COMMITTEES DISCHARGED.
State Troops are Being Withdrawn
 from San Franciac0.

San Francisco, May 4.-With the in- creasing number of daily dismissals of its subcommittee, the general muni- cipal committee will doubtless soon pass out of existence and the direction of the affairs of the city will be re- stored to the regularly constituted offi- cials.
 When the general committee finally ad1ourns. there will remain of the vari- ous organizations that were formed immediately after the disaster only the committee on reconstruction and the finance committee.
 The force of State militia on duty here is being gradually diminished and those of the regular soldiers who are not engaged in assisting In relief work are doing simple patrol duty. There has been no perceptible diminution in the number of persons applying for free transportation to points outside of the city and State and despite meas ures taken to prevent unworthy per- sons from proiting by the generosity of the railroad. 1t Is believed that this privilege has been abused.
 A prominent passenger agent of one of the large roads said today that In consequence 1t Is likely that the giv ing of free transportation to women and children. and of half rate to cer- tain classes of men. may be stopped at any time. The tickets thus far issued require that the holders must start for their destination before tomorrow night.
 The San Francisco clearing house today received a report from its execu- tive committee which was adopted A portion of the report read as follows:
 The committee feels that the business interests, as such. do not need charity to aid them In rebuilding the city. With $150. 1000. .0O0 due from the insurance companies, the banks in a strong con- dition. bountiful harvests promised in the State and general underlying bus mess, sound further financial help should be looked for only on strictly business principles. In other words, since the Insurance indemnity will largely replace the destroyed build ings, as well as stock of merchandise. and our banks be able to meet general commercial requirements, individuals oi institutions who may come to find 1t necessary or expedient to apply to outside sources for loans should do so as occasion may arise on tn" usual ba> sis of good security. We cannot re- build in a day.
 We shall shortly have more money than can be immediately used. so 1t seems premature to assume that our resources will prove inadequate and especially taht the occasion demands the introduction of untried methods of finances which will be found to be H. legal or otherwise impracticable."

 various propositions for court re- view from the amendment proposed by Senator Bailey of Texas. to the re- stricted amendment offered by Senator Long of Kansas. The President. in beginning, indicated clearly and pos itively that he would be satisfied with the enactment of the Hepburn Dill as 1t was reported to the Senate from the Committee on Interstate Commerce. He pointed out, however, that some auVo- cates of railroad rate legislation-a5 sincere friends of the legislation as he himself was--believed 1t would be wise sn to amend the measure as to provide specifically for review of the decis- ion of the Interstate Commerce Com mission by the courts.
 TO this end the proposition evolved by Senator Allison of Iowa which now practically has been agreed upon py the Republicans of the Senate was or fered and after consideration was ac- cepted by the friends of the measure, including the President The President expressed the opinion that the effect of
 
 the Allison proposition already Is em- bodied in the Hepburn bill but 1t also in his opinion as he stated 1t today, that If there is the slightest doubt that the Hepburn bill. by implication does not carry the effect of the Allison prop osition 1t ought to be incorporated ex- plicitly in the measure before It's enact- ment into law.
 Personally he favors the narrower restriction of the amendment of Senator Long, but some other advocates of the legislation do not favor that amend ment. He made 1t clear that the judgment of the friends of the meas ure was so evenly balanced on the question of the Long amendment that 1t was scarcely worth while to make a contest for 1t, as. year or two of the laws operation would demonstrate clearly whether 1t would be necessary further to amend the act in the way proposed by Senator Long.
 The president assured his hearers that he and every advocate of the pending measure would be satisfied perfectly with the Hepburn bill with the amendment proposed by Senator Allison.
