GARDEN SOON TO GO.
Famous Madison Square Structure to
Be Torn Down in Spring.

NEW YORK, June 9.-It is now only a
question of less than a year when Madi-
SON Square Garden will cease to exist.
The plans are to tear 1t down next spring.
An $S,OOO.OOO ONCE building will go up on
the site Of the famous house by 1913. A
company organized by Louis G. Bossevain
of Bossevain & Co.. bankers, OF this city.
announces that 1t is ready to close an
option obtained from the Madison Square
Garden Company, and that the purchase
price, S3.5OO.O0O. will be paid within ten
days.
Mr.. Bossevain and his associates Sc
cured the option last April. Then they
went after the $12.OOO.OOO necessary for
taking over the garden and erecting the
business skyscraper. Mr.. Bossevain Sc
cured capital from Holland. The rest was
made up here.
From the time that 1t was erected in
1890 by the original company. of which
D. o. Mills was president, the amuse-
ment place has had a remarkable ap-
peal for all classes OF people. Stanford

Building Good Roads, Too.

The good roads movement is taking
practical shape in California, and the
legislature at its last session passed an
act which was approved by vote Of the
people. authorizing a bond issue Of S18.-
VG.OcO for the Improvement of the high
ways of the state. The expenditure of the
money was intrusted to a commission to
be appointed by the government. IT was
understood that two main highways
should be built the entire length of Cal
east of the Sierras and the other follow
ing FL Canine Real along the coast, but
the arrangement does not satisfy the
towns that do not happen TO be on either
portionment among the counties pro rata
of population, which would not be fair.
because those sections which are most
sparceIy settled need the money most
and are the least able to raise Ii. but the
board of highway commissioners will set
tie that question.
Several of the richer counties have
voted for loans of their own. The people
in bonds to pay for the construction of
a complete system of macadamized roads
radiating in every direction from that
city, and for wide boulevard running
direct from city hall to the harbor at

ts0, and Is building roads with heavy
rock base and surface Of crushed gran
ife mixed with OIL A portion or the mon
ey is being used to improve the old
spanish trails into the surrounding noun
tains
The good roads movement Is active all
over the west. particularly in Colorado,
Texas. Oklahoma and Arkansas, where
Coin Harvey" formerly Of Chicago, is
going about preaching good roads and
organizing associations night and day.
There is no doubt that the automobile
has had a great deal of influence In the
movement. for every farmer owns one.
and California Is interlaced with trolley
lines. You seldom see a carriage out
here nowadays. These are not only a
great convenience to the public, but they
are building up the state. and are the
most effective influence in keeping the
people on the farms With automobiles
trolleys telephones. electric lights and
rural deliveries the farmer has nothing
to complain OF In the way of isolation.
and IL you were to count the number OF
automobiles around the country churches
on Sunday and standing along the bust
ness streets on Saturday afternoon. you
would realize what q convenience they
are. But there seems to be no falling In
the number and value Of horses. They
are as high In price and as much in de-
mand as ever.

SUBURBAN TRAFFIC HEAVY
LONG RIDES ARE VERY CHEAP
BY WILLIAM E. CURTIS.
Special Correspondence OF The Star and the

Chicago Record Herald.
SAN N.FRANCISCO, May 2S. 1911
The Southern Pacific railway is chang
ing the motive power from steam to cleo
tricity on its suburban lines, reaching a
radius of sixteen miles from Oakland
The work has already been begun and the
transformation will be completed within
the next year. Mr.. Calvin. vice president
and general manager, tells me that they
handle million and half of passengers
q month upon the suburban lines, carry
ing them across the bay in ferry boats to
Oakland and from that point distributing
them in various directions within radius
of sixteen miles from the pier. This
radius is being extended gradually east
ward, as there is very rapid growth OF
population In that direction. Before the
fire in 1906 the Southern Pacific handled
about 100000 suburban passengers a
month. Immediately after the fire that
number was doubled. but since San Fran
cisco has been rebuilt the total has grad
ualIy dropped back until 1t has reached
the normal number of commuters, which
is s-bout 100000
The only competition is furnished by
what is known as the Key Route, which
serves a portion of Berkeley and a por-
ton of Oakland. and handles about 40 per
cent of the passengers for those two
cities.
The population of San Francisco. Berke-
ley Oakland and other towns and vii
lagos within the area served by the
Southern Pacific suburban lines is in the
neighborhood Of 100000. and ii is increas-
ing at the rate Of 10 per cent year.
I'VE are adopting electricity in place
of steam.'' said Mr.. Calvin, because we
have to. ard not entirely from choice.
Our steam franchises over several lines
are about to expire. and as the renewals
require electricity we might as we'll trans
form the entire system while We are at
it. The Oldest franchise was originally
granted about forty-nine years ago for
fifty years. for two and a half miles OF
track through what is now the business
center of Oakland We have perpetua
franchises on both ends of this line and
elsewhere A new franchise has recently
been granted for a period of thirty-five
years to take the place of the one that
lapses. 1t requires the company to pay a
fiat rental of SJ.OGO a year into the city
treasury TO- the first fifteen years, and
$500 a year for the remainder Of the
term: we are required to light the street
and to pave between our tracks and two
feet on each side of them. Other fran
chises in other towns and villages are
similar. The Key Route is operating
under a fifty-year franchise on similar
basis.

There are certain indications OF for
midable combination of political leaders

for the support Of each. That winning
combination for Lee can be effected is
doubted even by some Of those who are
ready to join with him, but there is 40
question that 1t will be sufficiently pow
erful to make the fight bruising and
bitter one

sentative j. F. C. Talbot Gov. Crothers.

Lee forces tentatively count on gaining

Nucleus for a Fight,

They regard what Lee has behind him

his ability as a stump speaker and his
attractiveness as a mixer he will be able
to get the necessary number to control.

hostility for German and not love of
Lee his real strength lies in the fact

that II he were nominated there would
be no question about his election.
This is conceded, even by men who are
violently opposed to his nomination. and
is really his main reliance. The weak
ness Of German is the doubt about what
will happen after his nomination. His
enthusiastic friends believe he will COM
mand the united support Of the party
and sweep the state. There are, however.
a good many prominent party men who
would like to see him governor. but who
believe there Is risk involved in nomi-
mating him, and that there might arise
in Baltimore and in the state a revolt
that would endanger the whole party
ticket.

German on Defensive.

1t Is pointed out that the kind of fight
Lee will make will raise the issue of re
dictionary against progressive" with
German in the former role and Lee In the
other. and that the campaign with Cor
man would have to be q defensive one.
AS between German and Lee, 1t is con-
ceded that the situation is in the hands
of Uuited States Senator John Walter
Smith. His influence can nominate either
the one or the other. II he keeps hands
off German. 1t is claimed. can't defeat Lee
in the primaries. as Smiths friends in
the counties are naturally inclined to-
ward him and against Lee. But. as Cor
mans supporters confidently. predict.

the fight the nomination Of the Howard
