WASHINGTON. May 1, 1905.
James D. Phelan, Chairman, San
Francisco: You and your COMMITTEES
evidently misconceive the nature and
legal limitations OF the Congressional
aid and do not understand the facts
Instantly on receipt OF General Fun
ston's telegram of the extent Of the
disaster and the pressing need Of food
and shelter for more than 100.O peo-
pie, although was without lawful au-
thority to do 50, ordered sent to San
Francisco rations costing 500, 900, tent

more than a million dollars, and medi-
cal stores costing $50. to be used
and distributed for the relief OF the
sufferers.
THE transportation of these supplies
cost more than s150,0OO I made this
order anticipating that Congress would
ratify my action. Congress did so, by
joint resolution. authorizing me to fur
nish subsistence. quartermaster and
medical stores for the relief OF the suf-
ferers and appropriated $1,000. 900 for
these purposes TO be used in my discre-

that expense had been incurred for the

commended the appropriation OF 81. SOC. 900

of the War Department. I have no
power or legal authority to turn over
the money appropriated by Congress
by your committee to be expended by
you or to expend for any but the spe-

sionaI resolutions. Should you think
that the supply OF rations or quarter

ought TO be increased, / shall be glad
TO direct the purchase and forwarding

My discretion Is to be exercised only

SESSION
IS PERAT|vE
Such Is Judgment
of the General
Committee.

An extra session of the Legislature
at the earliest time possible is in the
Judgment of the general committee I'M
nerativelv demanded. Views of Mayor
Schmitz. James D. Phe1an, Gavin NC
Nab. John F. Davis. W. II. Metson,
A. Ruef. Charles S. Wheeler ano
others were tersely expressed IN the
session of the committee yesterday
Positive action of some kind will be
taken.
The committee to be named py the
Mayor will meet all tomorrow morn
ing, receive reports and then call upon
Governor Pardee. One Of the most I'M
portant things that will be asked OF
the LEGISLATURE will be the extension
of leases from fifty TO ninety-nlne
years. It is expected that this Will
give the smaller landowners chance
TO recoup their lost fortunes in a meas
ure. AS all the committees are in favor
Of this action it will probably be made
G. strong issue. The committees Will
also look over the charter Of the city
and arrange it so that nothing IN It's
statutes may interfere with the work
OF the Legislature.
II seems that Governor Pardee can
not be pressed to hasty action. He
wants to know before the call for the
extra session is issued something def
mite as to the subjects on which the
lawmakers will be called upon to legis-
late John e. Davis, who Is regarded
90
trusted advisers, has been Of late at
tending the sessions Of the committee
at Franklin Hall. He said to the citi-
zens yesterday that the Governor did
not want an abortive session. Judge
Davis suggested that the charter of
San Francisco should be carefully
scanned to ascertain wherein legisla-
tion now proposed would conflict with
existing provisions of the charter.
Mayor Schmitz appreciates the grav-
ity Of the situation. He will not be
pressed into undue haste in demanding
that the Legislature shall do one thing
or another He desires that the re-
quirements of the metropolis in this
emergency should be reviewed by cap
able men. He announced a purpose
to name a committee Of forty men
who would comprise a subcommittee
on extra session.
The judicial department Of the gov
ernment has already taken steps to ad-
wise the Governor as to the subjects
which should be embraced In the call.
1t is presumed that the subcommittee
will work in harmony with the law
yers. Whatever goes to the Governor
as the judgment of San Francisco will
go in writing, approved by the Board
Of Supervisors and the advisory COM
mittee of forty.
Merchants and business men of the
interior are as deeply concerned In the
proposed extra session as the citizens of
San Francisco. In Fresno, Stockton.
Sacramento and other points the judg-
mcnt prevails that the extra session
should be convened at an early date.

yesterday that all time restrictions as

Until electric lighting can be re-

been assured, will be before this week
expires, 1t would be well for the peo-

illuminating purposes.

Gradually the business of conduct
ing public affairs will be transferred
to the several departments of the mu-
nicipality.
Many members of the committee
seem to apprehend that Chief Engineer
Sehussler has not given to the public
sufficient information concerning the
pipe connections between the great
storage reservoir in San Mateo and the
San Francisco mains. There was a
suggestion from the Fire Departments
acting chief yesterday that an armed
soldier be sent down the line to Crys-
tai Springs reservoir along with Alex
ander George, water expert of the Fire
Department. The Mayor did not ap-
prove of such drastic measures, but
suggested that Mr.. Dillman, chairman
of the water committee, should accom-
pany the expert. The Mayors sug-
gestion was accepted and Mr. Dilman
started at once for San Mateo with the
expert and without military escort.
There is a promise to the effect that
water for the high districts of San
Francisco, such as Preside Heights,
will be supplied within the next four
days.
Agitation In favor Of the erection Of
q Federal building for use of all de-
partments Of the United States Gov
eminent IN San Francisco was begun
yesterday. Julius Kahn is to wire the
California Congressional delegation on
the subject. The duty of framing the
telegram was delegated to Mayor
Schmitz and Rufus Jennings.
Trouble exists and there Is trouble
ahead IN connection with the handling
OF the Chinese. The secretary Of the
Chinese legation Is here from WASH
ington. According to DR.. Filbern, thu
secretary is not In a happy frame Of
mind over the treatment accorded TO
his countrymen. The subject elected
general discussion at the committee
meeting yesterday. The fact was incl
dentally disclosed that Seattle and
Portland with a view Of securing ORR
entail commerce was asking the Chi
nese to leave California.
This forenoon there will be a con-
ference at 1881 Fillmore street to see
what can be done to promote the COM
fort OF homeless Chinese. Mr.. Ruef
said the subject would be treated IN
broad minded humane manner and
that the bearing also of commerce with
the Orient would be considered. The
Chinese situation was aggravated by
their removal from Fort Mason to the
golf links Of the Presidio and their sub
sequent hasty removal from the links
to Fort Point.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and hat is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con,
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus.
tachian tube. When this tube is in.
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are eau
ed by catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give one hundred dollars for
any case of deafness Caused by ca
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

\ number of oma suffragists in
England have been trying to show for
Some time how disgusting they can be
when they endeavor to be, and they
have succeeded to the utmost of their
~endeavor. During the recent cam.
paign they were shrieking up and down
the land, and since the liberal success
there has been no living with them.
They have created a riot in the gallery
of the house of commons and the other
day they started to mob Mr.. Asquith
while he was speaking to his constitu.
ents. We read hat they fought like
tigers. and the general ~ferocity of their
natures would do justice to any beast
that lives in the jungle.
We have never doubted that sooner
or later woman suffrage would be a
reality in every state in Christendom.
Women have always been successful
in getting their hearts desires, and if
women generally wanted the suffrage,
man would never withholditf rom them.
The opposition Of n majority of men
is due to a belief that women them.

MAN WAS
EN- EOR

Fate and a similarity of names
played a strange trick on William R.
Torbett of Saratoga, Wyo., when he
left Denver last week and returned
home, says the Denver Post. When he
got off the train a crowd of his friends
surrounded him and showered con,
gratulations on his puzzled head. II
appears that the people of Saratoga
read an announcement of the marriage
of William r. Torbett and Miss Con
stance Anderson in the Post, ana
thought that their home town had
secured another nest. But investiga.
ton revealed the fact that Torbett OF
Saratoga was not one of the mating
birds, and he is now looking for the
man bearing his name, who was MAJ
ried in Denver last Saturday.

selves, with a few exceptions, are not
in favor OF receiving the ballot, and to
force 1t upon them seems to the aver
age man the height of ungallantry.
That the preponderattng majority of
women do not want the ballot is evil
dent from the fact that so few sign the
petitions that go to the different legis-
]latures year after year praying for the
bestowal of the suffrage, while anti
woman suffrage leagues, organized
among the women themselves, vie in
their intensity of effort with the league
formed for promoting the cause of wo
man suffrage.
Matters are not different in England.
When the English INT want the
ballot they will get the ballot. But on
ly n few of them desire 1t. And judg-
ing from their recent antics, n is led
to believe that the women of England
who want the ballot most are the wo-
men who are least fitted to exercise the
right of suffrage. %Shrieking sister
hoods always defeat themselves just
as shrieking brotherhoods do. The wo.
men who create riots are not quite the
people a nation desires to entrust with
the creation of the laws.
For m suffrag:sts as a whole We
have always entertained Il profound re
spect. Such women as Frances
Wright, Lucy Stone. Elizabeth Cady
Stanton, Susan b. Anthony, Margaret
Fuller and Julia Ward Howe were, and
are. an honor to humanity, and to keep
such from voting is to rob a nation OF
q class of high-minded voters who
would exercise the right of suffrage
more intelligently than 90 per cent OF
the men do, nevertheless, so long as
the vast majority of women are op.
posed, or, at best, Indifferent, men are
not to be blamed. 1t is not right tc
prevent an intelligent oma from vot,
ing while so many ignorant men are
allowed to vote, and it is almost crimi'
nal to prevent the superior woman, but
this is only one out of a host of injus-
tees from which the world is suffering
and will, no doubt, long continue to suf,
fer. Perhaps it is in fact one of the
smallest of these injustices, for a sin.

man is forbidden to agitate in behalf
