ing the ratification of the India basin
act. They state that the acquisition o1
the So blocks at Islais creek and the
construction of an inland basin are es-
sential to the growth of the harbor
The case is thus presented by the ship
ping men:
We, the undersigned ship owners
Of San Francisco, hereby place our
selves on record in favor Of the
India basin act in order to show
the city recognize the necessity of
the proposed inland harbor as con-
templated / nthe measure.
If the best development of San
Francisco's water front is to be
realized to meet the increased de-
mands upon it which will follow
the opening of the Panama canal
and the development of the Pacific
commerce the So blocks of sub
merged land described In the India
basin aot must be acquired for har-
The best interests of San Fran
cisco and the state demand that
such inland harbor be owned and
controlled by the state. That the
state may own. and control the har-

same time waving lantern, Keeper C..
A. Sterling saved the crew of small
vessel which was disabled in the storm
OF that night. Keeper Sterling report
ed that at o'clock that evening he saw
a small vessel within sight, which had
carried away mast about 10 feet above
deck, with distress signals flying from
the stump of the spar. Owing to Sc
we're gale from east-northeasta and noun
famous seas breaking about the light
house, Mr.. Sterling could not launch a

learned that Captain Crockett, of aves-
sci in the harbor, saw the signals and
went to the rescue, saving the crew of
