BIG JOB OF SALVAGE.
Revenue Cutter Trying to Bring
Burned Templemore Into Port.

Opinions are expressed in shipping
circles that if the revenue cutter
Androscoggin succeeds in towing into
port the wreck of the burned tombstone
line steamship Templemore she will
have done good piece of salvage that
may save the insurance underwriters
large sum. 1t is possible that the
burned hull can be rebuilt, as was
done in the case of on4 of the steam
ers of the Merchants and Miners line
which caught fire on her way to Boston
and was beached on Long Island
This ship was entirely Quilted by
the flames and her hull plates buckIed
from the heat. but she was found worth
rebuilding and was made practically

Suffrage in California

ho Tue Eultor OF ne Star.
An authoritative answer to the recent
attack made OH equal suffrage in Cali
fornia by Miss Alice Hill Chittenden of
New York has been drawn up by the
chairman of the California state board
of control, Mr.. John Francis Neylan
Miss Chittenden claimed that there had
been an extravagant increase In expendi-
ture since women got the ballot Mr..
Neylan points out that the increase has
been less than in any previous biennial
period in California's history. She said
the last legislature created thirty -one
commissions, which would cost the state
million dollars year. 1t created only
SIX commissions, four of which were
unsaiarled, and the money appropriated
for all six of them totaled only a little
over a tenth of a million year. Miss
Chittenden said the state funds were SO
depleted that California could not make
any appropriation for the Panama
Pacific exposition. The state made an
appropriation of $5000.OO0 for this pur-
pose-a larger sum than Illinois appro-
priated for the worlds fair in Chicago
or Missouri for the exposition in ST.
Louis. Miss Chittenden claimed that
there had been too many useless investi-
cations. Mr.. Neylan says there have
been nineteen in all, sixteen of them
made by the state board of control Of
which he is chairman. In each of these
sixteen cases the official investigated
confessed his guilt and was forced to
refund his stealings. Mr.. Neylan knows
all about recent conditions in California,
and is able to cut up completely Miss
Chittendens comedy of errors If a
battery of great guns had been trained
on a child's mud fort, the destruction
could hardly be more complete. He
demonstrates that there has been in Cali
..H lrAI
economy and driving out of corruption
and graft. Mr.. Neylan says in conclu-
sion: II am convinced that these changes
could never have been accomplished in
the short time of three years If 1t had
not been for the influence of women
upon the politics of California"
