Andrew M. I^avls and Mayor Mott of Oakland spoke. The keynote was emphasized t>y riolph, who Raid Sn part: "To my tnfnd the significance of %wh an exposition lies not in the fact that your city 1* making so striking a display of her well known energy and enterprise, bnt in the f»ct that you ere showing to the world at large the nrfftlflffff and Importaric* of your wider home, our common home, the Pacific coast. COMMON OBJECT OF COAST CITIES "You Illustrate and emphasize" by your work th« self-evident but not always *u£scl*ntJy realized fact that Eitks, Seattle. Tacoma, Portland.

"The world has 'only just begun to take notice of the golden harvest which commercial interchange with these millions of human souls of the Asiatic continent prornixfg to the enterprising trader.

"Every question that confronts one confronts all," said Jennings. '"From every state comes the same desire and the same effort at advancement- There is n. rivalry, but It is a friendly rivalry ! \u25a0which but increases the closeness of the bond vrblch unites th*m."

Kindelon of Southern Pa cific Company Seeks to Bring AssociatiorWiere [Special DUpaich to The Call] PEOPvIA, 111., June IS.—The twelfth annual meeting of the Association of : Railway Special Agents of the Ucited States and Canada opened here yester day with a large attendance. At the banquet la«t night P. J. Klndelon, chief special agent of the Southern Pacific company, made the speech of the even ing. He is working, hard to secure the r.ext annual gathering for Ban Francisco, and in his speech he said: "The earthquake and fire of April 18, 2305, destroyed that beautiful city, but! San Francisco will rise again and oc cupy the position- which nature Intend ed her to fill. Of this fact onr friends In the east need not doubt, as there is hope and determination enough among: us to do It. "It will take time and energy, bold hearts and willing hands, hopefulness and patience to do it, but it will be done, and when the pinions of the thenlx bird that has been singed eight times grow out more beautiful than before we will -point -with pride to the queen city of the west, San Francisco. She is the distributing point for a region more than 1,200 miles in extent, nortft, south and east, ! which at present is comparatively on occupied. Who can predict the magni tude of San Francisco when every fer tile acre of this magnificent domain is a sea of grain and- a forest of bloom." At today's meeting Kfndelon deliv ered a stirring and practical address on freight robberies and how to stop them. He said In part: ? "We may not be able to stop them entirely, but let us try to cut them in half, and a half loaf is better than no bread. "When you go home go to your gen : eral superintendent and ask him to ! give you a seal record that is abso lutely reliable and correct- Tell him ito use his influence with your car builder to give you a goo<_ car door that cannot be robbed without break- Ing the seal and to cut out the end door altogether. A freight box car should have no end door. I know we should have some end doors for lumber but not- for freight." . " The meeting will close tomorrow, when the place for the next annual meeting wlll.be selected. \u25a0/-' • > BOY BURGLAR BATTLES WITH CHINESE SERVANT Youthful Thief Makes His Es- cape When Defected While the family of Sidney Van Wyck, 2275 California street, was ab sent from home, a Chinese hoy servant left In charge was wakened .about- 3 o'clock Tuesday morning by the noise made -by a burglar in the dining room.

Mrs. J. Shay, 637 Kulton street, was wakened about 10' o'clock Tuesday night by the. ringing of the burglar alarm connected 'with her front door. She went to Investigate and found the door open and saw a man walking hastily away along the street. I Thieves stole 78 piles, valued at $300 which were tied to the wharf at the foot of Twenty-second": street, early yesterday morning, each about 60 feet long.

The committee says: "While we have been unable to discover airy com plete remedy of -abolishing* the stock j exchange itself, we are convinced that the exchange can prevent the worst i forms of manipulation by exercising its j influence and authority over the mem bers to prevent them." Severe condemnation of "matched j orders" Is expressed. lINi! j SUBJECT OP CORKERS' \u2666The subject of corners in the stock market Iras engaged our attention," says' the committee. "The stock ex change'might properly adopt— a- rule providing that the governors shall have power to decide when a corner ex ists and to nx a settlement price, so as to relieve Innocent persons from tne Injury and ruin which may J^ ul^ therefrom. The mere existence of-suclx a ruie -would tend to prevent corners. CONSOLIDATED STOCK EXCBA.VCE The committee describes the Consol idated exchange as a "secondary mar ket of no mean proportion," its sales averaging about 45.000,000 shares per annum. Of this exchange the com mittee says; - '"The fact that its members make a specialty of. 'broken lots,' namely, transactions in shares less than the 100 unit, is used as a ground for the claim that It Is a serviceable institu tion for investors of relatively small means. But It is obvious that ,ita utility as a provider of capital for en terprises, is exceedingly limited, and that it affords facilities for tha moat injurious form of speculation — that which attracts persons of small means.' Under the heading, "Cognate »»b jftcts," the committee discusses hold ing companies, receiverships. the money market and the usury law. It J suggests that stock holders of a «« h " sidiary company should have, the right to examine the books of the bolding company; that the courts might place a short time limitation on receiver ships; . that the questions concerning the money market, which are under investigation by the federal authori ties, could not be adjusted either through exchange regulation or state legislation, and that the New York law, which permits call loans of Ja.OOO or more, secured by collateral, to be made at rates higher than 6 per cent. should b« permitted to stand, as its repeal -would not be beneficial. CURB JfARKET The unorganized status of the curb market, especially with reference to mining shares, la discussed by the com mittee as follows: "Bitter complaints have reached us of frauds perpetrated upon confiding persons, who have been Induced to pur chase mining shares because they are quoted on the curb; these are fre quently advertised In newspapers and circulars sent through the malls as bo quoted. "Notwithstanding the lack of proper supervision and control over the ad mission of securities to the privilege of quotation, some of them are merito- I rious, and in this -particular the curb performs a useful function. The ex istence of the cited abuses does not. In our Judgment, demand the abolition of the curb market. Regulation Is, however, imperative. "The stock exchange should compel the fomentation and enforcement of such i rules as may seem proper for the regulation of business on the curb, the conduct of those dealing thereon. and, particularly, for the admission of securities' to qootatlon." The abuse of advertising is gone into at some length, the committee de claring that much of the discredit in the public mind attaching to Wall street is due to frauds perpetrated by means of alluring adverttaementa. "Another serious evil," the commit tee says, "is committed by men who give standing to promotions by serv ing as directors without full knowl edge of the affairs of the companies." An amendment to the penal code I 3 recommended, providing that any per son who advertises falsely concerning a corporation shall be guilty of a mis demeanor, and that any publisher of a newspaper or other publication who ; fails to obtain from the person re sponsible for such an advertisement a written and signed statement to the I effect that such person accepts respon • slbllity for the same shall be guilty \u25a0 of a misdemeanor. With reference to bucket shops It 1 Is recommended that a feature of the ' Massachusetts law be adopted, making it necessary for conviction to show I only that the bucket shop keeper, fn , tended the trade to be settled by dif ferences and not by transfer of prop erty. j COMMODITY EXCHANGE*] In Its report on "the exchanges that deal in agricultural products the com mittee quotes the report of the indus trial commission of congress in 1901, 1 showing that selling for future de livery, based upon a forecast of future conditions of supply and demand, is an indispensable part of the world's com mercial machinery, by which prices are as far as possible equalized through out the year to the advantage of both producer and consumer. ' \u25a0'\u25a0 "Dealings for outsiders," says the committee, "are usually upon a 10 per cent margin. Obviously if this margin were increased generally, say to 20 per cent, a considerable part of the criti cism due to losses in speculation, par ticularly as to the cotton exchange, : would be eliminated." 1 The committee closes with a review • of the experience of Germany In re \u25a0 strlctlng exchanges and points out the 1 unfavorable results of the German leg islation. The report Is signed by the members j of the committee as follows: Horace ! White (chairman), Charlea A. Schieren, • Ttavld Leventrltt, Clark Williams. John ; B. Clark, Willard V. King.

Cal. — Dear Sir: In answer to yours of recent date in relation to the lands now- being put on the market by-the Alfalfa Lands Company, of which Mr. J. Elliott Jennings is the president, I am pleased to answer: -i That I am personally familiar with the soil 3 of SecUons 12 and 13 of the\ Glenn Ranch, comprising* Jennings Tract No. 2, and know it to be equal to tha best land contained in the 42.000 acres of which the Glenn Ranch was originally composed. This is ideal orchard land, every foot of it, and I believe the time is not far distant when the entire territory, of which the lands you inquire about is the nprthwestern limit, will be one continuous English walnut and almond ' grove. For alfalfa it can not be beat in~the country. As Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce have watched and- closely studied the operations of Mr. Jennings and his company on his Jennings Tract No. 1, and am pleased to say that he has met our every expectation, and have . no hesitation in indorsing his Colony No. 2 project of which you inquire. There is an abundance or water for irrigating, which is-an essential to successful farm- ing in this, section. ' Again assuring you that you can not make a mistake by purchasing on this tract, and that I am always willing to answer such Inquiries, I remain.
