STEPHENS WORKING
FOR FAST MAIL
Postal Official Holds Confer

Oh Renewal of Service
WANTS FAST TIME

I
! Superintendent A. II. Stephens of the
Railway Mail Service has recently re-
! turned to this city from the East,
where he has endeavored TO persuade
railroad officials to provide better
! train service for the United States
mails. The discontinuance Of the east
bound special train inaugurated at the
! first of the year to carry mail on a
running time of as near to seventy
three hours as the Southern Pacific
could approximate received the atten-
tion of Stephens, and on that matter
he had a long conference in Chicago
last week with II. P. Thrail, superin-
tendent of mall service on the South
ern Pacific.
AS result of the conference Steph-
ems hopes that the train service will
be resumed within two months The
rain Is said to have never been profit
able to the railroad company. The
<verage amount of mail arried east by
was 5000 pounds daily, while on the
vestbound run $1,000 pounds daily is

out Of this city on the fast train after
the fire was due to the wide distribu-
tion of business throughout the city.

The westbound fast mail train is
religiously two and a half hours late

to have ii on time. The loss of time
occurs on the Union Pacific. The
postal authorities will strive to have
the Union Pacific make up forty min

Thousands Of Land Owners
Will Sue Under Title Act
Bankers Say They
Will Continue
Realty Loans

Bankers say that the, decision OF the
Supreme Court of California regarding
the McEnerney title act will not at
feet their practice of lending. money on
real estate In San Francisco that can
show good title, even where suits UNI
der the act are not brought. Beginning
in June after vaults containing abb
stracts of titles had been opened and
had disclosed that the contents were
intact. the savings banks began lend
ing money on realty. largely to assist
in rebuilding. The title insurance and
abstract companies had records suff1-
cient, 1t Is claimed, TO reconstruct the
destroyed records of the city and
county. At all events, they were con-
sidered sufficient by the savings banks
to warrant loans to large amounts on
realty values. This is the custom that
will continue, so 1t was said yesterday
at the banks.
1.-The German Savings Bank" said
Secretary George Tourny, yesterday,
has been lending large sums since
June on the evidence of title TO land
that was supplied by title insurance
policies and the abstracts in our vaults,
which were uninjured. The bank will
continue to lend on similar showing.
The decision OF the Supreme Court OF
California may not be final. 1t will
not take effect for thirty days. In the
meantime an appeal may be taken Mr..
Goodfellow. attorney for the bank, has
advised that 1t will not be necessary to
make any change in our custom"
E. B. Pond president of the San
Francisco Savings Union, said: I'VE
have not advised our clients to bring
suit under the McEnerney act. The
San Francisco Savings Union has
lent and Is lending money on titles
that are ample and satisfactory. Now

great Chicago fire, although they had

McEnerney act
Cashier Calkins of the Mechanics
Savings Bank, said his bank had lent
money on realty ever since business
was resumed after the fire. 1T may
yet be necessary" said he. for some
Legislation to bridge the gap between
the Torrens act and the McEnerney
act"
The officers and law department OF
the Hibernia Savings Bank have ad-
vised- their clients to bring suit under
the McEnerney act. Money has been
lent largely by that bank for re-
building to many. Last evening IL was
said by an attorney connected with the
law department of the bank that, the
lending of money as indicated would be
continued. The filing OF suit under
the McEnerney act and title insur-
ance policy. Ii was said, would make
title as clear as it could Immediately
be made. 1t would not be necessary
to walt for a decree by court as
basis of borrowing money.

Great Increase II,
Work of County
Clerks Office

The decision OF the Supreme Court
last Friday declaring the McEnerney
act, providing for the quieting OF titles
TO property by suits against the world,
TO be constitutional, promises to cause
large increase in the work OF the
Courts during the next several months.
and 1t is estimated that the receipts OF
the County Clerks office will be in
creased on THIS account by $4,000 be-
tween now and July /, the end OF the
fiscal year
Beforesth constitutionality of the
act was determined, 4f9 suits OF this
nature were filed with the County
Clerk, but none have yet-co to trial.
Anticipating the decision of the Su-
preme Court, however, County Clerk
.Mulcrevy has already provided the
necessary books, dockets and hleS FOR
handling this class of legal business.
and the suits on file will be assigned
to the different departments for trial
as soon as possible.
: Carrot W. McEnerney, author of the
McEnerney act, said yesterday that he
estimates that there are 10000 prop
erty owners in the city and that every
one of these will take advantage of the
act to establish title to his or her prop
erty. Both he and County Clerk Null
crevy estimate that 5000 such suits Will
be filed between now and the end Of
the fiscal year, and as the average
filing cost of a suit will amount to $40
the added income will total $4,000
from this source alone. 1t probably
VIII be necessary to employ extra
clerks to take care Of this work.
Already the work of the County
Clerks Office has shown an enormous
increase since the FIRE. For the four
months prior to the disaster the aver
age excess of receipts over expendi-
lures was $500 a month. which was
greater than. it had ever been before
During the seven months since the fire
the average monthly excess of receipts
over expenditures has been $4,000, maxi
ing total of s21 900 which has been
turned into the General Fund.
County Clerk Mulcrevy's report for
November shows that receipts exceeded
expenditures by s266640. The total
amount received was s9316.40, of which
$3S39.75 was collected by the general
department, $996.25 by the civil. de-
partment, $109S.40 by the probate de-
partment 500 by the marriage license
department, 1922 from law library fees
and $3.50 from the police courts.

suspended for five months the license OF

FIVE PosToFFICE STATIONS
GO OUT OF BUSINESS
Clerks Resign because Work Increased
Far Beyond Limits of the Com
pensatfon Accorded Them

Owing to the large and unexpected
increase of business in postoffice sta
lions in various parts of the city and
the Inadequate compensation allowed
by the Postoffice Department. many of
the clerks have resigned and the Offices
have been closed. The following sta
tions were closed during the. past week:
No. 10. Sixteenth and Howard: No 20,
Baker and Fulton; No. 81, Post and
Buchanan; No. -, Pine and Franklin;
No. &c, McAllister and Fillmore.
These stations are usually in drug
stores, stationery stores and other con-
renient places. In most of them. since
the rebuilding boom began to be fairly
under way, the business increased to
such an extent as TO call for the en-
ployment Of additional help. an expense
which the stated compensation would
not warrant.
