REFUGEE CAMPS
Tented Camps In san FRANCHISES
Parks Are Peor sheiIer Against
the California Winter Rains-
i-bte Thousand Homeless

San Francisco correspondence
With the cold rains OF winter upon
them, 1900 persons are still living IN
the refugees amp OF SAL Francisco.
There were 100000 in the camps when
order was restored after the great TIRE,
but warm weather Vas at hand then
and the problem of caring for even
this great number was simplhed IN q
a by this fact Now il is differ
ent. The winter is on and the author
tiles realize that it viii be harder to
care for 1900 in the next four months
than it Was TO care for over ten times
that number early in the year.
The refugees are divided into two
ciasses-the self-supporting and the
non-supporting. The first are those
who are earning enough 10 support
themselves, e7en TO paying reasonable
rent, but have neither the furniture for
houses nor the ability 10 buy and who
IN many cases cannot secure houses at
reasonable rentals. The non-supporting
are those who were rendered absolute
IL destitute by the fire, mostly old per
SONS, who are being cared for in a
ann set aside for them at the Ingle-
side race course. These non-supporIiDg
ones have been made comfortable in
shacks, where they are looked after
by relief captains But the self-sup-
porting one are having a hard time OF
it DR.. Edward t. Devine, who had
charge Of the relief work UP 70 Aug. !,
had planned 10 have permanent houses
built, but to escape bankruptcy the
corporation had 10 abandon this plan
toward the end of August, when the
refugees We're ali in tents. Then it
was decided to build wooden shacks in
the parks 10 take the place of the tents
in which there would be little shelter
for the inmates against the rains of the
California winters. In all about 6,Goo
shacks will have been constructed when
the work is finished, but only a small
fraction of the shacks have been erect
ed and these are without plumbing and

Radical Consumption Theory.

DIR. W. P. Turner. a London rhysi-
clan of high standing, who has made a
irst-hand study of tuberculosis for many
years. has recently published his coDclu-
sions. the main feature of which is that
the disease is an animal disease,
primarily derived in all cases from
cattle. According to the review of
this work in Current Literature, he holds
that the original source of infection is
a plant, cattle deriving it from timothy
or other allied grasses from affinity. and
that man acquires the disease from IL
lection or incubation. never by inhala-
ton; also, that it is not hereditary or
subject to p~redisposition. The bacillus
is a s%aprophyte, feeding on vegetable de-
cay. but that it becomes pathogenic or
disease breeding when the cattle in which
it occurs are deprived of the sunlight.
which contains a property known as actin
ISM The group of diseases thus trans
mitted by cattle or flesh food he calls
mycotic. The grasses are the primary
host, cattle are the intermediary host.
and man rounds out the life cycle. So
that consumption can be regarded only MS
a parasitic disease. According to fhis
theory, inhalation has nothing to do with
the spreading of consumption, and the
theory that infection is conveyed BY the
sputum is abandoned, while the idea of
contamination through kissing would
prove n~onsensical.

I'M Il al it mns a scene 10 be remem.

all in all, it was a scene to be remem-
bered-
All along the line of march there
were fights and incipient riots. SeV.
oral times the driver was all bu. pulled
rro7, his seat. Captain j. n. kIiran,
csmp commander at Ingleside, had not
haen notified OF the descent that was
ha;ng made upon him. When b mob
escorted truck reached the outer gates
of the camp. Kilian, upon learning VINO
was thus being thrust upon him, denied
Mrs. Kelly admittance, on the ground
that she would spread dissatisfaction
and discomfort among a people VINO
bad become resigned 20 their unhappy
lot.
For two days. while the several fac
lions of the relief corporation were
disputing as to what disposition should
be made of the unhappy old woman,
he hack-laden truck remained in the
county road, outside the gates OF In
gIeside. The building was, Of course,
without fire. The six-mile journey
through the streets had racked IL bad
ly: the windows and the door could not
be closed. The rain entered at a nun
dred places. But the determined olo
woman did not desert her home.
After two days stay in the roadway
the shack was finally dragged inside
the camp. Mrs Kelly was warned that
il was to be pulled down. Still she
refused TO leave. 4 force of wofkInen
thereupon set upon it, until nothing
was left but three boards of the floor
upon which stood the resolute old wom-
an. waving her flag. while denouncing
those whom she termed her prosecutors
Then she went back TO the tent which
she had occupied before she seized the
shack.

Po.tmen Collect Debts.

A debt-collecting agency which Is rur
as a part Of the regular public posta
system is the newest Improvement
Of the p~ostofice of Austria.
Despite the novelty of the enterprise
the plan has worked admirably, so thai
thousands of dollars are collected annu
ally by the postmen throughout the
Austrian empire.
The system is very simple. Suppose
a tradesman in Vienna has an account
due from a customer in, say, such d
distant town as Budapest, which b
wishes to collect. Distance does ns
matter in the least.
He merely sends the bill to the POI
office in the capital, whence it Isl
once transmitted to the postofieE

of the fact, and valuable time is thus
frequently saved

these little structures will turn the
pelting rains and surely the tents in
which thousands are yet housed Will
not. The shaeks are of two sizes, the
larger mes being 16x1S feet and have
three rooms. while the smaller ones
have but two rooms.
Officials.
The city officials have not displayed
q generous spirit. When the Shacks
We're erected it was understood that
they were to stand until the middle of
August, 1907. But early in November
orders were issued hat all the parks
in the district where most of the
are located should be cleared
forthwith Of tents, houses and refugees.
This was on the V of election and
the order was that they must depart
before voting. Politicians interfered
and told the refugees that they would
not be removed. The park commits
sioners renewed their order, but it has
not yet beer put into effect and any
attempt to drive the people out will
lead to a riot, for they have no place
to go.
& monthly rental Of Sc is charged
for ~three-room shacks and of 81 for
two-room shacks. The collection of the
rent is difficult. Nine out of ten would
have paid without comment but for the
presence of agitators who refused to
pay and urged others not to pay. Those
who have paid their rent have been
watching those who DO not and as the
non-payers continue in possession of
their shacks the number who refuse to
pay increases daily. Matters were
brought TO a climax when eighteen
families took forcible possession of as
many jefferson square shacks and held
them in open defiance of the relief
corporation. They still hold them and
the effect is d~emoralizing. The spirit
which they displayed is Indicative of
the restlessness of the people and there
may be trouble before long.
Obstreperous Mary Kelly.
The raid made by the eighteen fam
HES was led by Mary Kelly, who was
also the leader of the -four riots last
summer. and also of the mob which
protested against giving a banquet to
Dr.. Deyine when there were refugees
suffering for the necessities of life.
Mrs Kelly has a paraIytic husband and
four children and has always been a
hard-working woman The members
Of the relief corporation were exas-
| perated with the woman when she
seized a cottage. They did not care to
bring eviction proceedings, they did moi
dare to pull her cottage down and they
hit upon the novel plan of dragging
black, woman and all to the non-sup-
porting refugees camp at Ingleside
where the relief captains would be free
10 work their wills. Accordingly q
squad Of policemen loaded her camp
upon a truck N started on The six
mile journey across the city to Ingie
