WATCHING RETURNS
CROWDS syvARMED BETWEEN
THE vARIoU US PLACES WHERE
THE NEWS
WAS BEING RECEIVED LAST
NIGHT UNTIL AFTER MIDNIGHT.
QUIET ADDED INTEREST.

= : ~ -
The election returns began to come
last night at about q: 30 o'clock and
from that hour until after 4 a. M. a.
great crowd of men circulated between
the Tribune office, the Commercial
club and the Palladium Office, at which
points the returns were being re-
ceived.
The result in the city was a great
surprise to everybody as it was not
imagined there would be such scratch
ing of tickets as the returns showed:
the First and Second wards being par
ticularly noticeable for this kind Of
voting. The other wards gave. their
normal majorities for the republican,
ticket and the Fourth came to the.
front in most gallant style and may
have a deciding influence in the re-
suit on the legislative ticket if the
returns from the country continue to
come in SO badly mixed on this issue
B The vote in the city and county was
the lightest for many years, owing to
the fact that little or no work was
done by the republican candidates as
there was no opposition to the county
ticket. :, The day was an ideal one for
the farmer to hustle along his fall
work and doubtless many figured that
the republican candidates in state
and county had a cinch anyway, and
stayed at home rather than take the
time to go to the polls. Absolutely no
money was used by anyone in : the
campaign to pay workers at the polls
to get out the voters and there was a
general kick among those who
habitually expect and have heretofore
received money TO use on election day.
There was no drunk enness during the
day or evening and more orderly and
quiet election never. happened in Bis

PRESIDENT STATES
HIS ATTITUDE ON
THE RAILROAD BILL
Would Have Ali.
son Amendment
Incorporated.

WASHINGTON, May Elm view of
the publication regarding the Presi-
dents position on the question of
railroad rate legislation and the amend
ments proposed, an authoritative state
ment was issued at the White House
yesterday, defining the Presidents po-
sition. The statement follows:
The so-called Allison amendment, in
the Presidents judgment, simply states
affirmatively what the President be-
lieves is already contained in the Hep
burn bill; but, If there is the slightest
doubt as to its being thus already con-
tanned in the bill, the President would
insist on its being put in, because, un-
less it is therein contained, the bill un-
doubtedly would be void.
Therefore, as Incorporating the AL
lison amendment under no circum-
stances would do anything but good
and, as there is an honest doubt on the
part Of some sincere adherents Of the
bill whether 1t is or is not already, by
implication, contained In the bill, the
President is clearly Of the opinion that
the Allison amendment should be put
IN, and this without regard to whether
other amendments are or are not
adopted.
IF the Hepburn bill, therefore, passes
in this form. which Is practically the
exact form in which 1t passed the
House, it will be satisfactory to the
President, who from the beginning has
stated that the Hepburn bill itself
would be satisfactory. But the Presi-
dent would like it If. In addition to the
Allison amendment, the so-called Long
and Overnan amendments were adopt
ed. While the President regards these
amendments with favor and would like
TO see them adopted. he does not in the
least regard them as vital and feels
that the Hepburn bill would still be in
excellent shape even without them"

FILLMORE STREET
SHOULD Be MADE
MORE ATTRACTIVE
Plans Of Improvement Are
Discussed by Mer-
chants.
Will Ask City to Assist
in the Good
Work.

The merchants and property owners
on Fillmore street gathered yesterday
afternoon in the hall opposite the Turh-
street carbarn to discuss ways and
means for beautifying the now main
thoroughfare of the city. If the MI
nicipality does not improve the street,
then the merchants and landlords VIII
do SO themselves, If their plans prevail.
More than q hundred prominent mor-
chants and lessees of property were at
the meeting. They all seem to be OF
the opinion that Fillmore street Is des-
tined to be the business thoroughfaro
of the town for some time to come. ana
consequently they are anxious to see 1t
improved. The merchants and house
holders are anxious to have the strest
we'll paved from Halgnt street to
Broadway. They say four arc lighta
are needed on each block. They also
desire to have palm trees planted oil
along the line to lend beauty to the
street. and believe it should be we'll
sprinkled all day long.
A committee was appointed to walt
upon the Southern Pacific Company
with the idea OF having station erect
ed between Sixteenth and Twenty sixth
streets on Valencia, thus giving the
people better transportation facilities
and chance to connect with the cleo
trio cars without taking a roundabout
route.
It is also the intention Of the mer-
chants and owners Of property to lease
one OF the vacant lots between Meal
lister street and Broadway and trans
form 1t into q public park, with lawns
and flowers, and hire a band to give
concerts there on certain days aad
evenings Of the week. The merchants
think this would be a very good way
to attract trade.
Many Of the merchants gave their
views regarding stores, rents and other
features connected with the work that
is now going on. Nothing very definite
was agreed on and 1t is not likely that
any action will be taken till the conf
mittees appointed to wait upon the city
officials and the Southern Pacific COM
pany make their reports. Another
meeting will be called within the next
few days, when it Is expected that the
work Of Improvement will be outlined
and contracts let for beautifying the
busy thoroughfare.

THEIR old SITE
San Francisco Men Show

Future.
Two VereinS Are to
Occupy the Same
Hall.

The San Francisco Turn Verein. with
which will probably be merged the
Eintracht Verein, will be comfortably
housed at it's old location, S53 Turk
street, near Hyde. This was decided at
an enthusiastic meeting held yesterday
at 1922 Buchanan street.
A mass-meeting OF al the vsreins
was held first John Simmer presided
and Hans Goetz acted as secretary.
1t was thought all the vereins would
join forces to erect a big ball. This
plan was upset by the Mission Turn
Verein deciding to build its own hall
at Eighteenth and Lapidge streets. 1t
was then decided that each organiza-
ton would shift for itself
The relief committee of all the
vereins reported the receipt OF 500
from the Los Angeles Turn Verein, 500
from the Turn Verein Vorwaerts Of
Chicago and $50 from local men. This
fund is for turner's in need Hans

ing Franz Acker. president OF the San

members to order. Emil Rother acted
as secretary. William Plagemann pre-
sented plans for a temporary home,
with meeting rooms and gymnasium
1t was decided, with but little debate,
to build at once on the plans submit
ted. The cost will be about $4,000. The
committee in charge will be William
Plagemann. Hans Veroni and John

1t is expected that the Eintracht
Verein will merge with the San Fran

Statement.
Chief Executive
Would DiSpel
Anxiety.

The question Of the payment Of the
insurance losses was brought before the
General Committee by Mayor Schmitz
Saturday. The Mayor stated that 1t
was highly important that the people
should be informed at this time Of the
line of action decided upon by the com
panies, in view Of the diverse reports
in circulation. The subcommittee on
insurance was instructed to invite the
underwriters and State Commissioner
Of Insurance E. Myron Wolf to be pres
ent at the next meeting Of the commit
tee on reconstruction with such infor-
nation that they have in hand covering
this question.
For the purpose Of accommodating
the subcommittee, Judge +. W. Hem
shaw of the Supreme Court offered the
services Of the Century Club which has
turned over its clubhouse to that trt-
bunal. \
The meeting adjourned to reassembls
on this morning at 10 o'clock ar

EXCELLENT PROGRESS
IN THE ORGANIZATION
OF RELIEF STATIONS
Civilian Chairmen Acting in Conjunc
ton With the Military Prove
Efficient.
Uniform Registration Throughout Cit,
Gives Valuable Aid to the
Authorities.
Distribution Of Clothing, Medicines
and Surgical Supplies Now
Well Systematized.

The Associated Charities, with head
quarters in the Hamilton Grammar
School on Geary street, near Scott,
has made excellent progress in organ
izing the relief stations under the
civilian chairman, acting in conjunc-
ton with the military authorities.
The segregation into sections geo.
graphically divided, and into relief
stations appeared a somewhat puzzling
problem. The lines are completed in
most sections, and others are expected
to be completed within few hours.
In order to bring system and har-
nony into the work uniform regis
tration has been inaugurated through
out the city, and a large corps of
school teachers is giving valuable aid
to the workers at the relief stations.
The registration is in charge of
Professor Carl Plehn Of the University
of California.
The distribution of clothing, tents,
medicines and what may be ordered
by physicians has been systematized
and placed within one central supply
station at the Crocker School, Page
and Broderick streets. Individual ap-
plications will not be received at the
Crocker School, but the section chair
man will make requisition in bulk for
the distribution IN his station.
The magnitude Of the task occasions
inevitable delay, but an earnest effort
is being made TO supplement the giving
cut Of food and supplies with the de-
velopment of opportunities to regain
livelihood and thus solve Individual
problems.

PORTLAND, Ore, May s.-Late last
night United States District Attorney
w. G. Bristol made public the names
of twenty-ons men included in the
final and most important government
land fraud Indictment which has been
returned by the present Federal grand
Jury, which brought to a conclusion
its hearings yesterday and, was dis
charged.

reaching and intricatae conspiracy to
secure 100000 acres Of some Of the fin
est timber land In Oregon. located in
Crook, Lake and klamath counties.

White, saloonkeeper of Portland.
According to the Indictment. Elxins
&c Co., Dorgan & Co., the Gilchrists,
Culligan, Macpherson and Stone were
the moving spirits in the alleged con-
spiracy.
If the allegations of the indictment
are true. the mode of operations was
similar to those of nearly all the con-
spiracies which have been found in this
State, with this exception, that it's
ramifications are alleged to be wonder
fully extensive. Simplified, the plan
was merely to obtain land by procur-
ing entrymen to file on desirable pub
lilo acreage. and as soon as the patent
is issued to sell it to the alleged ring
leaders.
According to the Indictment, those
1NSANSo VIC pOA dlic6CQ u Dc De-
hind the movement were the tools
through which the alleged leaders
worked.
Some Of these men, 1t is expected,
secured entrymen to go upon public
land designated by the leaders, while
the indictment asserts that others, by
reason Of their prominence in their re-
spective communities, were employed
to further the alleged schemes by rec
ommending them to prominent officials.
Although the indictment declares
that the alleged conspirators procured
possession Of 400 claims, involving
201. 900 acres, the accused are charged
with the securing Of but $50 claims.
Warrants will be issued at once for
the arrest Of the accused, and 1t is ex-
pected that their apprehension will
take place Immediately.

BERKELEY, May 5.-The fears en-
tertained in some quarters that the
earthquake and fire disaster would so
scatter the members Of the University
symphony orchestra as to make the Civ
ing of the sixth and last concert Of the
series at the University impossible have
been entirely dissipated by the result
Of the first rehearsal Of the orchestra
for this last concert, the rehearsal TAX
ing place yesterday.
Ever since the fire, Professor Wolfe
and Mr. Minetti have been busy get
ting the addresses Of those who were
stil in the vicinity and procuring in
struments for those who had lost their
own. All concerned were gratifed when
fifty musicians appeared at the rehear-
sal with the word that severol more
would be present at the next rehearsal.
The last concert will, therefore, be Civ
en- by an orchestra larger than the one
that inaugurated this phenomenally suc-
cessful series. Nor will there be any
diminution in the quality Of the music
offered.
Tachaikowsky Nutcracker Suite is
now being rehearsed and rush orders
have been telegraphed East for the or
chestral scores for Beethoven g Fifth
symphony; Wagner's Waldweben; and
number of other popular CLASSICAL
pieces. A concert fully up to the pre-
vious high standard is assured. This
takes the place Of the proposed oratorio,
