THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, MARCH 15, 1825. AN OAKLANDER'S ALLEGED SHORTAGE, EX-POLICE CLERK LAWMBERT IS MucH NEEDED BY His BONDSMEN. PREACHERS AND BICYCLES. I C. L. WINES aND Miss Lizzie BARSTOW MARRIED BY CoNTRACT. Ex-Coroner Henry Evers and ex-Coun- cilman 0. C. Kirk from the Second Ward were in a ferment all day yesterday over the disappearance of ex-Police Court Clerk W. R. Lambert, who has been out of offize only two days. There is a shortage re- vorted in his books, and the gentlemen first mentioned are his bondsmen. This accounts for their anxiety. Lambert has held the office of Police Court Clerk for two years past, and was removed to make room for another. Thomas Craw- ford takes his place to-day. There have been rumors of the clerk being away, but he has frequently from the office and nothing w this last absence. It was thought t! would turn up after a few da: He was last seen in this city Friends of his have reported 1 him i ranciscoat the G nia sa- loon sir.ce, where he was spending consid- erable money. They that he has no intention of embezz v money, and that he will turn up all right. Be this as it may 1 justat present, his bondsmen are after )nuvx. his books are being experted and the authorities have men at work trying to open the safe in his office, he having neg- ed to leave the combination. Le bondsmen learned vesterday that on T S Lambert leit, he drew from the Union Savings Bank $500 which he had deposited there. Theyhave also made a cursory examination of his ac- counts and think the shortage will amount to something like $1000.

The Southern Pacific last night received a foretaste of the treatment it will receive at the hands of the next City Council of Oakland. The Ordinance and Judiciary Committee of the present Council, the members of which are nearly all re-elected to the new Council, was in session, and had under consideration the widening of Cedar street, which branches off near the Sixteenth-street depot and leads to the West Oakland yards. This street is largely taken up by South- ern Pacific tracks and the Council has been for some time trying to get the company to widen it. There were present A. D. Wilder and Attorney Baker for the railroad. They asked just what was wanted aud finally Heitman spoke up warmly, saying: “Leave the street in such a condition that it can be used. You know as well as I t,tgat we can go into the rts and beat you. ' c‘:"‘llhe talk driibeyd after that to the opening of Seventeenth street to the bay, a measure that the Board of Works had killed. There was some talk about opening the street across the railroad tracks and to the stone 1 that banks up the tracks. Mr. Wilder aid : The railroad does not want to be bothered by the public. Every cubic yard of earth was placed there by’ the railroad and if you break a ll-m"lt, through there will be damages to pay for it.” i This defi aggin brought Heitman quf} and he accused the railroad company o trying to maintain a wall about the city. The Councilman was getting warm and er interrupted him by remnrl..u'xg, “You are only trying to show the po\;;r you possess and ;l:]cxi_ng in a manner unbe- coming a city authority.” Tbis‘\ remnyrk by the railroad acmufiy brought Councilman Mott to his feet. He tr te in July, Lambert' ity. | said: ‘“Never mind about that. It don’t make any difference why we do it. We want to open this wall you have built to the bay line, and we intend to do it.” This seemed to settle the matter, and the railroad representatives had no more to say. % Gathering Them In. Thomas Davis, an enterprising thief,who is not satisfied with one job per day, stole a set of poolballs from the saloon of Fur- eson & Guy Thursday morning and fin- ished the day with a grand clothes-stealing event from the Windsor Hotel He was captured by D ves Shorey and Williams late Thurs night and pleaded guilty to two charges of petty lar- ceny in the Police Court vesterday. He will be sentenced to-day. : Thieves raided the cloakroom of Miss Horton’s private school at Twelfth and Market streets Wednesday and_made off with two hats and an overcoat. The stolen property was recovered in a lower Broad- way second-hand store and the guilty ones were found to be two boys, Joseph de Mar- | tini, 14 years of age, and John Mastenos, a | vear younger, who have given the police | no end of trouble in the last few months. | | The lads pleaded guilty before Judge Wood yesterday, and will probably be sent to the reform school. Charles and Harry Lawson, two brothers who have served terms in the penitentiary and who are confirmed morphine fiends, | company for causing the death of his wife, who was killed by being thrown from an electric-car near Mountain View Cemetery. The Lady Member Talks. Mrs. Dr. Myra Knox, the newly_ elected member of the Board of Education, says that some of the newspapers have accused her of making statements that she knows nothing about. ~ ‘I have no definite plan laid ot for my new work, for I havegmd no experience in that line, and no one has ever spoken to me in regard to the acceptance of the presidency of the Board of Education. “I think that one of the members who has served on the board before would be better fitted for the position than I am.” Still After the Stock. John Chetwood Jr., assignee of the estate of Captain R. P. Thomas, the insolvent banker, has not given up the search for the missing bank stock of the California National that was transferred to D. E. Dowling and then placed out of the reach of Mr. Chetwood. He has_caused a citation to issue from Judge Frick, calling upon Dowling to ap- pear for the second time in court and tell what he knows of the whereabouts of those 1100 shares. The *“Call’’ New Office. The enterprise of the CALL in opening up its handsome new offtce at 908 Broadway has been appreciated judging by the nu- il SPEAKS | THE ‘“CALL'S” [Sketched by a NEW EU FOR ALY HITHE SAN FRANCISCO E CISCO e €A ORI i~ GALL | Bl Sasceions !l Charh ipea.

The members of the Board of Publi Works, it has been intimated, will ma an effort to be continued in office, despite | the fact that the last charter election voted | them out. Atleast this is the case with | two of the members, Messrs. Hughes and Miiler. The third member, Carothers, goes out s00n and is not v articular. | The attorney for the board, George de Golia, said ye | *In all prob: there will be a | made to holdZtheZpresent board in o Sl more than that I cannot say at the present | time.

They would both like to hold on, and it is said that Chief Schaffer was for Davie in | the late el Davie,” said a politician, “but that he | loved Nelson less.” It is said the new Mayor is a man of | warm friendships and will look out for his | | iriends in the distribution of patronage. Ministers Who Ride. Oakland clergymen who ride the bicycle are very indignant at the steps taken by | the Oakland police in their attempt to en- force the ordinance in regard to sidewalk riding and many of them are in favor of taking steps to have the present ordinance knocked out. Rev. Mr. Hobart has prepared an ordi- | nance to be presented at the first meeting of | the ne ¥ Council, allowing riders the ivilege of the sidewalks, provided they tain a rate of speed not exceeding | three miles an hour. Rev. Dr. Williams, the assistant pastor of the First Congregational Church,isa strong advocate of the proposed new ordinance, and says it will save wheelmen considerable annoyance, to which they are eing run down by care- aid: “Give usa common-sense ordi- . We do not expect to be allowed to ride on Broadway, but it will do no harm to allow bicycles on tne sidewalk in the residence portion of the city.” Have Been Married a Year. The many friends of C. L. Wines, the well-kno teller of the Anglo-California Bank of San Francisco, were greatly sur- prised yesterday when it was given out that he bad entered into a contract mar- riage with Miss Lizzie Barstow more than twelve months ago. ‘Why the affair has been kept such a pro- found secret or why they were married in that way is not known, but there were rea- sons which were satisfactory to the parties interested. Miss Barstow is a daughter of the late D. P. Barstow and a niece of Councilman Anson Barstow. She has long been re- garded as one of Oakland’s most attractive young ladies. | Electric Carmen Happy. Employes of the Piedmont Consolidated Cable Company who have been compelled by their employers to put up $20 cash when taking service with the company were ina hagpy frame of mind yesterday when Judge Frick decided that they should be allowed to draw their deposit before the sale of the property took place. The Judge further instructed that $25,000 should also be withheld from the proceeds of the sale to satisfy the claim of Mrs. Wal- lace, who has a damage suit pending for that amount. The case_was stubbornly contested by Receiver Bishop and Attorney Wilson for the company, while the employes were represented {y Attorneys Fitzgerald and Redfield Wins Again. The motion for a new trial inthe Red- field damage case against the Oakland Consolidated Street Railway Company was denied by Judge Greene yesterday. This is the case wherein Redfield obtained judg- ment for $2000 a short time ago, and is the second case that he has had against the corporation. About one year ago he was givgx judgment for 514,&)0 against the tion, “Not that he cared for | g, merous visitors who have paid their re- e 2 d admired the new quarters ar tulated those in charge upon their srtable surroundings.

As now situated the CarLr can readily handle its increasing circulation and also furnish a complete resume of the happenings in the thriving city of Oakland amfm vicinity. Michael Collins’ Visitor. Michael Collins, the murderer of Philip Boogar, the aged capitalist, had a caller this afternoon in the person of James Boyer, a brother of the nfurdered man. The' visitor was accompanied by Jailer Al White, who kept an eye on the man to see that no barm was done Collins, as the men looked very desperate as he stood gazing at the accused man. A Warning to Jurors. John H. Beach, an old man, who has spent the greater portion of his life serving on juries, was sent to the asylum yester- ay. The 0ld man has an idea that he is being pursued by the many men that he has helped convict, and that they are only waiting for a favorable opportunity to put him out of the way. She Was Careless. In the case of Mrs. May Hodgkins against the Alameda, Oakland and Pied- mont Electric Railway Company the plain- tiff was nonsuited by Judge Greene yester- day, on the ground of contributory negli- gence. The costs of suit were taxe d to the defendants. ALAMEDA. Thomas Lindon met with a serious acci- dent yesterday while engaged in painting the roof of the two-story building in course of construction on San Antonio avenue, near Oak street. He lost his footing and commenced to slide, gaining momentum with the pitch of the roof. Before reach- ing the ground in his fall of twenty-five fect he struck on the picket-fence. He was picked up in an unconscious con- dition and carried to his home. Dr. Stid- ham was summoned and found that the atient had broken three ribs over the heart, had bruised his hip and received a cut on the left hand. The injuries are severe, but there is every good reason for his recovery unless he has been injured in- ternally. Road to San Leandro. A petition is in circulation asking the Supervisors to establish a highway, 100 feet wide, from the city limits on Bay Farm Island to San Leandro. It also asks the Supervisors to macadamize the roadbed to a width of forty feet. This isan important improvement, and has been agitated for the past two years. It would give direct connection between this city and one of the most fertile spots in the BState. Since electric cars have been running on the San Teandro county road, it is mo longer a popular_thoroughfare for teams, and the new road, as projected, would get the bulk of travel between Alameda and Oakland. An Easter Wedding. A pretty Easter wedding took place yes- terday at the Park-street Methodist Church. The contracting parties were Miss Mollie Bffirriy RANRTGR TG0 o i city. The church was gayly decorated, and two mini- ature wedding bells hung gracefully over the altar. The ceremony was performed by Rev. F*. D. Bovard. The young couple leit in the afternoon for Monterey, where they will spend their honeymoon. On their return they will reside on San An- tonio avenue. ‘Will Stay Until 1900. John Shea, the young ragamuffin who is beyond the control of his grandparents, was sentenced yesterday by the Recorder on the approval of the Superior Court to the reformatory at Ione. He will remain there until he is 21 years of age, which will be November 9, 1600. Lost Her Chatelaine. Mrs. J. J. Konigshofer was to have left for Tucson, Ariz., yesterday, but discoy- ered at the mole that she had lost he chatelaine, which contained her trunk checks and over §100 in coin. The loss was at once reported to the railroad officials, who delayed the connecting ferry steamer for a full quarter of an hour to make search, but all to no purpose. In the meantime the train pulled out and the trip was postponed. The King’s Daughters. The King’s Daughters’ Society of the Presbyterian church are preparing to give a unique entertainment. programme has been arranged by the young ladies, after which they will serve a conundrum banquet. BERKELEY. The students are criticizing the football management for its dilatoriness in present- ing a financial report of the game for the past season. The last game was played about four months ago, but the student body has as yet no information which will explain the various receipts and expendi- tures. The tradesmen of this eity and San Francisco who had dealings with the team were delayed a couple of months be- fore they could recover the amounts due therz, and some threatened to resort to ex- treme measures before they were satisfied. Despoiled Athletes. Burglars entered the clubrooms of the Crescents early yesterday morning and carried off property valued at $30. A heavy lank window-guard was battered down y the robbers without arousing people re- siding in the front and rear of the building. Scalded to Death. The little child of G. C. Boeddicker of West Berkeley, which wasscalded Wednes- day by a pot of boiling water, died yester- day after lingering in great agony. Peralta Fire Company. A committee consisting of E. Caresy, W. O'Neill, D. D. Keane, G. Bower and A. T. Schad has been appointed to make ar- rangements for the anniversary of the Peralta Fire Company ANTE - ELECTION PLEDGES. THE ATTORNEY FOR THE DIVE- KEEPERS WANTS A CHANGE OF VENUE. JunGE CaMPBELL DENIEs THE Mo- TION AND GIVEs His REASONS. The argument on the motion of Attor- ney Alexander Campbell, on behalf of the saloon-keeper arrested for violating the dive ordinance, for a change of venue, took place before Judge Campbell yesterday afternoon. The cases in Judge Joachimsen’s and Judge Low’s courts had been transferred to Judge Campbell’s court on affidavjts that the Judges were biased because they had adopted planks in the platform of the Non-Partisans regarding the enforcement of the laws relating to dives. Affidavits ing for a change of venue were also filed in Judge Campbell’s court on the ground of bias. Attorney Campbell read extracts from the platform of the Republican party, one of which was favoring restrictive, repress- | ive and suppressive legislation regarding | breeding places of vice and crime, and the | other that the party was unalterably op- posed to dives. Asthe Judge was elected | on the Republican ticket he was bound by | [ the platform of the party, and the adop- | | tion of these declarations he contended constituted bias. He therefore moved for a change of venue. The Judge denied the motion. He had given no pledges to any party, but had only pledged himself to honestly and fgar- lessly discharge the duties of his_office. Besides, the judiciary was never asked to adopt any platform. ~ He “was prepared to -,'ivelthe dive cases a fair and impartial trial. Attorney Campbell urged that the Judge as bound to abide by the decision of Judge )Kur‘\ll¥ in the case of McAuliffe, where it was laid down that it was only necessary for the defendant to allege bias. ““I have eyery respect ior.lungeMurphy’s decisions in criminal cases,” said the >, *‘but I think he never intended his on to be of such a sweeping charac- Ii any defendant alleged personal on my part it would be different. Be- sides, where would you want the cases tried ?” The first case will be tried by a jury on March 19, but meantime Attorney Camp- bell said he would apply for a writ of man- damus to compel the Judge to grant a change of venue. e FOR THE NICKEL TRADE. Gustaf Broman’s Craft an Elegant and Graceful Capsizer. Gustaf Broman, who is to ride his cedar- log canoe around the world, going via Cape Horn if the railroad will not haul him overland to New York for a start on his voyage, arrived by the Arcata. The bold navigator did not sail down in his boat, but stood safely on the steamer and watched the clumsy dugout drag at its towline like a pile. The craft is fitted with contrivances never before seen on land or sea. and hav- ing more depth than beam, is about as safe for passenger service as a bale of hay. Not content with the natural crankiness consequent upon its unshiplike construc- tion the architect has riveted brass chain, plates and other heavy articles to the rail and deck, which further raises her center of gravity, making her an elegant and graceful capsizer. Captain Broman had his boat loaded on a truck and conveyed up town for Tepairs. It is safe_to say that the bold navigator will navigate his uncanny and uninterest- ing craft into some fake museum, and it will be proven that she was designed not fordocean travel, but for the Midway nickel trade. ter. b ——— Cut His Two Brothers. Martin McLean, 5604 Bryant street, got into arow with his brother Peter in a saloon on Third street on Wednesday night and cut him on the face and arm with a knife. Peter was taken to the Receiving Hospital, where his wounds were stitched and dressed. About4 o'clock yesterday morning John, another brother, was taken to the hospital and had a cutin his back stitched and dressed. Martin had also attacked him with the knife. Yester- day Peter swore out a warrant for Martin’s ar- rest on charge of assault to murder, ««Vin Mariani’ is an exqui= site wine, a delicious remedy— pleasant to the taste and bene~ ficial to the entire system.” Coquelin.

RICHARDSON TELLS OF HIS PERILOUS TRIP UP THE VOLCANO. BESTED TWO OTHER NATIONS. MEexIcO ILLUSTRATED BY STEREOP- TICON VIEWS AND DESCRIBED AT PIONEER HaLL. The Society of California Pioneers lis- tened to a lecture at Pioneer Hall last night and learned more about Mexico from D. 8. Richardson, ex-secretary of the United States legation, than they could obtain in a year’s study of geographical or historical works. That they appreciated the descrip- tions given by Mr. Richardson was evident from the frequent bursts of applause. Mr. Richardson read from notes care- fully prepared from data collected while he was in the employ of the United States Government in the southern republic. Mexico he considered a marvelous land, both in history and romance. BEgypt it- self, he said, does not surpass the country as a field for the investigation of archeolo- gists. . “The day of revolutions has gone by,” said the lecturer, “and peace reigns throughout the entire republic excepting internal disarrangements of mountains which no man or politics can control. The press_reports of the eruption of Mount rizaba which appeared on Monday last were suflicient eyidence of that.” Pictures of this famous supposed-to- have-been-dead volcano were thrown upon a large canvas at the end of the hall. White-capped peaks were shown with a black crater yawning near the summit. Three figures were depicted making the dangerous ascent over jagged ice and driited snow. “This majestic mountain,” said = the speaker, ‘“is one of the most conspicuous and interesting objects of Mexicangand- scapes. It towers to the enormous height of 18,000 feet above the sea and can be seen in clear weather at a distance of 100 miles. For many years its heights were consid- ered inaccessible. Its first recorded ascent by white men was made in 1848 by a party of American officers. In 1851 a Frenchman named Doignon succeeded in reaching the top, where he found a staff with the date 1848 cut upon it and the tattered remains of a United States flag flapping in the wind. “If T may be pardoned a reference to fay personal experience in ascending this volcanos sides, I would illustrate the diffi- culties of the undertaking by telling you that only three of a party of twelve who started reached the top. It was agreed that the first one to reach the top should have the privilege of planting his country’s flag_thereon. My companions were an Englishman and a Mexican. National spirit spurred us all forward, but L am happy to say that despite the intense suf- fering I endured Old Glory was placed upon Orizaba, and as faras I know waves there to-day.” Mr. Richardson gave a vivid descripti of the country surrounding the mount: now in eruption, and classed it as “the most desirable portion of Mexico in which to dwell, for there the products of the three zones mingle, corn and coffee inter- lace_their leaves, peach trees lift their heads above fields of tasseled cane, and grapes and mangoes grow together in blooming gardens.” By the stereopricon route the audience was taken through the entire republic, the verbal descriptions accompanying each picture as it appeared leaving the hearers under the impression that they were actually in the land of the Aztee. Exhibits in the National Museun birdseye view of the proposed exh grounds were greeted with applause, while the flag of Mexico could not have been better received had it been thrown on a canvas befdre an audience of natives. A BREAD-WINNER AT EIGHT. WILLIE FERNONE THE MAIN SUP- PORT OF A FAMILY OF FIVE PERSONS. He Rises BETIMES AND EARNS THE PROVISIONS FOR THE CoMING Day. The old building at 5 Hinckley place is the home of one of the city’s youngest{ bread-winners.. It is the home of eight- year-old Willie Fernone, who supports by his earnings a family of five persons. Willie’s father is James Fernone, an Italian laborer, whom fate has treated un- kindly and who has had no steady work for nine months. He came here three yearsago with his wife and four children. The children are 6, 8, 10 and 12 years old respectively. They all attend a kinder- garten on Telegraph Hill, The family story may best be told in the words of the mother, a kindly-featured and brave little woman, who spoke with earnest pride concerning her young flock. “Except for the few pennies' my husband earns working as extra-man at_bootblack stands little Willie supports the family. Heis 8 years old, and besides going to school regularly sells flowers every day after 3 o’clock, when he comes home from school. Willie never comes home from downtown before 10 o’clock, and some- times it is half-past 12 before he goes to bed. Then he arises in the morning at 6 or half-past 6 and buys the supplies %or the day. When he comes back I have the tire ready and cook whatever Willie brings home. “I don’t know what we would do if it wasn't for our little boy. Our other chil- dren do not work but go to school. We have consented to allow Willie to work be- cause he seems to want to do so and be- cause people buy from him on account of his being so small. He makes from 40 to 60 cents a day and could make more, but he has to pay for the flowers he sells. We are often worried on account of his stayin out so late, for he will not come home unti! his bouguets are all sold. The police officers and other people send him home some- times and appear surprised that we should allow him to stay out solate. But you see no one can feel so badly as his mother that poor Willie should have to support the family, We cannot help ourselves, we cannot help ourselves.” e BISHOP MANOGUE'S SUCOESSOR. The Priests of the Diocese Have Ex- pressed Their Choice. The committee of Catholic priests repre- senting the clergy of the diocese of Sacra- mento met at the residence of Archbishop Riordan last Tuesday to express their first, second and third choice for a successor to the late Bishop Manogue. The priests present were Revs. Thomas Grace of Sac- ramento, L. Kennedy of Eureka, M. Cole- man of Marysville, J. J. Hynes of Wood- Jand and the Very Reverend James Lynch, Vicar-General of the diocese of Sacramento. Some time before Bishop Manogue died he asked that a coadjutor be appointed to assist him. He sent to Rome the names of Revs. Thomas Grace, M. Coleman and James Lynch. Bishop Manogue died be- fore the application had been acted upon by the Pope. It has been stated that Bishop Manogue’s selection was confirmed 2t Tuesday’s conference, as the priests are desirous of having a local man to fill the episcopal chair. Next week Bishop Scanlan of Salt Lake, Bxshop Montgomery of Monterey and Archbishop Riordan” will meet and will either confirm the nominations made by the priests or name three additional can- didates. All of the names will then be sent to Rome and the Pope will appoint a Bishop from the list. EendesETE e ARCHITECTURE IN ART. Fifty Students Who Will Enjoy the Hopkins Artists’ Quarters. Fifty architectural students made appli- cation for admittance to the San Francisco Art Association, several weeks ago, and :_zsked that they be given the use of & room in the Mark Hopkins Institute, with the usual privileges of membership. The regular dues are $12 a year, but the students asked that on account of their number they be given a reduction of half the rates. The matter was_referred to a committee of the School of Design and the latter re- ferred it to a special committee. The special committee made a report, which imposed certain conditions, and was ap- proved by the board of directors, who in- structed Secretary Martin to notify the students’ committee. Following are the conditions: g Class to furnish its own instructors and to arrange the course of study to be pursued. Dues from each member, amounting to $1 per month, to be paid to the association for use of room, Class to furnish its own light, fuel, material and furnishings and to be responsible for all damage to the property of the association.

The students will be given the privilege of the art exhibition, but not of the art re- ceptions and social gatherings. EAST-STREET BRIDGE. ©Oaklanders Want It—Channel Street to Be Dredged by the State and Whart Lessees. At a meeting of the Board of Harbor Commissioners yesterday afternoon the subject of the proposed East-street brfdge was discussed. The protest of the people of Oakland against the opposition in the Legislature to the measure was referred to and the following resolution was adopted and ordered incorporated in a message to be sent to Governor Budd: Resolved, That it is of vital importance to the people of this State that Senate bills 60, 61 and 62, pertaining to the bridge from the new ferry depot, be_passed at this session of the Legis- lature. Your co-operation is respectfully so- Iicited. A committee of lumbermen was in at- tendance on the board and urged that the waterway known as Channel street, run- ning from Second to Sixth, be dredged to a deptn of nine feet at low water. The work was ordered done, it being agreed that the expense of dredging should be shared by the State and the lumber people of the locality. S AN ELEVATOR WANTED. Hall of Records Copyists Complain of the Winding Stairs. Joseph Cooney, supervising copyist of the Recorder’s office, and several other deputies of the same department of the city government, are formulating a peti- tion to be presented to the Board of City Hall Commissioners, asking for an elevator in the Hall of Records. Futile efforts in this direction have been made since the erection of the new City Hall. “You see this is frightful,” remarked Mr. Coonev. as he gazed from the third bal- cony ¢f the rotunda building down eighty feet to the mosaic flooring below. ‘“We cannot work _down on_ the lower balconies, as there is not light enough. This is the only suitable place for copying. Nearly all of our copyists are ladies, and they are compelled to make their way up those_two long flights of winding stairs four times a day at least. But I am now speaking only of the discomfort to the attaches of the office. If that is so great, what an inconvenience it must be to the general public. “In the middle of the building an ele- vator could be constructed that would reach to the roof. It would be both orna- mental and strengthening to the strueture. Architects say thisand they ought to know. The expense would not be greav and such an improvement would be the means of averting much harsh criticism now heard on the stair & ANOTHER CUT-RATE WAR. Passenger-Carrying Coast Steamers Los- ing Their Lumbér Trade. Another rate fight is being fought between coast carriers, and promises to be a war to thedeath. Thelumberschooners, steam and sail, plying between San Fran- cisco and the Humboldt Bay ports have been adding a passenger trade to their freight traffic, which cut pretty deeply into earnings of the steamers. The little vessels have no accomodations for passen- gers, but their low rates and quick trips made the new business remunerative. The steamers Humboldt and Pomona retaliated by cutting freight charges in lumber and shingles, lowering the rate of the former from $3 50 to $2 and that of the latter from 25 cents to 10 cents. This is carrying the war into Africa with a venge- ance, for the lumber-dealers, the owners or charterers of the schooners are finding themselves undersold by rivals taking advantage of the cut-rate freight charges.
