SENT MESSAGES BY MAIL. Grand Jury Says' Companies Collected $1,000,000 Illegally. San Francisco, June 18.--A sensa- tional arraignment of the Western Un- ion Telegraph company is contained in the report of the special committee of the grand jury which investigated the charge that telegraph companies ac- cepted thousands of messages in the days immediately following the fire which were sent by mail and messen- goer. This 'report was adopted by the grand jury. The enquiry was conducted more es pecially into the action of the Western Telegraph company, but the commit- ter declares that from such testimony as it was able to adduce other tele graph companies also violated the public confidence, though in a lesser degree, The report scores the Western Union for failure to make proper effort to restore its wires and then says, in part : ' "The evidence of the post office offi- cials is that more than half of these telegrams were addressed to points in the burned district. It is estimated by vour committee that at least $1,000,- 000 was collected from all parts of the United States and Europe by the telegraph companies for messages which were not transmitted by tele- graph, and your comshittee has not been able to find that the telegraph company has contiibuted one cent to- ward the relief fund. "Your commitiee would recommend an indictment of officials, but for that section of the law which requires evi- dence of the false obtaining of a sum of over 850 to make it a felony." Attention is called to the fact that the senders of- messages which were handled in this way are by law, en- titled to the return of the tolls and 850 liquidated damages for each mes- sage. The report recommends that the evidence be laid before the federal grand jury and sent to President Roosevelt. i ------------ Dr. Chown's Buchu-Juniper Kidney Pills for kidney and bladder troubles, be.

If a Thoroughfare is to Continue | 'There--The Property to Be Fenced by Episcopal Cérpora- F tion. k- is the. fatention of the episcopal corpora' to ce in its property in front of the Hotel Dieu, used for the past twenty years as a thorough- fare, This action is taken in view of the road ing in a state of irrepair. It is learned t the only thing that ican be done to have the land contin- [ned in use ad a thoroughfare is Jor the city 'to purchase it. Unless this is oom, fences will be erected. on Brock and Johnson streets before very long. "The city council has referped the noti- 'fication of the episcopal corporation to the of works for a recom mendation t A month ago, at the instance of Ald. Rigney, a committee of "the council was appointed to confer with the episcopal 'corporation as to an ar- rangement whereby the city might keep the roadwa¥ in repair without being legally held liable for accidents. As a of the committee, Ald. Rigney wrote the archbishop asking for a conference, but was informed, in reply, that the intention was to fence in the property and that it would cease to be a thoroughfare. The idea was common that it would be impossible to close up the place now, as the property on either corner was sold on the understanding that the thoroughfare 'was to continue. However, it seams that such is not the case, and that fences can be erect ot by the episcopal corporation at its pleasure, Some months ago 'the city rebated the taxes on the land in question, in view of the benefit 'it was to the people as a street.
