LAUGHTER AND

PLACE OF TEARS
Anniversary of DiSaS-
ter Observed
San Francisco Citizens Attend Charity
Fete at Fairmont Hotel, Located
on Summit Of Knob
Hill
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 16.-The OBJ
servance of the first anniversary of the
earthquake and great fire which laid
San Francisco in ruins April 1S last
began tonight with charity fete at the
beautiful Hotel Fairmont on the sum-
NIT of Mob Hill.
Thursday, the actual anniversary, has
been declared a municipal holiday by
the board of supervisors, and on that
evening there will be a notable dinner
given by the Merchants association,
also at the Fairmont, at which the
material as well as civic rehabilitation
of San Francisco will be discussed by
eminent citizens.
For tonights fete the Fairmont was
for the first time illuminated and prac-
tically thrown open to the public. 1t
occupies an entire block opposite the
former palatial residences of Leland
Stanford, Mark Hopkins, later the Hop
kins Institute of Art, and James L.
Flood, business partner of United States
Senator Fair, by whose daughters, Mrs.
Herman Oelrichs and Mrs. W. K. Van
derbilt, jr., the construction OFF the
hotel was begun. Its windows command
a view of almost the entire city and
bay, and the structure is the most
prominent architectural feature of the
city.
Seven Hundred Apartments
1t is declared to be equal in con-
struction and equipment to any similar
building in the world. Including the
furnishings, it cost about s2,500,000, con-
tainsa 900 rooms for guests and 100 other
apartments and will have permanent
force of over 600 employees.
A few months before the great fire it
came into the hands of the present
owners, having been exchanged for
downtown business property. The in
terror was gutted by the flames year
ago, but the walls were left almost in
tact, and the work of reconstruction
was at once begun. The hotel now is
virtually complete, though many minor
details will yet be elaborated.
The fete tonight was the most brill
liant social function since the disaster,
and the spacious halls and lobbies of
the Fairmont were thronged until a
late hour.

BY Associated Press.

NEW YORK, April 16.-The beauti-
full new building of the engineering
societies presented to the American
Institute of Electrical Engineering, the
American Society of Mechanical En-
gineers and the American Institute OF
Mining Engineers by Andrew Carnegie
was dedicated today.
After an opening prayer by Rev. E
e. Hale, letters from President Roose-
velt and President Diaz of Mexico
were read.
President Roosevelts letter follows:
II hereby congratulate you upon the
opening of the beautiful building which
will be the largest engineering center
of it's kind in the world. 1t Is indeed
the first of it's kind. It's erection in
New York serves to emphasize the
supremacy which this country is stead
lily achieving through her proficiency
in applied sciences.
THE whole country is interested in
the erection of such a building, and
of course all of those who follow
either the profession of engineering or
any kind of profession, and in no
branch of work have Americans shown
to greater advantage what we like to
think of as the typically American
characteristics"
Letter from Diaz
The letter from President Diaz ex-
pressed cordial good wishes for the
engineers who contribute so much to
the development and welfare of hu-
manity and my admiration for the
great philanthropist, Carnegie, whose
splendid generosity is known by the
entire civilized world
Mr.. Carnegie in an address said:
I'VE went to Pittsburg the other day.
Wishing to know nothing 1 purposely
kept away from the fairy palace of
Aladdin. 1 found they had brought
forth something so beautiful that /
was in a dream. When 1 come here
l find the circumstances similar.
Much of my youth has passed away
and 1 recall it, but here is a rock
upon which l can rest. No man can
deny that all is well. because all grows
better. There is that principle of bet
Hrment inherent within and that is
the comforting thought upon which I
rely and in which 1 find rest. Today
is better than yesterday and tomorrow
will be better than today / know
this building will increase in usefulness

TEAM WINS DUAL
MEET AT ORANGE
DISCUSS STATE
AUTOMOBILE LAW

For the purpose of discussing proposed
amendments to the automobile law. and
to consider the best way to secure the
elimination of what they consider unfair
portions of the motor vehicle statute.
Automobiles are to gather tonight at the
clubhouse OF the New Jersey Automobile
and Motor Club. In South Broad street.
1t is expe tied that this session will be
one of the most important. viewed from
the standpoint of a motor car driver. that
has ever been held in New Jersey. Repre-
sentatives from automobile clubs through
OUT the State are to be present.
The idea Of the automobilists Is that
only by concerted action can they secure
the reforms that they wish TO see enacted
Into laws. 1t is purposed to have a gem
eral discussion. without any set program.
In order to have something de1nit Yin
mind, however, 1t is planned to offer a
set Of resolutions, embodying the points
which are to be taken up. w. c. Crosby,
chairman of the legal committee of the
club. is 10 attend to this detail. He has
secured from prominent motorists in this
and other States opinions on the present
State law, and. after the general dis
cussion tonight, II will probably be de-
termined whether the automobilists desire
TO have an entirely new law enacted or
what they consider the most striking de-
feets in the present statute remedied.
One of the subjects to come up for dis
cussion will undoubtedly be that of reauir-
ing by law drivers of all vehicles to carry
lights after dark. This plan, 1t Is said,
is supported by the State authorities, and
viii probably be made a law soon. An
other subject which has been long dis
cussed by automobilists in this State Is
that of securing legislation permitting
motorists from other States to pass
through New Jersey without having TO Sc
cure license pads bearing New Jersey
numbers. Something in the way of an
Interstate law on this subject is much
desired. The matter of higher license
charges for high-power cars and moderate
license rates for smaller machines will
also be taken w tonight.
