MERCHANTS FAVOR
CITY AUDITORIUM
Supervisors Urged to Take Ac-
ton Looking to Construction
of Great Building

The question of municipal audi
torium was again brought before the
supervisors public utilities committee
yesterday by a delegation from the
California Promotion committee and
the Merchants association, and thor
oughly discussed Acting Chairman
cessities at present precluded the plan,
but he put the matter over for two
weeks, when Chairman Giannini. who
has been absent in Washington on the
Hetch Hetchy matter, will have re-
turned
zoeth Eldridge stated that if the
plan of separate buildings were car
ried out municipal auditorium might
be built for from s750,000 to s1,000,000,
but If made a part of a great central
building the cost would be much less
Rufus Jennings reported that Denver
held that the recent democratic ma
tional convention had itself brought
enough money and trade to the city to
pay for having erected a municipal au-
ditorium, and r. A. Roos quoted James
j. Hill as saying the only way Seattle
could ever get ahead of San Francisco
would be by building colossal as
sembly hall and becoming a convention
city.
Among the other men urging the
project were: Kirkham Wright, e. j.
Molera, c. II. Crocker, Harry Willard,
George H. Pippy, DR.. c. E. Edwards,
Byron Mauzy. NJ. Meyerfeld, C. Mac
Dougal and Edgar Painter
Auditorium Scheme Favored
The San Francisco real estate board
has adopted a plan to equip It's Of
fices with a full set OF block books.
which will cost about $1,000. This de-
cision was reached at meeting of the
board held Tuesday The books will
be posted daily and all members of the
board will have access to them
Resolutions were adopted favoring
the plan to erect a modern auditorium
in this city for the purpose of housing
many large conventions which in the
future may be brought to San Fran
cisco. The resolution. suggests, how
ever, that the auditorium be built by
popular subscription. as 1t would be in
advisable at this time for the city and
county to increase its financial obliga-
tioHs.
The site of the old Mechanics pavil-
ion for the new auditorium is favored
by the real estate board.

CANE CROP NOT INJURED.
Small Damage By FIoods-Not Any
by Frost.

In speaking about the cane crop
this year to a Monterey News man
yesterday. Mr.. Jose Armendaiz said:
Although there has been some
damage done to the cane crops dur
ing the recent floods. l think on the
whole that the crop this year will
be above the average. The greatest
damage has been done to the smaller
places where their mills have been
damaged or entirely ruined
The cool weather which VIE have
been having for the past few days
has been just what is needed at this
time of the year in order to ripen
the cane The frosts which have been
experienced in the higher attitudes
have not touched the cane belt and
have therefore done no damage, and
if we can have this cool weather for
the balance of this month you will
see a large crop of cane harvested.
There has been no pilOncillO from
this years crop from this district put
on the local market as yet as it is al
together too early in the season. The
cutting generally begins about Mo-
vember ) and until that time there
Will be no piloncillO from this district
on the market There is, however,
some coming in from the districts
further south like MichOacan, where
they begin their cutting season ear
lier.

justice of the superior court, and heard
from States Attorney Wayman an im-
FASHIONED arraignment of the methods
alleged to have been employed in draw

names drawn by lot for jury service
were fraudulently displaced in the jury

acceptable to those in a conspiracy to
defeat the ends of justice. Whole
venires were tainted by this method, he
declared, even the grand jury suffer
ing. His sensational action of Satur-
day when he caused the making of three
arrests is said to have been based on the
confession of ''sQuealer."

dealer, and Nicholas J. Martin, secre-
tary to Aid. Michael (Hinkey Dink) Ken.
