In this instance, however, one of the members of the Chinatown | squad was irritated beyoud eudurance by the molestations of the fellow and pgave him a kick that sent him back he had followed them tor four bl pouring out bis abu-e and viie language vpon the heads of the ladies. Tke priucipal cause of grievance on the t of this individual seemed to be the jact that a petition was' in circuiation which had for its object the suppression of Chinese slavery, ana his consequent Joss of a job, and also that THE CALL was tuking steps to throw light upon the con- ditions which prevailea In the Chinese quarters of the Gity. He appeared to feel that the ladies of the missions were | directly responsible for the petition and gave his opinion of the matter in unmeas- ured terms. In speaking of the incident, Mrs. Lake said: 3 | “We receivea word last April that this | g rldesired toescape from the hands of | lier owners, and ever since that time we have been trying to get her, but some- thing has always occurred to prevent the carrying out of the attempt to rescue her. “‘Last night Mrs. Hull, Miss Lake and myself went through Chinatown, and as we passed the door oi the house where the girl was kept wo went in and found the door open. The girl was sitling in a room, and while Mrs. Hull and I wentin to keep her company Miss Lake went out to tele- phone for an officer to help us take her say. While she was gone the watchman came to the door and demanded admit- tance, but we d'd not let bim in until the police came. When the officers came we attempted to take the girl out, but the watchman and the mistress of the house canght her and fought us as we struggied to get to the door. The policemen stoo. by and gave us no assistance whatever. | The mistress put her thumb in the girl’s tLroat and choked her untii she was biack in the face. At last the police told usthat we had better let the gzirl go, as she was getting the worst of it, and then, when we loosened our hoid, the poor creature was dragged by her hair into a room and the door was locked. : “We sent for the sergeant of the China- town equad and when he came he left two other officers with us and gave them in- structions to protect us. When we got the door open_to get the girl out we were again attacked by the watchman and the mistre<s, but succeeded, with the aid of the two policemen, in getting her from the house. We had been in there fully 1wo hoursand all the while the watchman was abusing us and_also doing all 1in his vower to make us leave the place, claim- | ner was given to the secretary at which | to congregaie, but just as the squad en- tered the mouth of the alley an electric- light went out, and immediately the tink- ling of electric bells put all on their guard, with the result that the raid found empty rooms. — - ILLUSTRIOUS CHINESE. The Secratary of the Legation an | Honored Guest at the Consuate. Last evening at 8:30 Wong Ti Quin, sec- retary of the Chinese legation at Wash- ington, arrived in this City and was taken to the residence of Consul-General Yu, | where he was the guest of honor. A din- | many prominent men of Chinatown were vitec guests. The secretary will remain in the Cuy for several days, and will prob- #bly then go to China, Heisaccompanied by two attaches of the legat:on and an attenaant, and there is cons:derable guess- ing going on among the Chinese here as to just what his visit portends. The trouble among resident Chinese over the slave question may be brought to his attention, and he is also expected to investigate the recent threats of death which were posted on the walls of China- town. The men interested in having the laws of the country obeyed look for hearty support at his hands, while the members of the slave-dealers’ association will do al. in their power to make him be- lieve that they are above reproach. DEATE OF MRS, TOWNSEND, in Bed and Flowing. '.\!rs. Caroline Townsend, wile of E. de Kay Townsend, secretary of the Red Cap Mining Company, was found dead in her bed at lLer residence, 2618 Laguna street, at an early hour yesterday morning. The deceased lady had been ailing for some time with what was considered heart trouble, and as a consequence she had a nurse fo wait on her. Wednesday night, bowever, the nurse was absent, and all that could be ascertained was that the gas in the sickroom had been left burning during the night while the windows were open, and it was either blown out by the draft, or the lady got up during the night and in some manner tampered with the jet, leaving it open in such a way so that sufficient escapell to cause her death. When the family awoke in the morning the sirong odor of escaping gasin the house attracted their attention. An in- vestigation of the premises soon revealed the cause. In the room was found the open jet with the dead budy of Mrs. Townsend lying-on the bed. The deceased was a native of New York, aged 49 years. Tioe Coroner was notified, but decided not to remove the body to the Morgue; but bLe will hold an inquest, nevertheless. —————— Sons of Vermont.

A Dangerous Blaze Visits the Bryant-Street Lumber Distriot. A Poor Family on Perry Street Made Homeless—Electric Wire Accident. The furniture manufactory of Bruschke Miller, on Bryant street, betweer Fourth and Fifth, went up in a blaze last evening shortly after 6 o'clock. Three alarms of tire were sounded from box 186, but before the Fire Department arrived the larze structure and its two-story shed addition were in 8 mass of fire and smoke. No sooner did Chief Sullivan realize the danger than he caused nearly all of the remainder of the department to be called out on two more alarms. It was one of the quickest and most savace fires that the men have had to bandle for some time past. It started in the engine-room in the west end of the long shed, and the wind being strong the | fire swept furiously through the entire building, which consisted of four stories on Bryant street and a long two-story shed addition that extended back over 100 feet into a large lot. Before the engines ar- rived the entire shed was ablaze and the fire was bursting out of every window of the main building. For a time it looked as though the lum- ber-yards on the south side of the street would be destroyed also, but a flood of water thrown out liberally was their sal- vation. Fortunately there was plenty of water, and a dozen or two Streams pre- vented the fire from escaping from the building in which it started. B-veral cottages in the rear facing on Peiry street were badly scorched and one was almost entirely destroyed. The iatter was the residence of J. Lynch and Mr., O'Larney, owned by J. Hiron, Some of the furniture was saved. The houses occupied by William Cruise {and Mrs. K. Conlan in the rear of 233 Perry street were badly scorched. The same damage was done to the houses oc- Williams and Edwin Woodruff in the rear of 231 After a hard fight the men got the fire under control, and all that was left of the San Francisco Furniture Manufacturing Company, as the firm was called, was a mass of smoldering lumber and twisted machinery in the rear and the skeleton of what was once a tall building in the front. The loss was not 8o greatas migzht be supposed, because there was but little ma- terial in the place. Last October the firm of Bruschke & | Miller went into insolvency, and since | then most of the material has been cleaned out of the place. Forsome time past only about forty men have been employed | work.ng up the material on hand, which | was at once sent away as soon s made | into furnuture. The Fire Department offi- | cials estimate the loss at about $8000, in- cluding the building. Bruschke estimates the loss at $20.000, and he says that he car- ried $4000 insurance. There were several incidents of note during the fire, two of which came near resuiting seriousiy. Thomas Logan, a | fireman, came near losing his life when | placing a ladder against the shed. A tele- vhone wire brcke from its fastening on an adjoining building and fell across a live electric wire near by. The teiephone wire struck Logan across the face, and the man was knocked senseless to the ground, fall- ing a distance of ten or twelve feet. He was picked up and removed to his home at 768 Harrison street, where it took him some time to recover. Shortly after the fire broke out it spread to the residence of Mrs. O'Larney of 235 Per:y street. The family made an effort o save their furniture and forgot that a little 5-year-old girl was asleep in the rear room close to where the fire was raging. Then the alarm was given. Elias Whit- man heard the mother’s cry and rushed into the burning house, and none too soon. The flames were a!rcady burning the side of tue wall, and the boy, who is not more than 13 years old, had but a moment to seize the chila and make his escape. When he reached the street his clothes were on fire. He was loudly cheered for his bravery. The littie girl was uninjured. James Comiskey of the water battery got_his hand caught in the machinery while raising the tower and two fingers of his leit hand were badly cut. G. T.Logan of truck 3 was on top of a ladder,' when he took hold of an ele tric wire that had got crossed with anothe wire. The shock threw him to the ground He escaped with a contusion of the right, knee, but is suffering from the shock. A BURNING MISTAKE. Baker Swallows Creosote In- stead of “D. T. Mixture. W. H. Baker, who says he is a nephew of Colonel Baker of Los- Angel was taken to-the Receiving Hospital yesterday morning from Post and Mason streets, suffering from creosote poisoning. He said he was being treated by Dr. Woodward for delirium tremens, and took a spoonful of creosote in mistake for the doctor’s mixture. After being treated at the hospital, he retused to remain, a3 he wished to go nome to make his will for fear he shoula die. A few months ago Baker was in the hospital suffering from delirium tremens. e e ta A Baby Swallows Creosote. Alfred Smith, a baby, living with its parents at 242 Minna sireet, got hold of a bottle of creosote iast evening and swallowed a portion of the contents. The parents were removing to another house and carelessly left the bottle where the blbi:ollld_ reach it. The baby was taken to the Receiving Hospital and every- thing was done for it, but it is doubtful it it will recover. W. H. BOOGHT THE SYNDIGATE J. W. Chipman of Indiana Secures the Mine for $100,000, Will Build a Ten-Stamp Mill and Erect an Electrical Plant. Captain John Haley and J, B. Peaks Say There Is a Large and Rich Vein. J. B. Peaks, who was formerly in the hotel business at Santa Cruz, and his partner, John C. Wilbur, have sold the Syndicate gold property twelve miles irom Raymona. in Madera County, for $100,000. The purchaser was J. W, Chipman of Indianapolis, who has for some little time been here examining the mine. He has now gone East. Associated with him in the purchase are other Eastern men. “The sale took place yesterday,’’ sald Mr. Peaks at the Palace, ‘‘and the amount paid us was $100,000. The purchasers will erect a 10-stamp mill at the mine to start with, with a capacity for the mill of ten other stamps. A complete electrical plant will also be put in. “The new owners will construct a tun- nel to tap the vein 140 feet below where | the tunnel is now. Our present workings are some seventy feet in leng:h. We first made a crosscut and then began to run a winze, “Tne vein shows about seventeen feet of good ore. An actual mill test of the vein showed §17 a ton after a loss ot $3 in tail- ings. The ore was hauied seven miles.” The property was formerly known as the Lucky Bill and was owned by Captain John Haley, who also owned the Enter- prise mine, from which he took $175,000. Captain Ha'ey had much other prop- erty. Heis widely known in mining cir- cles. He has lately examined the mine and bas a fund of inf rmation regarding it. He thinks well of it. “There is no doubt about the purchaser having alarge body of ore,” said he. “The ore runs from $10 to §18 a ton and the vein is from 18 to- 20 feet wide. I located this property, then the Lucky Bill and now the Syndicate, about fifteen years ago. It is twelve miles from Raymond and only three miles off the stage road on the way to the Yosemite. “The mine will be turned over to Mr. Chipman on September 1, at which time he will have returned from New York, where he went a few days ago. Mr. Chip- man is a railroad man, banker and coal- mine owner. He operated in Tombstone in the early days. kis home is in Indisn- apolis.” FORCED T0 REDUCTIONS, Lower Rates to Be Made Visalia by the Southern Pagcific, This Action Brought About by the Anticipated Advent of the Valley Road. to In anticipation of the advent of the Valley road into Visalia the Southern Pacific has made a reduction in freight rates to that section, which is to go into effect on the 15th inst. This reduction has been partly made possible by its recent acquisition of the branch railroad operated between Goshen junction and Visalia. Between San Francisco and Visalia the reduction will amount to $2 a ton on all classes of freight, and between Stockton and Visaiia the reduction will be about $1 40 per ton on all classes. The new rates between San Francisco and Visalia will be as foilows: First ciass, 66 cents per 100 pounds; secona class, 61 cents; third, 57 cents; fourth, 54 cents; fifth, $8 70 per ton of 2000 pounds; class A, $8 05 per ton; class B, $5 45 per ton; clasy C, $4 80; class D, $4 15; class E, $3 45. Between Stockton and Visalia the new rates will be as follows: First ciass, 61 cents per 100 pounds; second ciass, 58 cents; third, 55 cents; fourth, 52 cents; fifth, $8 10 per ton of 2000 pounds; class A, $7 45 per ton; ciass B, $4 85 per ton; class C, $4 20 per ton; class D, $355 per ton; c'ass E, $2 b5 per ton. It will be at least three weeks before the Valley road will be open lor general busi- ness to Visalia, though it is expected that the road will be completed to that point a week from to-day. It will be prepared to haul wheat from that town and all inter- mediate stations some time before the road 1s formally opened for business. It is the intention of the people of Visalia to celebrate the advent of the Valley road by a grand demonstration on the 9th of September. e A Fight for a Child.

A Number of New Boys Were Taken On, but Could Not Stand the Severe Heat. | The thirty-five boys who went on strice at the Union Iron Works Wednesday noon are still out and firm in their resolves not to go back to work until their demands are granted. A meeting was held yesterday morning at the Junior Standard Athletic Club’s rooms and a delegation was sent to interview the foreman, but could not make any satisfactory agreement with him. The foreman said if the boys would come back one by one he would re-employ them, but he will not recognize them as a body. This the boys refuse to do, asit would only be a case of going back at the same rate of wages. Tne whole trouble arose, the boys say, over the fact that thev nave oniy been re- ceiving from $2 95 to §5 per week, while in other factories the wages paid for the same work is §1 25 and $1 50 per day. The boys are willing to go back if they will pe taken in as a body and paid $1 25 per day. It was reported that a number of new boys were taken on this miorning, but could not do the work, as they were not accustomed to the heat. About 100 men | are thrown out of work by the strike. ————— A man is generally at his heaviest in his i fortieth year. NEW TO-DAY.
