Queen Elinor proceeded to the pa
vilion in the city's principal thorough
fare which was a bower of flowers.

by Prime Minister Charles NJ Morse,
member of the city council, and es-
corted to the throne. In a diplomatic
speech the statesman Informed the
queen that she had been chosen TO

Immediately after the coronation the

CLARFMONT HOTEL
TO BE COMPLETED
Bonds for S6OOO,OOO FIoated,
and Work on Building
Will Resume

OAKLAND. June 9.-Preparations are
being made for the immediate resump-'
ton of work on the Claremont hotel,
which was suspended at the time of the
financial panic about IS months ago,
the Claremont hotel company having
succeeded in floating bonds for the
purpose to an amount stated to be
100000.
Contractors have been instructed by
the company to proceed with their
work as quickly as possible and new
final contracts are being prepared.
Being already closed in, the hotel,
which is intended by its projectors to
rival Del Monte and other noted hostel
ries of the state, requires but finishing
touches, inside fitting and furnishing.
1t is confidently expected by the COM
pany that the grea hotel Will be ready
for occupancy by Christmas, when
there will be an elaborate opening to
the public.
The passage by the Berkeley council
of an ordinance permitting the widen
ing Of Claremont avenue will enable
the Key route TO run trains direct to
the hotel, facilitating access to it and
intermediate tracts.
Work on the hotel building was
commenced about four years ago, the
concrete foundation having been COM
pleted in the autumn of 1906. The
progress thereafter was rapid until the
autumn of 1907.
The hotel is located on a tract 25
acres in extent. and the building is
about an eighth of a mile long.
Dickey & Reed are the architects.
Including the price of land, the ter
racing, landscape gardening, power
house, roads, garage and other struc-
lures the entire cost of the resort will
it is estimated, fall not far short of
s2.000,000 when completed and thrown
open to the tourists and other prospec-
tive guests. The foundation of the
main building alone cost nearly $4,000.
The Claremont hotel company is a
corporation in which are interested the
Realty syndicate. Mason-McDuffie COM
pany, Wickham Havens and other indi-
viduals and companies of Alameda
county.
Within two weeks it is hoped the
long neglected resort will be the scene
of renewed active construction.
The securing of the 100000 and the
early resumption of work are sources
of great qualification, not only to
those directly interested, but to the
Eesidens and commercial bodies gen.
orally of Berkeley, Oakland and vi
ciniy, being Interpreted as a symptom
of greater busin ess activity and a
promise Of marked new attraction to
Alameda county.

CITY'S BUILDINGS
Discussion of Plan to Protect
Municipal Structures Against
Loss by Fire

OAKLAND. June 9.-The board of
public works has Undertaken to work
out definite policy of providing
against fire loss on the municipal
buildings. City Attorney Stetson
raised a point at the meeting of the
board this morning which outlined the
plan. and in the discussion following
it was pointed out that safety to the
public may be afforded with greater
economy by an abandoning or by re-

REGULATING ELECTRIC SIGNS

President E. A. Young. Secretary

advocated changes in the rules and
ordinances regulating electric signs.
Requesting that the rules of the board
be so altered as TO permit merchants
to use a new transparent Illuminated
sign, the committee declared the de-
vice would materially reduce expenses.
As to the ordinances in vogue. they
asserted that some stores light the
street signs only Saturday nights. and
recommended new ordinance requir-
ing electric signs to be Illuminated
nightly.

NAY CARRY ITS OWN INSURANCE

Stetson opened the discussion of
economy by stating that the state car
pries no insurance on its public struc-
lures. He recommended the same pro-
cedure for the city.
Here City Engineer Turner entered
the discussion, with the explanation
that the railroad companies usually do
not insure their buildings. He said
the separation of the property was so
great as to minimize to the utmost a
loss by fire in any building; and added
that the railroads. while having no
policies in companies, maintain a fund
to defray fire losses. He believed pro-
vision could be made in the city bud
get for fire protection for the city.
yet that more money for general ex-
penses would be available than under
the existing practice.
