pervisors' police committees consider
alton yesterday of Professor Joseph Hi
dalgo's application for an exclusive

REORGANIZATION OF
BANK IS INDORSfD.
Stock Holders and Depositors OF
California Safe Deposit
Answer Appeal
Small Remaining Subscription
Needed to Release Big
Sum for Holidays

Stock holders and depositors of the
California safe deposit and trust COM
pany are indorsing the reorganization
plan so readily that there is no longer
any question that the bank will be re-
opened, according TO the statement of
oscar S. Cooper. secretary of the re-
organization committee, yesterday.
Since the appointmen of the Cen
tral trust company Wednesday last to
act as trustee for both stock holders
and depositors several former stock
holders have come forward with sub
scriptions and the committee has the
promise of other sums which probably
will put the total over the 100000
mark within the next 10 days.
Many depositors have gone to the
headquarters of the committee in the
Kohl building and signed the assign
ments. necessary to complete the plans
for the reopening of the bank
Vice President William Metzner
pointed out that the plan practically
adds $2.000.000 to the assets of the
bank. inasmuch as the stock holders
were to furnish $1.000,000 in addi-
tional cash capital. Unless this sum
is actually paid into the new bank in
cash the assignments of the depositors
will be returned, says Metzner, 50 that
the interests of the depositors are
fully protected
1t is understood that the needful
balance of 100000 to complete the
subscription of $1,000,000 by the local
stock holders will be ready by the
time the needed number of depositors
have signified their willingness to
have the bank reopened and the other
million is practically on call in New
York city.
1t is pointed out that with the re-
opening of the bank at least 81 900. 900
will be put into circulation in this city
in time, it is expected, to be great
stimulus to the holiday trade.

SUBSCRIPTIONS TO
THE PORTOLA FUND

Do 1t nom.
This is the motto the finance COM
mittee of the Portola festival hopes
all loyal San Ffanciscans will observe
in sendinga in their contributions to
the festival fund. To insure the sue
cess of the big fete 100000 must be
raised, and raised Immediately.
Citizens of Seattle raised 100000 in
one day for the Alaska Yukon Pacific
exposition. San Francisco, with sew
eral times the population of its north
ern neigh5or, is asked to raise $780,
600 for fete that will rebound to
its credit throughout the entire world.
San Francisco startled the world by
the work of rehabilitation and thou
sands of visitors will come here in
October to see with their own eyes
the modern miracle of the new city.
They will expect that the play of the
giants will be in keeping with their
herculean labors.
The plans for the Portola festival
contemplate surprising any fete of
modern or ancient times. To insure
the success of these plans money is
needed, and needed Immediately. One
dollar now will do more good than two
dollars a month from now.
The present is the crucial moment
of the festival. Contracts are about to
be let and the final work is about to
begin. If the money sought by the
finance committee is not received i'm
mediately there will have to be cur
tailment all along the line. Tons of
material and the work for weeks of
hundreds of skilled mechanics will be
necessary to make the October fete
worthy of San Francisco.
Every dollar raised in Seattle for
the exposition has been returned many
times over to its donor. The Mardi
Gras in New Orleans brings untold
wealth every year into that city. The
Portola festival will be a great stim-
ulus to the trade and industry of San
Francisco and the state at large.
1t has come to the notice of the
finance committee that fraudulent
solicitors for the festival fund are in
the field. All the authorized solicitors
have credentials from the finance COM
mfttee. The committee wishes that
any person in doubt concerning a
solicitor should telephone to the Por-
tola headquarters
Send in your subscription to the Por-
tola festival.

Where the German Language Scores.
The poverty of the English Ian.
guage is exemplified by circular
which is making the round of a
suburb and inviting subscriptions to
testimonial to the station master.
1t comes from one who styles himself
the longest resident" the sad physi-
cal fact being that he is probably
the shortest, although in bulk and
rotundity he makes up for the inches
he lacks in height.
Here is case in which the very
clumsiness of the German language
would be inestimable help, for then
this gentleman could quite correctly
describe himself ''the for-the- longest
time-herein-residing," or even per-
haps 'the Observation-Disclosures

compound adjectives of the Teutons
may be awkward, but they express
