Foote, 639 Kear- ny street,San Francisco, Cal.— Dear Sir: I am in receipt of your favor of May 8 calling my attention to section 4 of an act for the suppression of the IOk w EO w2 e s T m 23 ] o © Chinese houses of ill-fame, © approved March 31, 1866, & & wherein it is made the duty of ¢ & certain city officers, including b ¢ the Mayor, to give notice to 2 T all violators of the act. Ishall & % be pleased to comply with & your request and give notice & on receipt of the information ¢ ? which I understand you pos- & sess as to the location of such 3 & houses, and the names of their = I owners and inmates. Yours & & respectfully, b C;J JAMES D. PHELAN, Mayor. L T R R P e Eru e ts Y ) The way is clear for the eradication of the greatest , evil of Chinatown- der of all other evils in that quarter. a letter mailed yester to M.

It will remain then, he for the Mayor and | the Chief of Police to move under the law, | or to be moved by writ of mandamus un- der the law. The Mayor says in his repl that he will a ot as required. , who has not been officially complaint against the W, he_ does not 1y exist, refuses to say what he will do. now what I'll do when the time | s, be said last night to a reporter | r The Call. No matter what formation that the willingness to_accept will be forthcoming in a few da: soon as the agents of | the Vigilant Society make their reports | to the directory, and in as short a time as | possible it will be turned over to the | | Mayor, who will undoubtedly be as good | his word'and serve on the pro of ‘the one hun Cate ng the property owners nnt ir premises are purged of the evil they will be liable to criminal prose- | cution. Then will come the turn of the Chief of Police. If the slaveholders ignore e notices and the owners of prop- in which the dens are located refuse ta “obey the law it will be the duty of Lees to awake to a_law that gov- him and to do his duty long nes- lected. He must either issué or for of the houses see that they will be dragged into the arrest of the proprieto d or he court himself. That is the status to-day of the recently inaugurated crusade against the dens of vice where highbinders breed and where | murder is plotted. At the headguarters | of the Vigilant Socfety in the Sherman | block there is rejoicing over the fact that | a law, no_matter how innocuous from dis- nheeds only to be dusted to be ef- u fect THERMALITO HOME. It—Work of Rebekahs. The consideration of the supplementary report of the special committee on the condition of the home at Thermalito and the advisability of continuing it there fed the attention of the representa- all d . and when it was (:mn to adjourn at 5 o'clock the debate not closed. so adjournment was | an taken uptil 8 o'clockin the evening. At | that hour the discussion was resumed, | and at 10 o'clock a resolution was intro- | duced authorizing the trustees of the Lome to remove it and secure a new site. "his was lost by a vote of 298 to 192. An ljournment was then taken until § o'clock this morning. At _the session of the California Assem- LIy held yesterday there were received a number of additional reports from dele- gates as to the condition of their respec- tive lodges, and these showed prosperity. The resolutions presented the day before as to endeavors to secure further power from the Sovereign Grand Lodge to en- able the Rebekah division of Odd Fellow- ship to obtain recognition on the floor of that body and to be able to legislate as to benefits were adopted. It was deeided to reduce the age of ad- mission to the Orphans’ Home at Gilroy from 16 to 14 years. It was also declded to give the authorities of the home au- thority to return to guardians any chil- n who might be ungovernable. There are none such there now, but this action A resolution was offered having for its sentation to the assembly. Action wil taken on that to-day. A motion to allow mileage to delegates was los e e The Cooper Inquest. Coroner Hill began an inquest yester- | day morning into the cause of the death | of Joseph Cooper, the Powell-street tailor | who was asphyxiated in his bed last Mon- day night. Mrs. Phebe Abrams, Bessie Cooper and Joseph Cooper, children of the deceased, testified as to the finding of their father's body. The stopcock of the gasjet was partly turned on and it was loose, thus giving strong color to the theory that the death was accidental. Dr. Josef I. Monson tes- ied that he had been attending the de- sed for several months for heart dis- ease, and believed that he had died from | that ailment. Morgue Surgeon Zabala said that the autopsy revealed the fact that death was due to asphyxiation. The Inquest will be resumed this morning. i TRIED T0 END HIS EXISTENCE WITH A RAZOR v Major J. J.
