The entire coast seems to be partieipat- ing in the drenching that is being received at San Francisco. From all over the State come reports of a heavy rainfall and the Sacramento River is still up at the dan- ger mark, the last bulletin giving Its height at 24.5 feet, with an upward ten- dency. Taking the different sections of Califor- nia, the average rainfall is as follows for the localities of the places mentioned: Red BIuff, .04; San ancisco, .02; Luis Obispo, .06; and Los Angeles, .0L From Northern California, Washington and Oregon come reports of storms of wind and rain. Storm signals are being displayed all tlong the coast from Neah Bay to Port Harford and, as the bad weather in the north seems to be travel- ing slowly to the south, the people of this section of the coast may expect another drenching before they have done with the weather clerk.

A pecullar case was taken from the cor- ner of Washington and Kearny streets last night about 9 o'clock to the Harbor | Hosplital.

DANGEROUS MAN CAPTURED CLEVER RUSE PRACTICED BY A PAID ASSASSIN. —_— The Chinese Merchants' Association at 728 Commercial street has declared against the continuance of the highbinder war which has been in progress for the past three weeks in this city. Their edict was issued at a meeting last night, which was attended by the leaders of the war- ring tongs, and is direct and to the polnt. It declares for the immediate cessation of hostilities and threatens serious inter- ference on the part of the Merchants’ Assoclation if the mandate is disregarded. The actlon taken by the association is because of the injurious effects the trouble has had upon the Chinese trade in this city. 1’!10 trouble between the Hop Si tong and the Suey Sing tong started in the in- terior of the State and eventually drifted to this city. Already several murders have been committed and more have been planned. The condition in Chinatown at the present time is such that members of the various tongs are afraid to venture on | the highways at night without a body- guard, lest they should be made the tar- et for a highbinder bullet. Large prces fave been placed on the heads of certain { Chinamen and the fact that they have not yet been killed is simply because the as- #assins have not found an opportunity to earn their reward owing to extra police precautions which have been taken. The Merchants’ Assoclation has a stand- ing reward for the apprehension of crim- inals, in an effort to euppress crime. " The state of affairs is such at present that they feel the inefficlency of rewards and | they have issued a strong warning to the | partles at war. | One of the highbinders captured on | Thursday night is supposed to be a hired | assassin who 1§ wanted for several mur- | ders throughout California. His name, as | given at the police station, s Hong Fook, | | and he halls from Chico. He has been posing in the light ~f a peacemaker and | recently accompanied the police oficers, pointing out the Suey Sing warriors, laiming that he was the interpreter for he Hop Sing tong. He had three arrested last week on the complaint that they were implicated in the murder of Hom Teong, and on the strength of his statements the men were placed in the tanks. On Thursday morning he informed | the officers that he would depart for Chico to be gone for a week, but instead of fo!ng he disguised himself and, securing a arge gun, promenaded the streets of Chinatown that evening In search of a | victim. When he was taken by the police a number of Chinamen identified him as a well-known slayer. A thorough inves- tigation will be made of his case by the po) ice. The excitement had not subsided last night, and while the police captured no | highbinders with guns, still, Sergeant of | Police Anderson received information that a highbinder had been seen on the street with one In his possession.

There is not peace and harmony exist- | tng between the Ship and Steamboat Join- | ers’ Protective associations and the house | | carpenters. The cause that has led to this unpleasantness dates back to the | time when there was a demand for ship joiners to work on the Government ves- sels. At that time the house carpenters | were sought to work on the vessels. Since then work has become somewhat dull at the water front and the services of the carpenters are not required, yet they in- | sist upon applying for work on the ships, much to the displeasure of the joiners. Complaint has been made to unfons 483 and 22 of the carpenters to call off some | of their men from the ships. For some reason those unions have | acted dilatorfly In the matter and as a consequence the grievance was taken into the Labor Council for adjustment. This body referred the whole matter to Its ex- ecutive committee with full power to act. At the meeting of the council last night it was decided to submit the matter au- | thoritatively to the unions mentioned for | | definite action before the council locks | | horns _with the so-called offenders. A | | similar action was taken with reference | to some offending members of the mu- sicians’ union. —_———— Forgot Himself. | Employver—You say that your habits are | all correct? | Applicant—Yes, sir.
