Precautions Taken to Prevent Disorder
Regarded as Ample.

Paris, April 26.-The prefect of po-
lice, M. Pelin, this afternoon made re-
assuring reply to hundreds of letters
which anxious citizens had addressed
to the police. He said that all pre-

GOVERNOR PARDEE WRATHY|
Considers Request for MiIitia's With.
drawaI As Rejecting on that
Organization.

San Francisco, April 26.-What tt
do with the immense amount of money
that has been contributed to the re
lief of San Francisco's homeless was
the question that received earnest con
sideration today. Numerous inquiries
have come to the heads of the various
departments, civil and military, ali
asking for and by whom the money
would be expended. While complete
details of distributing and accounting
for the immense sums have not been
formulated plans have been thorough.
ly discussed in committee and may be
briefly stated as follows:
All expenditures will be authorized
by the finance committee of citizens
and the Red Cross. The members of
this committee are representative
bankers business men and jurists of
San Francisco and Doctor Devine of
the National Red Cross society. This
committee will audit all accounts and
make detailed report to the war de-
partment, where the final audit and
statement will be made.
At noon today the distribution of
food was formally turned over to the
United States army. Many of the
abuses that have been prevailing in
the giving out of supplies by the vari-
GUS relief organizations, each of which
has acted independently, will be dis
continued and direction of all stations
will be centralized in the depot of the
army quartermaster.
Governor Pardee today attended a
conference between General Greeley,
Mayor Schmitz, Doctor-Devine of the
Red Cross and members of the citizens
committee of fifty. Governor Pardee
brought up the proposed withdrawal
of the national guard from the city.
The governor lauded the militia and
said that he considered the request
reflection upon we'll organized and
highly efficient body of men. In fact,
he was so warm that he thought it
best not to make any further remarks.
Mayor Schmitz Immediately replied
that he and his committee had not
made any charges against the guard.
On the contrary, he had thanked the
governor for their services. He said
the object aimed at was to concen-
trate control of the city in the federal
troops and prevent misunderstanding
and conflict of orders.
Major General Greedy stated that so
far as he knew there was no conflict
of authority and that as a United
States army officer he could not as
sumo charge of the state militia. The
mayor was the head of the city and
every request made by him had been
followed, and he would continue to
recognize the authority of the mayor
in giving directions for the safety of
the people. Civil authority is super
ior to military, he said, and the mayor
was the only head he knew.
The state troops have not been with

Pfompt justice Meteo Out to Robber
Of Dead.
Denver, April z6.-Of the hundreds
of San Francisco refugees who reach
ed this city today a number received
medical treatment for broken bones,
burns and other injuries. Several
were taken to local hospitals.
Charles Smith, who was employed
in the circulation department of the
San Francisco Chronicle, said:
81 was in Mechanics Pavilion when
that place was used as hospital. The
doctors were about to operate on a
well dressed man, who lay unconscious
from an anaesthetic. In pulling off his
coat there dropped from his pocket
three fingers of women, with valuable
rings on them. They gave him time
to revive and called two soldiers. The
latter took him out, stood him against
the wall of the building, and shot
him.
c. L. Gooding of Norfolk, Va, said
he saw grocer and his wife shot by
regular soldiers because they charged
a dollar for loaf of bread.

of Rochester before an ecclesiastical
