The relief officials who have charge
OF the distribution Of food and clothing
are anxious to see the doors OF the va
trious savings banks thrown open and
the money in their vaults made avail
able to their depositors.
The long lines of applicants for yslief
do not seem to thin out as the days go
by. On the contrary. they seam to
grow longer to the casual observer.
The officials give two reasons why
the lines continue OF such large pro-
portions. Ono Of these is that many
persons In moderate circumstances have
deposits in the savings banks, the
vaults Of which have not been opened.
One bank alone has 10000 depositors,
and the aggregate Of the larSest three
banks OF this character must run into
big figures.
When these persons are allowed to
draw on their little bank accounts It IL
expected they win disappear from the

George Osbourne OF the late Acazar
is giving away money at the ferry
depot. He started In two days ago
with $12o7 and SO far has got rid Of
but $s5. The s12o7 represents the gate
receipts at a baseball game played in
New York between the Fay Templeton

Railroad Company for the benefit Of
stage folk who vert IN want as the
result OF the recent calamity.
In the telegram transmitting tho
money Joseph Gottlob, NJ E Mayer,
NJ Meyerfeld, w. Il. Leshy and George
Osbourne were appointed a committee
to take charge Of the money. This
committee delegated to Joseph Gottlob
and George Osbourns the work OF dis
trfbution.

Osbourne said yesterday that there
was little destitution now IN the actor
colony. Most oil those In distress have
been cared for already.
"The best evidence of this" ne said,
''is that we have used only ss5 Of this

people who gave It want It distributed

become an expert outdoor stove build

many of his neighbors. Ali who have
benefited as the result Of his mechan-

Passenger Traffic Manager Fee said
when interviewed on the subject that
there was to be no 1et-up in the work
Of the Southern Pacific and related
lines in bringing people to California -
in fact, the work Is to be CARRIED on
more vigorously than ever. The State
needs additional population just as
it did before the late unpleasantness,
and 1t is Fees opinion that while tenn
porarily they may not find San Fran
cisco an agreeable stopping place, yet
there is absolutely no reason why they
should not come to California on the
usual pleasure trips or to create new
homes, and so far as business Is con-
cerned, take advantage Of the great
est opportunities in that line that
have ever been offered.
