in THE COMMITTEE

There will be no burial in the
committee of the whole of the city
council of the terminal rate and
common user provisions which are
proposed to be inserted in the

In discussion of these questions
last night the city council heard
both sides of the argument and
listened to pleas by railroad attor
reys and members of the city coun-
Gil for a further postponement Of
action on the issues. A tie vote re-
suited on a motion to further post
pone action. Lambert. Gray, Dalke,
Mohr and Nelson voting for the
continuance, and Funk, Cartwright,
Shaefer. Schiller and Ostrander
voting to report out the provisions.

will be considered along with the
franchise next Thursday night.

WILL HUNTERS GET
THIS BIG GRIZZLY?

HELENA, Mont, March 4.-What
promises to be the greatest bear
hunt ever pulled off in Montana
will take place in the Swan river
section of Flathead county this
spring if all goes well. Joe Valid
bellig, the famous guide, is to be
in charge of the affair.
Jim Keefe, who only returned
Saturday night from the country
about 20 miles from Waldbellig's
ranch, is going and is enthusiastic
about the great quantity of bear
to be found all along the Swan
river and in the district near the
Kootenais.
There is one bear loose in that
district which must be a regular
elephant" said Keefe, land the old
fellow has only three paws" he con-
tinued. Joe Waldbellig caught him
in a trap over a year ago and ne
got away, leaving his right forefoot
behind. Joe has the foot now and
he says that he never has seen
anything like it for size in his lie.
The claws are immense and the
foot weighs many pounds
GLOW do you suppose he got
awav?" some one in the crowd
asked
THE way they all do if they can
get to water" said Keefe. "A bear
caught in a tran will instinctively
seek water. If he can get there ne
will bury trap and all in the mud
and in the course of few days the
foot will rot off Bears never chew
a foot off. Lions or tigers may, but

BIG TRACT SOLD
in mill VALLEY

One hundred. and twenty-five acres
of the finest unimproved land in Mill
valley was sold this week byJ Fred
Schlingman to an Oakland contractor
The price is said to be in the neigh
borhood of $4,000
This tract lies along the famous Cas-
.caie drive. the principal highway of
the town The Shriners at one time
got an option on the tract and thought
of developing it into a fairyland. on
account of the scenic beauties of the
canyon. That plan fell through, how
ever, and 1t reverted back to Schling-
man.
Fine homes have been encroaching
upon this tract on all sides. Some of
the largest show places are along Cas-
caje drive and Throokmorton avenue,
The track begins about where these
two houleyards come together and ex-
tends on up the canyon.
1t is understood that the new owner.
will put UP handsome bungalows and
sell only large lots, SO as to maintain
the high class development of the ad-
jacent district.

port that most of the Camp Tamalpais

The new railroad will naturally
have an interest in bringing in many
colonists to settle up the country along
its line, so as to have as much short
haul freight and local passenger busi-
ness as possible
"Of course, nearly every person who
settles in central or northern California
eventually comes to San Francisco to
see the city and trade, and some will
later on get homes here. Every dollar
brought TO northern California or made
there in time finds its way to San
Francisco banks and commercial
houses. 1t is just such interior busi-
ness that we are worst in need of now.
The Western Pacific will. doubtless
bring back some of the oriental COM
merce, which has been going through
northern ports during recent years, to
San Francisco through its steamship
connections with Japan.
There are many other ways in which
San Francisco will be helped by the
terminus of a Anew transcontinental
line. A very considerable number of
railroad employees will make their
homes here, and large quantities of
supplies will be bought for their over

MELON FOR THE PACIFIC

BY PAUL SINSHEIMER

Statements of the Union Pacific, the
Southern Pacific and the Pacific gas

some degree to tighten the shadow that
the summer months have cast over the
local markets. Here and there the re-
sponse to this influence has been
marked, but in the main it has been
most effective in strengthening conf
dence in western securities.

INCREASED FREIGHT RATE
HEARING.

The decision of the Interstate Com
merce Commission in regard to 'the
increase in freight rates proposed by
the railroads operating in the terri
tory east of Chicago and north of the
Ohio and Potomac rivers will be await
ed with the keenest interest by the
business world and the general public.
However ininitesimal may be the pro

crease, the fact will remain that in
the aggregate it viii amount to mil

It was strongly intimated by one
member of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, during the hearing before
special examiners in New York few
weeks ago. that the railroads, what
ever may be their increased require
ments, would have to abandon the
policy of increasing rates 1t remains
TO be seen whether this is to be the
opinion of the commission as a whole.
Since the increased rates are to 90
into effect in a short time, unless
modified or prohibited by the commits
sion, the issue will be presumably de-
cided soon.

That there Is no provision of law by
which the District can be held respons-

Commissioners following the receipt OF

White, superintendent Of the Govern

amount due the hospital UP to and in

that in the future he viii place the
names Of these patients who remain in
the institution upon the District board
