The bishop was placed In charge of aecurlng funds, both . for emergency- werk In Ban Francisco and for a fund for rebuilding the church, and ether Methodist In stitutions, the total loss on which was over 1750,000. "I left -San Francisco Id March to at tend eastern conferences In New Tork, Now Huoisbire and . Vermont, . but my family wua In Ban Francisco a' the time of the earthquake," said Bishop Hamilton. "No word could be had from my lanuiy until Saturday. ... Our house was made uselesa by the chimneys being ahaken down, the dishes and water plpea broken and otherwise destroyed. Although two and a half miles from where the fire started the Are burned to within a block and a half of our house. "Mywife and family had to line up with others and get .bread and water and suc ceeded In getting our furniture by paying an enormous price to a suburban church. Finally they got to .Los Angelea. B(ore I had heard from my family I started on this rellet work beginning Orst with Boston. Next ta the Roman Catholics the Methodists lost- more, than . any other church,, the- toss to buildings alone in San' Francisco, and vicinity being $7W,(M.

"I have visited Boston, New Tork Philadelphia, Chicago, Cincinnati. Dayton irtd Pittsburg, 'Organising relief committees In all these cities. I am also chairman of the relief work In San Francisco and will go from hero there. So far S have secured about $60,000 for the permanent building fund, but the work Is only begun and extensive plans are being laid. No mere plate collection will take care of this emergency.- Some of the moat, worthy noor are accredited christians who have lost all. "M first work waa to look after the salaries of the preachers who had lost their all, -had no houses of worship and their congregations were dependent. These men were needed to hunt up daervtng cases which demanded Immediate atten tion, and to see that the money donated In the east reached the right spot- So the salaries of these men had to be paid ao they could have something to work with aad means to send their families away until a place could be provided for thpm. All this has been done and I have already sent considerable emergency money which has been raised, besldea the general fund for the rebuilding of the churches. , Will Meet Committee Funds. "I expect to be in San Francisco to meet the committee Monday to look after the distribution of the funds. Wa will have to determine which churches are to be re- built and put on their feet.

"if It were not for the loss of life In the San Francisco earthquake, the cats a irophe might really have been worth the price, to se 'such n exhibit of phllan thropy all over the world. Never has renponse for help been so generous- and ' general. "I wish you would for me, tn behalf of the people of Ban Francisco, whom I rep- resent, thank the people of Nebraska for the nronmt.. aeherous and needful out- pouring of supplies which were handed over to the t'nlon Pacific to hasten to the hflp of the needy." The Methodist hospital was the scene of a notable gathering this afternoon. The cornerstone was laid by Bishop Hamilton who also made the principal address. Governor Mickey, accompanied by Mrs. Mickey, came up from Lincoln during the day and attended the ceremonlea, the gov ernor making an address. Veteran to Plan Resales.

EARTHQUAKE AT AUDITORIUM Great Moving Pletare Show if the a a Fraaclar Dlsaater Bearias - Meat Moaaay Mght. Beginning on next Monday night, and running four nights, the great moving pic ture ahow of . the San Francisco disaster will hold the stage at the Auditorium. These moving pictures were taken by Miles Bros, of San Francisco, the same Arm who produced the superb moving pictures of the Britt-Nelson prise light. Miles Bros, have a world-wide reputation for taking the best moving pictures obtainable, and It Is safe to aay that their pictures of the San Fran cisco disaster are by far the beet obtained. This series of moving pictures will take the spectator on a trip up Market street as It appeared before the earthquake and fire. It will show the buildings falling, the flames eating their way from block to block, the firemen struggling with the de vouring elements and dynamiting the buildings and the atricken people hurry' ng hither and thither In wild confusion. it will also show the people camping In the park and the distribution of food and clothing, and, strange as It may seem In the face of such appalling disaster. It will show some very comical and amusing slghts, .particularly among the dwellers In Golden Gate park. . where millionaires and laborers were associated together on common level. It must be said to the ever lasting credit of the people of San Fran cisco that they withstood this appalling calamity with a courage and cheerfulness almost superhuman, and while thousands were rendered homeless and obliged to sleep , and eat In th open air In Golden Gate park, there were many incldenta of cheer fulness and even humor, which helped to lighten the gloom and Inspire the people with new hope. These great moving pictures have been showajn Shubert's theater. Brooklyn, and the Klsw ft Erlanger theaters of New Tork and Boston, where they drew large houses. They are beyond question the finest pictures taken of the 8 an Francisco disaster. These pictures will be put on by Mr. Edward Vinton, an expert moving picture man of many years experience. Mattnt will begin at 8 o'clock and the evening performance at 8:80 o'clock. AUTO MAN PROVES HIS CASE Bradford and Hla Lawyer Demon strate Armament by Problems In Mathematics. D. C.

Aa the same time the accused re marked that It waa practically Impossible for him to take the Farnam atreet hills and stay under the twelve miles an hour limit. "But," said he, "I was arrested and fined before.

OBJECT IS CHEAPER FREIGHT RATES With Caaataat Oaasltloa of f'kleaga, Mlaaaarl River titles Have Dllltealty la Getting ' -Fair Treatment. Omaha and Kansas City may get to gether and establish a line of barges on the Missouri river for the purpose of reducing rates on freight shipments to and from Missouri river points. The matter will be put before the Omaha Commercial club and the Grain exchange by F. P. Klrkendall. who was approaches on the subject In Kansas City Wednesday by a committee of the Kansas City Cham ber of Commerce. This body Is consldur- Ing seriously the launching of the project, and has sent a man east to find out th rest of building bargea. Its members believe that with the co-operation of Omaha a transportation system could be put in operation on the Missouri which would completely demoralise existing rail rates and compel a reduction. "Chicago always has been agalnat ua on the matter of freight rates, and always ill be," said Mr. Klrkendall. That city lights against every rate proposition that will benefit the Missouri river cities. It Is hard to get any reauctlons from the rail road a with Chlcaao worklna aaalna ua, but wl.h water transportation In our favor, the railroads would be compelled to do something. We can send our corn and wheat down the Missouri and the Mississippi and we can bring back our dry goods, hardware and groceries by the same route at a much less rate than wo are now paying the railroads. tfeVana Doabts the Sareesa. Secretary McVann of the Omaha Grain exchange says grain could be shipped from Omaha to New Orleans by water much cheaper than It now goes, and that dry goods and merchandise could be brought In from New Tork by way of New Orleans at a much less rate than now obtains from New Tork to the Missouri river by rail. Mr. McVann doubts the feasibility of the plan, citing the failure of a similar project several years ago. The first venture came to grief by the sinking of th ateamboats which Kansas City placed on the river. This same danger would have to be encountered again until pilots came to. know the river. 'The greatest advantage of a barge line," lys the Kansas City star, "would be safety from either fire or snags. If fire got beyond control on one barge It could be separated from the other four, towed by the same boat, and only one-fifth of the cargo would be lost. If a snag should go through one of the barges It could be buoyed up by the boat and other barges until the damage was either repaired or the cargo transferred to one of the other barges. As the loaded barges would draw the most water. It would always be one of the $3,600 crafts that would be snagged or grounded, and the towboat would always be free to render assistance to a disabled barge." It la estimated that five barges of 300 tons each and a towboat would cost the same amount aa one steamboat of 800 tons capaoity. Btllonaaeas pad Cvnatlpatloa.
