NEW YORK SUCCESS NOT MURDERER HELD S T FOR THIS Y CAPTIVE IN THE * VALLEJD SWAMP Sin Bue Ying Tong Holds Out Against the Peace Proclamation. ——— Officer Bailey Leaps From a Window to Capture a Highbinder Armed With a Big Re- volver. et g o Sergeant of Police Shea was given in- formation last night that Jung Ah Lock, wanted for several highbinder murders and also for the shooting of Jue Hok, on Washington street, early on the morn- Ing of March 5, is being held captive by Chinese in a swamp near Vallejo. This morning officers will leave this city for the purpose of bringing him back. Jue Hok, the latest victim of the man now wanted by the police, is a Suey Sing high- binder and is at present being treated at the City and County Hospital. He will this morning swear to a warrant charg- ing Jung Ah Lock with the crime. Bhea was told that Hok's friends followed the man from San Francisco and finally lo- cated him. The Chief of Police was im- mediately informed and two officers, ac- companied by a Suey Sing man, will go to_the scene this morning. Strained relations still exist among the bighbinders. Two of the tongs now at war with the Suey Sings have expressed their intention of settling the trouble, but a third will not agree to any such pro- ceeding. The obstinate tong is the Sin Sue Ying and an amount of money wa subscribed yesterday to defray the e: enses of men who will be detailed to ring its leader, Song Hung, at present in hiding near Stockton, to_ this city. The Buey Sings are wiliing that the hatchet should be buried, and when the Sin Sue Yings can be brought to terms peace will prevail. It is probable that some time will elapse before this can be accomplish- ed, but the tongs declared, at a meeting held yesterday, that if a settlement was not soon effected drastic measures would be employed to stop the trouble and a peace proclamation bearing the signatures of two of the tongs posted in spite of the Sin Suey Yings. The highbinders were out for trouble last night. Ah Bow, a hatchetman arm- ed with a blg revolver, was captured after a long chase by Police Officer T. J. Balley. The officer run the man into a building on Washington street, where he jumped from a window. The policeman followed suit and soon landed the Chinaman in the California street station, where he was booked for having carried concealed weapons. —_————— OLD MAN RESCUED FROM A HORRIBLE DEATH W. W. Cox Snatched From in Front of a Rapidly Moving Train by Officer John Young. W. W. Cox, a man 75 years of age, residing at 1135 Castro street, was rescued | from a horrible death last evening by Po- liceman John Young, who, at the risk of his own life, snatched the old man from in front of a rapidly moving Southern | Pacific train. The rescue was made near the crossing at Valencia and Twenty-fifth streets as the 5:10 San Jose train was jour- neying southward. Cox, who is partially deaf, was walking rapidly toward the moving engine unconscious of his danger. Officer Young saw him and tried to attract his attention, but was unsuccessful. Young then walked along the track, thinking the engineer would slow up on seeing him. On account of a bend in the track at that point he was not seen by the engineer, 80 Young, realizinz that only instant action would save Cox, Tan toward him and pulled him off the track just as the train thundered by. Young barely got out of harm’s way, while Cox was so dazed by the sudden shock that he for a time did not realize how close he had been to a terrible death. When the truth dawned upon him the old gentleman was rofuse in his thanks to his brave de- iverer. g A e e e e e e o e e e e e e o ] —— e KILLED ON THE LINE. Railroad Commission’s Report Shows Astounding Loss of Life by Accident. The principal business accomplished at the regular monthly meeting of the Rail- road Commission, which was held yester- day, was the perfecting and adoption of the commission’s report for the year end- ing December 31, 1899. The report, which will be forwarded to Governor Gage, shows the mileage debts and earnings of the forty-five roads re- orting to the commission; this number ncludes all the subdivisions of the Southern Paclfic Company that come un- der the jurisdiction of this State. An interesting detail in connection with the report is the number of accidents it shows for the year. Of course these fig- ures include those killed or Injured on all the roads of the State, but as the number hurt on roads not belonging to the Pacific system of the Southern Pa- cific is so small as to hardly be worth the mention, the list may be considered as a report of Huntington casualtles. The report gives fifty-one as the num- ber of employes killed and 529 as the number injured. Of passengers and oth- ers not belnnglnf to the road seventy-five have lost their lives during the past year and 121 have been hurt. This gives total of 126 killed and 650 injured, greater loss than has occurred in action in Luzon in the same length of time. Some idea may be had of the profit that will accrue to the Southern Pacific Com- pany from its new insurance scheme when it s considered that it will prevent suits for damage and when the suits pos- sible in one State alone are shown by the above recorded table of horrors. The Commissioners will go to Los An- geles on March 26 to meet the members of the Interstate Commerce Commission who are to meet there on March 27. The Interstate Commission will meet in this city on April 2 and will be given the rooms of the State Commission in which to transact its business. —_———————— Savings and Loan Society Solicits loans on mortgages or trust deeds at lowest market rates. 101 Montgomery.* —_——————— MEETING OF THE Y.

HE more we see of “New York suc- cesses’”’ the less cause we have for acceptance, not to say tolerance, of these metropolitan “hits,” ‘“‘Be- cause She Loved Him 8o,” which was given at the Columbia last night, Is the latest, the lightest and least of these over-heralded offerings. It is an adaptation by Willlam Gillette of a farce by Bisson, but the effective comedy of the adapter’'s original efforts and the diverting inconsequence and lively humor of the French playsmith are never effectively express: The first act of “Because She Loved Him So” is hopelessly talky and dull and the want of action is felt for a full half of the evening's entertainment. There are minutes and minutes that seem like hours of insignificant dialogue and one is reminded Irresistibly of that flat failure (also a New York success) “The Cuckoo.” To make matters worse the players of the Columbia company do not succeed in making themselves heard and one finds one's self straining to catch an occasional word and wondering what it 1s all about. When the purpose of the plot finally asserts itself in the second act you begin to look for a little acting, and a little acting is the best you get. J. E. Dodson, who s almost famous as a character actor, has an old man part which he pictures to perfection, but there is little beyond his admirable make-up to make him notable. He did things in sup- port of Mr. and Mrs. Kendall that have not stuck in our memory and we unfor- tunately have not now the opportunity to judge of his versatility. Could we see him now in two or three or four parts he might develop a value that now one can only guess at, but as far as his work in comedy and character is concerned in the present production his occasional finesse is very much injured by inartistic exaggeration and clownishness that are not a part of the first-cut comedians. Miss Annie Irish, who has held our sympathy with an exquisitely fascinating icture of Southern womanhood in “A virginia Courtship,” is thrown away upon the part of Gertrude West, and Francis Carlisle was much better in “The Dark Secret” than he is in a frock coat and matrimonial squabbles. I have no doubt that Messieurs Bisson and Leclerque made much of the vital element in the plot of this play, which is briefly as follows: Owen West, who is young, and his wife, who is likewise, are forced into mutual suspicion and semi- estrangement through the machination of their servants. The father and mother of Mrs. West are informed of the calam- ity, and in order to divert the attention 01’ their daughter and her husband from their own inimical attitude they agree to disagree violently themselves. Mr. Dod- son and Misg Meek as the old couple do all that is comic in the play, and it is Miss Meek that succeeds in giving the true touch. She is frequently clever. Maggle Fielding in the part of an inde- perdent Irish maid 1s deliclous within the small compass of the character. She does the most truthful bit of acting in the play.

Mrs. Rika Jensen swallowed a dose of carbelic acid yesterday morning, and her death is simply a question of hours and minutes. Mrs. Jensen has been despondent and acting queerly for some time, and her desperate act of yesterGay came as the culmination of a series of threats to do away with herself. The unfortunate woman is the wife of P. Jensen, a professional nurse, and the mother of his six children, the eldest of which is 12 years of age, the youngest three. Jensen for some time past has been-pursuing his calling in the interior, and his wife, with their two youngest children, has been rooming at 310 Mason street. The older four- children are in- mates of the Franklin Home, where they were placed at the request of the family physician,’ the mother not being in a con- dition to endure the nervous strain con- sequent of havng so many children about her. Yesterday morning a lodger occupy- ing an adjoining room in the Mason-street house informed the landlady, Mrs. E. Vericki, that he heard groans coming from the room Occ:sled by Mrs. Jensen. Together they forced their way into the apartment and found the woman MWing un. conscious upon the floor. She had taken the acid while in bed with her two little children, Willle, aged four, and Carl, aged three years, and in convulsions re- sulting from the deadly drug had fallen from the bed to the-floor. he unfortu- nate woman was removed to the Receiv- ing Hospital and her husband summoned by telegraph from Sonora, where he is at present_employed.
