HELP FOR THE CALIFoRNIANS
Secretary shaw TRcitly Agrees to
Plan TO Lend Money to
Banks.

WASHINGTON, June 1s. A tacit
agreement was reached today by the pres
ident, Secretary Shaw and the delegation
of representative citizens of San Fran
cisco by which substantial aid will be
given San Francisco by the government.
1t is proposed the United States deposit
with the San Francisco banks $12,00O,00
of the government money with bonds of
the city as security for the deposit, the
money to remain with the banks until
such time as the government shall call
for It. This may not be for a number of
years. so that the banks have practical
assurance that they may retain the de-
posits for such a period as will be of
value in the reconstruction of the city.
Under the law the secretary of the
treasury has authority to deposit govern
ment funds in this Way. He can not of
course, bind his SUCCESSOR to leave the
money on deposit. b6t he himself may
leave 1t until 1t is needed by the govern
ment. 1t is proposed in California to or
ganize a corporation with a capital of
several million dollars composed of prom
inent and influential men throughout the
state of California and other states and
to issue bonds to guarantee the govern
ment against loss through the banks.
Other plans have been suggested for
the raising of money to enable the people
of San Francisco TO rebuild their homes
and business houses. but thus far nothing
has been proposed that will meet the ideas
of congress.
Former Governor Franklin II. Lane and
Judge w. W. Morrow of San Francisco,
headed the San Francisco delegation which
called on President Roosevelt today. They
told him that il was important that the
banks should have assurance that the
money deposited with them could remain
there several years.

F0NTANELLES FEAR ORDER
Braves of the wiEwnm Dread Eject
of Rotation Under COmpuIsiOn
from the Court.

The Fontanelle governors held a pro-
longed session Tuesday night, the seance
being exclusively executive with incidental
accessories Of claret and cigars The ques-
tion Of the forthcoming primaries was dis
cussed, but no definite conclusion could be
reached as to the most effective method
for capturing the entire delegation for the
Fontanelles preferred candidate for SEN
ator. 1t was conceded that the Rosewater
delegation had a Ions start in the game,
and with the plan now pursued by the
Rosewater committee in keeping the names
of the delegation before the public. the
courts order is likely yet 70 prove BOOM
erang against the sponsors Of the rotation
method Of placing the ticket.
The project of resuscitation the Municipal
Record with the ostensibie purpose OF
familiarizing the public with the Fontan-
ellie ticket was discussed, but some doubts
were expressed as to the expediency Of
such a move, owing to the fact that the
Municipal Record endorsement of ticket
might invite too active hostility and give
the voters too strong a hunch against a
ticket they might want to defeat. The mat
ter was left open until the next secret
meeting OF the governors, when ii lie
thought that some plan may be incubated
that will secure the election of at least
part Of the Fontenelle delegation, The har-
mony that prevailed at the meeting was Of
the strained variety and great quantities
OF claret were quaffed as a substitute for
oil to quiet the threatening storm.
The general consensus of opinion among
the more conservative members was that
In insisting upon the rotation feature OF
the delegate ticket a serious mistake has
been made, and that instead of helping
the Fontanelle delegation means its certain
defeat There was a suppressed feeling
Of unrest and uncertainty all through the
meeting. Nothing was accomplished other
than the realization of the fact, that the
Fontanelles are hard against it, and with
the desertion from it's ranks of many
hitherto faithful there is very little COM
fort In the future. One of the attendants
at the meeting volunteered the observation
that: The serious mistake we have made
is in getting too much World-Herald into
the Fontanelle delegation. It looks too
much as II we were trying to purchase
favor with the World-Herald. and that the
Fontanelles were simply auxiliaries to the
father-in-law aggregation"
