San Francisco Insurance Decision.

San Francisco.-An important de
cision affecting the Interpretation of
the earthquake clause in insurance
policies was rendered Tuesday in the
United States Circuit Court by Judge
Whitson, in which he sustained an OBJ
lection made against the Introduction
of testimony showing that the destruc-
ton of property was due to the Grip
ping of the water mains by the earth
quake and in rendering the decision,
said: Il cannot divest myself of the
belief that the words direct or indi-
rect loss or damage were intended to
relate to the direct or indirect origin
Of the fire, and not to the disarrange-
ment of the agencies employed to pre-
vent the spread of fire."

ACCIDENTS TO WORKERS.
Some Appalling Statistics Of Loss OF
Life.

DR.. Josiah Strong, president Of the
American Institute OF Social Service,
in speaking of the number of persons
killed each year in our industrial occu-
pations, made some astonishing com
PARSONS. He said:
We in the United States kill in four
years some 0,00o persons more than
fell in battle and died of wounds dur
ing the four years of the Civil War.
We are killing more than twice as
many every year as periShed by Vio-
lence in both the French and English
armies during the three years of the
Crimean War.
There are more killed and wounded
on our railroads every year than the
entire losses of the Bocr War on both
sides in three years. We have indus
trial casualties enough every year to
keep one conflict like our war with
Spain going for 100 years. Our peace
full vocations cost more lives every two
DAYS than were lost in battle during the
entire Spanish War.
From the best statistics obtalnable,
| may say there are to-day 5i5,ooO per-
sons in the United States under sen
tence of death to be executed at an un-
known moment during the next ten
vears-1,1 100 next week and the same
number every week until the ghastly
work is complete. An intelligent ana
earnest effort would procure the re
prieye of a multitude Of these innocent
victims"

ALAG FOR CONCRETE WORK.
Experiments TO Be Made by the Uni
versity of Colorado.

The Union Pacific Railway Company
has recently submitted TO the civil en-
sineering department OF the tniyer-
sity of Colorado series of tests to be
made upon Stag from the immense
dumps of the smelters. These tests
will be made with the view OF determ-
lining the value of the Stag as a subsi-
tute in the place of broken rock for
concrete work in eulverts, retaining
walls. platforms and the like.
AS the expense in breaking rock for
use in concrete is large, and this
the use of the Stag, the saving would
waste lie unused, and if its utility
should be determined for some pur
pose, the economic importance would
be considerable.
The object of the experiments
therefore is not only TO accomplish
financial economy in the matter OF
breaking and transporting the rock.
but of ascertaining the efficiency OF
the Stag in its place. Consequently.
tension. compression, and. weathering
tests are and will be made, and com
parisons drawn between the stone OF
the Lyons formation and the Stag in
regard to their efficiency as aggre-
gates.
The work is under the direct super
vision of F. w. Doolittle and II. j. kes-
ner OF the civil engineering depart
ment of the University and when their
report is made 10 the railway company
the announcement of the results Will
be awaited with interest.

Salton Sea Like Ontario.

According to Louis c. Hill, super
vising engineer of the United States
Reclamation Service for Arizona and
southern California, If the Colorado
river continues to flow into the Salton
sink 1t will bring into existence BODY
of water that will be as large as Lake
ontario. Speaking on the subject he
said:
Already 45o square miles OF the
bed of the basin of what was once a
salt sea has been covered by the
water to a depth of sixty feet, and If
the flow continues, 1000 square miles
will be covered to depth OF 270 feet.
"As the water has torn down into
the sink, which is 200 feet below the
level of the sea, it has made an ever
deepening ravine, until at present the
water falls from a height of eighty
feet and gives promise Of creating a
second Niagara"

carneoie's Partners, the People.

The Review Of Reviews prints an
article by Andrew Carnegie, entitled
"My Partners, the People" Carnegie
expresses the belief that n millionaire
ought to share his wealth with the
poor. but with the limitation that his
fortune should not be divided before
the millionaire's death Then the
community should expect a large
share. Carnegie humbly deprecates
the claim of the merely wealthy TO
fame. They have no place with the
educated man, and they occupy a
lower plane Intellectually. In the
coming day brains will stand above
dollars, and conduct above both.

state authorities having the mat

tional history of South Carolina
for the handbook that has been
authorized by the Legislature to
be published. Col. Banks went
to Columbia this week to enter
upon the work. He will likely
be absent month or two, as it
will take several weeks to look
up the necessary records in the
state capitol and write the his

The selection of Col. Banks for
this important undertaking is a
decided compliment to that we'll

And it goes without saying that
the work will be we'll and thor

is another man in the state
as familiar with the history
of education in South Caro-

been actively engaged in school
work for more than a quarter of
a century.
Col. Banks, by the way, de

kulp seems very willing to accept the

to the fact that the farmers i'll the
vicinity of the range have objected to
its use. Previous to taking the men of
