$4,000 for Art Museum.


This year there are ten items: Art
museum, $4,000; public comfort station,
$17,5o0; bath house, $4,000; Lidgerwood
Park, $4,000; fire house site, Fifteenth
ward. $500: site for Sixth Precinct
police station $4,000; addition to No. 10
engine house. $500; repairs to Third
Precinct police station, $15,000 land for
tuberculosis hospital, $1,000, and fire
house site in Court street, $4,000, maxi
ing $142, 500 in all
Some of these items will proba bly,
stand as they are. owing to action
already taken by the Common Council
The $4,000 for the establishing of an
art museum has been favored by the
aldermanic body by resolution, and so
stands a fair chance of escaping the
knife. The public comfort station, for
which $500 is asked is an old propo-
sition, which has already been indorsed
and one on which preliminary work has
already been edone. The land for the
tuberculosis hospital is regarded as a
necessity, and it will take some pretty
strong argument to have the amount
asked for that purpose reduced.
AS to the appropriation for the bath
house there is some OPPOSITION. The
$4,000 item for repairs to the Third
Precinct station is also looked on with
doubt by many, though small amount
for necessary improvements is admitted
to be necessary
Board of Works Budget.
In regard to the Board of Works
budget it is not expected that any very
great decrease can be made in the
amount asked for. While the increase
of the budget over last year is by no
means small it Is composed of items
that it will be hard to cut out.
Should all the cuts that are planned
to be made it is still improbable that
the rate for this year can be brought
below $2.02. Should the more conserva-
tive minds prevail the total budget for
the city will approximate s4,OO0,OOo,.
Allowing for a s15,000,000 increase in
ratables the city rate would be In the
neighborhood of $134. which, taking
the escounty rate at .6S, would bring the
total rate to that mentioned.
AS yet the city tax board Is not GER

companies. The Mutual Benefit and the

SEVERE STORM ON

Traffic in Certain Sections E.
tectua||y Blocked.

San Francisco, Feb. "a storm
now prevailing over the entire Pa
cific coast has seriously interfered
with railroad and telegraph communi-
cation, Heavy rains have fallen in
Southern California, causing washouts
along the railroad lines and carrying
away the telegraph poles. There has
been much snow in tho mountains and
should warm weather follow there will
be another rise in the rivers.
Several serious washouts and land
slides on the Tehachapa grade, be.
tween Bakersfield and Los Angeles,
have occurred, effectua]ly blocking
travel on the Santa Fe and Southern
Pacific railroads. This cuts off the
southern part of the state from this
city.
In the Yosemite valley there is now
three and half feet of snow on the
level and about five feet in the drifts.
There Is no indication of an abate.
ment of the storm.
The snowfall in the Sierras, on the
line Of the Southern Pacific between

NINE MANAGER sHANGHAIED
Strange Disappearance of Arizona
Man Explained.

Tacoma, Wash, Feb y. 80 The
strange disappe of T. A. Cox,
general manager of the Arizona and
Pittsburg Mining and Smelling com
pany, Tucson, Ariz., was partly
cleared up when he walked Into Ta-
coma from Puget sound, after having
been absent from home since Dec. 16
last.
While,reticent as to the details Cog
alleges that he was shanghaied from
the port of San Francisco Dec. 20 and
that his abductors placed him aboard
q strange ship, robbed him of his jew
elry and $3.50 in money and that he
was turned adrift Thursday.
Mr.. Cox reached here penniless and
ragged and without enough funds to
pay for the telegram that he sent to
his wife telling her he was alive He
is with friends in this city and is in a
shattered mental and physical state,
but rational. He has promised to un-
ravel the details of his forty-eight
days OF. captivity as soon as he can

asked them to say nothing, as he in
tended to make statement. The
state department officials also de-
clared that they could not talk.
The positive statement was made
by a member of the party that not one
word was mentioned as to an intima-
tion from Japan as to how she might
treat certain legislation in California.
Nor would the president say word
toward clearing up the remarks made
by the speaker Of the California lower
house that he was in possession of in
formation showing that the situation
would become critical if the legisla-
ture persisted in it's course.
The fact that the state department
was represented in the conference has
excited more speculation than any
other feature and caused the belief
that certain representations have
been made by Japan as to how she!re
CARDS possible legislation in Califor-
MIA. Intimation was conveyed that
important messages have been re-
ceived from Ambassador O,Brien, our
representative at Toxic, portraying
the feeling there. In reply to Inquiries
along these lines Secretary Bacon de-
clined to talk.
