BADLY INJURED
Late Reports Increase the Es-
timated Loss of Life and
Property in Southern
States.
FIERCE BLIZZARD
RACES IN THE WEST
Trains Tied Up, Wires Down
and Business Almost Sus-
pended in Many Places;
Flood in Wisconsin.

INDICATIONS from late reports are
that more than ninety people were
killed, scores severely injured and
great property loss sustained in the
disastrous electrical storm which swept
parts of Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama,
Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas late
Thursday afternoon and night, Eighty
odd deaths have been reported and the
total loss of life probably will be in
creased when wire communication is
restored in remote sections devastated
by the cyclone. The damage to prop
erty cannot be estimated, but will have
to be computed in millions.
Twenty persons are reported to
have perished in Georgia and damage to
property is roughly estimated at $1,000
600. Calhoun, Gordon county, Ca, and
vicinity bore the brunt oil the storm in
this state. where eleven persons are re-
ported to have been killed The other
fatalities in Georgia were nine at Tuck
er, four at Eaglesville, three at Clarks-
ton and two at Columbus.

Appropriations Similar.

| BY peculiar coincident. the total ap-
propriations OF the legislature OF this
year are almost exactly the same as the
| total of the appropriations OF two years
ago The total appropriations of two
years ago for state purposes. with the
iish and game appropriations included In
the general appropriation BILL amounted
TO s3.516. 1879. In addition. the legis-
Iature made a special appropriation of
s750.0o making total of 81, 2Se. .41s.To.
OF this amount the governor vetoed Items
in the amount of $4,000, leaving tine to-
tai appropriate tons SIS, 1856, 1873 The total
appropriations this year, including the
FISH and game appropriations, are s3,-
194.o2s.29. an excess of $4,000 over the
total appropriations OF two years ago.
However. two years ago S76o,000 was
appropriated for the capitol construction
from the Hartman lnherita nce tax. This
Inheritance tax was an addition TO the
statc funds which had not been antici-
pated In the estimate OF the revenue.
The appropriations for general state rur-
poses, therefore, were about s750ooo less
than this year The increase this year
comes in increased appropriations to
various departments several new build
lngs for state institutions, appropriations
for the California fairs and for Indian
war veterans and increased approprie-
tions for road construction,
To aid In the reduction OF the amount.
the governor will probably veto several
items The governor may veto any item
in the bill. except items appropriatpg
funds in accordance with statutory pro-
visions The bill also gives the governor
the power TO withhold appropriations for
new buildings until such time as he be-
lieves the revenues OF the state warrant

inheritance TAX for the ensuing two
years will more than equal the 100000

MOTHERS PENSION
LAW COMPLICATED
Problem Arises Over Opera
ton of the Bill in
Utah.

Serious question has arisen as to the
operation Of the proposed mothers pen
sion law, which has passed both houses
Of the state legislature and is now
awaiting action by the governor. The
doubt is caused by the fact that the
bill proposes to make the law operate
under the jurisdiction Of the juvenile
court in cities of more than 125, 1000
population and under the county COM
missioners in other counties.
County commissioners under the law
are directed to supervise the expendi-
ture Of all funds appropriated by them.
The bill awaiting consideration by the
governor provides that in Salt Lake
county the commissioners shall appro-
pirate the money to be paid as pensions
TO mothers, but that the administration
of the law shall be under direction of
the judge Of the juvenile court, who
is appointed by the juvenile court com.
mission and is therefore a state officer.
1t is suggested that while there may
be no constitutional provision violated
by the bill, there is reason to suspect
that there may be occasion for compli-
cations TO arise from the fact that
county Officers appropriate funds which
are disbursed by state officers. In 1909
meut of clerk OF juvenile court for
each county and the fixing Of the
salary with the juvenile court COM
mission, state body, the salary,
however, TO be paid by the counties
In Salt Lake county the county COM
missioners didu't like the appointee
and refused to appropriate anv funds
for his salary, The county com
missioners won the fight as the juve-
nile court commission feared that in
case the county commissioners per
sisted in their refusal to pay the salary
il would become charge against the
state. 1t is pointed out that similn-
situation might easily arise out OF the
operation of the mothers pension law
II the governor does not sign or veto
the mothers pension bill today it will |
become a law without his signature. |
The bill was received by the governor |
March 10 and he has five days in which
TO sign the bill, The five days expire
today.
I The bill provides that every county
in the state shall appropriate funds
sufficient for the purposes Of the act,
not. however, exceeding $4,000 in any
ono year. The funds are to he distrib-
nted to mothers who are forced to work

q AN FRANCISCO, March IA
Lacking information upon which

skePtical of the good faith in which the
Union Pacific submits it's modified
plan for dissolution Of the Hartman
merger Of the Union Pacific and South
ern Pacific properties, in obedience to
the decree of the United States su-
preme court. In telegram to Attor-
ney General McRcynolds the commits
sion wrote today:
1.-The supreme court wants these
lines to be unmerged and we will
prevent, if we can, combinations in
such unmerging.'
For want OF fuller data, the commits
sion withholds its approval. Continu-
ing its opinion, the commission wrote;
"We cannot understand why, in
fairness to this commission, the new
traffic agreements were not disclosed
to us when this matter was presented
We assume, of course, that these roads,
acting in good faith, expect to comply
fully with the provisions of the consti-
tuition and statutes of California so far
as applicable to their affairs, and it
may be that our fear with reference to
this matter is unfounded.
