She Is Expected to Be One of the Fastest Crafts Sent From Here. WILL MAKE THIRTEEN KNOTS. President Godfrey and Chief Engineer Keech Are Here to Receive Her. The hull of another steamer for the Ha- waiian Inter-Island Steam Navigation Company arrived from Port Blakeley last Wednesday. When completed she will run between Honolulu and the volcano on the island of Hawaii, and should the ex- | pectations of her builder be realized her speed will exceed thirteen knots. The new steamer is schooner-rigged and |isnamed James Spiers, after the well- known member of the firm of Hinckley, Spiers & Hayes (the Fulton Iron Works), | which is now completing the vessel’s ma- chinery. The name isonly atemporary one, bowever, and was given because she was built in America, flew the American flag, and had to be named before she counld make a voyage. Once she arrives at Honolulu the name will be changed, | and, like all the inter-island boats, she will probably receive a Kanaka name. The James Spiers, as she lies off the China basin, presents a very pretty model. She carries very little sail, but, neverthe- less, she was able to more than hold her own with the schooner Oceania Vance in the run from the Sound. She is 195 feet over all, 34 feet beam and 15feetdeep. She will be fitted out at the Fulton Iren Works, and when completed will be a credit to San Francisco workmanship. There will be accommodations for seventy- tive cabin passengers, and the quarters will be on the upper deck. The cabins will be finished in white enamel, and the eabin urnishings will be luxurious. Captain McAllip, who brought the Spiers from Puget Sound, says she 1s one of the smartest vessels he ever sailed in. He is confident that under steam she will beat thirteen knots. Captain Godfrey, the presiadent, and H. Keech, the engineer, of the Inter-Island Steam Navigation Company, are both in | S8an Francisco and will take the James Spiers to Honolulu. This makes the eighth vessel that Hall Bros. have built for the island company, and another is now on the ways. The last one sent to the islands was the Ke Auhou, which has proved to be a splendid sea boat and a fast o ne. W hen the Spiers iscompleted, under the personal supervision of Messrs. Godfrey and Keech, she will have her trial trip, | and if suceessful she will at once start for the Paradise of the Pacific with a party of Hawaiians, The only other member of her crew that has as yet been engaged is Captain Dun- can, late of the missionary schooner Morn- ing Star. He will go to the islands on her as first mate. Captain Hall of Hall Bros. is quite proud of the new vessel, and he should be, as she is as pretty a model as has passed through the Golden Gate in many a day. WERE NOT NOTIFIED.

STEVE BRODIE COMES T0 TOWN, The Bridge-Jumper Revisits | the City After 17 Years. HE DOESN'T TALK SLANG And He Objects to Having It Put in His Mouth Off the Stage. HAS TURNED PHILANTHROPIST Has a Doctor in His Saloon Who Gives Medicine Free to Broken- Down Drunks. Steve Brodie, bridge-jumper, has come to town. He arrived yesterday morning, as I said before I made most of my money from the drinking p(—osle and I feel it no more than just that I spend a portion of it with them.” Resp. STEVE BRODIE, 114 Bowery. Mr. Brodie explained that he had locaea one Dr. McKenna behind a counter in the rear of his saloon, where he was prepared to treat all comers who felt the need of medicine in their effort at reformation. | The bridge-jumper seemed very much in- | terested in his enterprise. | **Now,” said Mr. Brodie, changing the sabject, ‘“‘you have been talking to me | some ten minutes or more. I want you to do me a favor. I am getting tired of the | way they put Bowery slang into my | mouth in the newspapers. I want you to | report me as you find me; don’t credit me | with any more queer language than you | have heard me use. That is to say, if it won’t do you any harm; if the story will ; read just as well. Iknow newspaper men. | They have to make the matter readable, | and if you think you need the slang, put | it in; but I prefer, if you can get along | without it, that you would do so. Don’t | understand that I am against newspaper | men or their ways. I appreciate them | more than anybody, for I feei that I owe to them all that I am.” Brodie’s indebtedness to newspaper men | shoulid not be coupled with the fact that | he 1s worth a quarter of a million through | the sale of rum. He did not mean that. | He meant that newspaper men had given |to him his wide renown. Speakingon this subject—the story of his great bridge- jumping feat, he said: | “I' have done a!l the bridge-jumping that I am going to. I have made my | record. All the rest of them are welcome | to make a try at it. I have no_exclusive rights on the Brooklyn bridge. It is there; | anvbody can go and jump from it who | desires, so far as I am concerned. No; I | didn’t make the speech that was credited | to me concerning the San Francisco boy who is said to be going to New York to | make the jump. That was another bit of and, with a crowd of satellites who delight in his conversation and money-spending proclivities, did the town yesterday. “This is some of Mr. Bryan's money,” said he of the Bowery, handing out three big silver dollars over a Powell-street bar yesterday afternoon in payment for a long procession of drinks. Of all the crowd banked up against the bar the famous Bowery boy was the siight- est in stature—a little, lithe figure of dark eyes and complexion, wearing plain dark clothes and the light round top soft hat that is seen oftener in the Bowery and south of Market street than elsewhere. “I am worth a quarter of a million,” he said, turning to an interviewer. I have made it all out of rum. I keep two saloons in the Bowery and they do big business. But Iam devoting some of the money I have made to redeem those who helped to make me. See, here is s letter I wrote to the New York Recorder just before I came away. It explains what I am doing: To the Editor: The amount of Drunkenness along the Bowery is becoming alarming. Men of Familys, single men who are willing to work & men to lazy to work are goinz toa super’s grave fast. Though I have made the igest part of my mone; Business therefore I don’t care to condemn i+ nor do I care to !nmdp‘lvhlbiflonll!, but what Ido and what I will do is th. ure Habitual at my place on the Bowery. 1 have arranged with Dr. J.

Tt was not fair to me, for I don’t talk that way. I never say what another man can do or what he can’t do. 1 give every man a chance. *“But as I have said I can’t make any kick on the newspapers; they have always been my friends. make my opening of the season at the California Theater Monday night in my play ‘On the Bowery.' 1 have come straight from New York to open here. Tae play was written for me. It brings the most famous street of this country to San Francisco. This is the third season for the play. It has been very successful.” Although this is the first appearance of Brodie's play it is not the first appearance of Mr. Brodie in S8an Francisco. He was here 1n 1879, when he entered a walzing contest against a horse in the Mechanics’ Pavilion. The horse got the best of it. That was before Brodie had jumped into fame. He is full of wonder at the growth of the City and the improvements -that have taken place since his last visit. Big Mass- Meeting To-Night. Three hundred prominent citizens have ac- cepted iavitations to be vice-presidents at the charter mass-meeting to-night at Metropolitan Temple.

HOW BOTH LOSE MONEY Unwise Credit to Irresponsible Ones Fosters Ruinous Prices. MANY LOAVES, MANY FAILURES Bakers Meet and Take Steps to Insure Payment and a Living to All Concerned. The master bakers and the flour mer- chants are to combine to prevent an in- | bread at low prices. It is against this competition that the | Master Baxers’ Protective Association is | complaining. Yesteraay they held a big meeting on Bush street, near Kearny, in conjunction with some twenty or thirty merchants who furnish bakers’ supplies. ‘While no final action resuited, a significant step was taken by the merchants and bakers present in approving of a resolu- tion proposed by the following committee: Wheaton of Wheaton, Breon & Co.; Fer- guson of Moore, Ferguson & Co.; Charles J. Leist of Charles J. Leist & Cc.; Frank Eils, representing Sperry Fiour Company, and Louis Hartler of Hartler, Hayes & Co. Master bakers—George J. utz, Siemon of Siemon & Reiss, Bamford, M. F. Wolff and James Callopy. The resolution is as follows: We, the committee sppointed, offer the fol- | lowing resolution: That the merchants repre- sented in this committee are thoroughly in sympathy with the Master Bakers’ Protective Association and we are ready and willing to | uphold and subscribe to such rules as may be | adopted by the same with regard to the exte: sion of credits to such bakers as act in oppo tion or in open violation of the ruies of the ganization, provided the rules adopted are ac cepted by a sufficient number of the members. To this the bakers appended this re- ciprocity pledge: In consideration of such action of the mer- chants thus subscribing we, the members of the Master Bakers’ Protective Association, ob- ligate ourseives to trade only with such mer- chants as have subscribed thereto. Secretary Georgze A. Rutz of the Master Bakers’ Protective Association was in- structed by President N. Prost, chairman of the meeting, to furnish to all the mer- chants of San Francisco a list of all the master bakers of San Francisco, Oakland and Alameda that are not members of the association, the object being to facilitate the discovery of such bakeries as are sell- ing so cheaply as to arouse the apprehen- sion of both the legitimate dealer and the trusting supply merchant. An effort wiil be made in the meantime to draw into the association &8s many of the other master bakers as possible, to minimize the number to be watched. Much spirited talk was indulged in re- garding the establishment of a maximum number of loaves to be sold for a dollar. Assertions were made that there was not a living in it for the wholesalers that offered over twenty-eight loaves for a dol- lar- Such rates as eighty, and even forty for a dollar, were declared disastrous to the baker that attempted them and injuri- ous to legitimate business. The settle- ment of this matter, however, was de- ferred to a special meeting of the associa- tion. NEW TO-DAY. Poor folks have got to get the most for their mon- ey, and rich folks don’t ob- ject.
