PI<LEY FINDS MANUSCRIPT
AND HIS WIFE'S JEWEL 8

Frank Pixley's manuscript of the play
he left in the st. Francis Hotel safe passed
through the flames in good condition and
IN the course of time may follow the
Burgomaster, King Dodo and the Prince
of Pilsen in public favor. Mr. and Mrs.
Pixley, who arrived Sunday from Japan
have left for Los Angeles where they
will remain for a few weeks before going
home
In the st. Francis Hotel safe with the
libretto Of his unplayed musical comedy,
Pixley left his railroad tickets and Mrs
Pixley's jewelry. The jewelry was all
right and the railroad tickets unharmc1
but in connection with the tickets Pixiey
tells of one of the curious freaks of the
big fire.
'The tickets" said Pixley yesterday Y.
were in an envelope in a leather case
The leather case was in a cardboard box
The cardboard box was unharmed by the
fire. When I touched the leather case IL
fell to pieces and was ready to bid COOL
by to my tickets. The leather was little
more than ash and the envelope inside
was charred black. To my surprise how
ever, the tickets were in perfect condi-
tion nothing about their appearance indi-
eating that they had been subjected to
any unusual heat. / don't know the
scientific answer but I do know that I
was glad to find those tickets intact"
Five trunks filed with Pixley wardrobe
stored in the st. Francis basement when
the Pixleys went to Japan, were de-
stroyed by the fire.

WANT REBATE
FOR RENTERS
Realty Board Suggests a
Plan Favoring the
Tenants.
Recommends That Tax on
All Mortgages Be Re-
scinded.

The members OF the San Francisco
canvass, have approved OF two rec
ommendtions before the directors of
the board which have more than COM
mon interest at this time. The first
is that landlords shall be requested to
pay back TO tenants. pro rata, accord
ing to the time premises were actually
occupied or for the time that 1t was
possible to occupy them, rent moneys
that were paid in advance for the full
month OF April. 1905. The second is
that the committee considering mat
ters that should be included in a call
Tor special session of the California
Legislature shall be advised that 1t Is
the opinion of the real estate houses
OF the board that the mortgage tax on
real estate should be repealed. TO ac-
compliah this il viii be necessary to
amend the constitution Of the State
of California
President Howell of the Real Estate
Board explains the easons that are
back of these recommendations. He
said yesterday that 1t was but just.
considering the circumstances that de-
prived tenants OF the full use of prop
critics that they had paid rent for
the entire month of April, that there
should be rebate for that part of the
period that has elapsed since the
morning of April Is on premises that
were rendered unsafe by earthquake
or by fire. He hoped, and such was
the wish OF the real estate men in the
Real Estate Board, that the landlords
would adopt this view and that they
would refund proportionately. He con-
sidered the argument to be all one
way in that matter.
Regarding the proposition to amend
the constitution so that the bank or
other lender who accepts a mortgage
on real estate in California as secur-
ity for coin shall not pay a mortgge
tax Howell advanced the old argu-
ment that the borrower really pays
the tax on a mortgage because the
money lender puts on in interest
enough to cover the full face of the
tax, or about per cent The present
system, brought into vogue by the
constitution Howell said was, in the
opinion Of the realty brokers, both ac-
tive and associate members of the
San Francisco Real Estate Board, to
be cumbersome and of no advantage
to business.
The directors as members of the
board have approved of the two meas
ures mentioned so that their action
as board is considered to be certain
Of approval on formal vote.

PILOT TELLS HOW THE
EARTHQUAKE FELT AT SEA
soundIngs Taken On Bar Since Big Shake
Show No Change OF
Deprus,

Captain Mccullough, bar pilot, was
bringing the collier Wellington in from
sea the morning Of April Is, and gives
graphic description of how the earthquake
felt at sea-
we were of Diaglo in about fifty
fathoms of water" he said yesterday,
when the earthquake shock US up. The
Wellington shivered and shook like a
springless wagon on a corduroy road. The
sensation at first was as If the pig steam
er was jumping from one gravel bank to
another and 1t seemed as IL she would jar
her insides out. AS the shaking gained
in intensity ii seemed as If she was blow
ing out boiler tubes, an explosion every
second.
1T was a terrifying experience and
none Of the uncanniness was taken off by
the fact that the sea was smooth as glass
and showed not ripple when the shaking
was at its worst"
Since the earthquake the pilots have
made careful and extensive soundings on
the bar and so far have found no change
IN depths.

WAVES ROLL OVER LEVEES
ON ISLANDS DURING QUAKE
bitches on Reclaimed Lands Send Up
Sheets Of Water as II Squeezed by
Giant Hands.

Persons who were on the reclaimed
lands on the Sacramento and San Joaquin
rivers at the time of the earthquake say
that the levees were not damaged by the
temblor, though in some places the water
from the rivers washed over them. 1t
is believed that had the water been
higher. great damage would have been
done to levees.
At Isleton. on the San Joaquin. Chinese
shacks built on stills were driven down
into the soft peat land, water flying up
above them. The Chinese all escaped.
Across the tracts of reclaimed land
there are bitches, and it is said that when
the quake came the water squirted high
into the air from these, as If they had
been squeezed together by giant hands
The floating" land Of the islands
trembled violently.

Madison saloon. not far from where
John Hickey, an overland traveller to
Oklahoma, was sandbagged and killed
last week. The absence of the head,
it is believed. indicates that the man

Memorial Day Observance.

There was a preliminary meeting
yesterday Of representatives of the
various local posts of the Grand Army
of the Republic for the purpose of OBJ

Observing Memorial day. The idea
prevailed that exercises of a simple
character should be held at the Pre-
sidio National Cemetery. No definite
action was taken, however, 1t being
decided to make arrangements to that
end at meeting to be called for next
week
