RESENT TURNING OF
PICTURES OF FORMER
RULERS OF GERMANY
Members of Krieger Verein
on Warpath for Men
DONE IN LODGEROOM
French Odd Fellows Believed
to Have Made Old Foes
Face the Wall
Members of the Deutscher Krleger
\crcin are on the warpath and threaten
woe to the men who turned the pic
lures of Wilhelm I.* Frederick II and
Wlllielni II to the wall of the hall in
t!i© Re.i Men's building. 240 Golden
Gate avenue, which the German vete
rans share with a lodge of French Odd
Fallows. Not only is the reversing of
those pictures deemed a desecration of
the whole German imperial dynasty.
but it is also considered a personal af
front by the veterans, many of whom
fought In the ware which brought
united Germany out of a chaos of
principalities and kingdoms.
These warriors, who smelled powdor
' q.t Sedan and camped at the gates of
Paris, openly charge that the French
Odd Fellows are responsible and allege
that they laid hands on these choice
possessions of the Krleger vereln to
put this slight upon rulers of the
fatherland. The portraits are held al
most sacred by the veterans, as they
w«»r*» presented to them by the present
kaiser as a mark of his especial re
curd for the men who fought to make
him emperor. When the pictures,
\u25a0which are finely executed steel pn
{rravlngs, arrived. permission was
asked to hani? them on the lodgeroom
wall where they would be safe from
molestation- :_:: _: TZK
AROUSE BESEXT.ME>T
They were not. The first Wednesday
In each month the lodgerooms used by
the Krieger verein Is occupied by
French Odd Fellows. Entering: upon
the work of the lodge immediately, the
<-*-remonlee were half over before the
additions to the framed charters and
other pictures were spied. One French
man focused the attention of his neigh
bor upon them, and soon every mem
ber of the lodge \u25a0was sending bitter
e lances at the presentations of what
ivas most hateful to them. Many of the
v»Jd Fellows had gone through the
war in which Alsace and Lorraine were
iaken by the enemy. Must, then, the
Frtrschrnen meet under the very eyes
of their conquerors, those who 'had
two fair provinces from them?
Not so. For as soon as the lodge
was closed the center of the floor -was
i a ken by 20 speakers, each advocating
••omethlng more dire than his fellow
orators and all intent on putting the
l-ictures out of s'grht. Bitter memo
ries of the woe the vanquished sus
tained came welling- to the French
mtn't minds and tears rolled down
many cheeks as one veteran recounted
the hardships he had suffered.
"^ was in Parl6 when he (pointing
to the grim visage of Wilhelm I) sat
<iown before our gates. I ate horses —
»=uch tougrh. old horses — and when the
Worses failed, ate rats; also my patent
leather boots. Never shall I forget
i !:ose boots, and here I find a man who
made a rat catcher and a boot eater
staring at me in my lodge. What shall
we do?" and he wept In memory of
the days of siege.
TCRXED TOWiHD THE WALL
Others •were moved to tears and
rone (officially) saw two agile mem
tiers of the lodge who mounted chairs
r.nd turned the whole Hohenzollern
dynasty with its face toward the wall.
Strangely, a burst of applause that
*hook the walls burst forth, and smiles
\u25a0broke through the gloom that had
srlowered upon the faces of the French
men. None of the lodge members
knows anything about the picture
turning (officially), but the Uhlan
j=eouts of the Krieger verein are out
and will solve the mystery, they say,
apprehend the culprits and take re
venge—what r«venge has not yet been
«t:ggcsted; at least nothing bad enough
has come to mind. "When it does."
say the Kriegers, "then let the French
men look out." The siege of Paris will
not be a patch to th« horrible atrocl
lies that will be accorded the guilty
if they can be found.
As the whole affair occurred within
the walls of th« lodge, when the sub
ject Is mentioned to the Frenchmen
guilty looks are seen, followed by a
self-satisfied smile, and with a shoul
der shru£ a general denial Is entered.
What will be done with the pictures
has not yet been decided by the Krie
ger verein- It meets before the Odd
Fellows, and measures to protect the
imperial steel engravings will then be
saken.
CHINESE MERCHANT LIES

BUSINESS MEN PLAN
TRAFFIC BUREAU TO
CONTROL COMMERCE
Promoters Will Meet in Mer
chants' Exchange to
Perfect Details
TO PROTECT SHIPPERS
Encroachments of Rival
Cities on Trade Territory
to Be Combated?
A truffle bureau.. barked by practic
ally all the businessmen of San Fran
cisco, may be launched at a meeting: to
be beld next Monday In tbe Merchants'
exchange building-. Such is the present
Intention.
Tbe purpose* of this traffic bureau
will be manifold. Through It the In
terests of every shipper of manufac
tured jcooilh or r«»r material will be
furthered. Car Hliortagea vrlll be ob
viated, so far ns poMslble ( freight trill
be routed by the shortest connecting:
llnrK, and lower rates trill be contended
for.
The trade territory of San Fran
cisco will be protected against en
croachments by merchants of other
sections and in addition to all this the
traffic bureau will stand as a watch
dog to point out any way in which the
trade bed of the city can be extended.
This bureau, if the present plans are
carried through to perfection, will have
the services ,of one of the foremost
traffic managers of the United .States,
who has not been engaged, but who
will be secured if money can buy his
services and a contract can hold out an
inducement.
This was decided upon yesterday.
Representatives of the Merchants' ex
change, chamber of commerce, board
of trade of San Francisco, Merchants'
association. Manufacturers' and Produ
cers' association of California and the
Ship Owners' association conferred, co.n
sidered a plan which has been tenta
tively prepared, expressed their ap
proval of the idea and their willingness
to co-operate and retired to secure the
indorsement by their respective boards
of trustees and directors. If favorable
action Is secured * there will bo no
hitch in the proceedings next Monday.
A constitution and. bylaws, in which
the aims and purposes and obligations
of the traffic bureau and of those who
are to back it are explained, have been
prepared and are In the custody of T.
C. Friedlander, secretary of tha Mer
chants' exchange.
Those who are concerned in the move
say that there will be no lack of money.
They also say that the time has ar
rived when, by reason of the encroach
ment of rival cities on the coast and in
the east upon the trade territory of this
city, San Francisco must act decisively
and unitedly or be a large loser. -
All the conferences that have taken
place have . but strengthened tne con
victions of those In tbe lead that the
time is one of trade- emergency.. The
present plan is to have the traffic bu
reau attached to the Merchants' "ex
change, and situated in the Merchants'
exchange building. The support will
be derived from stated contributions
from possibly 2,000 business houses of
this city, which will subscribe to pay
so much each a month, according to
their business transacted or willingness
to help to build up the city In a trade
way. - -' : T : %:,
The Merchants' exchange and the
chamber of commerce simultaneously
decided, through their executive bodies,
that a traffic bureau should be insti
tuted. On consultation the chamber
of commerce representatives partic
ularly decided to co-operate with the
Merchants' exchange.. All the commer
cial bodies then- were called Into con
ference. In the last fortnight rapid
progress has been made. Inquiry has
been set on foot concerning the quali
fications of trafficmen and of their
willingness to come to San Francisco
to head and conduct a great fight for
the welfare of all commercial interests
in this city.
The exact plan of the organization
is not given out in express terms, but
is outlined generally by some of those
who were present at meetings that
have been held.
W. L. Gerstle, chairman of th« "com
mittee-representing the ' chamber of
commerce, said last evening: ..
"The Merchants' exchange will or- !
ganiee a traffic bureau next Monday.
All the committees that havo assem
bled, representing commercial organ
izations, have expressed their approval
of the general plan. If. their trustees
and directors approve, which is, I think,
probable, the scheme will hare practic
ally the united, backing of commercial
San Francisco. Each organization will
report Its decision in this regard next
Monday, when, a meeting will be held.
A traffic manager, the best that can be
engaged, wlll.be selected to head the
bureau. It is necessary to have the
bfßt. for the interests at stake are
large and no one but a man of large
experience, knowledge, and skill will
do. He will have not only, freight
problems, but also passenger matters
to deal witiu "We need to act to meet
the moves of Los Angeles, the cities of
the states north of us and all comers in
fact, who are striving to get our trade
territory. This will not be., enough.
We need also to hold what we have
and to reach out . as aggressively . and
extensively ais we can for, more."
President C H. Bentley of the cham
ber of commerce said that correspond
enoe had begun to find out who was
the best man for traffic manager.*

MONEY TO ERECT THE
MEMORIAL SCHOOLHOUSE
Board of Education to Use
Coin Subscribed by
Children :
• The supervisors' building committee
recommended to the finance . committee
yesterday that the sum of % 37,000 .: be
appropriated for th»; purpose of aiding
In the building of-* memorial school
house for whlca th« school children
throughout the - United- States sub
scribed $28,000 last year. :
- President WsJsh of ; the board : of . ed
ucation said' that -It was, intended to
erect the schoolhouse In _ Greenwich
street near. Fillmore at a cost of $65,000
and «\u25a0 it : would '\u25a0;, be v ": given the : name of
Yerbaßuenai school. : : -
r: The : ; committee also ..' recommended
that th* \u25a0 building now occupied ; by the
relief ; • corporation at the . corner of
Geary and Gough streets be rented for
$200 a month - and that $5,000 ,be ap
proprlated . for \u25a0 Its equipment as the
commercial high school.
. The board of education urged that
some other location be found for the
board of health, which Is occupy*
Ing a school lot in O'Farrell street near
Pierce. The board desires to erect the
girls' high-school on the. lot at once, as
: $16,000 Is. available for. the purpose.
The equipment of the two new high
schools will do away with half day ses
sions,- which are proving unsatis
factory.... -
The committee decided that it would
be .'advisable to. make exchanges in the
building ; of' schoolhouses under the
bond issue* so that those most urgently
needed would be erected at once. It
was : suggested that the Golden Gate
school' be built instead of the McKlnley
school, but formal action was post
poned. . \u25a0
