 OF A MAYOR
San Francisco Not Agreed
 Upon a Plan
The Commercial Bodies Propose Amendments to LangdOn's Plan.

San Francisco. July l1.-Several meetings and tconferences of officials of commercial bodies were held today to consider the proposition of District Attorney Langdon for a convention to select a successor to Schmitz. The of- ficers of the Merchants Exchange drafted a letter to Langdon in which they stated that in order to secure a man of strength and character to act as mayor" they deemed it advisable that the scheme of representation in the proposed convention should be changed. They suggested that the convention be enlarged from 30 to 45; that the basis of Is labor representa- tives and 15 delegates from the com mercial bodies be retained and that in addition to these another 15 citizens be added to be selected by Chief Justice Beatty of the supreme court, President Wheeler of the state university. and Judge DeHaven of the United States district court.
 It is stated that the idea of the ex- tra fifteen delegates was for the pur- pose of making the convention more representative and non-partisan. It was further suggested that the con- ventiOn should select sixteen men for supervisors, in addition to the mayor. and that they be seated after the new mayor is installed. The letter asked for Langdon's assurance that the pro- posed new supervisors would be in stalled.
 Among the other commercial bodies the real estate board was the only one IL T of trade did not meet but President Watkins discussed the question in formally with the directors and later had conference with the other pres ] idents of mercantile organizations. The conference did not result in definite action. It is probable that the mer- | chants association may take up Lang dOn's proposal tomorrow Langdon | tonight stated that the plan of select | ing a mayor suggested by the officials of the Merchants Exchange would not be accepted.
 He said: "A thousand ways of se- lecting a mayor might be devised | The plan proposed was. I believe, in all respects fair. The organizations tC which invitations were sent to parti- | cipate in conference. Were given until
 Saturday to decide upon what course they would pursue. That time has not yet expired. When it has there will b,
 time enough for us to decide on the | next step"
 At meeting of the board Of super
 visors this evening specially called bS
 Mayor Boxton. a resolution was adopt ed establishing new quarters for tn,
 mayors office in the city hall. the or i fees occupied by Schmitz having beer : abandoned by order of the district at
 torney. The real object of the meeting
 was to give Boxton a chance to pre-
 side as mayor. and so add possible le- ] gal weight to his appointment to tht office by the supervisors. Boxton ap-
 pointed Harry G. McKannay, a young lawyer. as his secretary.

THE SPECULATORS
 TAUGHT CAUTION
An Abandonment of the Project to Maintain an Unnatural Level of Prices.

New York. July 11.-Yesterday's up- set of the campaign for a rise in stocks had the natural effect today of much curtailing the column operations and begetting a cautious spirit in op- erating. In the latter part of the day the market showed not more than a nominal and feeble fiuctuat:on of mar ket Speculation.

Pay Children to Attend School

a plan of paying children to at
tend school is being agitated by
the Omaha Juvenile Court.
Regular weekly appropriations
are taken from churches, friend
ly societies, women's clubs aud
other organizations. The plan is
intended 10 make it unnecessary
for children to work for the sup-
port of their parents or younger
brothers or sister. working chill
dren are to be placed III school
and the exact amount of their
earnings will be paid to them by
the court, Thousands of dollars
a year, it is estimated, will be
dispensed by the court officers.
One large insurance order has
already intimated its willingness
to pay weekly stipeads to chill
dren Of living and deceased mem
bers of the order. All the funds
it is intended, shall be at the
Juvenile Court. At present hun
dreds of childrea are forced to
earn living. Most of them earn
$3.50 to As a week. Other cities
are expected to adopt the plan if
it proves the success which is
expected in Omaha.

Raising Subscription Rates.

Country weeklies in Illinois
are systematically raising their
subscription rates to meet the
increased cost of paper, labor
aud production generally -
Printers Ink
It is to be hoped the country
publishers of Illinois will not be
the only ones to display their
goo1 judg nent and com mon
sence by advancing the subscrip-
ton prices of their papers. I'm
less the country publishers 10
every State ia the Union follow
their example, the next few
years will see many of them
seeking a way out Of financial
diff culties.
1t costs the owner or publish
err of newspaper more for liv-
ing expenses in Georgia than in
Illinois.
Again, it not only costs the
country publishers more, to live
and do business in Georgia than
it costs their brethren in l Ii,
pois, but it is fact that prices
of job printing aud advertising
space are highest Ia the last
named State.
With all of these facts staring
Georgia country publishers in
the face, what are they going to
do? There is but one sensible,

not believe it, but those kangaroos are,

to the inquiry Of a passenger who con-

ued. ''who owns the section on the 9th

Presently, as often happens on a

he raised himself from the grass where
he had been feeding and looked toward
the coach with an innocent. inQuiring
air.

his head
Nothing for you today, old many be

The kangaroo, as if that was all be
had been waiting for, hoped quickly
out Of view among the trees, to the
amazement of the box seat traveller
and intense enjoyment Of the other oc
cupants Of the coach.
