Day is One For Planning.

The second Sabbath since the fate
full 18th has served as q clearing house
in the affairs of the ruined city. While
the old time quietude was missing, the
day witnessed less of the excitement,
confusion and clamor of its immediate
predecessors and the community at
large has been able to make calmer
survey of the situation and to enter
into more intelligent and rational
preparation for the future
All possible work of municipal
character was suspended for the day
and the tired officials, who for nearly
two weeks have labored incessantly
with little sleep to bring semblance
of order out of chaotic conditions, took
advantage of the lull TO secure greatly
needed rest and to pay some attention
to pressing personal needs.
With the advent of the Sabbath came
an opportunity to review the tramend-
GUS ACCOMPLISHMENTS Of the last eleven
days, to provide remedies for defects
in the task Of judiciously caring for all

1t was by virtually such measures that

Gently it was by like legislation that

Everybody is willing to work and
to make necessary sacrifices If the
tools, as it were, are put into their
lands to reestablish the social, eco
omic and commercial conditions
which prevailed before the fire." said
FMr. Phelan "The idea in our minds
to somehow get large sums of mon
ey at low rates of interest, secured by
the improvements which we will erect.
Such moneys would be amply secured,
ami as in the case OF Chicago give us
a new city and give to everybody the
means of resuming their ordinary vo-
cations in life with the promise of an
abundant reward for their steadfast-
ness, within period Of less than five
years. There is no money in the COM
munity in circulation. The banks are
closed because they dare not open
their heated vaults and when they do
open them they will probably pay out
slowly, as they realize upon their as
sets. They expect next. week to cash
the checks of well-known customers
to the extent Of $500 each. That mea-
sure will help in small degree the
resumption of business"

San Francisco, April 30.-At meet
ing Sunday at which were present
James D. Phelan, chairman of the a
nance committee, and some noted law
yers and bankers plan was broached
Tor financing the city which it Is hoped
will meet the Endorsement of the gen
eral committee. It being estimated
that the city has suffered a. loss Of al
least $200,000,o00 by fire, it is conced
ed that there is not sufficient money
in San Francisco to reconstruct the
city and that the people here nust
look elsewhere for funds to rehabili
tate their destroyed fortunes.
Mr.. Phelan said that if the money
is borrowed throuh ordinary channels
the rate of interest will add a burden
to the necessarily increased taxation
that will be too heavy to bear. The
plan of Mr.. Phelan is to frame legisla
tion to present to congress asking the
United States to indorse the proposed
bonds Of San Francisco. With this
guarantee of the government the city
will be able to go into the financia
markets of the world and borrow the
needed money. at 2 or 21s per cent
