HOUSE PASSES BILL.
Indian Appropriation Measure Is Dis
posed Of BY House.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March S.
The house today passed the Indian APP
preparation bill and then proceeded to
tangle itself up over bill to abolish
the grade of lieutenant-ge general in the
army. The result was an Adjournment
for lack of quorum after the mem
bers had been locked in thet hall for
half an hour and the sergeant at arms
had been scurrying to various hotels
in seasch of members. A vote to con-
slider the bill showed an overwhelm-
ing sentiment in It's favor and as 1t is
pending business under the call of the
committee, it will probably be reached
and passed in due course.

New York, May 3.-The Tribune today
says:
Representatives of both foreign and
American fire insurance companies who
were in the city yesterday discussed ac-
ton to effect compromise in the adjust
ment of losses by the San Francisco fire.
The discussion was largely upon the ques-
ton as to the attitude the adjusters of
companies should be instructed to take in
regard to the disputed questions The
great companies express a strong purpose
to be not only just, but generous in cases
OF doubt with the victims of the fire, but
they all evidently feel what was ex-
pressed by the president of a large Amer
lean company, who said
The adjusters for this company will
not be allowed to waive the conditions
Of its policies, nor the conditions and re-
Strlctions of its charter We have no
more right to pay a loss occasioned by
earthquake than we have to pay a loss of
life We are not earthquake insurance

Because of exemption from loss by
earthquake damage WeII-infOrmed insur-
ance men estimated yesterday that the
companies would ultimately pay from so
to 10 per cent of the aggregate amount at
risk.

APPEAL TO THE COUNTRY
WORK OF REMOVING DEBRIS
COMMENCED.

San Francisco, May 9.-No plan has yet
been decided upon for securing funds for
the restoration of this city. Although
various schemes, some of them apparently
feasible, have been submitted to the gen
eral committee, none of them has yet
been given even the semblance of official
endorsement, and the local financiers
continue to worry over the problem, hope
full that the early future will produce a
solution that will relieve San Francisco
from her great burden of municipal and
individual distress. Each day at the as
semblng of the general and finance com
mittees the subject has been up for dis
cussion, but the disposition of those bodies
is to be conservative and cautious and it
is probable that several of the great cen
ters of the financial world will be con-
suited before any definite proposition is
formulated
