URGES PAVING Of
SUFFER- STREET

NJ. Goldberg and G. w. Merritt, rep
resenting the Sutter Street Improve
ment Association. appeared before the
day and urged that the work of re-
paving Sutter street. from Market to
Van Ness avenue, be recommended to
the board. Goldberg stated that If the
recommendation were made the mem
bers of the association would purchase
municipal bonds on January rs, when
bids are to be opened. to the amount
of $4,000, the estimated cost of the
work.
Chairman Rea of the committee
stated that while the committee was
in favor of the Improvement, it could
not legally recommend the doing of
the work at this time, but the commit
tee would give positive assurance that
the work would be ordered as soon as
the bonds were sold. Rea also sug
gested that the association purchase
bonds in excess of the actual amount
required for the repaving of Sutter
street. He thought the club should buy
100000 worth of bonds and Goldb erg
promised to bring the matter up before
the club for consideration. Rea an
nounced that the same course would
be pursued in the case of all street
improvements desired to be carried out
in the various districts.
The committee decided to confer
with the Board of Works before taking
action on the petition of the Barber
Company for extensions of time on it's
contract to repave Turk and Ellis
streets 1t was stated that the work
could not be done until property own
ers built retaining walls under the
sidewalk line.
Action on the petition that the stone
sidewalks on Eighth avenue, between
] and K streets, be not accepted be-
cause they were not properly con-
structed was postponed for one week.
The City Engineer reported that the
work was done according to specifica-
tions, but that wagons had driven over
the sidewalk, causing 1t to break up.

Of OIL DUTIES

MANILA, Jan. 17.-The Insular Gov
ernment demands payment from the
Standard OIL Company OF s1s,51z in
gold. duty upon oil brought into the
Philippines Islands prior TO 1901. The
Standard OF Company at that time con-
tracted with the United States Quarter
masters Department to deliver $4,000
cases OF oil, which were to be admitted
free OF duty. The company delivered
1863 cases on this contract and sold
1881 cases TO merchants. The duty
was s1O1 per case.
On November Is. 1901, the duty on
oil was reduced 40H cents and sub
seouent to this the Standard Oil Com
pany imported oil under the new duty
and finished it's contract with the
American Government
The Insular Government now de-
mands the payment OF the difference
due between the new and the old duty
amounting to e0H cents per case, to-
gether with penalties attached.

DIRECTORS Of FAIR
TALK FINANCE

The directors of the Pacific Ocean
Exposition Company, which was or
ganized for the purpose of holding
worlds fair in San Francisco in 1913,
at a meeting in the Promotion Com
mittee building in Union Square yes
terday gave formal approval to the
bill introduced in the Legislature by
Senator, Eddie Wolfe providing for an
initial appropriation of S1.0OO,00O for the
enterprise. The plan is to have a like
sum appropriated every two years
until a total of S3,000,000 has been
set aside by the State for the expo
sition. Citizens of San Francisco will
be asked to subscribe a like sum, and
then the national Government will be
called upon for a liberal appropriation.
The Wolfe bill also provides for the
appointment of three commissioners.
who shall cooperate with the Pacific
Ocean Exposition Company of San
Francisco. The measure is so framed
that it will devolve upon the company
propriated by the State. The State
commissioners alone will have power to
disburse the fund voted by the Legis-
lature.
The meeting was taken up with a
discussion of the financial side of the
fair. The cooperation of a number
of leading business men of San Fran
cisco, it was stated. has been promised
The question of site has not come
up yet. but the directors anticipate no
difficulty on this score. The following
officers and directors of the organiza-
tion were at the meeting: Homer S.
King, president; John Martin, vice
president; F. Tillmann Jr., vice presi-
dent: Henry I. Scott vice president;

PORTLAND, Ore, Jan. 17.-Three
occupants leaped from the Eugene-Ma-

horses went over an icy precipice last
night
The stage, drawn by two horses and
driven by Frank Taylor, reached TIL
den Rock, a point ten miles east of
Mapleton, where the road had been
blasted out of the solid rock for 100
yards. The Siuslaw River RACES forty
feet below. AS the grade Is always
dangerous to travel at night the driver
slowed up and proceeded with great
caution, but as the team reached a
point where a stream of water pours
down the mountain and across the road
they slipped on the ice and fell. In
their frantic endeavors to regain their
feet the horses plunged over the preci-
pice, dragging the stage with them.
The driver and the two passengers,

man OF this. city, succeeded in getting
out before the vehicle went over.

ASKS MORE POWER
FOR COMMISSION
President Outlines Plan to
Urge Congress to Aid
Interstate Investigation
NEW DEMURRAGE LAW

WASHINGTON. Jun. I7.-COngress
will be asked by President Roosevelt
TO give the Interstate Commerce Conn
mission increased powers to enable
that body 10 deal with such emergen-
cies TINT now existing with regard
10 the ear shortage question. The
commission has already submitted to-
the President n preliminary report of
the Investigations made by some of it's
members I'm the Northwest into this
matter and it Will submit recOmmen-
datiOns soon.
When these ar@ ready the President
VIII prepare a special message TO Con-
greSs urging necessary legislation.
The President made this announce
ment today at conference with Messrs.
Knapp. Clements. Harlan and Clark of
the Interstate Commerce Commission
and four members of the executive
committee of the National Reciprocal
Demurrage Convention recently held
at Chicago. They included ]. Van
Hoose. Birmingham, Ala. representing
the Southern Wholesale Grocers' Asso-
citation; George H. Emerson, Hoquiam.
Wash, representing the Pacific Coast;
Donald A. Sage, Chicago. representing
the coal shippers. and J. E. Defen-
baugh, secretary of the convention.
The President took deep interest
in the appeal presented to him by the
demurrage representatives asking that
he recomend federal legislation giving
the Interstate Commerce Commission
power to deal with the question of car
shortage when such an emergency
arose. and setting out the serious con-
dition of affairs resulting from the
present situation.
The Presidents idea, as expressed by
one of those present. was that what
ever amendments to the interstate
commerce act on this subject may be
enacted they should not become opera
tive until July l. when the railroads
would have had ample opportunity to
prepare for the change.
Interstate Commissioners unofficially
say their recommendation to the Presi-
dent will include some form of recip-
rocal demurrage, so that the carrier
may be penalized for delay in moving
as well as the consignee for delay in
unloading cars and probably some sug-
gestion for the interchange of cars by
railroads to meet extraordinary de-
mands in one section not existing in
another.
One of the demurrage representa-
tives told the President that because
OF a dispute between the railroad
companies and the consignees 1900 cars
of coal were held at Minneapolis and
several hundred at Chicago. The Pres
: ident directed the Interstate Commerce
Commission to INVESTIGATES
