Awaiting the Installation of ths N.w | Minister, Who Is Opposed to the Sam Yups. Fung Yung Heng, Consul-General of the Pacific Coast for the Emperor of China, | and Vice-Consul King Owrang, who went | to Washington several weeks ago for the purpose of interviewing the Chinese Min- ister, Yang Yu, on the condition and | future prospects of the Chinese colonies of America, returned to this City last even- ing. | Durirg the Consnl’s visit at Washington a deputation of Chinamen, members of the See Yuo Company, with Joseph C. | Campbell, attorney-at-law ved in that €ity 1o lay their griovances before the | inister.

If they have | to go a block they take a carriage, for cere- | ony to the utmost verge of punctitious- | ness’is the leading characteristic of the Cuinese. Then they must have s large nue of servants.in order to impressthe inese Minister with the fact that they | represent the “solid Muldoonery” of the California Chinese. Naturally their bills were very high, and there is much discon- tent in yellow circles here because of that ts obtained mained an Mir fact, and bants are raising a loud protest against paying them. They are practical people and they ob- ject to pa; money for the purpose of impressing a Chinese Minister when his successor is already on the way here, and is expected to arrive on the Gaelic, which | is dus next Saturday. If the present Min- | ister has bzen bribad fo favor either fac- | tion, they argue, what good will itdo when he is going 1o be deposed? He will then have no authority or weight what- | ever, and the whole thing will have to be | done over again. “What's the use of making two bites of a cherry?” they ask. e new Minister sball have been d in Washington they say that he er man in the place of the General in San Francisco. There zuse for much rejoicing among the See | Yups, for the new Minister comes from their district, and is naturallysupposed to thy with them. He is, there- expected to appoint as Consul-Gen- is port a friend of the See Yups. | ‘The reports and statements of great | on the part of the See Yup aeputa- Consu! ia tion which recenily visitea Washington are erroncous,” said Fuug Yung Heng | through King Owyang, who acted as his interpreter. “An audien anted the mer- chants. it is true, but after the Minister had listened their statements he in- | formed them that he was fally aware of | the important part the See Yap Company | vlayed in_ the recent trouble in| Ban Francisco.

Second, the See | Yups were told to dismiss the suit| ogainst the Consul-General, Funz Yung Heng, for his anving ordered the demoli- | tion of the See Yup headquarters several | months ago. ‘Third came ihe worst blow of all. The Minister at frst demanded the disruption of the See Yup Company. This was too much, and tie merchants, bowing lower and lower, implored and tezged that their society be ailowed to exist. The Minister finally consentea, | butonly on the understanaing that the | See Yups cast aside certain unlaw-| ful sections of their by - laws. The Minister next demanded that the See Yups pay 1he court costs incurrel in the suit instituted acainst the Consul-General. On a plea of poverty being advanced by the merchants, how- ever, the Minister again acquiesced, and 1he Government of China will assume the expense of the suit which wiil now be abandoned.

CARRIED THE DOG. General Nathanicl T. James’ Kindly Ae: Toward an Irjured Little Fox Terrier. General Nathaniel T. James, manager of the local branch of the Alliance Assur- ance Company of London, is deserving of a medal from the Society for the Preven- tion of Crueity to Animals. The insurance man is an ardent horse- | man and often takes a ride along the ocean beach accompanied by & handsome little fox terrier that holds a scarcely less exalted place in his affections than his horse, On Monday he took his usual ride with | a conple of friends, the merry terrier | dancing along ahea Suddenly there was a yelp of pain from the dox as one of the horses and stepped on it. Genera! James was out of his saddle in a moment, and found that the iron-shod | hoof had cut two of the terrier's legs to | | the bone. Biood was streaming from the | wounds, but the dog’s owner took it up in his arms and, not_being able to carry the littie thing comfortably on horseback, turned his animal over to one of his | friends and walked through the park to where he could get a car and reach the Citr. People stared to see the man carrying a wounded dog in his arms, but they appar- ently understood the case, for they smiled sympathetically and several inquired how the accident had happened. The horseman’s riding suit was ruined belore he reached a velerinary surgeon, “but he feels repaid from the fact that the | dog is out of danger. ———————— Chief Crowiey Recovered.

Over 400 delegates were present, representing all the various -Sunday- schools throughout the State, The con- vention 1s to last three days and there will be a morning, aitertfoon ana evening session daily. The young people of the First Baptist | Church, keenly aiive to the importance of | the convention and the great and lasting good which may be accomplished by its efforts, «pent the greater part of the day yesterday in beautifying the altar and chancel of the church, Henry Morton of San Jose, president of the assoc:ation, presided, and seated on either side of him were the speakers of the evening. Although the work of the oven- ing session was largely preliminary in character it gave evidence of the great and good work planned and the splendid resuits which are sure to follow. The tirst work of the convention was the sending of a teiegram, expressing sin- cere condolence to the widow of Moore Hesketh of Woodland. Deceased was sta- tistical secretary of the association. After a Scriptural reading, third chap- ter, F.rst epistle of St. John, by Miss [da Clayton, Rev. Mr. Van Dvne of San Jose ormaily opened the convention with a prayer. D. M. Carman delivered the address of welcome. His opening sentence, in which he referred 1o the greatness turust upon him, showed his appreciation of the dis- tinguished honor. ~ His sneech was earnest d straightiorward. His greeting was hospitable and gracefully put. “If we do not deliver to you the keys of the City we off:r you the keys to our hearts and our homes”—a sentence that showed the true irit of those present 10 greet the stran- ger cuest. Mr. Carman introducea the subject of the waifs of the City—the desolate chil- aren *knowing neitiier home, church nor God.” Rev. E. R. Dille delivered the address of welcome on behalf of the churches. The reverend gentleman, while admitiing the City was not so vious as we could wish, declared we were not quite so bad as some delight Lo paint us. He referred to the lofty aims of the convention and assured the delegaies a hearty welcome from the church as well as the City. Responses were made by Judge J. M. Haven of Oakland and Rev. H. A. Ketchum, 0.D., of Berkeley. Frofessor H. M.

By special consent of Bishop Nicholas the Greek element of the Greek-Russian Catholic Church was given the morning hour yesterday. ‘The services consisted of a brief re- ligious ceremony, being s prayer for the success of the Greeks. priest in charze was a Greek, recently from Alaska, nd the attendance consisted very largely of the Greeks of the City, but many re- mained away because of the attitude of the Russian Government in the present crisis. The tone of the devotions was quite_patriotic and the prayers asked that Providence make the Greeks worthy of the independ=nce declared in 1819, SCIENCE AND ART TOOK THEIR TURN A New, Imposing, Three- Stery Structure on Post Street. Wonderfui Electrical Appliancas and Telephonic Sys- tem. The San Fraacisco Gas and Electric Company Estab ished in Its New Quariers. The plant and property of ths San Francisco Gaslight Company and of the Edison Light and Power Company have been sold to a new corporation known as the San Francisco Gas and Electric Com- pany. The change has been inaugurated by the construction of a palatial three- story stone and brick building at 415 Post street, above Powell. The offices of the old companies have been transterred to the new quarters, and the business transacted hereafter will be at the new address, The president of the new company is J. B. Crockett; the secretary, William G. Barrett. The board of directors is com- posed of President J. B. Crockett, G. W. Prescott, Adam Grant. Levi Strauss, Daniel T. Murphy, J. Downey Harvey, A. H. Payson, James B. Stetson, W. F.| Whittier, C. E. Green and P. J. Donahue. The new building of the corporation is one of which any City mignt well fee! prond. On the principle that a d:amond scarfpin may serve a useful purpose as well as to adorn, it _has been consiructed in the most maynificent style of modern art. Viewed from the front it looms upasa three-story stone straciure, the two upper stories being finished iu buff brick with terra-cotta trimmings. The basement and main flootr are in Raymond granite. The main Hoor !s partitioned off into sep- arate offices for seven bookkeepers, with desks for collectors and a large office near the central part for the cashier's depart- ment. ‘Ihe entire finish of this floor s in | Flemish oak, highly polished, with brass counter-rails and a mosaic floor. Opening from the cashier's department i3 the spacious cash vault. In it the bonks‘ ol the concern are kept. So perfect is the mechanism thata book weighing 30 pounds can oe hauled forth with t«o tingers. Above the vault proper is another vault 17 feet long, in which books and records are kept. In the front of the building on the main floor and at the right of the entranceis the president’s cffice, fitted in modern style, wilh the secretary’s in the rear of it and the stenographer’s room eadjoining. The office and lavatories are finished in quartered oak. The waiuscoting of the lower floor iy of Tennessee marble. Tuere is one elevator in tue building, a Fraser. Under the compartment for pas- sengers is one for freigat. On toe second floor, and directly oyer- looking Post street, 13 the board of directors’ room. This room 1is finished in Flemish oak, handsomely carpeted, vith large portraits of past officers adorning the walls. At the eastern end is a fireplace, built to give a Greek temple effect. it reaches to ibe ceiling. The capitais of the columns are lonic. Midway petween the flnor and ceiling is a French-plate mirror. Pendant from the ceiling in t:.e center of the room is & beautiful cuandelier. Eugineer Jones' room is on the north- west corner of the second flioor. Itisa well-equipped engineer’s office, finished in whiie cedar, and ornemented alvo with a beautiful carpet and chandeizer. Back of the engineer’s otfice is the room for the use of the engineer's clerks, in which all thesccounts of the manulacture of gas are kept. 1n a room to the rear are kept the maps of the City containing the location of street mains and lamp-posts and a card catalogue of all the meters in ase. The street-iamp burners. are tested in this room to insure their burning the | proper amount of gas. The electric-lizht part of the establish- ment isin the rear of the second story and under the charge of Mr. Green. Con- nected with it are the roor:s of his corps of assistants and clerks. At the extreme | rear is a small room, handsomely fur- nished, for the use of the president when he desires to be at leisure or indulge In | thought undisturbed. On the third floor, over the room re- | served for the use of the board of direct- | ors, is a large room extending tue whole | length ot the building. It is reserved for use only on special occasion-. Directly back of this apartment and to the west side of the structure is the room of the en- gineer's assistants and draughtsmen. To the rear of it is the bookroom, which will be finished with cases containing books and stationery arranged in regular order. Next to this is the room occupiea by the bill clerks of the gas department. Adjoining it is 8 small room for the use of the_bill cierks at luncheon. I the basement is the gas stove depart- ment. Here are kept samples of every kpown appliance for heating and cooking with eas. It is reached by steps directly from Post street, and is under charge of a | mapager who will be pieased to extend every courtesy to those wishing to inspect the samples. The company attempts to make no pro- fit on these goods, but keeps them merely to accommodate patrons and encourage the use of gas. The storekeeper's office is also in the tasement. The storeroom has all the spe- ciel fittings for gas and electric applances, such as stoves, heaters and supplies. In the rear of the basement 1s the meter department, in which ali complaints, such as leaks and stoppages, are attended! to. Near it is the teamster’s room, where ali oriers are attended to by telephona. There is room enough in the rear of the buildiag for a double team to turn easily. The whole building is heated with the Perlection asbestos grate. For very cold | weather a furnace in the basement, with pipes leading to all the principal offices, is } brought into requisition. Oane of the most marvelous features of the new building is its telephone system. Tnere are ten telephones operated by what is known as the house system. Thus the president or any officer picks his transmister off the Mook, and by giving the aporopriate number,'such as one or ten, can speak with any department in the building. Switches can be made to the local or the Sunset telephone system at will. By a private-system of under:round copper wires any of tie telepbones can be con- nected with the company’s buildings at North Beach and other parts of the City. One small room is devoted to the exclu- sive use of the telephone girl, who fiads her time weil occupied in attending to switches. The officers when in a hurry can sum- mon any of their assistants simply by pushing the proper button of a series on the desk. Much credit is due Architect Clinton Day, under whose direction all the inte- rior arrangements were carried out. But to Presiden: Crockeit himself must be given tue credit for 2 vast deal of the ar- rangements and suggestions for labor- saving devices. Much of his time was spent in personal suvervision. The grea: Mohammedan school at Cair Ei Azhar, meaning “The Splendid.”’ has | ciear records dating as far back as 975. NEW TO-DAY BEGAUSE Ye are neither hot nor cold I will, ete., ete.
