This wsr In the Philippines has
aav.-d an Francisco and the coast gen
erally from eerious commercial disas
ter." Thiu declared Hugh Craig, and a a
well-known business man. a former
memoer of the chamber of commerce,
te ought to know what he Is talkng
about
Why, you can ace for youraelf," he
continues, "how this war broke outi
just at the most opportune time for us.
Now don't quote me as approving of
war; that Is quite another thing alto
gether. But If we must have war, It
would be folly to blind ourselves to the
benefits our city has derived and Is
still deriving from it. When hoauUtiea
commenced the Klondike boom had
Just fallen through, and it looked as if
we were going to suffer a severe reac
tion. In anticipation of a continued
rush to the froten regions of the north,
many of our merchants had laid in
heavy stocks, labor bad flocked to the
City in the hope of profitable employ
ment, large steamers, such as the
Pennsylvania and the Ohio, bad been
brought around from the East to
share in the anticipated profits of the
Klondike trade. The market was glut
ted in. every way with surplus tonnage,
surplus (roods and surplus labor.
"Dewey's victory at Manila and thej
subsequent occupation of the Philip-1
pines cnangea ail inis who magic rap-j
Idlty. Trrops poured Into the city, and.
money began to circulate freely. The
torts and saloons were filled with po
tential heroe. the strvet car lines ub
orbedy nickels with avidity. All the
aiwme snips were eitner cnar.erea
or boiight by the government and to-j
day San Francisco Is the home port for,
the largest fleet U transport in the ;
world. The few steamers left were
hardly sufficient to keep the regular
coasting lines going and the lucky
owners reaped large profits. Why, to
give you an Instance, the stock of the
Oceanic Steamship Company hns leap
ed from about H9 to !). where it now
stands."
It Is obvious that nearly every class
of business Is lntivwted In supplying
ire needs of the small army which I
constantly within our borders. The
number of men In camp at the Presi
dio has averaged about eight thousand,
and at present there are some eleven
thousand. Each of these men, soldier
fashion, spends his pay as fast as he
gets It, while many, with private
means of their own. spend far more
than the pittance doled out by Uncle

oP.cers have far more money to burn
thar. the privates. But nay that each
man spends only $15 a month, which
gee Into the pocknts of our retail j
dealers. The sal ion keeper, I ami
afraid, get most of It, but still there Is :
7 ' . .. i
a lot of It left over for otner people.
All soldk-rs do not drink, but In the
case nf disbanded volunteers each man
has to spend a considerable sum In
providing himself with a complete civi
lian outllt. to replace his war-stained
uniform. This makes things lively for
the outfitters.

of the war the transports were siat-

involved much extra expense.
The chaotic state of affairs could not
last long. As soon as It was seen that
the war In the Philippines was Ilk ly to
becon e u permanent Institution, a con
stant drain upon the resources of this
count rv, the government took steps t'
secure a fixed home for Its transports.
The FoNom stiver dock, probably one

the chief of the dock, s thoroughly
