SOME DISPUTE OCCURS
ABOUT CLEARING DEBRIS.

When are the immense piles of debris
III the burnt district to be removed?
The Southern Pacific men say that
they have their temporary tracks down
on many of the business streets and
will furnish the cars and haul away
free all of the debris on the streets pro-
vided the Board OF Public Works at
tends to the loading of the cars
Property owners say that they can
do little or nothing toward cleaning
their lots until the extensive piles of
debris on both sides of the streets in
the downtown burnt area are hauled
away.
It develops that no place has yet
been decided upon where to dump the
debris. Owing to the fact that the tun-
nels on the bay shore cutoff of the
Southern Pacific are not yet completed,
that company can not use the debris
for filling-in purposes across several
arms of the bay between the Potrero
district and San Bruno.
They seem to think that the Board
of Public Works should select or find
place for dumping the debris
The Southern Pacific Company has
it's tracks ready and will haul away
free all the debris in the streets If the
Board of Public Works will see to the
loading of the cars said Mr.. Sproule
yesterday. What the finances of the
board are which might enable it to hire
a large force of men for that work [

ago that we were ready to proceed
81 presume the question of cleaning
sites is one for the insurance companies
and the property owners to confer
about. Once they settle their affairs,
it then rests with the property owners

of masses of iron and steel of destroyed
buildings and other debris on their
sites Derricks viii have to be erected
to handle those large steel beams

of Public Works, was asked yesterday

PROPERTY OWNERS OBJECT
TO BURNHAM SCHEMES.

While the Burnham plans committee,
headed by the noted architect from
Chicago, was in the midst of its plans
regarding the widening and extending
of streets throughout the commercial
center of the city yesterday, II. H.
Taylor, representing the North Cen
trail Improvement Association, and A.
A. Moore, Jr., representing the down
town business men, appeared on the
scene to make strong protest against
the stress laid on Identification prob
lens and the ignoring of the practical
needs of business. Both argued that
the present plans of the committee
would work hardships on the down
town center and cut away valuable
holdings, thus Gripping trade. They
wanted to know when building permits
would be ready, as millions of dollars
lie idly by, the owners of which are
refusing to invest till some plans are
made known, they said
The committee did not give the COM
mercial men any definite answer. It
explained the situation as it stands at
the present time and urged the anxious
business men to have patience till such
time as the plans can be drawn up and
passed upon by the committee of forty
and also the Board of Supervisors and
Board of Public Works.

TOO MUCH LAND WOULD
BE WASTED IN STREETS.

Taylor and Moore were present
throughout the session and listened
with eagerness while the members
talked about extending Montgomery
avenue TO the ferry, widening Mont
gomery street and making boulevards
out of Pacific and Washington streets
Their faces expressed their feelings as
the committee recommended the confs-
cation of millions of dollars worth of
property, but they kept silent till their
turns came to speak.
Taylor was the first to make himself
heard. He informed the committee
bluntly that he and the capitalists he
represented are against the extending
of Montgomery avenue to the ferry
for the reason that it would mean ruin
alton in that district for the property
owners, many of whom would abandon
their building plans altogether and in
vest their money elsewhere.
He suggested instead that Washing
ton street be widened from Kearney
street to the ferry. This he claimed
would be better for both the city and
the commercial interests. He said that
one of his clierts is waiting to spend
S. 100000 on a building in that local
ity and would commence its erection
within the next twenty-four hours if
some idea could be obtained as to what
the committee proposed to do.
Taylor was followed by Moore. In a
brief speech the latter summed up the
opposition made by those interests to
the proposed widening of certain
streets and the cutting up of others.
He said that the property owners APP
preciated the efforts of the committee,
but at the same time they believe that
there is too much dissection planned.

SHARoNS WILL REBUILD
PALACE, BUT BETTER.

The local directors of the Sharon
j Estate Company are anxiously awaitin.
the arrival of Fred Sharon and Mr.
/ Wright, representatives of Lady He's
keith, who are now on their way from
Europe, so that some decision regard
ing the rebuilding of the Palace Hote
may be arrived at without loss of time
Sharon and Wright are expected IL
reach the city on May 25th. 1t is not
known as yet whether Senator New
lands will come from the East to at
tend the conference of the Sharon
heirs
The owners of the Palace are under
stood to be of one mind in regard tic
the rebuilding of the big caravansary
and favor the erection of magnificent
modern structure that will not be out
classed by any hotel in the world
There are many matters to be consId-
cred, however, before any plan can be
decided upon. 1t can be said, however,
that the new Palace Hotel will cover
the entire site of the old structure and
will be eight or ten stories in height.
Many of the general agents of trans
continental and Eastern lines, whose
offices helped to form what had come
to be widely known as "railroad
row. have received assurances from
Colonel John G. kirkpatrick, managing
director of the estate, that they can
have their old locations in the new
building. The Sharon people, it is said,
appreciate the advantage, from an adj
vertising standpoint, that comes
from having ticket offices in the build
ing.
The ruins of the Palace Hotel pre-
sent one of the most pathetic pictures
to be found anywhere in the burned
district. Not vestige of anything in
fammable remains within the bare
brick walls of the structure, and the
beautiful Palm garden that had become
known as one of the hotel IS chief at
fractions and helped to advertise the
hotel all over the world is mere ash
pile, surrounded by bare brick walls. |
The brick walls stood the fire most adj |
but it is probable that all the |
walls will have to be RACED.

SALOON MEN WANT
TO OPEN THEIR PLACES.

The Board of Police Commissioners
discussed yesterday a proposition pre-
scented by the saloon men themselves
to make the price of liquor licenses
S400 a year and also a proposition for
early opening. A majority of the Com
missioners appeared to favor the $500
license idea, Drinkhouse and Poheim
expressing themselves definitely for
the high rate although O'Grady re-
fused to commit himself TO any ex-
preston One effect of the high license
would be TO drive the bar attached to
the corner grocery out of existence.
Speaking of that phase of the ques-
ton yesterday, Chief Oman expressed
himself as opposed to the combination
bar and grocery, declaring that sa-
looms and grocery stores should be
kept separate.
Theodore Lunstedt, appearing on be-
half of the Liquor Dealers Association,
brought the matter formally to the at
tention of the Police Commissioners at
their meeting at Lowell High School
yesterday afternoon. The matter of
opening the saloons was also presented
by Lunstedt. Lunstedt said he recog-
nized that the matter of establishing
the license rate was in the hands of
the Supervisors and asked only that
the Commission indorse the recon-
No official action was taken by. the
Commissioners on either request, but
the different Commissioners expressed
their personal views Informally during
the discussions.
In the matter of a $500 rate for
saloon licenses Chairman Poheim said
that while the matter of fixing the |
rate would be in the hands of the |
supervisors, his opinion was that it |
vas very fair rate. He thought $500 |
would be prohibitory. Commissioner
also expressed himself |
avorabIy on the $4o0 rate, and was in
avor of a motion of Endorsement from
he Board. O'Grady thought such ac-
ion would be premature, in view of the
unsettled conditions, and no
Lction was taken on the motion.
Considerable discussion was had

BURNHAM SAYS CITY
/ MUST LOOK TO FUTURE

On the general subject of the objec-
tions that were raised to widening
streets on the ground of expense, D. FL.
Burnham said. addressing the commit
tee:
my Judgment is that if you at
tempt to do a very meager thing you
viii not carry it, because it will not
appeal to men of FAIRS seeing vision. l
am talking on the commercial aspect of
it. Look at Paris. Such improvements
bring people to the town.
elf the work is done right you can
put San Francisco far ahead of all
other American cities as place where
men with money will want to come and
live.
81 do not know whether you can get
the money, but I do know that large
sums can be obtained on future which
is well established certainty. That
certainty is that the town will be the
most convenient and the pleasantest
accessible in America.

prosper. 1t is so in Paris
