Work of Removing the Debris Is
Progressing Actively.
The lapse of a week from the earth
quake found tens of thousands home
less and hopeless in San Francisco.
The general condition could be best de-
.scriDed by the term Sherman applied
to war. 1t is - and repeat. And it
will be that for some time to come.
What is left of the population is still
-camped in streets, public squares,
Golden Gate Park, at the Preside and
around Fort Mason.
After all the carnage and the heart
rending tragedies Of the Civil War
however, when the smoke of battle had
cleared away, reconstruction came.
With the ruins still smoldering, with
the dead lying under smoking ruins for
many miles, where half-starved dogs
have been found eating them, San Fran
cisco has passed through the active
stage of the calamity and has entered
on a period Of reconstruction. Gangs Of
men are working here and there, d dis
patch Of Wednesday says, clearing
away the debris preparatory to the
erection of new buildings on the sites

Hunters Poverty Analysis.

Robert Hunter, the New York settle.
ament worker and author of Poverty"
when asked if he thought socialism was
the cure for the prevailing evils, said he
could not tell what state socialism would
bring about, but he was sure that certain
socialistic measures were necessary, such
as the municipal tenements of Liverpool,
Birmingham and London, where children
have healthy surroundings and places
to play; and the multiplication of the
milk supply, as at Rochester, England,
where the death rate of children has been
cut down one-half. Mr.. Hunter divides
the poor into three classes First, the al
most hopeless men of the bread line,
who are 'in the abyss of p~resent-day
civilization and almost irreclaimable";
second, the unskilled common laborers,
who are out of employment a large part
of the time. and who are constantly I'M
derfed, badly clothed and housed and
third, the children of the poor, half Of
whom die before they are ) years old, and
the rest Of whom go to work at II or -
in factories. ...

TRUST MUST SHOW BOOKS.
Federal Inquiry Into Coal MinA
Ownership by Railroads.

Unless the plans of the government 90
wrong entirely there will be before long
q sensational investigation of the coal
roads, which will attract as much atten.
tion throughout the country in its way
as the inquiry into the insurance com.
panicS did. Thus writes Il Washington
correspondent.
1t will be run by the same man. and
If he has luck the coal roads will be COM
PEELED TO come into court and produce all
their books and secret records to prove
the existence of n combination to control
the price of coal in defiance Of law.
Charles T.. Hughes is to be given Il free
hand in the prosecution Of the coal carry
ing railroads.. Immunity or no immunity,
he will be instructed to get at the facts,
and it Is the belief of government oti-
cials that under the recent decisions of
the Supreme Court he will be enabled to
go into the whole business Of the coal
road combination.
MIR. Hughes capacity as an investiga.
tor was demonstrated 10y the spectacular
success of his inquiry into the insurance
business. lie began that investigation
with only the power behind him of a
committee of the New York Legislature,
whereas he will go into the study of the
Wal w Ny Ni' PL'Nh
of the United States government in a fed
eral court, and with the moral and mate
rial support of the President and the At
torney General.
Under the antitrust law. as we'll as
under the interstate commerce law and
the Elkins law, n railroad corporation
can be directly punished by fine. Its
officers can be summoned and made to tes'
tify. They may claim immunity for
themselves, but not for their corporation.
Mr.. Hughes subpoena will unlock every
record of every railroad, it will compel
the officers of the roads to testify as to
the acts of the corporations, and if Mr..
Hughes is as successful as the government
officials believe he will be, the result will
be to rip open the coal combination. be.
cause after one railroad is convicted OF
conspiracy to maintain prices the same
evidence will operate on another, and so
on until the whole combination is broken
Up.
The coming prosecution in the federal
court may lave a bearing on the settle
ment of the coal strike, but whether it
does or not the prosecution will be one
OF the most sensational ever known in
this country. Enough evidence already
has been developed by the interstate COM
merce commission to justify the prosecu-
ton, lot only of the railroads but OF
some of the officials as we'll.

National Capital Notes.

The latest official cable report received
by the American National Red Cross from
Japan states that the number Of people
who have to depend upon outside help IS
over 100000.
Congress must decide whether the Unit
ed States needs a new national air. Sec
rotary Bonaparte has advised Julius T..
Lyons of New York that after consulting
| with other members of the cabinet he has
| decided national music is a subject for
legislative consideration and does not fall
| within the province of members of the

Sir Leonard Lyeil, a celebrated English
geologist, was presented to the President
by Director Wolcott of the geological sur.
vey. Sir Leonard is in America to study
the geological formation in the Yosemite
valley, the grand canyon of Colorado and
the Yellowstone Park.
The total immigration to the United
States from all countries during the
month of March, 1906, according to 1
| statement issued by the immigration bu-
reau, was 133,345 or an increase of 70
per cent over March. 1901. The number
arriving in March, 1905, is given as 1885,
90.
DIR. Scale Harris, professor of medicine
in the. University of Alabama. at Mo-
bile, talked with the President about the
ravages of consumption among the ne
groes of the South. He expressed the fear
that the negro race was likely to become
extinct in this country through the RAYS
ages of the disease.
Commissioner General Sargent os rs

All Endowment Income Tainted.

N. o. Nelson, the wealthy st. Louis
manufacturer, who has instituted profit
sharing with employees n customers,
writing of Business Pure and Tainted
in the Independent, says that our judg-
ment is blurred by the various current eX-
posures of rascality which purport to be
exceptional, and that we overlook the
patent fact that all endowment income
is drawn from the slavish labor Of un-
derpaid men and women, who are taxed
without their consent, or from the mo-
nopoly of land or franchises" Thos. +.
Ryan, in a brief comment on Nelson's
article, frankly sidesteps the whole ques-
ton of social reform by saying that the
subject Of eliminating competitive effort
to acquire money is too large for him !;
nevertheless, even Mr.. Ryan thinks it
right that competition between men
should be brought between constantly
narrower and narrower rules of Justice"
He thinks this is the direction in which
humanity is tending.

u Com 1licn = ---- L.

The destruction of the San Francisco
building of the Mutual Life Insurance
Company, which was located at Sansome
and California streets, may involve $4,000
policy holders carrying an aggregate of
$50.000,0OO of insurance in. serious COM
plications. All of the records concern

stroyed with the building. Complete du-
plicate records containing all of the late
Information concerning the Pacific coast

Officers of the large fire insurance COM
panies having their headquarters, in New
York City announce that losses by earth
quake were not included in the fire in
surance policies written for California,
and that such losses could not be allowed,
even if the companies were SO inclined,
for the reason that the laws of New York
State prohibited it. The rulings on the
losses by fire, however, will, it is said,
be broad, the. insurance companies agree
