PANAMA CANAL BONDS.

Bids for the S3o,ooo,oOo issue of Panama canal
bonds will be received at the office of the Assistant
Treasurer of the United States in San Francisco
or before the Goth of the present month Tenders
for the bonds will also be received at eight other
large cities of the country and must be addressed
Bids for Panama canal bonds
This is the bond issue that created deal of dis
cussion in Eastern financial circles and for which
spectators at first showed disinclination to bid
The situation is reported to be changed and it is
figured that the issue will be readily taken up It
will be interesting to note what percentage of these
bonds San Francisco will acquire. There is re-
ported to be large surplus of money in the local
banks and it is assumed that there will be lively
demand for the bonds, unless investors have de
termined to draw back their money for investments
in San Francisco real estate and rehabilitated busi
ness concerns.
The bonds bear per cent interest per annun
payable quarterly, and will be dated August l. 1906
They will be issued in denominations of $50. 500
and $1,000 coupons and registered bonds up to
$4,000. They exempt from taxation, of course
and it will rest with the Government whether they
shall be redeemed after ten years, although the
issue calls for thrty-year term. No bids of less
than par will be entertained The interest rate Is
low, but the offering is otherwise attractive. It
will be interesting to watch how the investing pub
lie takes it.
The telephone war is likely to cause a ringing i'll
the ears.
John D. Rockefeller is reported living the simple
lite at Compelgne, France Business at 26 Wall
street is going on in the same old complex way.
Whatever opinions others may entertain of him.
members of the Police Commission are forced to
agree that Eugene f. Schmitz is the Mayor of San
francisco.
Commissioners O'Grady and Reagan are fast
learning the difference between the hammer and
the ak; the harm-nobody knock and the real thing
in decapitation
Reports in political quarters have it that Macs
tretti will not be called upon to surrender his head
This may be due to the fact that if Maestrett has
any graft at all it is on wheels and moves easily.

Wichita was the best paying city or the
