BERLIN, Jan. IS.— The Boerse showed
reveral strong features last week. While
the market was disappointed over Fin
ance Minister Rhcinbeben's pessimistic
is iterances on the business situation, and
lewer estimates in the Prussian budget
for railroad pupplles than were expected,
»alues were generally well maintained.
The most striking feature of the week
v as th« recovery in the shares of ocean
navigation companies upon the announce
ment that the dividend for the Hamburg-
Amerii-an Steam Packet Company would
roach 4Vi per cent, as spalnst 6 per cent
last year, whereas operators had expect
rd a dividend of only 3 per cent. The
statement issued by the Hamburg com
pany that the outward freight market
had greatly improved through heavy ship
ments to the United States also aided the
recovery. The foregoing announcement
carried the chares of all ocean naviga
tion companies up strongly.
The second feature of the market wan
ihe strength of coal chares as a result of
the coal scarcity in the United States, the
abolition of the coal duty in that country
and the large -shipments of English coal
to the United States, operators arguing
That there will be an Increased demand

banquet last night at Johannesburg

"It is a fact that $50,000 has been sub-
Fcrlbed toward the endowment of the uni
versity. Early last week Dr. McClish. the
president, received a proposition through
me that if he closed up tho second 125,000
during the week a gentleman in this city
would furnish the last $300. Late on Sat
urday night I received the gratifying In
telligence by wire from Dr. McClish that
he had met the condition and would ex
pect the $300, which has already been
most cheerfully griver.. We have now to
get another $50,000, and I have no hesita
tion in saying that we shall get it. There
wtf a proposition to begin with by which
a gentleman of this cily would give the
munificent sum of $25,000, providing the
whole J1/W.000 was raised. I do not in
tend to let the matter rest, twenty-four
hours before beginning to look toward tho
raising of the next $50,000. I have very en
couraging prospects, but the word from
Dr. McClish came too late Saturday night
to allow of my having a .conference with
the parties who have giVen such great
support and those who still promise
further support in this Important matter.
The university ought to be encouraged
because it Is the oldest one on the coast-
Its alumni are in prominent positions
throughout the States on this Coast. It
¦was tho first to open its doors to women
and rlso to Chinese, students. I may say
that of the $50,000 already received, $1000
has been 'given by Chinese merchants of
this city. I wish to say that we are deep
ly indebted to The Call for the generous
interest it has taken in this matter and
I fully appreciate the powerful editoria;
which appeared in its columns in support

which we are truly thankful.

The Colonial Secretary announced that
Lord Milner had agreed to call a confer
ence of the South African colonies to
consider matters of coyimon interest, in
cluding the question of native administra
tion and legislation.
Chamberlain urged the desirability of
increasing the white element in the colo
nies and said they wanted more brains
and less muscle. With this in view he
advocated the establishment of a univer
sity which would be superior to anything
In the world. Ho opposed any importa
tion of labor until all the resources for
developing available labor had been ex
hausted, and he suggested that this sub
ject be considered by a royal commis
sion. «
"In theory we have stopped slavery."
added Chamberlain, but many philanthro
pists at home would be surprised to hear
that we are encouraging it in another
and worse form, the Kaffirs idea being
to buy wives to keep him In Idleness. The
black'race is Increasing with great rapidi
ty, and unless it can be settled in a regu
lar industry it will prove a danger and a
difficulty."
Chamberiain warmly repudiated the
rumors that there had been many ignoble
bargainings for the imperial consent. for
the introduction of Chinese labor, saying
such bargaining would have been almost
treasonable on his part. He went at some
iength into the labor question and said
there was plenty of labor If the Kaffir
could be made to work.
Referring to the details of the financial
proposal, the Colonial Secretary said it
must be borne In mind that^ll the propo
sitions hung together, that one part could
not be separated from another. There
was no doubt in his own mind or among
those whom he had consulted that the
revenues of the Transvaal would be am
ple to provide a service debt. The action
of a number of South African financiers
In subscribing the first $50,000,000 without
commission or any preferential security
lor the remainder of the loan had ren
dered the success of the loan on the Lon
don market quite certain. He believed
the people of the mother country would
accept the war contribution as an ade
quate and liberal recognition of the
Transvaal's duty to the empire, and value
it more for the spirit in which it was of
fered than for the relief it was likely to
afford the exchequer.
Chamberlain then explained that no war
contribution had been asked from the
Orange River Colony, whose revenue was
only sufficient for ordinary expenses, but
that in the probable development of the
country he thought it would not be unfair
a few years hence to ask for a moderate
contribution if the resources justified it.
KAFFIRS ARE A MENACE
Referring to the position of the people
of Johannesburg, Chamberlain said they
should no longer be reproached with be
ing cosmopolitan money-seekers who did
not aspire to settle in the country. He
explained that it had been his idea to ask
for a much larger sum than anything yet
mentioned, but on a plan of yearly con
tributions from surpluses and j new
sources of revenue. He said it had been
represented to him,, however, that this
plan might become a burden on the new
generation who might regard It under the
odious name of "tribute to . the mother
country." Thus it might sow the seeds
of dissension and disunion and cause
great danger. He felt the force of these
arguments and he therefore sought in
stead to secure some practical, and im
mediate settlement. This, after much
discussion had been obtained in a form
acceptable to his Majesty's Government.
DUTY OF THE TRANSVAAL
JOHANNESBURG, Jan. 18.-In the
course of his remarks at the banquet
given here yesterday. Colonial Secretary
Chamberlain said, . after expressing his
hope that the colonies would deal with
the matter in a manner looking to the in
terest of the whole of South Africa and
the empire, that all his information led
him to believe that the Boers were set
tling down to recover their positions and
repair the damages of the war with the
resolution of their race. He painted in
glowing colors the promising prospects of
the colonies when development shall have
reduced the cost of living and when race
prejudice shall have died out.

MENTO, Jan. IS.— Senator Emmons of

that there are now 179 attaches in the
Senate, and out of that number many
have never reported to the proper officials
and have not even been seen. The reso
lution will demand that a committee re
port the best way, to curtail the present
expenses In the Senate. * .
In discussing the matter to-night Sen

ATTACHES TOO NUMEROUS.
Perhaps the most radical feature of the
proposition which Assemblyman McCart
ney will submit is that It changes the
method of paying members of the Legisla
ture and also increases the legal limit of
the biennial sessions. Instead of allowing
each member J8 per day for sixty days,
his plan is to make their salary the fixed
sum. of $1000 for regular sessions, and
when they are called in extra session they
shall receive $400 for the "services then
rendered. The duration of any one session
is proposed to be limited to 120 days in
stead of sixty days as at present.
it is argued that with a fixed salary the
members will not find it profitable to re
main in Sacramento longer than the 120
days proposed as the legal limit of all reg
ular sessions. Extra sessions are to be
limited in length to not more than fifty
days. Instead of specifying a given
amount which shall be allowed to each
house for the employment of attaches, the
proposed amendment will specify just
what attaches shall be employed and what
salary shall be paid each of them. . "~
The reason for makinp a proposed con
stitutional amendment of this measure In
stead of introducing it as a. bill is that If
it became merely a statutory enactment
any Legislature w*uld be able to change
it. On the other hand. If It be approved
by the people and incorporated, in the
State constitution future Legislatures
could neither amend nor disregard it. It
has been argued against the proposed
measure that It is not sufficiently elastic;
to meet contingencies which may arise in
future, but its author declares that it Is
better to have the measure Ironclad than
to have a scandal over patronage at every
session.
CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA

Assemblyman McCartney will to-morrow

per share. This Is to put all associations upon
the same basis — both those incorporated before
and after 1S01. Paid up stock and prepaid
stock may be Issued in accordance with the
by-laws. The obect is to give all associations
this privilege, not confining it to those incor
porated before 1891. and to Introduce features,
which have been found successful in Eastern
associations. The changes made in section 635
are those made by the Code Commissioners in
1900. and those by the Legislatures in 1UO1.
Paid up stock is defined as. such stock as the

In order that the laws might be made
to operate uniformly upon all these asso

body is legislative in its character and is
open to all associations that may desire

are held in San Francisco, at which these
and similar subjects are discussed. The
league prepared at the las£ session of the
Legislature a bill which was very strong

PROTECTION FOB YOUTH.
Devlin says this amendment is in line
with the views expressed by Governor
Pardee in his Inaugural address. Another
reason for having the Legislature meet in
February is on account of the weather.
It Is cold and disagreeable here dur
ing January, and many of the
Senators and Assemblymen suffer Illness.
But the most important point to be con
sidered is the suggestion made by the
Governor that the election be held in Sep
tember, in order to Blve the elective of
flctrs an oppbrtunlty to study the needs
of the State before being inducted into
office. . , . - ,
Senator Devlin of Sacramento is pre
paring a constitutional amendment to
have the Legislature meet in February bi
ennially. This will be presented to the
Senate to-morrow.
¦ One point of Importance upon which the
Governor insisted is that there be a proper
check upon all the expenditures of the
commission and that vouchers be re
turned, so that it may be known at any
time just what is being done, how. much
money is being expended and what uses
are being made of the finances of the
State which have been intrusted to the
commission.
- It will be for the commissioners to de
cide Just what kind of a building they
will erect, and they will, of course, be ex
pected to consult with the Governor about
such matters of detail. Such matters can
not be Included in the bill, however, and
the measure was drawn by Senator Smith
with a view of conforming strictly to the
wishes of the Governor.
CHECK ON EXPENDITURES.
Smith will introduce on Tuesday
a bill providing for the appointment of a
commission, to take charge of whatever
display will be made by v this State at the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition, .which Is
to be held in St. Louis next year. The bill
will provide that an appropriation of J150,
(XX> be made for, that purpose. One of its
most important features Is the provision
that the commissioners shall be chosen
from among those who have had actual
experience in exposition work. This means
that whoever represents California at St.
Louis will be expected to work to the in
terests of the State, and no merely deco
rative commission will be , appointed^
There will be no repetition of the scenes
which made California headquarters at
Paris a place popular even with Parisians.
During 1 the campaign Governor Pardee
frequently expressed himself as being In
favor of a liberal* appropriation for the
proper display"- of California products at
St. Louis. He did not mention any par
ticular amount nor has he done so as yet.
When Senator Smith went to see him first
it was with the proposition that $200,000 be
appropriated for that purpose. This was
Immediately declared by the Governor to
be too large. Then the sum of $130,000 was
mentioned and although the Governor did
not commit himself to the support of such
an appropriation he gave Senator Smith
to understand that his bill would receive
careful consideration ana suggested that
it be filed early. While the bill is pending
the opinions of those most interested can
be secured and whatever changes may be
decided upon can be made in committee.
