Chinese Merchant Claims That a Most Daring Attempt Was Made to Kill Him in His Store. B ST A circular distributed throughout China- ago announced that Leong Ki Chew, one of the famous Chi- nese reformers, now at Honolulu, will be in this city next month. The document was written by Chew and issued at the instigation of the Chinese Empire Raform Assoclation, whose headquarters are on Washington street. In substance the handbill declares that if the dethroned Emperor is not rein- stated the powers of Europe will soon in- vade China and eventually control it. Chew implores the Chinese of America 19 use their efforts and money in behalf of the young Emperor. The reformer also states that while he is cognizant of the fact that the Chinese jovernment has placed a large price on his head he is willing to brave all danger and come to stir up an agitation ig Amer- ica. He says that he has but ene life to live and is ready to sacrifice It in the cause of his ror. Should Chew comn to San Fran he may experience some the Custom: e recelved positive in- struction to refuse him the privilege of :u'lllm? foot on American soil. Chinese Consul General Ho Yow, in discussing the circular, said it was a bold plece of work and belleves that the reformer is brazen in publically announcing his intention of visiting this coast. Ho Chee Ying, a liquor merchant at the corner of Clay street and Spofford alley, claims that a daring attempt was made to take his life yesterday morning. Ying, who is a Suey Sing, says that a lfif Sing man_entered his establishment, and after purchasing 10 cents' worth of whisky, drew a long revolver, and, pointing it at the merchant, pulled the trigger three times. The cartridges failed to explode, however, and the would-be murderer fled. ine highbinder difficulty is still far from a settlement. The police look for crime at any time and the work of search- ing Chinese for weapons still goes on. Chinese Consul General Ho Yow is wor ing with the police and making every ef- fort to restore peace. The members of the Board of Health visited the Chinese quarter last night and continued their prolonged tour of inspection. THEATRE FRANCAIS IS TO BE RECONSTRUCTED French Chamber of Deputies Votes a Heavy Credit for the Purpose. PARIS, March 19.—The Chamber of Deputies to-day adopted a credit of 2,400,- 000 francs for the reconstruction of the Theatre Francais, recently destroyed by fire, and for the provision of a temporary home for the Comedie Francalse and the eon. The finance bill was then voted in its en. tirety, after the Rightists had declared that” they would not participate in the vote. The Rightists defended thelr att!- tude on the ground, as their principal spokesman put it, that the Government's financial policy was leading France rap- 1dly to bankruplcg that its domestic pol- icy was creating hatred and Internal dis- sension, and that so far as its foreign policy was concerned the less said the pet- ter. M. Cafllaux, Minister of Finance, replied that instead of leading the country to ruin the Government policy was having the re- sult of placing ench finances upon a better footing. s 0B AN Railway Property Seized. VICTORIA, B. C., March 19.—Hon. Jos- eph Martin has introduced his regime in a_ highly sensational manner by seizing all the ties and timber on the Crows Nest Railway property for alleged non-pay- ment of royalty. Ex-Mayor M. D Gor- don of Kamloops has just refused the portfolio of finance in the Martin cabinet, while Dr. Watt of Fort Steele, former member of the Legislature and father of Superintendent Dr. Watt of Williams Head quarantine, has accepted the de- partment of lands and works, and is now en route to Victoria. | MAY PURCHASE FAIR BLOCK FOR BESIDENCE SITE Nob Hill Property Wanted by Florence Blythe- Moore. —_——— Price Offered Said to Be About Three Hundred Thousand Dollars—Flood May Sell the Baldwin Hotel Site. SR Mrs. Florence Blythe-Moore is negotiat- ing for the purchase of the block of land owned by the Fair estate on Nob Hill, bounded by California, Powell, Sacra- mento and Mason streets, and it s rumored that she contemplates the erec- tion thereon of a splendid residence. It cannot be said definitely that Mrs. Blythe- Moore intends establishing herself among the nabobs on the hill in a house of her own. It is a fact, however, the she ex- pects soon to become the owner of the | Fair block, which was considered a few years ago one of the most valuable resi- dence properties in the city, adjoining as it does the Flood property and being within a short distance of the Stanford and Huntington properties. In fact the deal is practically closed; that much was admitted by Manager Lee of the Fair Estate Company yesterday, but Mr. Lee declined to divulge the price that is to be paid or give any other information until the decds are passed. “‘Negotiations for the sale of the prop- erty to Mrs. Blythe-Moore are under way,” said Mr. Lee, “but a sale is not a sale until it 1& made and 1 can give out no information on the subject. would prefer that nothing be said about it un- til the deal is consummated.” It is understood that the purchase price will be in the neighborhood of $300,000, but as there have been no large sales in that locality for several years there is little data from which to make an estimate of the value of the property. C. P. Hunt- ington pald $250,000 for the Colton house, including a half a block of land, a few years ago and land In_that vicinity has certainly not advanced in value since that time. There i8 but one bullding on the Fair block, the old Porter residence, on the corner of Powell and California, now oc- cupied as a boarding-house. It is stated that tHe present tenants have been noti- fled to vacate, which would seem, if truc, to indicate that extensive improvements are contemplated in the near future. Another rumor of a more shadowy character, however, that has been ocir- culating in real estate circles during the {‘as( few days, Is to the effect that James . Flood has under consideration an offer from a syndicate of local capitalists for the Baldwin Hotel site on Market street. Mr. Flood paid Mr. Baldwin something over $1,200,000 for the property and rumor says he has been offered an advance of something like $100,000 or $150,000. Mr. Flood is saying nothing and I. W. Hell- man, who was mentioned as one of the members of the syndicate, says he knows nothing about it. SMALLPOX STAMPED OUT. Only Two Cases Had Appeared on the Cruiser Newark. ‘WASHINGTON, March 19.—Advices to Surgeon General Van Reypen indicate that the number of cases of smallpox oa the cruiser Newark was limited to two, as originally reported. The disease was contracted Ky two sallors who mingied with the natives at Vigan, in Northcra Luzon. The report of Assistant Surgeon Russell, attached to the Newark, indicates that these cases were successfully treated and the spread of the disease prevented. That the smallpox has been enm'els stamped out on the Newark is evidence: gI the fact that the vessel started from anila_for Hongkong to convoy the Mo~ nadnock. SRR Transport Service Inspection.

Bavage at the Re- ceiving Hospital. — Continues to Breathe Long After the Vital Organ Ceases to Perform Its Function—Death Due to Excitement. S gl Frank V. Savage, a one-armed man, died at the City Receiving Hospltal last night from shock' superinduced by excitement. A peculiar feature of the case is that the man'’s heart ceased to beat nearly an hour before death ensued. Savage had been drinking heavily for & long time and under the influence of li- quor displayed a disagreeable and quarrel- some disposition. Early last night he en- tered a Market-street saloon and acted in a boisterous manner. He threatened any one who attempted to stop him and his actions became so unbearable that the barkeeper was compelled to call for the police. Officer J. N. Beach responded and after a hard tussle managed to subdue the drunken man and get him into the patrol wagon. Savage was a crlpsle. his left hand hav- ing been amputated and an iron hook strapped to his arm. On his way to the prison he gave the officer a great deal of trouble and it was with great difficulty that he was held in the wagon. On reaching the City Prison Savage stepped from the wagon and walked to the sergeant's desk. In response to a questicn from Sergeant Bidwell, he gave his name and immediately after threw up his arms and fell to thg flocr. It could be seen at once that the man had fainted and he was hurriedly taken to the Receiving Hospital, where , Starr applied the usual restoratives. e man was breathing faintly, but the doc- tor was absolutely unable to find the least heart beat nor any perceptible pulse in the wrist. Respiration eontinued, but re- gardless of the application of all sorts of tests, even hypodermic injections of ammonia and coffee and artificial respir- ation, not one beat of the heart could be located. Savage’s condition remained unchanged for an hour, when respiration finally ceased. The cace s a strange one, very few of a similar character having been noticed by the medical fraternity. Savage was arrested a few months ago for assault to murder. In a moment of passion he shot his wife in the arm at | their home, 425 Twenty-fourth avenue. UNITARIANS TALKED ABOUT THE CHURCH Several Speakers Estimated the Po- sition That It Occupies in Rela- tion to Modern Conditions and Society. The Unitarian Club last evening at the Merchants’ Club discussed “The Place of the Church in Modern Life.” Sheldon Kei- logg presided. The speakers were Rev. Bradford Leavitt, pastor of the First Unl- tarian Church of this city; 8. M. Augus. tine, who spoke from the position of a business man; Professor Kendrick C. Bab- cock of the University of California, who has been engaged in the work of the South Park settlement for two years, and Rev. Mr. Hosmer of Berkeley. Rev. Dr. F. W, Clampett, pastor of Trinity Episcopal Church, was to have spoken, but he sent a letter of regret, in which he wrote that he was suffering from tonsilitis. Rev. Mr. Leavitt sald that one of the problems of the time was whether the church had lost its influence in any de- gree in the world. He thought that it was true that the church was less Influ- ential in certain parts of the world than it had once been, but the need for religion was never more strongly felt, nor was re- liglon ever stronger than it was at this time. People doubted much that the church held to be dogmatically true; but Christianity was not losing its grip, nor was the world approaching a refined kind of paganism. Immortality could nou be proved. There was truth underlying ag- nosticism. But man was not all inteliect. He had an_ethical and religious nature that must be taken into account. There never had been as much need of a true, real church as now. 8. M. Augustine said that God did not need the love of man, but man did need the love of man. The church should teach optimism and fit men to live rather than to die. In closing he eulogized “‘the sweet religion of humanity.” Professor Babcock said that there were thousands of men in the city who never ave any thought to God or to religion. Nevertheless true religion would awaken a response among them. What they want was that church people should show love in thelr lives ana deaiings with men as_well as in their talk. Rev. Mr. Hosmer sald that all the criti- cisms of the church were true, but the ('huéch would exist as long as soclety ex- isted. —_——e——————— JEWISH BAZAAR A SUCCESSFUL AFFAIR The Jewlish bazaar, which is being ziven under the auspices of the Ladies’ En- deavor Society for the aid of the fres school building fund at Golden Gate Hall, on Sutter street, promises to be one of the most pronounced successes of the sea- son. It opened Sunday night, and a per- ceptible increase was noticed in the crowd last night. The %ndles at the various booths are disposing of as handsome and elegant a collection of useful and fancy articles as was ever introduced at any bazaar in this city, and the efforts of Mrs. M. J. Wald- heimer, president of the association, have been heartily commended. The proceeds of the affair will be de- voted to a very worthy cause, that of educating the youth to upright and noble lives, and the ladles deserve a liberal atronage. The bazaar will remain open uring the week. RID BARBARY COAST OF BAD CHARACTERS Officers T. W. Hardley and Robert Con- nor of the California-street Police Station arrested nearly fifty of the well-known drunkards and loose characters on Bar- bary Coast last night, and charged each with vagrancy. Most of the persons ar- rested were men who have been booked at | the station on charges of drunkenness frequently and who have caused a vast amount of trouble to the police in that section of the city. The prisoners became s0 numerous at the California-street Statlon last night that a number of them had to be trans- ferred to the Central Station. — ee————— Subsistence of Jail Prisoners. 'The Mayor yesterday sent a communi- cation to the Board of Supervisors re- questing that the January demands the contractors for subsistence for pris- oners in the county jails be rejected and the matter be investigated by the Finance and Police committees. The Mayor’s ac- tion was the resuit of the recelgt of the following letter from Sheriff Lachmann: In accordance with sectlon 3, chapter 1, arth cle 4 of the charter I herewith beg to inform you that J. A. Snook & Co., the contractors supplying subsistence to prisoners, presented a deraand for 6325 ratfons furnished to Jalls ed Nos. 1 and 3 In January, when the number of In- mates showed that they were only entitled to charge for 4506 rations.
