NORTHERN CALIF. SWEPT BY STORM SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 10. Wind and rain swept throughout the night, northern California today was still in the grip of one of the most prolonged storms of the winter season. Wire communication to the north was cut off by the high wind which felled telephone and telegraph poles. Slides due to the heavy rainfall were reported by the Western Pacific railroad at two points in Plumas-co. A heavy snowfall hindered the clearance of the rock and earth from the tracks. Minor slides were reported by the So. Pac. in Contra Costa-co. San Francisco bay was extremely rough early today. Traffic via the Key route ferries was held up an hour due to a heavy barge drifting across the ferry slips. Tugs removed the barge. The Sacramento, Yuba and Feather rivers were reported rising rapidly as a result of the terrific downpour of the last 48 hours, although the streams have not as yet reached dangerous stages. Snow at the summit was reported to have reached a depth of 101 inches.

The city attorney ruled this could not be done. Futhermore, it was found that the advertising and amusement appropriations were already well up to if not over the legal five per cent of the general fund. Council voted an appropriation of $200 to a fund contributed to be several So. Cal. cities which will be spent on attorneys and engineers forces in an effort to force down prices of energy from the Edison company. The corporation has offered a reduction and the railroad commission has set Feb. 27 for a hearing of the company to show cause why there should not be greater reductions than those volunteered. Petition of A. A. Mills and 16 other voters asking an election on the question of annexing a large addition to the north and east of the city was canvassed and approved. The election was put for Tuesday, April 4, the same date as the joint outfall sewer bond election. The city election comes the following Monday, April 10. Polling place for the annexation vote will be in Mills' residence on No. Los Angeles street. A new light and power ordinance will be drafted. The light rates have been published. The city manager last night offered a new power schedule. Whereas there is now a standby charge of $1 per horsepower payable May 1, he suggested $5 per year, payable monthly for the first six months. On the average 30 h., p. pumping plant motor, this would make the standby charge $150, payable $25 per month. The energy charge would be $2.75-per kilowatt hour for the first 2000, $2.50 from 2000 to 5030, and $2.25 to 7000. The plant owner would be credited with the standby charge on his bill for energy. The proposed arrangement would make a saving for large users but would be more expensive for smaller motors. The present energy charge starts at $2.11 and runs to $1.70, with surcharge of 27 per cent. HUNGER STRIKER CLINGS TO BIBLE FREMONT, Neb., Feb. 10. — Attempts to break the hunger strike of Mrs. Loretta Schreiner, local woman, who was sentenced to the Dodge-co jail for 10 days for refusal to send her two small children to school, again met with failure today. Mrs. Schreiner has not tasted food since Tuesday morning, when she was first brought into court. She spends her entire time in prayer with her Bible before her on the narrow cot. The woman has thus far shown no ill effects of her fast. She tells the matron that there is nothing unusual about her conduct, as both she and her children have often gone without food or drink for a week at a time.
