Washington April 24. Speaker
Cannon vand the leaders of the
house machine once more have
made assurances to the thoroughly
distressed Missouri and Kansas rep-
resentatives tint statehood will be
given Oklahoma before congress is
adjourned. Coupled with this al-
leged promise is the announcement
that congress probably will hold on
until the middle of June.
These promises of the house ma
chine which did so much before to
stop the pressure for statehood
should be accepted with much men
tal reservation. Those who favor
ed the admission of Oklahoma have
become alarmed at the attitude of
the senate conferees. Apparently
Senator Beveridge is trying to hold
ae whole matter over until the
short session of congress. What
the Indiana senator may want to
do in this matter and what he was
able to do are separate and distinct
propositions. Senator Beveridge
was whipped to a standstill when
the statehood bill was before the
senate.
The senators who made the fight
'or the admission of Indian Tetri-
tory and Oklahoma and the elimin-
ation of New Mexico and Arizona
have beeu for weeks so thoroughly
engrossed in the rate bill fight that
they have paid no attention what-
ever to statehood. Expressions se-
cured today from leaders on both
the republican and democratic sides
who led the fight for the elimina-
tion of New Mexico and Arizona
showed that they were determined

Connecticut Fire Insurance Co.
of Hartford Coun. April 23rd 1906
At this date no advices have been
received from San Francisco and
no definite estimate of the loss can
be made. Insurance offices have
been demolished arid records in the
main probably destroyed. From
data at the Home Gffice however
and assuming the worst aspect of
the case we can assure you that
the Connecticut is able and will
promptly and fully meet all its ob-
ligations in that stricken and de-
vasted city and elsewhere as usual.
You need have no apprehension as
to its present and continued sol-
vency and success
Sincerely yours

postoffice address
San Francisco April 24. Ar-
rangements for the reconstruction
of the new and greater San Fran-
cisco are rapidly crystallizing and
soon the sounds of building will be
heard in every block of the devas
tated district.
The blowing up of the ruins in
the business section has already be
gun and is now well under way.
There will not be a dangerous ruin
standing on Market street by this
afternoon A largesquad ot artillery
men assisted by the municipal au-
thorities have beeu dynamiting all
tottering: buildings and walls. This
work has so far been confined to
Market street in order to open a
safe artery from the outlying dis
trict to the water front. The dis-
trict north of Market street and
the business section will receive the
same treatmeHt after Market street
is clear.
A commission Sunday investigat
ed all the buildings left standing
upon the main thoroughfares of the
devastated city. It was ascertained
that nearly all the steel frame
structures had withstood the earth-
quake and although almost with-
our exception they had been gutt
ed the loss was in most cases con.
fined to the contents.
As showing the disposition pre
vailing among property owners of
the city the action of the Hum
boldt bank which will at once erect
a new building seventeen stories in
height may be cited. Two months
ago plans were approved and con
tracts let for the building and
steel for construction's already on
the way from eastern agents of the
contractors
Yesterday orders were given to
go ahead with the work of build
ing.
"Build fast" was the order and
this means the expenditure of every
possible energy that money can
purchase for the construction of
the building. The site is on the
south side of Market one hundred
feet east of Fourth The site cost
$400000 and is held by its" owners
to have every cent f its original
value today. The building will cost
500000. The construction will be
steel and terra cotta a construction
that has stood the test by fire and
earthquake.
San Francisco April 24.-F0II0W
ing the rain which fell Sunday
night and yesterday morning which
greatly intensified the misery and
suffering of the homeless people of
this stricken city last night was
one of comparative comfort and of
greatly improved conditions. The
night was clear warm aud balmy
aud there was less suffering among
the thousands of refugees camping
under the blue canopy than at any
time since the day of the terrible
disaster. The condition of the
people is constantly growing better
The relief work is being better or
ganized with every succeeding day
and the distribution of provisions
and the providing of shelter is daily
be:oniing more systematic and me-
thodical. Yesterday afternoon wagon loads
of quilts comforts and blankets
Were distributed among those who
have suffered intensely from the
cold and exposure while sleeping
in the open. Other wagons loaded
with tents wended their way through
the crowded parks and replaced
tnanv improvised shelters which
1
afforded little or no protection
against the rain and chill winds
with water proof canvas tents. As
a result there were but few com-
plaints of suffering this morning
While the heavy rains for the time
being added much to the misery of
the homeless it did much towards
improving the sanitary conditions
throughout the city.
At 10:40 last night an earthquake
shock was felt throughout the city
and momentarily created alarm
among the people still unnerved
and overwrought from their recent
experiencer No damage was caused
but iu some few tustauces persons

If your everyday tailor could put as much thought
imagination skill and time into his customers' orders
as our Stein-Bloch tailors put into every suit and over-
coat made in their shops that tailor would be sought by
the wealth and fashion of the land.
Stein-Bloch can afford to do it and can command
the skill. Rightness is a Stein-Bloch habit.
We want to make your pants. We keep the tailor in
the house to do the work. We have the Woolens to make
them from. You can stay and see him do the work it
don't take long. Bring your suit to us to press. Get
the habit.
