered the
of the man he had befriend-
he did not at once cause his arrest,
put instead went to him and informed
aim of what he had discovered and
him June IL, to make good the
'mbezzled money. On Saturday, June
Kean wrote to Cooke from Palmyra,
Y. j.. stating that either Tuesday night
n Wednesday he would return the
itolen money, which amounted to less
han $l2. 900. 1t was in order to get
he funds to pay this obligation that
Aean kidnapped Freddie Muth.

John J. Keane was sentenced to 90
