Another record has been broken and a British ship is queen of the seas. Years ago the Merioneth made the run from Cardiff to San Francisco in record-break- ing time. On that occasion John D. preckels presented her with the cham- pion flag. She still flies it, although Cap- tai now in the Afonalaw.

The news of the iwo_ vessels was posted at the Mer- chants’ Exchange yesterday. The arrival of the latier and the abandonment of the formar were both chronicied at the same time.

In connection with the trip of the Mil- tiades the following notes furnished by the exchange are interesting: British ship Melanope, previously reported | at Queenstown, from Orégon, lost mate over- bosyd, smasied wheel, sternpost, lifeboats and lost ssils during voyage. British ship Albyn, hence November 13, at Queenstown, had terrific weather off Cape Tiorn, smashed wheel and lost sails.

He has been a very sick men, and for several weeks was laid up in the German hospital. He is now able to be out and about again, and vesterday was receiving the congratu- lations of the passengers who patronize the Tiburon and San Rafml ferry, on his reappearance on the gate and aboard the steamer. The ferry steamers Encinal and Newark and the gasoline launch owned by the San Francisco Laundry, were in close proximity vesterday. The Newark sig- naled the launch to go to port, but she | failed to do so, and in getting out of the little crafi’s way the Encinal was en- countered. In consequence both ferry boats came to a stop, in order to avoid a collision, while ihe gasoline launch steamed on as though nothing had hn_Fpened. kg he Alaska Packing Association’s newly purchased ship, the Santa Clara, will de- part next week for Alaska with a big load of Chinese salmon canners and a hold fall of supplies for the company’s many can- neries aiong the Alaskan coast. The ves- sel is now ut Fremont-street wharf and carpenters are fitting her up forward be- tween decks for the accommodation of the Chinese passengers.

The North American Mercantile and Trading Company has received a setback. The company’s Alaskan coal has been tried on the revenue cutters now in port, and the report is that it does not come up dard. In consequence, the ush, Patterson and other Gov- s are now using Comox is the vrettiest vessel of her class in the ba; When sue was rebuilt the wise- acres said that she would rollin a sea- | way, and in consequence be & very un- comfortable boat to travel on. - Her first irip proved their mistake. Sbe is, with- out doubt, the most comfortable boat on the river trade, and instead of being a roller she is as steady as a rock. The work of repairing the Sunoi is going on rapidly, and the chances are that she will be ready for her oid run long before the Barton is wanted on the Alviso route. In | spite of the heavy setback Arthur Piper, Joe Aden, Harry Goodall and Al Pryor still come up smiling and say, “Boys, all’s well that ends well. There were no lives lost.”" The wrecker W hitelaw is still patrolling the place where the Sunol went down. She is seeking for the boilers that went out when the vessel turned turtle, and incidentally for whatever her dragnets will bring up in the shape of lead bars. There are 1500 of the latter. in the mud, and every one of them recovered means at least §25 saved. The bars are really silver ore, and were on their way to the Selby Smelting Works for reduction. Tretrip to Alaska got up by Alfred McNevin is not a colonization scheme, neither is it a wila goose chase. . The ves- sel will be paid for before the men leave the dock, and there will be at least six months' provisions aboard. Any member of the expedition who wants to settle up there can do so, but all and sundry will have an interest in the trip. A consider- able quantity of trade will be taken up, and the results will be divided pro rata on The vessel is to be sold to the highest bidder, so that when accounts are squared no one can be & very heavy loser, even though he puts in the money he puts up as a bad debt. LIST AT OF S LEG Policeman P. Whelan Had an Encounter With o Buildog. He Wants to Have the Boast Killed and Its Owner Iacar- cerated Police Officer Whelan, or what is left of him, is aggressive. He, and a bulldog belonging to Jobn Doe Matthews, became mixed up some few evenings ‘ago, and the dog got the best of it. In consequence Whelan wants the dog killed, and he prays for the ar- rest of John Doe Metthews as the keeper of vicious dogs. Judge Joachimsen has issued a warrant for the owner's arrest, but nothing has been done vet to produce the dog or the missing pieces of Whelan’s anatomy. The policeman was attending to his duty last Saturday niecht on Stevenson street, between Sixth and Seyenth, when be observed a suspicious character skulk- ing along in the shadow of the houses, He cried “‘Halt,” but the man ran and Whelan set out after him. As they passed the house of Mr. M at- thews the bulldog took some interestin the chase. He seized the hindmost man and the hindmost partof him, considerably interfering with hir chances of catcning the fugitive. - The latter escaped, but Whelan’s trou- sers did not, and he asks now that the owner of the dog be punished for cwning such a beast, and the beast be killed for biting deeper than the thickness of a po- liceman’s trouse: ————— ADVANCES made on furniture and planos, with orwithout removal.

Obj:ctions Made by the Retail Grocers” Association to the Manner of Its Enforcement. The pure food law was the subject of an | animated discussion at the meeting of the | Retail Grocers’ Association last night. It was admitted that the law had a good end in view, but the complaint was made | that all the burden was placed on the | shoulders of the retailers, while the whole- | sale dealers and the manufacturers were allowed to go unmolested. Anotner | grievance was that the grocers wers not allowed any time in whicl to get rid of the adulterated stock, but were snatched up in the grip of the law unawares. It was siated at the meeting that 63 per cent of the manufactured food products in the United States were adulterated, and that to remedy the evil and to do no injustice to any one it was necessary to aprly the law tirst to the manufacturers and then all the way down from the wholesaler to the retailer. But the de- fect in the operation of the law was that manufacturers outside of this State could not be reacbed, while makers of adulter- ated goods in this State had not been punished. It was mentioned in the meeting last | night that Grocer Ciine bad been heavily fined for selling Taspberry jelly that had been adulterated, and that.the manu- facturers, whose factory was in this City, had not been complained against or ar- Tested. J. C. Nobmann reported that he had called on BSecretary Godchaux of the | Board of Health and eave that official his | objections against the manner in which the law was being enforced. To 'his sur- prise, Mr. Goach:ux opened a report on the operation of the pure-food law of Onio and pointed out in that report every objection ghat he had made, together with the reply thereto. Whenever Mr. Nob mann mentioned a fresh objection Secre- tary Godcbaux said: “Yes; here it is, on page 50 and soof the Ohio report. You see, all those objections are old and have been answered time and again.” rolman Broth- erton, who had arrested him, abvised him to p'ead guilty. “Guilty of what?’ asked Mr. Btutz. wOf selling adulterated goods, gested the officer. “I don't know that they are adulter- ated,” replied Stutz. He expressed tbhe opinion that under the law, as # now siands, it would be necessary for the retailer to nave an analy- sis made of a bottle in each case before he would feel safe in exposing the article for sale. Mr. Stutz announced that in order to protect himself in the fature he was ha ing a rubber stamp made with the words “Bubstitute for.”” These words he would stamp upon little slips of paper, which he would paste upon the label of each pack- age. “We don’t object to the law,” said Mr. Nobmann, ‘‘and we are more than an. ious to uphold it, but we don’t want to be cinched.” An instance was related in which the wholesaler stamped ‘‘cottonseed oil”’ on the box containing tins of that article manufactured in New Jersey, while the labels on the tins certified that the stuff was olive oil. The following resolution was unani- mously adopled: Resolved, That while we are in fayor of the enforcement of the pure food law, we feel that the sction being taken al present by the Board of Health does great injustice to the re- talt grocers of the City. We therefore urge that the Board of Health sdvise with the Re- tail Grocers’ Asscciation and the Wholesale Grocers’ Association in order that the desired resalt may be accomplished with the least in- 1 Jury to ali concerned. Supervisor John Lackmann, John C. Nobmann (member of the Grand Jury) sug- ana Joseph A. Btutz were -p&ol,nud‘hl on 1o the Board of Health and advise with that body. S0ould it be deemed necessary after the conference, a mass-meeting of the entire trade will be called at an early date to take action in the matter. THOSE CHINESE WOMEN. They Are Proparing to Make a Lively Legal Fight. From all appearances the recent raid upon ths dens of Chinatown 1s likely to come to naught. Nearly sixty Chinese women were taken into custody, but with the majority it was a case of *‘hzzle,” for the authorities were obliged to liberate nearly the whole of the batch. Not to be wholly outdone, three of the younger women were formally arrested on the charge of being unlawfully within the United States. These women claim to be native daughters and therefore entitled to be in this country. All three cases were yesterday assigned to Court Commissioner Heacock, who set the ‘cases for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next. Bert Schlesinger, the Assistant District Attorney, will represent the United States. "He has no easy task to perform, for the burden of proving that the women were not born in this country rests with the prosecution, and the women do not have to prove anything. ‘Maior Moore ex- pects to be able to prove that the women are hatives of China. 1t1s not likely that he will succeed. e I8 A LOOAL FPRINTER. Theater Tickets Are Not Made Up in Cnicago, but in San Francisco. John A.

In fact, the ticket company which I have established here, although it goes under the nsme of the Globe Ticket Company, is a lozal in- sutution.
