Evidence Against the Dealers to Be Presented to the Collector. A Cigar Manufacturer on Stockton Street Said to Head the Gang. The scare received by the importers of Chinese slave girls some months ago, when their methods were thoroughly ventilated through the columns of The Call, seems to have subsided, for the wily Mongolians are aguin at work at- tempting to evade the law. There are now on various steamers in | port from the Orient, ten or a dozen Chinese girls who are awaiting an op- portunity to get ashore. These girls were brought over from China, osten- sibly as the wives or daughters of mer chants residing here, or as native | daughters. As usual each one was thoroughly coached before leaving China as to what to say regarding her birth, and were it not for the fact that sometimes Chinese memories are not perfect the girls would have no trouble | to get ashore, but there is such a dis- crepancy between the stories told by the girls and the witnesses whose help they are landed that the collector of the port has his suspicions aroused and places obstacles in the way of successful consummation of the scheme. The girls In port at present, or at least four of them, have been brought over by a man who runs a cigar manu- factory on Stockton street, between Jackson and Pacific streets. This man disclaims any ownership in the girls, but those who are in a position to know say that he is at the head of an association which deals in slave girls, and that since the subsidence of the scare he has been especially active. The association has ramifications in all the coast cities, and it is claimed that the recent persecution of Dr. Gardner, the official interpreter, was a part of the scheme, as he was in the way, and it wa- mainly through his efforts that the schemers were put to trouble in getting the girls ashore. They thought that if they could get him convicted of accepting bribes they would get him out of the way and have a clear field. The ease with which Dr. Gardner cleared himself of all taint surprised them and then they tried various devices to get him out of the city until they could get the present batch of girls ashore. His return last week upset their plans and now the slave dealers are casting about for ways to again get him out of the way as the collector will wait much longer before he orders all the girls sent back as he did the one last Wednesday. The Stockton street man, who is said to be the head of the importers, denies any complicity in the matter,, and, strange to say, his name was not known to the officials of the Chinese bureau of the custom house. Chinese who are well acquainted with the man and the workings of the association, however, say that the man is the real head of the importing company that it was through his advice that the letter was sent to China some months ago telling that end of the association to send no more girls until the talk had ceased. Those who are opposed to the landing of the girls are at work gathering evi- dence against them and will present it to the collector in a few days and ex- pect to have all the girls sent back to China. They will also present a mem- orial to Collector Jackson asking him to take measures to have stricter watch kept on the imported girls so that they | may not be approached by the Chinese until after they have been thoroughly examined by the officials of the depart- ment. through | not | and | SUNDAY, JANUARY 9, 1898. RULES FOR THE - POLICE COURTS Important Suggestions Of- fered at a Meeting of the Judges. Assignment of Cases to Be Taken From the Police Department. Orders of Discharge to Be Given Only by the Trial Judge Who Will Accept the Bonds. The Police Court Judges met yester- day afternoon In- Judge Joachimsen's | chambers to formulate a set of rules | on the same principle as the Superfor Court Judges. The prosecuting attor- neys of the courts had also been in- vited to be present. The only absentees were Judge Conlan and his prosecuting attorney, Mogan. Judge Conlan tele- phoned that he would be unable to be present as he was very busy otherwise, | but no excuse was received from Mo- gan. Judge Campbell, as presiding Judge, was called to take the chair and How- ard Vernon Jr. was appointed clerk of the meeting. A number of important suggestions were made, among them those referred to in Friday's Call, and it was decided to think them over and meet again to- morrow afternoon to finally act upon them. One of the most important is that the cases be equally divided among the | four departments whether the arrests are made by warrant or not, upon the order the presiding Judge. The of clerks of the four courts will alterngte in the work of a: would take the the igning the cases.

No Rules, No Board, No Man- ager, No Preliminary Tests. Simply a Place Whers the Young Working Women May Rest Happily. The Rev. John Wilson, pastor of the Howard-Street Church, belleves in an ounce of prevention. “The work I advocate is not so ple- turesque, it is not nearly so easy to iInterest others In as reclaim- ing the viclous. It's odd, vet It's true, and I suppose it's human na- ture, but for ten good women who will work to reform an erring sister there is only one who feels it her duty to pre- vent that sister’s becoming wayward. “My wish is to found here a co-oper- ative home like that I founded in New | York. Within thirty minutes’ travel from my church there were at least ten institutions where dissolute women would be received and cared for. There was not one place where a respectable, virtuous girl, temporarily out of work | or working for very low wages, could find accommodation.” There does seem somathing novel | about a plan for the comfortable hous- ing of girls who have not that clalm upon society which is a covert threat. The only revenge that lies within a working girl’s power upon an indiffer- ent, well-fed world is to become a | charge upon it. But to do that she must deteriorate morally. Dr. Wilson says: “Good women are not interested in needy women unless the latter are naughty.” There is another point about Dr. Wil- son’s plan which has been successfully | operated in New York for four years, that is delightfully novel. Hereisan institution absolutely with- | out rules, without a board, without a | meddlesome manager, with no barri- cade of preliminary tests and qualifi- cations, with no strangling red tape re- quirements to discourage those who would enter and to stifle those who are | already members. Are you a decent woman? Then come | in. male or female, who visit you shall be | no more restricted than in visiting you at your own home. In fact, you shall | be treated as though you were human, | though poor. The cost of this to you will be $2 per week, and you will have | | the privilege of using laundry and sew- | | ing room. | _“Everybody has an ideal,” said Dr.| Wilson.” “Mine is to establish the sort | of atmosphere there is among the them while any department of the daughters of a big family on a farm.

And| when a girl i{s homeless, when she | doesn’t earn enough to house and feed | | her, leaving out clothing, what a slight, a fearfully slight barrier there is be- tween her and depravity! “A woman, a working woman gave me the first $50 I received in New York to start a home there. We got a base- ment, but it was steam heated, and we put in twelve beds, curtained or screen- ed into something like privacy. Then { there was a large sitting-room. This | was thie beginning. Now the co-opera~ tive home occupies a flat with quarters | for eighteen boarders. Each girl was | expected to keep her own room in or- | der, and when girls who could not af- ford to pay the home’s prices were ad- mitted, they were given work to do that would pay for their board. “Pecple have asked me if I found the girls grateful. “I have simply answered that they didn’t owe me or any one else grati- tude. It's purely a business arrange- ment, tempered with just a little mer- { cy and humanity. But Mrs. Wilson and I—it is she who is the real head in this undertaking—have found innumer- able cases for whose sake we were grateful that there was such a place in the world. “There is need for such a place in San Francisco. People do not realize how many women are working here who earn barely enough to keep them. They should have a home, a good home, which they can pay for, and which will no more be a charity than the educa- tion of our sons at Yale or Harvard is, though it costs four times as much to maintain those institutions as is patd in for tuition. “With $500 a home could be provid- ed for young working women, which if each fifteen members paid $2 a week, would be self-supporting. If rent and | furniture were provided such a home could be started immediately. It should be located near town, so that girls might be spared carfare and loss of time. “Think how little this is, in compari- son with the sums expended for the re- | clamation of the weak and wicked! | And think how much the number of | these might be diminished were one- | tenth, yes, oneone-hundredth, given for the benefit of these who are strong and virtuous enough to resist temptation. “This scheme is perfectly practical.

HALL & RUCKEL @ opriefors LONDON =——R3I0Q) The annual Christmas Tree Festival for the children attending the St. Ig- natius Sunday School will be held this afternoon in the church hall, on Van Ness avenus and Fulton street. The | hour of this festival is not made public owing to the fact that the teachers of the Sunday School want none but the children to attend. At previous festi- vals of this kind grown people from all over the city would attend in large numbers, amd it is for this reason prin- cipally that the exact hour will not be mentioned. Toys, candy and everything likely ‘to please the children have been provided at the expense of the Jesuit Fathers. The idea of giving toys as presents originated with the - Jesuits, and re- places the old custom of givipg pray- er-bocks, holy pictures and other re- ligious mementos. It has been the custom heretofore to have an entertainment in conjunction with the Christmas festival, but this feature will be abandoned this year for the principal reason that it does not in- terest the children, and as the festival is held expressly for the benefit of them it has been decided to entirely do away with it. *“It is more like a penance than an enjcyment for th® children to sit and listen to operatic solos and uninterest- ing recitations,” said one of the priests “and in view of this fact I think it is wise to strike this entertainment from the general Christ- mas programme.” The students of St. Ignatius College | g, will end thelr retreat this morning by recelving holy communion in a body at | the 8 o'clock mass, to be held in the basement chapel. This was the regular | annual retreat, and was participated in by the students of the entire college. The Rev. Father Finigan had charge of the preparatory classes, while the 2 Rev. Father Van der Erdan conducted the retreat for the boys of the advanc- ed classes. ‘The new half-year term of the Jesult College will commence to-morrow morning, and applications of students desirous of taking courses should be Absent Mindedness, Bashfulness, Hou to 11 DONT WANT MONE Y UNTIL YOU ARE CURED!

An additional feature of this year’'s | eurriculum will be the teaching of mod- ern languages, free of charge, to stu- dents desirous of studying them. This project was commenced a few months ago, and as it proved very suc- cessful it has been decided to put the advantage of mastering these lan- guages at the disposal of all the stu- | dents of the gollege who care to study them. There'are two courses of Ger- | man to be taught; one to the prepara- tory classes and an advanced course to the collegiate classes. The first meeting of the session will be held by the Boys' Orchestra next Thursday evening at 7 o'clock in the basement of the college. This orches- tra is composed of boys well advanced in the study of music, and is consider- ed by the Jesuits and such laymen as have heard it in public concert to be one of exceptional merit. Twenty-five promoters of the League of the Sacred Heart will receive diplo- mas on the evening of the feast of the Epiphany, which will be observed next Tuesday.
