BUSINESS
ACTIVITY
HAS BEGUN
Flour Shipments Are Al

Proportions.
A GENERAL REVIVAL IMMISMT.
Early Inquiry From the East
for California Canned
Goods,
OPINIONS OF LOCAL MEItCHASTS.
Leading linns Say Trade Is Steadily
Increasing and Money
Plentiful.
That the deplorable condition of busi
ness which the Democratic calamity press
rants about from day to day exists, for
the most part, in the disordered imagina
tions of interested soreheads seems to be
proved by the statements of some of
Ban Francisco's most reputable business
men, and that the revival of business is
not alone an iridescent dream of the
future, but that already a substantial im
provement has begun, is the testimony of
some of the oldest and largest business
houses on the coast.
That this improvement is not confined
to any particular class of business is also
true, yet In some branches the renewed
activity has become manifest earlier than
in others. The opinions of men at the
head of largo business enterprises will
doubtless be accepted by the public with
more credulity than those of politicians
whose means of subsistence is dependent
upon their ingenuity in charging the Na
tional administration with responsibility
for every business failure in the country.
Ii appears an assured fact that a prosper
ous season in many particular branches of
trade has already begun in San Ft an
cisco. In tbe flour business the demand
is greater than it has been for months
and much trouble is experienced in pro
curing transportation.
Said G. V?. McNear of the Port Costa
Flour Company yesterday: -'Business
generally is in a very satisfactory con
| dition. We expect that next mouth flour
| shipments will bo very heavy. Business is
! improving s'endily."
P. S. Teller, a member of the firm of
Morton, Teller <fc Roden, wholesale pro
vision dealers, said: '-Business is improv
ing. In fact the improvement has been
steady for the past two or three months. I
consider the outlook for. future vety
bright and anticipate a large fall trade."
fcaid Bernard Ileiss of the tirm of Nen
burger, Reiss & Co., importers of dry
goods: "I consider the outlook good and
the prospects lor a brisk fall trade are
much better than last year. In my opinion,
as soon as the taiiff is settled business will
increase in all parts of the country."
Castle Brothers, importers and commis
sion merchants, were very sanguine and
said: "We consider the outlook' very
favorable for a good fall trade. Inquiries
from the East for California canned goods
have not only' begun earlier than usual,
out are much m ire numerous, both of
which facts indicate that there will be a
larg fall trade in that line. I think the
. eneral desire is to have the tariff settled,
wh:c!"i will restore confidenca throughout
the Union and merchants v. ill feel more
disposed to do business."
Captain William L. Merry, secretary of
the (Jhaniberof Commerce, said: "It must
be remembered that this is the dull season
of the year, consequently we have no right
to expect a business activity equal to that
of the late fall or early spring, out there is
a decided improvement in feeling regard
ing business matters resulting from more
activity in the money market, thereby
allowing more money to be used in in
dustrial and commercial enterprises, and
the faith that the tariff bill will' produce a
beneficial effect on California products, if
possible, more than on those of any oiher
part oi the country.
"There is also a feeling of hopeful expec
tation on the coast that Hawaiian annex
ation will bring additional business to
Pacific Coast ports and induce imm gra
tion to the islands. Also on account of
tbe clause in the tariff bill which, if car
ried ihrougn, will fac litato and improve
tbe chances of American shipping by rea
son of the 10 per cent ad valorem which is
charged against ships under foreign colors
that are competing in carrying the im
ports coming into the United States witb
American bottoms.
"The principal drawback to this coast,
and an universally accepted fact, is that
we cannot get immigrants to come into
the State and settle up our lands owing to
the increased cost of transportation across
the continent; the increased cost repre
senting to the immigrant the value of
acres of land, and he generally considers
it a better policy to buy in the great mid
dle West rather than spend his money in
passage to the Pacific Coast. So well is
tnis recognized that the people of this
coast are universally looking to the open
ing of the water-way through Central
America for cheap transportation of the
products grown hereto tne. Atlantic sea
board and for importation of the products
of the Eastern States and Europe, to
gether wiiii cneap immigration, a* being
the solution to the settling of this coast.
"The Biiuation, on the whole, is very
hopeful for California; more so than it
has been for two years, and that we are on
the eve of an era ol prosperity is certain."

Creosoted Lumber Versus Steel for
Wharves— White-Crane Hunt
ing Booms.
The Harbor Commissioners received
quite a surprise at yesterday's meeting.
John H. .Miller, the attorney, wrote stat
ing that the system of concrete flooring
now being laid down in the ferry deoot
was an infringement of a patent held by
himself and Calvin Brown. He also noti
fied the Commissioners that th y would
be held responsible for, the infringement,
and that the contractors would be joined
wiih them in a suit for damages. The
matter was referred to the board's attor
ney lo report on. .77
Chief Engineer Holmes made a report
on the destruction of Folsora-street wharf
by fire, " He laid the blame fox the rapid
spread of tbe flames to the creosoted tim
bers used in the construction. As a pre
servative be said creosote was excellent,
but declared that he would advise that in
future no creosoted timbers be used ex
cept for piling purposes or in cases where
the lumber would be covered with earth.
Mr. Holmes also submitted plana lor the
reconstruction of tbe destroyed wharf,
and recommended that the superstructure
should be of steel and the floor of ex
panded steel covered with concrete. The
cost will be in the neighborhood of $35,
--000, or $10,000 more than a wharf built
with creosoted lumber. President Colnon
objected to the extra coat, and said that
the board had no funds with which to pay
it. He liked Mr. Holmes' idea, but did
not see how it could be carried out. Com
missioner Harney also thought it would
not be right to run into an extra expense,
and while he liked the idea of a steel
wharf, still he thought that one built of
creo-oted lumber would do. Mr. Holmes
was finally instructed to finish the plans
for a steel structure, and the board took
the matter under advisement.
Quite a romance came to light on the
water front yesterday. R. L. Levensaler.
brotner-in-law of Captain James F. Chap
man and cashier of the firm of James F.
Chapman & Co., went away on a vacation
and came back a married man. The
groom is in the neighborhood of 55 years
of age and all bis numerous friends along
the front have always considered him a
confirmed bachelor, he bad had Irs love
affair, however, and away back in Thom
astown, Me., Miss Elizabeth Dunbar was
waiting to hear from him again. Last
mouth she received the lonc-looked-:or
letter and at once started for California.
At Reno, Nev., she was met by Mr. Leveu
saier and the marriage ceremony was at
once performed. The long-parted lovers
then journeyed leisurely back to San
Francisco and have now gone to house
keeping. The groom has been subjected
to a eood deal of good-natured chaffing,
but he takes it all in good part and to
every one says, "It is belter late than
never."
The Oceanic Steamship Company's Aus

The Christian Endeavorers are In trouble
over their baggage. In spite of the fact
that many of them nre now on their way
home, there are still 750 or 1000 packages
of th irs awaiting delivery at the ferry
depot.: besides about 2010 more in th
hands of the transfer companies. The
rush now is to get the trunks in order- to
take them home again, and hundreds are
still searching in vain for their missing
baggage. Over 100 pieces should have
gone away witn passengers by the Port
land steamer, but not one of them was
delivered, and the matter is now in the
hands of the Oregon Railway and Naviga
tion Company.
Nearly ail the seal hunters will go to
Central America bunting for the feathers

failure as far as the hunters and sailors
are concerned. Many of the vessels nave
paid off, the : men getting -in some in
stances $1 and in other $150 for six months'
work. When they learned yesterday that
two of tbeir .-" members had made $3000
apiece they determined one and all to go
white-crane hunting, from her* the
hunters go to San Diego, and from that
point hunt the coast sometimes as far
south as Panama, Fish, birds, turtle and
oysters are abundant and ail the hunters
fare well.
The steamer Homer is to start for Tahiti
the first of next month, and should the

WAS IT SUICIDE?
An Unknown Man Found Dead at Point
Lobos With a Kopg Around
tils Neck.
C. D. Dearsoff of 1217 Mission street was
strolling along the beach near Point Lo
bos yesterday when he came upon the
dead body of a man in a cleft of the rocks.
Without waiting to make any closer ex
amination of the corpse Dearsoff notified
tbe life-saving corps near by, and the
whole force turned out.
Tne crevice in the rocks in which the
body lay was at the foot of an almost per
pendicular bluff and was hard to reach.
The man bad evidently fallen or hnd been
thrown from the brow ol the cliff above.
The life-savers worked for five hours be
fore they succeeded in getting out the
corpse. Then it was taken in charge by
Coroner Hawkins to await the verdict of
a Coroner's jury. . :.7* "- '-.
There was nothing on the perron of the
deceased by which he could be identified.
He had not been dead for more than two
day*, and the features were not too much
disfigured to prevent identification. Tne
deceased was about 65 years old and wore
a white mustache and chin beard. The
body was without hat or coat, and was at
tired in a brown vest, brown pants and
gaiter shoes. Around the neck was a
piece of window cord looped, and with
the free end broken. The neck showed
signs of strangulation, as there was a deep
red furrow where the cord had almost ent
into the skin. By the side of the body
was an empty whisky flask.
The corpse is marked "unidentified,"
and lies in a box id the Morgue.

The Movements of Endeavorers and
Melting Away of 27,000 Pieces
of Baggage.
Endeavorer and reduced rate travel was
not so heavy last night as on Monday
night, wheu ninety - two sleepers nnd
coaches left on the through trains, all
loaded with people. From "appearances
the Eastern visitor j will take their time
about leaving. They will continue to
make side trips and visit Southern Cali
fornia, so that it may be some weeks be
fore it can be said they have returned.
Some of them, as the Southern Pacific
officials recount, will not go at all, but
will remain in this State. "Of 27,000
pieces of baggage," said General Passen- !
eer Agent Goodman, "there are but 150
pieces now. I have just been down at the
baggage-office, and was gratified to see how
it had all been claimed."
General Freight Agent C. F. Smurr was
in consultation with J. A. angle of
Guaymas, manager of the Mexico, Ari
_ na and Sonora Railroad, and J. G.
Schriever, traffic manager at New Orleans,
who have arrived here, in regard to
lirough traffic to and from California
points and to and from Eastern points.
The road managed by Mr. Naugle is tbe
one which is about to be transferred for
the one between Mojave and The Needles,
owned by the Southern Pacific Company.
The former is 353 miles long, and extends
Irom Benson to Guaymas.
It will taee two or three ' days probably
before the tariff rates are" fixed. Mr.
Naugle says that things are in good con
dition in Sonora, where he makes his
headquarters.
"There is no boom there," said he, "but
there is a healthy condition of thing?.
There are a good many En lisb, French

people are going there, too. The minerals
are very rich. There are all kind, includ
