8 MONEY DISTURBED BY SILVER TALK, A New Question Arises to Paralyze Busi- ness. BANKERS ARE PUZZLED. After Getting Rid of Taxes They Are Confronted With More Trouble. SUMMER DIVIDENDS MADE. | The Hibernia Bank Reduces the Inter- est on Deposits—Future Is in Doubt. At the close of the first six months of 1396 the local savings banks find finances dull, money in a rather limited supply and interest almost as low as it could possibiy sink. The bankers were in hopes that on July 1 their troubles over interest due to the Ban Francisco tax rate of 2.25 per centum would be at an end, and that the next six months would be more fayorable | to depositors. Everything pointed to a largely reduced rate of taxation, and with such a prospect it was inferred that inter- est would advance in proportion. Now, however, at the turning of the tide bankers are confronted with altogether a different condition, which makes a mate- rial change in their calculations. In fact, as managers of the saviegs banks putit, the cry for free silver has completely thwarted all plans, and the financiers are asking themselves, like Cleveland, **Where are we at?”’ The Hibernia Savings and Loan Society announced yesterday that the interest paid by that institution had been reduced irom 4 to 33 per centum. The Columbus Savings and Loan Society, the Savings and Security Savings Bank, the Humboldt Savings and Loan Society and the San Francisco Savings Union declared divi- dends of 4.32 per centum on term deposits and 3.60 on ordinary deposits. The German Savings and Loan Society paid 4.26 and 3.55 per centum, the Mutual Savings Bank 4 sand 3.33}5. The Columbian nking Company declared a dividend of 6 per cen- tum on its paid up capital. Lovell White, cashier of the San Fran- cisco Savings Union, said that conditions as he founa them in the savings banks signified no distress. “Money is not in vlethoric supply,” bhe said.” “There is enough for the needs of the people, but it does not press on the loan market. Inter- est rates are the same practically as in last January. There is no cheap money, as there is employment for ail available coin. To-day is dividend day, and the de- mand for dividends and maturing notices is less than usual.” *“What does this signify 2"’ ““That there is no monetary distress; also that the people are loth to employ money or take returns. If business was active we wouid be loaning out more money. “‘The tax question and the silver question are the bugbears of this country to-day. They are checking enterprise, and until the tax rate is settled and the silver ques- tion disposed of, at least in the minds of the people, there cannot be much revival of business. People are living from hand to mouth, and banks are affected the same | way—hand to mouth. There isnothing | that denotes a boom or a healthy condi- tion of society. The banks will suffer in common with the community on the | silver question. H “Bankers see great disaster, not_to| themselves alone but to the community, in the free coinage of silver. Banksand | capitalists will suffer less, but they de- plore it ali the same in the interest of the public. It would be a clean-cut fight be- tween common-sense and madness if the Democrats should dissolve in favor of the free coinage of silver.” The president of the German Savings Bank said that bankers generally were waiting to see what the political parties were going to do with regard to gold and silver. *This silver agitation upsets se- curities;” he added. ““With it before you you cannot tell anything of the future. 1f the money question is settied favorably to the gold standard, even by the Democrats in their National Convention, it will belp things a great deal.” ROSE COGHLAN ROBBED. She Arrives Bewailing the Loss of a Silver Set Lost From the Train. Rose Coghlan, the actress, who arrived here last night from the East, says she was robbed on the train of her contracts | with several theatrical companiesand of | her daintily engraved silver toilet articles, The thief entered the palace-car pre- | sumably at Winnemuceca, Nev., and made off with the actress’ satchel, which she had carefully placed under her berth be- fore retiring for tne night. The porter informed her that the agent at Winnemucca had telegraphed that a satchel supposed to belong to her had been found near the station. Miss Coghlan was a little mortified and amused when, in rePly to an inquiry, the answer came: ‘Nothing in bag but papers, genuem-n'l boot and child’s soiled blouse.” Miss Coghlan says the articles taken comprised a silver-backed hand-mirror, given her last Christmas by Sadie Marti- not; asilver soapdish, a silver shoehorn, a silver button-hook, and such things—all engraved with. the initials “R. C.” Then there was a large gold-stoppered scent bottle and a pair of pins set with large vaste diamonds, s parting gift from her little adopted daughter. < hfurt from this experience,” said Miss Coghlan, “I had a delightful trip across the continent. I open here with ‘Car- men,’ but I hope to do ‘Madame’ dur: g my three weeks' engagement. ‘Madame’ was written by my brother, Charles Cogh- lan, and proved a great success in Nsw York. From here 1 mnl{ go directly to London tosee ‘Max O'Rell’ staged be{ore 1 play it in Chicago.” OLYMPIC CLUB DOINGS. Instructor Clarke Will Be Reinstated. A Purse for Maher and Choynski. The Olympice Club directors held a very lengthy meeting last evening. A petition from Professor Harry Clarke, the m ming instructor, and signed by hundred members was presented for his reinstatement. As there was other business of more im- portance to be transacted the petition was laid on the table to be acted on at the next meeting. Director Short was instructed to inform Clarke that he could go to work again_until such time as the club will take final action in his case. It was decided that the interior of the building be renovated. Paintersana deco- H rators will be put to work in a few days embellishing the departments that require overhauling.

A Limb of the Law in the Ferson of Marshal Creed Swoops Down on Two at Sausalito. The Sausalito minnions of the law have determined that the poolmen shall not have things all their own way during the absence of the Town Trustees. Yesterday City Attorney Silva swore out warrants for the arrest of P. Berrieros, who rents rooms to Harry Corbett & Co., and E. Westerson, from whom Harrison & Co. rent rooms. Marshal Creed made the arrests, and, upon the prisoners’ demand for a jury trial, the cases were set for July 11 and 12 respectively. Both Corbett and Harrison have licenses for commission houses which do not expire until July 15,s0 a nice legal point may arise at the trial as to whether the Town Attorney hada right to | arrest them when doing business under a license, A SEAMAN'S PLAINT. Says He Was Unjustly Treated at the Sailors’ Home. Dennis Noonan is an American seaman, He was discharged from the bark Meirose, and left the hospital in Honolulu and came to this City on a pass given him by the American Consul. Upon his arrival, being sick and desti- tute, he applied for admission into the Sailors’ Home, which was once the United States Marine Hospital. With him were a Scotchman and a Swede, who also wished to be taken into the home.

Chinese Highbinders Out in Force Ready and Eager for War. Shooting Affray Prevented by the Prompt Action of Two Special Policemen. - A highbinder war, which threatens to assume an unusually serious ¢ haracter, 18 brewing in Chinatown. At any moment the police patrolling the Mongolian quarter may be startled by a fusillade in some one of the dark alleys. They expect 1tand are confident that before ihe See Yup-Sam Yap controversy is concluded, many a fighting Chinese will have passed into his celestial home. Yesterday afternoon, at 1 o’clock, Wong Sing Long, president of;the Wong Bociety, and a number of his followers held a meeting for the purpose of discussing the warlike situation in a small room on the third floor of & brick building on the cor- ner of Clay street and Brenham place. They were chatting peacefuily on the See Yup complication when “in stalked five highbinders, members of their own family, society and company. The intruders were strongly in favor of deciaring the boycott off the Sam Yup Company, and believing that Wong Sing Longand his oa!lnfue- ad determined to stand the boycotting combination con- cluded to resort to force of arms. Imme- diately upon entering the council room the fighting men drew their revolvers. Pandemonium then reigned supreme. Jabbering Chinese fell over one another in the little room in their endeavors to es- cave. This move was so unexpected that the highbinders bad no opportunity to use their revolvers for fear of killing one of their number. The noise of the conflict finally resched the ears of two special licemen, James Belyeaand William Mc- tery, and before the Chinese, who were benton murder, had achance to single an enemy out of the group, the officers were in the rcom. They seiz the nearest Chinerh and -m;hu;;u:i 2 :dng- pistol from ;nsr im under arrest. The other binders escaped. Sergeants Helms, Wollweber and Har- per, the latier ha: the Chinatown squad under his command, are anxious that no killing shall be done and are using every means in their power to prevent it.

The Chinatown squad with Harry Hook in it is bad enough, and the porch- climbérs, bamboo-tooters and their kind know enough to keep away from it, but | this new squad—The Roof Squad—is some- thing out of the ordinary and ‘‘de gang feels bad.” Told in a few words the thing is simply this: When the different athletic clubs in this City began giving pugilistic exhibi. tions at the Pavilion the place was always | t crowded. But the box receipts failea to show that the attendance was full paid. Then the Mechanics’ Institute began send- ing in bills of from $300 to $500 for dam- ages, brea! of windows and other un- satisfactory baps. This gave the managers the first cue to the situation and the police were called in to stop up the holes through which the deadheads crawled. They only succeedea in a partial way. When Jim Corbett, with his business education at the hands of Billy Brady, was to get 50 per cent in the four-round go with Sharkey, he made sure he would not get much the worst of the deaaheads. He appealed to Chief Crowley for a ial set of officers. They were not ¢ n from the regular force, but among stout and active men in other lines of business or professions. P. D. Linville, a | Ligh former officer on the force, was placed in charge of them and his ‘‘roof squad” is now a thing of permanency. Instead of parading up and down the street in front of the Pavilion, the new squad, like 80 many cats, patrol the roof. This is no easy matter where the slant is at an angle of more than 20 degrees. But the men wear spikes in their shoes, and, club in hand, they march up and down protecting the cupola windows, through which, heretofore, more deadheads came than through the front door. During the progress of the Corbett- Sharkey fight a_thousand men and boys were clubbed off the roof. They were not hurt much, but tapped just enough to make them understand it was not as easy as it used to be to beat the box-office. Similar arrangements have been made for the fights to be held to-night and the porch or roof climbers unhappy. NEW BOXING RULES, James Fleming Carroll Has Revised the Queensberry Rules and Believes He Has Improved Them. Jimmy Carroll, the ex-champion light. weight pugilist of the world, has for some weeks past been studying out and figuring upon new rules to govern boxing contests. Carroll says that the Marquis of Queens- berry rules are good, but that they do not cover enough territory. Tbe ex-champion lightweight has just completed a set of rules which cover every point o! the game and make the task of the referes light and pleasant.

CURIOUS POINT OF LAW. Can a Divorcee Legally Marry Within a Year After the Separation? | WHODAMAGED THE FURNITURE A Witness Who Gnashed Her Teeth Before Answering Irritating ! Questions. Mrs. Lucy W. Auzerais-Hoyte has a temper of ber own. So has Attorney Crit- tenden Thornton. When they clashed 1n Judge Troutt’s court yesterday, the crowd | of aliens in the back row waiting to be | naturalized trembled with fear and several of them glanced longingly towara the door. Attorney Thornton’s wife is suing the | actress for $2000 claimed to be due fordam- | ages inflicted by the latter upon the goods of a furnished house which Mrs. Thornton rented to Mrs. Hoyte, Mr. Thornton is conducting the case on bebalf of his spouse, and consequently his zeal in the matter is somewhat warmer than molten metal. When Mrs. Hoyte testified he asked her questions, some of which she seemed unable to answer before she had relieved her feelings by grinding her teeth, The nerve-racking sound of their gnashing bad haraly time to die away before the echoes were again awakened, so fast did the belligerent lawyer fire objectionable queries at the lady of the resonant jaw. The facts in the case, as set forth in the complaint, which was filed in September, 1895, are that Mrs. Hoyte, who was then Mrs. Louis Auzerais, rented a furnished house on Pacific avenue, near Pierce was agreed to pay $160 per month rent. On September 13 the attorney was in- formed by telephoae that his tenauts would vacate next day. After their depar- ture Thornton inspected the house and in the language of the complaint fouad it *‘foully Hltiy and having the appearance of not being cleaned orswept for months,”” Much of the furniture, it was claimed, was also broken, burned or stained. The case has been postponed and hung fire on one pretext or another and ¢id not | come up for trial until yesterday. Even then further delay was sought. The at- torney for the defense tried to introduce a supplemental answer wherein the name of Hereward Hoyte, the present husband of the defendant, was inciuded. The mo- tion was argued at length ana brought to light a legal point that will be of interest to many ple. Mrs. l}:ucy W. Auzerais-Hoyte was divorced from Louis A. Augerais on March 18, 1896. and married to Hereward Hoyte on | March 24, 1896. It was claimed that Hoyte | could not be included as a defendant in | the suit as the husband of Mrs. Auzerais | because she had not been divorced from | her former husband for a year. | The statutes proviae that during the twelve months following the decision of the Superior Court in such a case the de- feated contestant may appeal to the Su- preme Court. Therefore a person who marries a divorcee within that period takes a chance that such a proceeding be brought and the divorce set aside. Hoyte, band of Mrs. Auzerais until the year has expired. Judge Troutt lent some signifi- cance to the argument by denying the motion to enter the amended comglnm.. Mrs. Auzerais-Hoyte was the first wit- ness called, and the strained relations be- tween her and Mr. Thornton were at once apparent. The attorney neglected no op- | portunity of referring to the unclean con- dition in which he says he found his prop- erty, and the witness overlooked no | chance to refer to the poor quality and finenl dilapidation of the goods when e first took possession of them. *Did you have the globes on the gas fix- tures cleaned while you occupied the place?” gueried the lawyer. “Several times, but they were so cov. ered with fly specks that ‘we found it im- | possibie to get them clean,” replied the | witness. “You couldn’t get fly specks off ing at them,” sneered Thornton. ‘‘And there were so mary there when I | moved 1n that you conldn’t remove them with acid,” said Mrs. Hoyte. | “‘What was the condition of the curtains in the front room when you took posses- | sion ?” resumed the ntorne&n | The witness smiled wickedly. “Rotten,” she replied. Little rmnu allusions were plentifal | before the witness lte&ned down, but it | was developed that a little son of the de- | fendant had removed a pendulum from a rior clock, and had bestowed sundry icks and knocks upon the different pieces of furniture. Thornton claims to have counted 146 indentations made by the toes of shoes on one door and fifty-four on an- other. Mrs. Hoyte acknowledges that there may be four or fiye in all.
