holding back, waiting to see what his
neighbor is going to do. With the ex-
ception of hotels like the Fairmount
and st. Francis and some new build
ings, most of the structures now being
erected are more or less temporary
ones"
He says that the most serious
problem which now confronts the re-
lief committee in San Francisco is the
housing problem. Those in charge of
the relief work have formed themselves
into corporation, the better to ad-
minister the funds in their charge.
The plans of the committee for the
future include the erection of a NUM-
cipal building for the care of the
aged and infirm, and the expenditure
of about $150,OO0 for the erection of
municipal barracks for the housing of
persons still living in tents. These
people are being housed gradually, and
by winter, when the tents will be worn
out, it is hoped to have them all under
roofs.
Half million dollars has been set
aside to aid working people who owned
small houses to rebuild them The
money from this fund is used to make
the last payment to the builder erect
ing the house, and the amount ranges
from 5000 to $500.

JEWISH NEW YEAR.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
New York. Sept. 19.-The setting of
the sun this evening ushers in the
Jewish new year 5667. 1t is feast of
marked significance in the religious
calendar of the Jews and is observed
by reformed and orthodox alike, ex-
cept that the former observe one and
the latter two days. In all congrega-
tions the ancient ceremony of blowing
the shofar. or rams horn, is still used.
In the orthodox congregations, which
cling most tenaciously to the old-time
ritual, one of the customs is for the
men to appear in the temples wearing
shrouds to typify the significance of
the day as reminder of death.
1t matters not how distant any Jew
has kept himself from his co-religion-
lists, on New Years day and the holy
day that follows he is found in the
synagogue. For that reason it is i'm
possible to accommodate the large
number that desire to attend services,
and therefore in many sections of the
metropolis, and particularly on the
lower East Side. scores of public halls
are secured for the services. During
the holy days money is collected for
charitable institutions and organiza-
tiOnS.

Important Rate Decision

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Washington, Sept. 19.-In an opinion
rendered Sept. Is. but made public
Tuesday afternoon, the interstate COM
merce commission takes important ac-
ton in constituting the application of
the new railway law and providing
general rules applying to joint tariff
rates on new lines and to commuta-
ton. mileage and excursion rates.
The decision in full is as follows:
The interstate commerce commits
sion, in answer to numerous inquir-
les from railroad officials and other in
terested persons and for the purpose
of giving administrative construction
to certain sections of the amended act
to regulate commerce which became
effecteive on the 2Sth of August, 1906,
announces the following rulings:
Payment for transportation-Not
ing but money can be lawfully receiv-
ed or accepted in payment for trans
portation subject to the act, whether
of passengers or property. or for any
service in connection Herewith, it be-
ing the opinion of the commission that
the prohibition against charging or
collecting greater or less or differ
ent compensation than the established
rates in effect at the time, precludes
the acceptance of services, property or
other payment in lieu of the amount
of money specified in the published
schedules.

manent policy. Strictly excursion
rates, however, covering a named and
limited period, are of different char
acter in this regard, and may properly
be established on much shorter no
tice.
ITO avoid the necessity for special
application in cases of this kind. the
commission has made general order
fixing the following named time of
notice of round trip excursion rates,
and carriers may govern themselves
accordingly:
Rates for an excursion limited to
a designated period of not more than
three days may be- established, without
further notice upon posting a tariff
one day in advance in two public and
conspicuous places in the waiting
room of each station where tickets
for such excursions are sold, and mail
ing copy thereof to the commission.
Rates for an excursion limited to
a designated period of more than three
days and no more than 30 days may
be established upon a notice of three
days in place of thirty days notice
otherwise required by the amended
sixth section.
Rates for an excursion limited to
a designated period exceeding thirty
days will require the statutory notice
unless shorter time is allowed in spec
ial cases by the commission"

'FR|SC0's OUTLOOK
Rebuilding Delayed by Laxity
of Insurance Companies
Adjusting Claims.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Washington. d. c.. Sept 19.-Delay
or refusal of insurance companies to
pay their losses in the San Franciso
disaster is greatly responsible for the
lack of progress toward the rebuilding
of that city, according to DR.. Edward
T. Devine, of New York. who was sent
to the stricken city by Secretary Taft,
as president of the National Red Cross.
to superintend the relief work of that
society there. DR.. Devine has conclud-
ed his work in San Francisco and re-
turned east.
Dr. Devine arrived on the scene the
latter part of April, within five days
after the disaster occurred and has
stuck faithfully to his post ever since,
with the exception of two flying trips
he made to Washington for consultation
with the Red Cross officials there. The
work was hard, told on him. and it was
with feeling of great relief that he
relinquished his duties.
DR.. Devine expressed confidence in
the belief that San Francisco will be
herself again. not so soon as was at
first expected, but still in a remark
ably short time. It's gaint undertake

Golden Gate City. but the building Of

POPE'S CHOIR ORDER
IS RJG/DLY FOLLOWED

in line and st. Stephens, Twenty-fifth
and Pennsylvania avenue, early last
year organized a male choir. The I'M
maculate Conception church, Eighth
and N streets, also has boys choir,
but has not made exclusive use of its
services.
These are believed to be the only
churches in Washington which have
so far been able to follow the Pope's
orders and the question now presents
itself as to just what will be done.
The regular winter schedule in the
Catholic churches will be resumed the
first Sunday in October. In st. Step
hens, st. Matthew's, st. Peters st.
Joseph's, the Holy Comforter, st.
AIMS, Tenleytown; the Holy Name,
and Dominic's there are women Or
ganists. With the exception of the
first named church the choirs are made
up of mixed voices.
While all the churches assert their
intention of putting the new order into
execution as soon as possible, It looks
very much as II Washington will be
one of the last cities in the country to
fall into line.

Near Dover, Okla, Is One of
Ruin Loss of Life Now
Learned to Have Been Not
So Heavy as First Reported.
SOME OF THE DEAD, THOUGH,
FloATED DOWN THE RIVER
One Man Recovered From Drift
wood 20 Miles From Scene
of Accident.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Dover, Okla, Sept. 19.-At daylight
today, at the scene of the Rock Island
wreck at Cimarron river, more definite
facts concerning the casualties than
those given out last night were avail
able. Up to this morning the known
dead numbered two. While a number
of persons are still missing, it is be-
lieved that many will be heard from
during the day. Two of the sixteen
known injured may die.
Searchers with torches worked all
night to rescue as many possible VIC
Tins that might still be in the sub
merged cars. Early today the search
was renewed here, while for distance
of 20 miles down stream, parties were
on the lookout for victims. 1t was
known that several of those who es-
capped from the wreckage had drifted
H.,
them having been seen as far as Is
miles distant from Dover.
From one point bodies were reported
as floating by, but this was not veri-
fled. During the night the river fell
almost as rapidly as it had risen and
early today the work of removing the
submerged cars from the stream was
begun.
Contrary to yesterdays reports, it
developed today that twenty persons
who were known to have occupied
the smoker, are unaccounted for. Eff
forts are being made to locate the
smoker, which is at point 110 yards
below the site of the bridge.

Notice of changes in rates-Where
two or more connecting carriers es-
tablish joint rate which is less or
greater than the sum Of their local
rates, such joint rate is q change of
rates and requires notice of thirty
days. In such case the joint rate
when duly established and in force
becomes the only lawful rate for trans
pOrtation.
New roads-On new lines of road,
including branches and extensions Of
existing roads individual rates may be
established in the first instance and
also joint rates to and from points on
such new line, without notice, on post

the same with the commission.
Round trip excursion rates-It is
the opinion of the commission that
the provisions of the amended sixth
section in respect Of the publisher,
filing. and posting of tariffs, apply to
the mileage, excursion and commuta-
ton rates authorized by the 22nd Sec
ton. Such a rate when first estab-

which requires a notice of 80 days.
No reason appears why this notice
