32 THE SAN FRAN ISCO CALL, SUNDAY OCTOBER 17, 1897 WL 10 REDUGE THE RATES Merchants of This City to Put On Opposition Lines of Steamers. EFFORTS T0 MAINTAIN BUSINESS. Eastern Capitalists Interested in Diverting Trade From This Coast. PROHIBITIVE TARIFF PU ON FREIGHT History of the Combine Which Seeks to Qontrol All of the Eastern Freight Traffic. The merchants of this ci'y are united in a supreme effort to break the power of the Eastern capitalists who control the Oregon Improvement Company and the Oregon Railway and Navigation Com- pany, and will endeavor, by putting on a | competing line of steamers between this city and Oregon, to get back some of the trade that has been diverted from here by those interests. The Eastern capitalists who are con- troiling those corporations are interested in diverting the trafic of all Fastern freight toward Portland and shutling out California trade by puttingin force a high tariff between Oregon points and this city, which prevents California merchants from urng a part of the Oregon trade, 10 which they are justly entitled. ! It ix supposed that the Oregon Railway | and Navization Company and the Pacilic Coast Steamship Company have secured | from the Eastern roads such a figure as would insure them against any n- curred should they not secure full cargoes from San Francisco. It issaid that tihe southern coast bu-iness has been handled in about the ame way through the har- monious working of the Southern Pacific | with the Pacific Coast Steamship Com- | pany. It is for the purpose of breaking the | combination of these powerful corpora- tions and to pr event them from diverting | the trade that rightly belongs ! ere that | the merchants are girding their loins to do battle for the sake of California’s in- terests. They are endeavoring to secure and place on the northern and sou.hern coasis a line of steamers that will carry ireicht at a re whereby no loss shail be incurred ibe steamers transporting | such freight. Itisa fightin which all the merchants should feel interested, and it 1s hoped that should they succeed in breaking the combination and reducing freight rates the merchants 10 a man will stand by the new orcer of things and not desert to tue euemy. The state of affairs which exists at the present time and which has called the merchants of this city to arms was brougiit about in the following manner. | Some fifteen years ago Henry Villara callea on Boston capitalists for a loan of | $12,000,000 to be invested in Pacific coast | eunterprises. The money was given o | him to spend as he deemed best for the | interesis of the capit He invested | vart of these millions in purchasing | Seattle coal mines and vessels owned by | Captain Sam Blair. Besides this he | bought the Pacific Coast Steamshinp Com- s, paving for ihem some- 00,000. This purcnase in- Pacitic Coast Railroad, running from Port Harford inland down through the Santa Maria Valley. Among | his purchases was a lot of 'imber land in Coos County, Or. The steamer Al-K: was | built in the East and brought out here, but when she arrived it was found that she drew too much water to cross tae Coos Bay bar. Villard sold the sailing vessels which he | had bought from Blair, but incorporated all the other interests, which included tie | coal mines, the steamship company. the Coos Bay Lumber Company, the Pa- cific Coast Railroad Company and the Fairhaven Railroad Company in Wash- ington, under the name of the Oregon Im- { provement Company. He then had constructed in the East the steamers Umatilla, Walla Walla, Willamette and | Mississippi, which latter was afterward burned at the dock in Seattie, In 1879 the Oregon Steamship Com- vany, which had a fleet including| the Ajax, Oriflamme, City of Chester, | Georze W. Elder, Columbia, and river | stearers, with 1ne railroads running out of Portland and througzh Oregon as far south as the California boundary line, was incorvorated under the name of the Oregon Railway and Navigation Com. vany with Villard as manager. The in. corporation is still in existence, with the exceplion that the name was changed | irom the Oregon Railway and Nayigation Company to the Ocean Division of the Union Pacific Railroad Compiny. The change was broucht about by an agree- ment between the Oregon Railway and Navigation Company and the Union Pa- cific. This gave ihe Union P.cific a | through line irom the East into Oregon, | with the headquarters at Portlana. As matters now stana the Cregon Rail- way and Navigation Company is control- ling the Ocean Division the same as here- tolcre, having done away with the name of the Ocean Division of the Union Pacitic Railroad Company. The steamers now on the Portland {ine are the Columbia owned by the Orezon Railway and Nayi- gauon Company, and the State of Califor- nia, which belonged to the old Paecific Coast Steamship Company, which has since been absorved by the Oregon Im- provement Company. Under this state of affairs the mer- chants of California are at the mercy of the Oregon Improvement Company and the Oregon Railway and Navigation Com- vany. Ly RIGHT, ’ With Every Assurance of Continued Success. A new enterprise, founded upon the use of honest goods, open methods and em- ploying home labor is the cigar manu- factory of M. Clark. & Co., 775 Market street, where the celebrated ‘‘Sanitary” cigar is made. Tihe name has been wisely selected for this cigar. It consists of the best Havana stock, 1s handled by healthy and experi- enced men, in the purest atmosphere and cleanest surroundings. This enterprise is worthy of tne support of every loyal San Franciscan who enjoys a good cigar. Be svre and ask your dealer for a “Sanitar=’’ cigar. - STARTED ————— As the supply of ivory is becoming A e e e e e T S T T T R HALE BRI 08, TWO0 IMPORTANT EVENTS: .

A Neat Device by Which Mongolians Used Uncle Sam in a Smooth Game, A vpertinent illustration of the wily nature of the Mongolian mind came to light yesterday, when the representativeso! three Chinese firms called upon Appraiser Dare and complained that they had been made victims of » confidence game to the extent of about $3000 by coolies who had taken advantage of one of the provisions | of the exclusion act. By law every subject of China in the United States is required to have a cert. e of revistration. Without such certifi- ca‘e a Cninaman found mak:ng his liveli- | hiood as a laborer must be deported to China. In case of the loss of such certifi- cate he may procure a duplicate from the Coliector of Internai Revenue upon prov- ing the loss. Copies of the criginal certifi- cates, with the photographs of the ho'd- ers, are kept on tiie in the Collector's office, and the duplicates applied for are | made from those copies. Thi: circumstance was taken advantage of by the cunning coolies to goldbrick some of their own merchants. Among the victims are the firms of Sam Kee & Co., Mow Tuck & Co. and Yee Sack & Co. | The firms mentioned have been doing a heavy business in coniracting to supply coolies to work in the salmon canneries in Alaska. Aboutayear ago it became a common practice for many of these coolies to obtain from the Chinrse firms advances ranging from $1C0 tu $150 each on their wages. The loans wers secured by the borrowers surrendering 1o their creditors their registration ceriificates, to be re- de-med by the payment of the debt at the close of the salmon-packing season. The employers in Alaska are notified by the | creditors ot the existence of the debt and | its collection thereby becomes easy. 1t occurrec, however, to some shrewd Mongols that it would be a profitable stroke of enterprise 10 avoid the payment of their obligations and at the same time l lo regain their registration certificates. The first step was to take employment at fome cannery other than the one with which the merchants had made contracts After working during the season they a_r:w their wages and returned to this city. The nexistep wa to cail upon the Col- | lector of Internal Revenue and submit short, villiard balls of cast steel are being used in Sweden. By making them hollow the weight is made to correspond with | ficates had been destroved in a fire or in a that of ivory balls. the perjured testimony of confederates 1o the effect that the registraion ecerti- shipwreck or nad been lost. Upon this show cates were ob- tained and the creditors were left with the original certificates on their hands as a drug in the market. Chief Deputy Steppacher of th2 Internal Revenue Collector’s oftice obscrved re- cently that applications for duplicate cer- tificates had increased to an alarming ex- tent, and be requested the last batch of | applicants to wait for atfew days. Mease | ures have been taken to detect the re- | maining swindlers by furnishing the Col- | 1 ctor with a hist of the names of persons { | | who have hypothecated their certificates. them as have already succeeded in cbiaining duplicate certificates will be arrested and vigorously prosecuted for | perjury. The exclusion act by this time has been riddied with holes. It isan act which not | ouly does not exclu'e, but which enable a cooly, by hiding his certificate or mail- ing it ahead of him to China, to pay a visit to his native country at the expense of the United States Government, to re- turn at his own sweet will to Mexico, and | to cross the border with his certificate in | his pocket. | The ihree firms named are not the only sufferers by this confidence game. About balf a dozen other Chinese firms in this city have been also victimized. GUARD UNIFORMS. The Board That Is to Award the Con- tract Opens Bid-, but Defers Action | Till To-Morrow. General Dickinson (retired), Colonel Horace G. Platt (retired) and Colonel James F. Smith of the First Regiment, composing the board that will award the contract for the furnishing of about 4000 uniforms for the National Guard of the Stute of California, met yesterday in the office of General Dickinson for the pur- pose of opening bids received in answer to proposais to furnish blouses, panta- locns, overcoats, hats and leggins. The bids were opened but the consider- | aticn of them was d-ferred until to-mor- row, as the members of the hoard were | too much occupied with previous engage- | ments to allow them the timec requisite to pass on the bids. A. Jacobs of 1200 Market sireet presented two bids for blouses and pantaloons. In one he offers to furnish these for $8 90 and in the other for §8 50. J Litchfield offers the articles at the fouowing rates: Blouses, $495; (rousers, 2 95; trousers, reinforced, $3 90; overcoat, without cape, $995; wita cupe, $1420; hats, $1 09, and leggins, 59 cents. B. Pasquale—Blouse and trousers, $6 75; overcoat, fuil lined, $925; hat, $1; cap, 85 cents; leggins, 54 cents: blouses and trousers reinforced, 75 cenis extra per suit. Pettivone Bros., shrough Colonel Thomas A. Nerny, inspecior of rifle prac- tic on the division swff—Blouse, $304; trousers, $2 51; hat, $1 10. Eich b.dder agrees to furnish what is wanted according to the specifications and sum ples. —_——e—————— A Queer Pony. Mason Gordk of Koberston County, owns a pony which is quite a freak in the way of horseflesh. Its height is 40 inches, its length 5 feet 5 inches, its head is six inches longer than its peck, its breast is like tha. of a cow, its hips like a hog's. It has 28 ribs, two more than are pos- sessed by the ordinary horse; is double jointed in every joint, and has four stifle joiuts. 5 This wonderful pony is Norman bred, 4 years old, and was purchased by Mr. Gordley in Fleming County. It weig! 285 pounds, its sire weighed 1800 pouniis, its dam 1200 pounds. 1t is, 1n fact, a **horse | contortionist.”’ lis legs can be spread out at right angles, letting its body down fiat upen the grouund. —————— ADVANCES made On_furniture and pianos, with witkout removal. Noouan, 1017-1073 Mis sion or THE BALL GAME NADE ALL WEARY Contest Between the Califor- nia Markets and Santa Clara Nine. It Was as Dull and Feature- less as an Egyptian Mummy. The Dead Ball Is Rapidly Becoming Unpopular With the Public. Well, well, well! What » game of baseball was played at Central Park yesterday afternoon! And the crowd, too! Oh, where was it? Out in the vacant lots of the Mission; on the Fair possessions at North Beach, and in South San Francisco youthtul national-game players, with a rubber ball, every day put up a greater exhibition than the public witnessed in the contest between the California Markets and Santa Claras. What about that Palo Alto vole that Sania Clara was to bring up to knock down the persimmons? The yame was certainly featureless. It was as dry and featureless as an Egyptian mummy. Inthe whole nine innings there wasn’t a play worthy of describing. the first half of the seventh Shortstop Wiliiams of the Markets made a reason- ably good pick-up of a ball hit by G. Foley, retiring the runuer at the initial cushion. K. Krug, four times at bat, is credited witn three bave hits, one of which was of the scratch order. Steffani twirled tive innings for the visitors. 1In the last half of thesixth he gave way to Doyle, Perriera taking Doyle’s place in the leit garden. The San Franeisco public is getting on to the dead-ball proposition. The attend- ance yesteraay was the smallest ever seen on the :rounds, less than 500 Seing pres- ent. The grand stand resembled a desert- ed mining camp, and the spectators on the bleachers were as scittering as goid- seekers on the Cnilcoot Pass. There was reason for this, and, as there is reason for everything, it is well to ex. plain. The basebail public is anxious to see Whrt promi-es to be a great same be- tween Stockton and Olympic to-day at Recreation Park, Eighth and Harrison streets. The game wiil be playea with a live ball. George Harper will be in the box for the visitors. Why waste two bits in these times of an appreciated dollar tosee a ball game played with a bean bag, when for the same sum you can witness a game ed with a live ball and by crack piay- ers, who receive 60 per centof the gross receipis? At Central Park the players only get 40 per cent of the receipis. The appended score, calamitous as it is, doesn’t tell the story of yesterlay’'s tire- some game. Scorer Humphrey is chari- table; in fact, 1t is surprising how much In | charity there is in the games at Central Park. AR R BH. SR To. A R H.

Beef cattle areat present scarce in Hum- boldt and adjoining counties, on account of the great demand and the good prices which have prevailed for the last few months. Such is the report brought down from that county yesterday by J. 0. Ericksen, cattie-buyer for Z. Kuss, Sons & Co., the largest stockraisers north of this city. Mr. Erickson came here on the steamer Pomona, bringing with him from Hum- boldt County 230 head of stock cattle con- signed to Miller & Lux. He stated that Humboldt County 1s experiencing a boom which he predicts will be felt by the whole of Northern California. here is a great improvement in all industries,” said Mr. Erickson. “The caitlemen are jubiiant over the price whicn they received for their stock. It 1s better than it has been for five years, and the prospects are good that there will be a | further advance. “Tue wool-growers are greatiy encour- aged by the udvance in the price of wool, ) better returns for their products than they have for three years past, and are conse- quently elated. Most of the butter which comes to the San Francisco market now is made in Humbo'at County. “The rort Kenyon condensed milk factory is doing a gocd business, and is turning out an excellent quality of con- den-ed milk. “‘On the whole, all of the interests of the county are in a prosperous condition.” Music at the Park.

A missionary at Tung Chow has invent- ed a Chinese typewriting machine. It is 8 great success. The characters number about 4000, and are on the edge of wheels about a foot in diameter. Twenty or thirty wheels are required to carry all the characters, and two keys must be struck to make an impression. The first turns the wheel and the second slops it at the required letter, which is then brought down to the paper. The machin is oo, plicated, but the inventor, Dr. Sheffield hopes to make it more simple. There arq 118,000 characters in the Chinese language, each representing a distinct word.

In reference to the statement which Goddard made’ vesterday that he would fight Choynski in this city if the Califor- nia heavy-weight would deposit a $5000 side bet, Eddie Greaney, the particular friend of Choynski, stated that he will cover any sum of money deposited by Goddard for a side wager, provided that Goddard throws up his match with Sharkey. Greaney is of the opinion thatif Goddard will fight Sharkey 1n this city in the face of the public feeling which is strongly against the recurrence of anything pugil- istic that smacks of hippodrome a match between Goddard and Choynski would lose much of its caste. Goddard is well aware of the fact that the sporting people of this city have | thrown Sharkey overboard, thatis so far | s his popularity is concerned. | Previous to his firht with Bob Fitzsim- mons, Sharkey was a popular favorite and had considerable backing, butthe result of his bout with the champion heavy- weizht 1s too fresh in the minds of the P20p e who patronize the gameo: fi ticuffs and it can be safely said that the Goddard and Sharkey meeting will notdraw enough dollars to pay the rent of the Pavilion, Certainiy 1if Goddard is wise he will re- fuse to meet Sharkey, and as he has no NEW T0-DA et s U *mt"flm**tmlt***l*t *“THE CREDIT HOUSE.” Six Stories High, This Roman Chair will put a touch of art into plain surroundings.

A match between the two Joes in this city would draw a great house. Tom O’Rourke and Johnny Mitehell, the president of the Occitental Club, drove out to see Lavigne at Blanker's Six-mile House yesterday alternoon. O'Rourke is very anxious that a referee tor the Lavigne and Walcott match be selected as soon as possible, for the reason that if a man with whom he is not satisfiea should be se- lected, he will pack up his traps and leave for the East. In speaking of the matter, O’'Rourke said that all he wants is a square deal, and that any old man who is honest and can be reiied upon to give a squars decision, will suit him. Walcott is in grand form now, and will have numerous supporters.
