There is in existence a Merchants’ Cred. it Association in this city which has done for the local merchants excellent work. Its fleld is distinct and does not trench particularly upon the fleld that the na- tional association has picked out for ex- ploitation. The national assoclation makes the claim that its work has les sened the number of faliures in the coun. try and has limited the number of frauds against creditors very largely.

Complaint Regarding Vegetables Growing on Public Streets. The Board of Public Works yesterday awarded the contract for removing gar- bage from the public schools to Antonio ‘alice for the sum of $82 50 per month, in- ing incineration. The award was e on the recommendation of the t Education, which also fixed 3 bond at $1000. The Bureau of Streets was instructed to | | investigate the communication of the | Sunnyside Improvement Club regarding the streets taken possession of by private rties and plowed up and planted with getables. The club petitions that the getables now grow/ng on blocks on ost avenue, Hamburg street, Mangels enue, Hearst avenue, Spreckels avenue, a Wielard avenue, Milton avenue and Gen- street be removed and the illegal ers dispossessed. The Civil Service Commission reported that “work cards” had been issued to | fifty more laborers, who would await In- structions from the board.

Harrison presided at the organ, and after a recitation, Colonel J. J. Tobin made a few introductory re- introducing the speaker of the evening. Hon. Frank Murasky sketched | in brief the gradual development of the citizen from the earliest time. Nothing in history, he sald, seems to have been so slow as the eclvilization of mankind. The arena of the Colosseum was perhaps the worst spectacle of human depravity that the world has ever seen, and just when the zenith of all that was brutal | and demoralizing was reached the world— the Roman world—was startled by the birth of Christ. This event was the one | event that had more to do with the civil- | cident | | “but it has been a slow process. zation of the world than any ether In- recorded In history. The true catholicity shown by the disciples, the | utter disregard of nationality that dis- | tinguished the early Christia | for the cause of true citizens! n, did more hip than all that had preceded it “‘We have improved,” sald the speaker, Grad- ually the spirit of that great and lowly Nazarene has leavened the mass of hu- manity. and is still bringing the world to a sense of true Christian citizenship,”™ The lecture bureau committee cons of: Theodore J.

Carl O. Tilberg, a ‘“quack” doctor, dled at the Recelving Hospital yesterday morning. Friday afternoon he was found unconscious in his room, at 765%4 Howard street, with the gas turned on, ther accidentally or intentionally is not known. The body was removed to the Morgue. Joyve | BRITISH VESSEL " HERE TO LOAD A ~ CARGO OF MULES |The Animals May Go | to South Africa. NEW GOVERNOR FOR TUTUILA e e WILL LEAVE HERE ON THE PHILADELPHIA. el ekl The British steamer Victorious, which arrived from British Columbia early yes- | terday morning, is somewhat of a mys- | tery. She was partly loaded with lum- ber at Chemainus, B. C., ax ostensibly to take on board a deckload of mul, nd horses for Fiji. Now Fiji can get mules and horses at a_much »w Zealand and Aus- her cheaper rate from N tralia, and the story of the Victorious’ to Suva or Levuka is taken with In fact, some of the crew trip grain of salt. of the big tramp say is Delagoa Bay and not Fiji. Still the Victorious may take on her cargo of over 500 mules and go to Fiji. That group of islands is about a fourteen | | days’ run from here and about a third of the journey to South Africa. At Suva or Levuka the cattle could be landed and given a rest, after which they could be shipped again and the journey to South Africa resumed. The British Government is buying large numbers of mules and horses in the United_States, and as the animals sent from California to the Philippines have proved a_great success it looks feasible that a shipment of the same animals would prove very valuable to the British ! | | in_the war nog raging in South Africa. | The Victorious s a modern tramp and | will prove to be a very comfortable horse | boat. She was bulit in 1898 at Newcastl | on-Tyne and is of 3434 tons gross burden. She is 330 feet long, 46 feet broad and 13 | feet deep. berth has been provided for | her at Fremont-street wharf and as soon as she docks there to-day the work of getting her ready for her long voyage will begin. The mules have already been purchased in Stanislaus County and will be ready for shipment as soon as the ship is ready to receive them. The cruiser Philadelphia went to Mare Island yesterday for an overhauling. As | soon as she is ready for sea again she | will sail for Samoa with Commander 8. Schroder, the new Governor of Tutila, on board. On his arrival he will relieve Captain B. F. Tilley, who is now acting Governor of the latest addition to the | possessions of the United States. Tutuila is the 1sland on_which is the new harbor of Pago Pago. FThe United States is now building a coaling station there and the chances are that Governor Schroder will take up his residence there. Apia, on the Island of Upolu, at which the mail steam- ers stop, IS now a German possession. The transport Sherman will probab! =ail this week for Manila. She was schel- uled to depart next Thursday with a load of army supplies and 400 casuals, but the cargo cannot be Kot aboard in time, so it wili probably be Saturday before she gets away. The transport Pathan had a narrow es- cape from turning turtle the day befoge | she reached San Francisco. She was very light, and when a squall struck her she went over until the lee rail was under water. Captain and crew thought she was gone, but the tight old steamer right- ed herself and all hands escaped with a scare. The Pathan is owned by the sanie people who own the Energia, which was in trouble on the Japan coast. Whea the Pathan reached Nagasaki the captain heard of the Erergia’s peril, and wiinout stopping to coal went to her assistanee. When he found that the Energia was all right the captain of the Pathan cams on to San Francisco instead of going back for coal. In consequence the steamer was very light when the northwester caught her off Point Reyes. Majér J. M. Carson, quartermaster of the transport Thomas, left for the Fast Jast night, and his place has been filled by Captain Charles G. Sawtelle Jr. Major Carson goes to Washington, where he will become chief of the bureau of construction of the quartermaster’s department. Captain Lew Williams. the famous old whaleman and Arctic explorer, has opened a dancing academy at 44 East street. Can- tain Willlams is a_past master at tea ing the ‘“‘Arctic glide” waltz and the “Es- kimo™ cotillon. The British ship Peleus, now discharg- ing at Beale street. is turning out her car- £o in a condition that reflects the greatest credit on Captain Shapland. There wns nearly a thousand tons of glass amoug the vessel's cargo, and the breakage hns been so small that the people to whom the stuff is consigned have again and again expressed their surprise and pleas- ure to Captain Shapland. The Peleus 1 chartered to load wheat for Europe. P —— OLOAmms__'__TBOUBm Cases Continued as a Compromise May Be Effected. The charges and counter-charges of battery made by the union and non-unfon cloakmakers arising out of the lockout in Davidson & Miller's establishment will probably be withdrawn. When the cases on Judge Cabaniss’ calendar were called esterday morning Attorney Bert Schies- ?nger asked for a continuance till to- morrow. He sald that hostilities had been suspended till this afternoon, when a meeting between representatives of the manufacturers and a committee from the union cloakmakers would be held with the object of arriving, if possible, at a satisfactory solution of the difficulty. The request was granted. The same proced- ure .was followed in regard to the cases in Judge Fritz's court. e ————— AFFAIRS AT YOSEMITE. - Commissioners Meet to Audit Bills and Hear Petitions. The Yosemite Valley Commissioners held a meeting vesterday at the offices of W. ‘W. Foote in-the Claus Spreckels building, but owing to the iliness of Mr. Foote and A. J.

Decker, a dentist, who has an office at Sixth and Howard streets, is locked up in the City Prison charged with passing a fictitious check. Decker owed a saloon-keeper named W. A. Sullivan $40 and gave him a check for the amount, which he claimed he had re- celved from the manager of The Call. The check was signed “S. W. Leake,” whereus | the name of the manager of The Call is W. 8. Leake. Sullivan presented the check for pay- ment at the Columbian Bank, in the | | Spreckels building. a few days ago, and| | was promptly informed that the paper | was worthless. The matter was at o reported to the police by the bank officlais, | and Detectives Tom Gibson and Harry Reynolds were detailed to make an investi- | gatlon. They located Decker yesterday | afternoon on Howard street and took h | into custody. After being put thro | the sweating process he admitted his guilt. | Decker is the individual who a short | time ago betrayed an escaped criminal to the police for a monetary consideratic. He was taken into the confidence of sc eral friends of the fugitive, and after h. ing told his mdlng&:acs‘ went to police headquarters and offered to betray him for $50. This offer was accepted, and aft receiving the money Decker took the d tectives to the house where the esc: was in hiding and assisted them in c | turing him. It is said that Decker | been in the babit of uttering forged | checks, but always managed to escape ar- rest until the present time.

Wearing a uniform on the shoul- ders of which appear the epaulettés worn by a United States officer, beating the bass drum, led by one of the women carrving the flag, t Ioan makes a nightly trip through the principal streets of the city, stopping at such places as there appears a chance to collect a crowd, and horting those who listen to contribute to & Nniesion.”” of which he is the solitary repre- sentative.
