PLAN OF NEWLANDS
SENATOR DISCUSSES REBUILDING
 OF SAN FRANcTsCO.
Movement On Foot for the Formst,o,, or Syndicate Which Will Ffnnce
 the Reconstruction of the
 Ruined City.

New York. May s.--Commenting last night upon the meeting held here veS- terday in connection with the move ment to form a syndicate which shall nnance the rebuilding of San Francisco Senator Newlands of Nevada, one of the prime movers of the project, said:
 We met today for the purpose of conferrfng as to the form of oreaniza- ton and selecting legal advisers who are to work out the plan H. $. Black. president of the United States Realty ana improvement Company. Frank A. Vanderlip, Frank K. Lane of the San Francisco committee, Thomas McGee of the finance committee of The san,a committee met in conference I do mt wish to state the exact complexion of the corporation which we believe will be founded. It is enough at the pres ent time to assert that 1t will be found ed upon the broadest and soundest principles. will be an investment (which will prove attractive not only to the banker and great capitalists, but also 10 th9 people at large who seek a pro- htable Investment for their savings
 The plan does not involve any guar anty Of the city Of San Francisco or the State of California, for we heltAve the realty of San Francisco will be am pie guarantee and security for all money invested in the country. The plan broadly, Is to incorporate, enab- Ing subscribers to create a fund which shall be used through the agents of the corporation resident in San Fran CISCO which is worth as much today as the day before the earthouake
 Tt is well known that the records Of really were preserved intact and that the titles are perfectly clear. Ready money should be available be. fore the great bulk of insurance poli- cies are paid over. As to whether the corporation will be limited to a short term of years or will be made practi- cally perpetual as a permanent invest ment, I cannot say.
 Suitable laws will be passed and the people are enthysiasticany going ahead and not dissenting voice will be raised to any arrangement which may be demanded. which shall be fair in the line of safeguarding investment San Francisco does not come here a suppliant, but offering a legitimate in- vestment, which is a good thing and will take rank at the top of financial properties. The concerns with which I am connected are in a position to h- nance their own rehabilitation. This plan looks to the general restoration.
 The damages wrought by the earth quake did not exceed $3.0o0,aOO. Fire crushed San Francisco We need not fear any earthquake of the tuture. we shall rebuild in sections as prescribed by the commission which will have absolute control of the new city beau. tiful, so that earthquNte buildings will be permitted within certain zones and so that the zones shall be separated by wide boulevards and spaces which in the event of a future confiagration will confine the flames within the zone in which they started.
 RON vMraA NN or until the plans for the corporation are matured Every encouragement has been given to us that all the capital we need will be forthcoming"

MISSOURI DEFEATED.
Chicago to Keep Its Big Drainage
Canal.

Washington, Feb 19.-The famous case of the
State Of Missouri against the State of Illinois
involving the right of the city of Chicago to
divert its sewage into the Mississippi River
through the Chicago sanitary canal and the IL
linois River. was decided to-day by the Supreme
Court Of the United States in favor of Illinois
Justice Holmes delivered the opinion Of the
court. which was that Missouri did not prove its
case There was no dissent.
This case has long been in controversy between
the States and grew out of the complaint made
by the people of Missouri. and especially of St.
Louis. against the turning OF the sewage from
the city Of Chicago into the Mississippi River
through the canal. the Desplaines River and the
Illinois River. The suit originated in the Su-
preme Court. because it involved a controversy
between States. The complaint was made by
Missouri and in its bill it charged that the di-
version of the sewage was calculated TO have an
injurious effect on the health of the people OF
the towns on the Missouri side below the mouth
Of the Illinois River. The declaration was made
that 1,5oo tons of poisonous. non-healthful and
noxous matters were discharged daily through
this channel into the Mississippi. with the result
that the waters OF that stream were pois-
oned and polluted and rendered wholly unfit for
domestic and drinking purposes; also that 1t
rendered worthless the water works system
OF st. Louis and other towns and cities below
the mouth Of the Illinois on the Missouri side.
a perpetual Injunction was asked. In it's
answer, Illinois denied the contention of Mis-
souri,. alleging that with three hundred thousand
cubic feet of pure water from Lake Michigan
being turned into the channel every minute the
waters Of the Mississippi were vastly inn
proved notwithstanding the presence Of the
sewage matter at the head Of the drainage sys-
tenn The case has been before the court for
several years. Much time consumed in TAX
ing testimony. and with one exception the rec
ord is the most voluminous ever filed

CITY BONDS HELD UP.
Injunction Against -Four Per Cents
Not Thought Serious.

A temporary Injunction restraining Controller
Metz from delivering the 100000 per cent bonds
sold last Thursday served on the Controller

A Seitz. Brooklyn taxpayer The injunction
granted by Justice Burr and is returnable to-nor-
The plaintiff Seitz. alleged that the contemplated
sale was fraudulent and wastefuI OF the city's
funds, that in selling the bonds az per cent the
rate Of interest was wasteful and wholly unneces-
sary and would infict loss of $4,000 on the
city. because there was no doubt that the stock
could have been sold at previous sales at 3l7
per cent interest rate
Assistant Corporation Counsel George l. Sterling
appeared for the city and objected TO the granting
of the writ. When Mr.. Sterling was seen last night
he said:

a brief covering this particular point. I have no
doubt that he viii vacate the injunction on

Controller Metz treated the injunction lightly. He

that he had doubt that the court would decide
that Mr.. Seitz had good grounds for his action

METZ FOR TAX REFORM.
Controller Would Abolish Rebates
and SAFE City Millions.

Like each Of his predecessors for the last
twenty years, Controller Metz has scheme for
reforming the manner of collecting the taxes
and rebating for early payments. He gave out
this statement yesterday:
have examined into the present methods of
collecting taxes and the question Of rebates and
interest, and have determined to make an effort
away from the penalty pay in seeking 10 in
duce taxpayers 10 pay taxes in the early part
of October. when they actually become due.
This has become expensive, and during the last
four years has cost the city $1,7S6,S49 II in re-
bates, against which we shall in the same period
have collected only about sS50,000 in interest.
Ny proposition is 10 allow no rebates and 10
alter the periods of interest penalties on taxes.
Under the present law rebates allowed dur
ing the whole month of October; taxes are col
lected fiat during November with penalty OF
/ per cent during December and of per cent
from January I. This, believe, should be done
away with. ! believe that taxes should be fat
during October. that in November we should i'm
pose a penalty Of per cent and Of : per cent
from December I.
Through the unscientifc and uneconomical
methods of collecting taxes at the close of the
wear instead of at the beginning, the city not only
has to pay interest upon money which ii must
OF the year. but, to prevent those ten months
from becoming eleven months offers an induce-
ment in the way of a rebate 10 the taxpayer
who will pay his taxes when they are actually
due II IS not the small average taxpayer
who has the benefit Of these rebates, which &C
crue almost entirely TO large landed estates and
corporatfons, 10 which the small fraction OF
rebate appeals through the large amount OF the
tax bills I trust that may be able to have
the law amended during the present session OF
the legislature. I feel sure that no individual
taxpayer will notice any appreciable difference,
nor will he postpone one day the payment of his
tax bill. II will also greatly facilitate the col
lection of taxes by relieving the Receiver OF
Taxes of tremendous strain at the first OF
