DENIED BY SECRETARY TAFT
REPORT THAT. PHILIPPINE COM
"5S I.CL te} Is SO Fs3S q y
MISSIONERS HAVE SPECU-
t,st
ft a LATED ON LAND.

Washington, Jan. 23.-Secretary
Taft has sent to the senate state
ment in response to the resolution
calling upon him for information as
to whether army or navy officers in
the Philippines or members of the
Philippine commission owned land on
Dec. / last, or since then, whose value
would be affected by the new rail
roads proposed for the islands. Col
lateral information was sought also
by the resolution.
Secretary Taft's response gives the
entire commission, whose statements
are appended, clean bill of health
The three Filipino commissioners
were important land owners before
they were appointed to the commits
sion. They have not acquired land
since the holding Of office, however.
The secretary informed the senate
that to carry out the provisions of the
resolution with respect to army and
navy officers would require four
GERS would have to be examined EX-
animation of land transfer records
would be equally tedious.
Mr.. Taft suggests that the resolu-
tion be reframed SO as. to marrow the
scope of the inquiry
He adds the information that army
regulations forbid officers and soldiers
from using their positions for private
gain, even in transactions which 9TH
erwise would be legitimate.

ORE SHIPMENTS FOR 1906.
Owners Of Minnesota Mines Predic,
Record Breakinu Year.

Duluth, Jan. 23.-Thirty million
tons is the estimate of J. c. Gilchrist,
the well known vessel owner of Cleve-
land, of the iron movement from the
Lake Superior region for the year
1906. Mr.. Gilchrist, Captain John Nit
chell and F. w. Hart of Cleveland, e.
A. Oil, ]. w Rhodes, and Frank G.
Neal Of Pittsburg and A. Maitland of
Negaunee have just returned from a
trip to the Mesaba range iii special
train. They went over the Great
Northern and returned over the Dill
luth, Missabe and Northern. They
have been to the range to inspect the
Larue, Case, Hobart, Brunt Croxton
and Nassau mines, in which they are
interested to a large extent in some
and control absolute in others.
7 ut is going to be a good season and
1t will not be in the least surprising
If the amount is more than $4,000 600
tons" said Mr.. Gilchrist.
DO you believe that the maximum
size OF lake boats has been reached
in the G00-footers ?':was asked.
For the vessel man who has not
got his own mines to keep his boats
supplied with cargoes the 6O0-footers
are already too large The average
shippers cannot furnish them with
cargoes.
"The ordinary furnace does not care
to receive as much ore as the larger
class OF boats can deliver at cne time
They do not stock pile the ore at the
receiving docks now as they did in The
past years, but send it forward at
once"

Several Towns Will Maintain Separat.
Schools for Negroes.


Topeka, Kan, Jan. 23.-Kansas,
which has spent so much blood and
treasure in maintaining the equality Of
theSnegro before the law, is about to
draw the color line.
The recent decision Of the supreme
eourt sustaining the validity of the
/ law authorizing the board of education
to, maintain separate schools for white
and negro children in Kansas City
causes the negro leaders to apprehend
a general movement in the state to
Segregate the races. And their alarm
is not without cause, as plans for the
establishment OF separate schools have
already been made in two other cities
of the state, in consequence of which
the. negroes have called meeting to
protest against it.
Several months ago the board of
education at Coffeyville provided for
separate schools for white and negro
pupils. The schools in which the ne
gro pupils at Coffeyville are taught
have negro teachers.
A. case is pending in the supreme
court which will test the validity Of
the action of the Coffeyville board. A
negro pupil, who had been denied ad-
mission to a school set aside for
whites, has brought mandamus pro-
ceedings to compel the board to re-
scind it's order.

The Bank OF California has the de-
bris cleared from its former place of
business on California street. and the
carpenters are hard at work making
it fit for occupancy.
The Central Trust Company is
roughly fitting up the first floor OF its
former place OF business, corner of
Suffer and Montgomery streets. The
Savings and Loan Society, at another
corner of these thoroughfares, is doing
likewise.
The Mechanics Savings Bank, at
Bush and Montgomery. is erecting
booth OF wood, with its vaults for a
rear wall. The Scandinavia-Am
Bank has moved into the old Chronicle
building. Carpenters are at work in
what is left of the building of the Ger
man Savings Bank preparing a tenn
porary home for that institution. The
Mutual Savings, at Market and Geary,
has a large sign on its front announc-
ing its early resumption of business. y
While the San Francisco Savings
Union is considered in money circles
to be in exceptionally good financial
condition, it has not yet selected a
downtown headquarters. It's building
on California street was such total t
loss that the site will not be available /
for the purpose for some time. The /

widening streets plan for making
easy grades to reach California street
hill- The plan was attacked mainly on
the ground of expense, but as a com
promise it was suggested that the work
need not be put in execution at once,
but that if the city declared its inten-
tIon 10 go forward on those lines prop
arty-owners would not build on them
and the lines might be acquired when
municipal finances are more prosperous.
Another development of the session
was that Virgil Bogue declared that
the extension OF Potrero avenue to
junction with Folsom street would de-
stroy valuable terminal property of the
Western Pacific by cutting diagonally
across two blocks at Ninth and Bryant
streets.
Further it was announced that D. o.
Mills would oppose widening Mont
gomery street because it would de
crease the value of the Mills building
some $275,000. II. H. Taylor, Mills
agent, said that his client was only
waiting for the committee to conclude

expenditure of 100000 in restoring

BANKS ARE ALL BACK
AT THEIR OLD PLACES.

That the intersection of California
and Montgomery streets will continue
to be the center of the financial world
of San Francisco and of California is
assured.
In another week all, or nearly all.
the commercial banks will have taken
UP quarters in their old homes, and
some of. them are already so located.
This means that other kinds of bust
ness will follow the banks and San
Francisco will soon be rebuilt on the
same lines OF financial and commercial
subdivision that obtained before the
cataclysm.
The banks will not have the massive
homes they once occupied for some
months to come, but they have returned
to their old locations and built around
their invincible vaults shacks or camps
in which they will resume business
next Wednesday. Substantial struc-
lures viii be reared about these tenn
porary sheds. and soon the financial
institutions of San Francisco will be
better housed than ever before.
The Anglo California Bank is fur
nishing the interior OF the lower story
of its former home at Pine and San
some on much the same plan as it was
arranged prior to the fire.
