A. A. Comte Jr.
Fairfax Wheelan
Allan Pollok
Although Mayor Taylor an
nounced yesterday ..that no- for
:nal appointments had yet been
made to the ' board of super
visors, it is stated that he has
requested four members of the old
board to serve. They are H. U.
Brandenstein, who was chairman
of the finance committee; Henry
Payot, A. A. d'Ancona and A. A.
Corr.te Jr. It is said 'that Dr.
Tavlor has roughly sketched out
the new board, but will make no
announcement until he has de
termined definitely upon the 16
members whom he intends to
name. Friends of Fairfax Whee
lan and Allan Pollok have urged
their appointment, and, it is said
that Dr. Taylor is > inclined to
favor them.
It is the intention of Dr. Tay-
Jor to select, as far as possible,
men familiar with the work, and
with this in view he naturally
turned first to. the men who had
occupied places of responsibility
on the old board.
OTHERS ARE MENTIONED
There was some talk yesterday
to the that John Connor
arfd James P. Booth, also mem
bers of the old board, would be
given places with the new admin
istration, but Mayor Taylor had
nothing jto say on the subject
In fact, a general ; reticence was
prevalent during the day.- Bran
denstein refused to discuss- the
report that he had been. asked to
serve on the new board, and his
colleagues," who are said to have
been approached on behalf of
Mayor Taylor, \ were equally
averse to talking.
The most important work, of
the board of supervisors \u25a0 consists
in the compilation of the budget
and the adjustment of.-the gas
and water rates. As these tasks
have already ,been completed by
the board, the new 'officials will
be called upon to put into execu
tion the public improvements pro
vided for in the budget. These
include the repairing of the streets
and the construction of the.Geary
str-eetline. _ ,

Great Crowd Gathers About
Palace During the

ITO VISITS MONARCH
Turns Deaf Ear to Plea of
v Ruler to Help Him
Save Throne
TOKYO, July 19.— A dispatch from
~"^hs$ a 4MiM**'-*9b^^£{fiMeEßßto4pV MI "'*WBMI
Seoul says that the emperor of Korea
convened the elder statesmen at 1
o'clock this morning. The cabinet
ministers waited in an adjoining room
while the emperor conferred with the,
statesmen. After a two hours' con
ference his majesty finally yielded and
made up his mind to abdicate. It was
decided to hold the abdication cere
mony at 10 o'clock this morning.
Much unrest prevailed about the
palace and at another place a crowd
of 2,000 assembled. A portion of this
crowd assaulted the office of the Daily
Kokumln. but the mob was dispersed
before heavy damage was inflicted.
The audience of Marquis Ito with the
; emperor, .lasted one hour. It _ls_ re
j ported that the emperor appealed Im
ploringly-to, the former to help say»
Korea from her present} complication
In a manner satisfactory to Japan and
without doing anything derogatory to
the » Korean . court. Marquis Ito, it Is
said, avoided making any
definite reply arid retired without com
mitting himself, i
Japanese Foreign Minister Hayasht
arrived . her late last evening,, receiv
ing- a hearty welcome. He drove to
Marquis Ito*s resldenc.e
: 'A.number of Koreans, calling them
selves elder statesmen of Korea. hay»
sent a long letter to Marquis Ito, In
timating that Japan would receive their
support in fair dealing toward the em
peror, but falling that they would die
the death of martyrs and that the
whole nation would do likewise. They
denied that the court was Implicated
in the sending of the delegation to The
, Hague.
\u25a0 SEOUL, July 19. — Briefly the em
peror In the Imperial rescript of abdi
cation expresses his regret that during
! the 4 4 years of his reign national
I calamities have followed in rapid suc
| cession and the people's distress be
came so aggravated that he deemed It
now time to transfer. the crown to the
1 heir apparent In confromity with an
cestral usage.
RIVER BOAT IS WRECKED
ST. LGUIS. July 18.— A heavy wind
preceding a -thunderstorm . here this
afternoon blew the steamboat Tennes
see, valued at $20,000. against an abut
ment of the Eads bridge, ripping open
the. boat's side and sinking it. with IS
roustabouts on board. The men swam
ashore.
