It was decided to issue a call for volunteer medical men to £0 through Chinatown inspecting every one, but particularly determining exactly the disease of every one found sick. 'To that_end the following call was written out by Dr. Willlamson: To the Members of the Medical Profession: The Board of Health is about to commence section of the Chinesé quarter for the se of ascertaining the exact sanitary con- s and of taking steps to improve the 1d All cases of sickness are to be located all heir nature determined, and every effort to prevent the development and spread us disease.

Dr. Willlamson is- sued the following notice: TO EMPLOYERS OF CHINESE. You are hereby advised that the Board of Health is about to make an inspection of the Chinese quarter and may possibly find it neces- sary to place the district in quarantine. You are therefore requested to see that your Chi- nese help is free from iliness, and that they are requested to refrain from v nese quarter until further notice. It was decided also tosask the co-opera- tion of the Chinese Consul General for the se bt who would go with the med plain their errand to the inhabitants.

At night they were worse and would keep me awake a greater part of the night. I consulted doctor after doctor, as I was travelling on the road most of my time, also one of our city doctors. None of the doc- tors knew what the trouble was. I got a lot of the different samples of the medi- cines [ had been using. I found them ~ of so many different kinds that I con- cluded that I would have to go to a Cincinnati hospital before I would get relief. I had frequently been urged to try CuTicurA REMEDIES, but I had no faith in them. My wife finally prevailed upon me to try them. Presto! What a change! Iam now cured, and it isa permanent cure.

If that is not argument enough against the grinding combines 3 @ . P S S o >+Q was decided not to allow any refuse from houses of the district to be carted away. Instead arrangements will be “made to burn whatever rubbish accumulates. The Proposed Inspection. Dr. Kinyoun advised that when the in- spection is started that it be finished in one day. It would take at least 250 men to do it in that time he thought. He s gested, too, that the inspection be repea ed every day for at least fifteen days, that being the time within which 1t is supposed any case will manifest itself. A telegram from Surgeon General Wy- man, chief of the Wnited States Marine Hospital service, was read. He offered to supply the board with ‘“cure” serum and “preventive” serum for the disease if it was found necessary. Chief of Police Sui- livan said he would furnish all the pol‘ce for escort or guard or quarantine pur- poses that the board should ask for. That was the extent of the business of the meeting. It has amounted to no more than a gecision to inspect Chinatown, and, if possible, to clean ji—a matter that has been agitating the public mind for some time past. The board and the physicians mous in the opinion that there is no cause for alarm. It was even suggested that nothing be said of the majter at all, but as the volunteer inspecfors had to be called for it was found necessary to pub- lish the matter anyway. And, besides that, the Mayor sarcastically said he thought it was “too good a story for the papers to keep.”’ Unwittingly he gave his personal organ another wrap by the state- ment. It is not generally known that when the suspected case was first discovered the morning papers and the evening pa- pers, with the exception of the Exam- iner, agreed to say nothing about it at least until it was proved beyond a doubt that the case was one of genuine dplngue. All the other papérs had agreed, and When the fact was reported to the Ex- aminer it declined to be a party to the agreement, and in Its fierce desire to spring a sensation it not only refused to wait with the report of the case, but it telegraphed the whole story East to its yellow companion, tha Journal. This was done while the heads of other papers and the Assoclated Press were determined to walt furtner developments before risking the reputation of the city. When it became known that the Exam- iner was going to work of its own will, regardless of consequences, the other pa- pers could do no more than print the news. That is how the East got hold of the story that the plague was rife in San Francisco. It is not rooted in San Francisco, and thereis no possibility of it being here. The case reported from Chinatown, i1 it really be the disease, is a single case, growing up like a mushroom, and it is certain it has no fellows. It is like the case of typhus fever that appeared at the County Hospital some years ago. It came from no one knew where and it ended when it had claimed its victim. And there was a case of cholera in New York a few years back that started up fn the same way, brought death to its one victim and then stole away. No Cause for Alarm. None of the doctors who discussed the situation last night were in any way alarmed. The case calls for preventive masures, just as would a case of fever, but if only reasonable cleanliness is main- tained there can be no possibility of an- other case. The death of the animals in- oculated must be taken as pointing to a case of the disease, but even without such evidence the board has decided it must use the ounce of prevention, which may save the pound of cure. And n.nywn it is time Chinatown had a decent cleaning. ey e CONSUL GENERAL TALKS. Wijll Permit No Future Im- positions by the Board of Health. ‘When the action of .the Board of Health became known last night the Chinese Con- sul General, Ho Yow, said: “I believe that this is nothing more nor less than a ruse on the part of the Board of Health to prevent the liability of dam- age suits which have frequently been threatened on account of the outrageous act of last week. There never was, any bubonic plague in Chinatown, but if there was 1 would be the first person to assist in protecting the health of San Francisco. “The case In question was made the sub- Ject of a thorough examination by myseif, and I will not hesitate to say that the public need not be alarmed. The man was sick for some time and died.of an ailment which is common, though not con 01 and it the Board of Health had sto] to find out the history of the case before it sent the plague cry abroad its deter- mination might have been different. “If any more attempts are made to blockade the Chinese quarter we are pre- pared to dpl-oclln injunctions from the courts and will pmtecbtl the rights of our e e ot S i SRR o e e e HEADACHE, AND NO IKE IN THE HOULSE. RING FOR (CE \WATE O o e e i ol e o e ] for the sake of coolness and comfort, what more is wanted? ‘With the increase in the price of ice there is one individual who has the laugh on those who will suffer by the trust. In a single night the man with cold feet has been resurrected from the realms of de- rision and scorn and placed on a pedestal where_all may do him honor. He can wink his eve, at the iceman, and heated humanity may fight for the privilege of cooling "their parched . tongues on his frigid toes. OPPOSED T0 THE BEDPEAING OF THE PACETRACK Ministers Will Enter Their Protest Against Any Such Action. Large Delegation of Clergymen Will Attend the Meeting of the Su- pervisors To-Day—What H. J. McCoy Says. PO TR P It is a foregone conclusion that the In- gleside racetrack will not be granted the privilege of adding more victims to its already long list. The unfortunates who are now serving terms of imprisonment for crimes brought about through the temptations of the racecourse will not be joined by others who might fall from the same cause, as the members of the Board of Supervisors have expressed their de- terniination to vote against any ordinance which has for its object the reopening of the Ingleside track. The score of ministers who, on Monday last, appeared before the Board of Super- visors and presented resolutions passed by thelr ministerial unions will attend the meeting to-day and ask to be heard in the matter. They will point out to the board the dangers which would follow the re- opening of the track, the disasters that would result, the sorrow it would bring to hundreds of families and the curse that would be saddled upon the city. An earn- est appeal will be made to the members of the board not to sully their reputations at the outset of their career under the new charter by countenacing a measure which is certain to bring down the wrath of every- good citizen on their heads. Chairman Tobin of the Police Committee on Thursday last positively declared that his committee would be ready to report on the Ingleside track matter at to-day's meeting of the board, and Mayor Phelan invited the ministers to return this after- noon and he would grant them the privi- lege of addressing the board on this ques- tion. Members of every religlous denom- ination will therefore be on hand to pro- test against the passage of the proposed ordinance, & 11 J. McCoy, secretary ‘of the Young Men’s Christian Assoclation, made the fol- lowing forcible statement yesterday: “Nothing is more demoralizing to the voung men of San Francisco than the op- eration of a racetrack in the immediate viginity. Not only Is the vice of gambling ernicious -in itself, but racetrack gam- ling is doubly so because of the fascina- tion it seems to have for the average young fellow when he once becomes in- jated into its vicious mysteries, and be- cause of tne associations that are connect: ed with it. “The proximity of a big racetrack to a city means that the city will be overrun by the crowd of thieves, prostitutes, sure- thing gamblers, confidence -men and riff- raff that are always to be found following the horses and the men who make their living by running them. “This city in particular has had so many fearful examples of tb~ degrading influ- ences of racetrack blln% that it should never even so much as seriously consider a proposition to license the so-caued sport. There have been any number of tragedies that are to be traced directly to the influences of the races, suicides and murders. to say notning of the lesser crimes of defalcation and theft. “In my opinion it is the solemn duty of every citizen, who has the g name of the city at heart and who Is interested in preserving the moral welfare of his chil- dren, to fight the proro!ed reopening of Ingleside tooth and nail.” et ik GAMBLING A DANGEROUS EVIL. Rev. John. Carrington Expresses His Opinion o Racetracks. Rev, John Carrington, who has been for a long time engaged in missinoary work in Slam, delivered a very interesting ac- dress yesterday afternoon before an audi- ence composed of members of the Young Men's Christian Association.

He said that every one knew of the evils of gambling and of the corrupting intu- ence of a racetrack on the morals of a city. That many of the crimes that have stakmed the fair name of this city are gt- tributable to the evil influences of race- | track gambling is as well known abroad | as It is right here, and it would put San | Francisco in very bad odor when it be- came known that our city fathers had de- liberately reopened this modern casket of Pandora after they had once succeeded in | getting it tightly closed. SCHOOLBOY CAUGHT | STEALING PAPERS Lincoln Keeffe Gathered Sixteen From Doorsteps on Ellis Street Yes- terday Morning. _Reports are constantly being received from newspaper subscribers of their pa- pers being stolen, particularly Sunday mornings, and the police have repeatedly been instructed to keep a sharp lookout for the thieves, but owing to the cunning of the culprits in waiting till the officers left their beats to report off duty they have succeeded™in evading arrest. About 7 o'clock yesterday morning C. A. Park, a paper carrier, saw a’small boy sleallnirnpers from the doorsteps of houses on Ellis street, near Octavia. He watched him, and when he had gathered sixteen altogether he thought it time to call a halt and collared the youngster, handing him over to Policeman Wolters. The boy was taken to the City Prison and booked on a charge of petty larceny and | the sixteen papers were registered as | evidence against him. He gave his name as Lincoln Keeffe, a schoolboy, 10 vears of age. He intended selling the papers. He will appear before Judge Cabaniss this morning. ——————————— CHRIST THE SOCIALIST. Dr. Simmons —S;E of the Great Master’s Sympathy for the Poor. The Turk-street Temple was well filled last evening by a large number of Social Democrats, who had gathered to hear the speaker of the evening, Rev. L. W. Sim- mons. Dr. Simmons’ discourse was entitled “The Spirit of Sociallsm as Manifested by Jesus Christ.” In this title the speaker clearly defined the lines .on which he would talk. He started in by saying that he himself was a thoroughgoing social- ist in all that was implied by a correct understanding of the word. By a social- ist he meant one who loved his fellow man, and if one was a soclalist and lived up to its teachings he could not do other- wise than love and endeavor to help his fellow man. The speaker then went on to review the life of the Savior. He showed how he loved the poor and decried the amassing of riches and how his whole life was de- voted to the elevation of the lowly and the unfortunate and how gll his sympathies were forever on the side of the man who worked with his hands. ————— Wedding Invitations, visiting eards, Koh-i-noor pencils, Waterman fountain pens are our great specialties in station- ery depariment.
