THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 21, 1900. WARNER'S REMEDIES. VETERANS . Of the Grani Army ot the Republic, whose lot was fire, and blood, and prison pen for fecur terrible years, amost to a man, contracted dis- ease of somz form. When younger they withstood it bravely, but now that age is creeping on, and the vital forces more feeble, the need of a reliable vegetable tonic to assist nature is keenly felt. Toall such w2 can with confidence rec om- mend Warner’s Safe Cure—a remedy with a rzputation of twenty-one years of remarkable success in all parts of thecivilized world. Hun- dreds of veterans bless the day this great remedy was brough: totheir notice, not the least among whom being Comrade Frendenstein, who, under date of Tacoma, Wash., Jan. 25, 1900, gratefully writes as follows: e T SN e e T | I am pleased to say that I have the greatest con- idence in Warner's Sa?; Cure, as [ suffered for years with kidney troubles contracted in the army which nothing seemed to help uatil I tried Safe Cure, A few bottles did more for me than all the doctors and medi- cines previously tried.

PIEES N | Large Force of Paid Inspectors Will | Be Turned Loose in Chinatown | to Keep Away Bad Germs. A The odor of bad fish and decomposed pork stood but a ghost of a chance in Chinatown yesterday. Nothing but the | pungent fumes arising from chloride of | lime, that had been sprinkjed in copious quantities over the thoroughfares of the | Mongolian quarter, giving them the ap- | pearance of Washoe Valley after a snow- | storm, greeted the olfactory sense of the heathen, who has been afraid to die dur- ing the past few weeks lest the health | officials would feed his carcass to the ani- | mais in Kinyoun'smenageries,and who has | spent his time dodging the alleged germs | RERRERERRRRERRRRRRRRR RN § of the insidious bubonic plague. | The cause of the alteration in the scent | | which has characterized the. Mongolian | territory for so many years was the al- | leged discovery of suspected cases of bu- ' bonie plague, incidental to a “‘touch” on | the city treasury for additional funds, which was successfully accomplished at a dark lantern conference of city officials held yesterday. | The doctors who have been inspecting Chinatown for some time past are un- earthing corpses, whose mortalecolls have been shuffled off for some time since, They have been stowea away for burial at a period when the autopsy surgeon's knife is not so likely to penetrate their | yellow hides. The Chinese fear post mor- | | tem examinations, and they conceal the } bodies of their friends rather than apply for a burial certificate. When the bodics | are found they are badly decomposed and | highly discolo Such bodies are now | being autopsied by the health officials and termed “suspicious cases.” Two _cases | were reported Monday, and immediately | there was a little stir and the wires were “work' for an additional the streets and more rubbish hauled to smolder and annoy citizens on Pacific and Dupont streets, and yesterday the appro- priation was agreed Lo, The most “suspicious” case discovered was that of Lew Sung Wong, who died on Onedia place a coupie of days ago. Of- ! ficers were immediately sent to place the | house under quarantine restrictions and an autopsy was performed.

Fitch and Atterberg of the Oriental Hos: | pital, who, according to the Chinese Con- sul and managers of the hospital, say the | man had been sick for weeks A% a result of a secret conference held | yesterday morning in the Mayor's office | one hundred men, acting as sanitary in- | Spectors, will be turned loose in China- | | town to make a thorough and rigid house- | to-house inv | cating any suspected bubonic xist there. There were nference Mayor Pheian, ervisors Jennings and Hotaling Finance Committee, Dr. Wiiliamsen, chairman of the Board of | Health: Health Officer O'Bricn and Chief | of Police Sullivan. | Dr. Williamson made an urgent appeal for more funds to conduct lfi? sanitary | inspection of Chinatown and stated that | his course had been impelled owing to | the fact that there was another sus case of plague and further sald: I would suggest the employment of one hun- Auditor picious | dred men to inspect Chinatown. To this might be added fifty police officers, whom Chief Sul- | livan could be requested to press into service. | that would be sufficient for the | purpose. 1t would be advisable to erect a de. | tention hospital within the limits of Chinatown, | where al ted cases could be isolated, and | the unde ng parlors should be all centered [ 1n one ality. | Auditor Wells was of the opinion that { the money could be appropriated as a | matter of expediency and the Finance | | Committee appearing to be convinced of the reasonableness of the demand virtual- ly decided to recommend that an addi- tional sum be allowed the Health Board to prosecute the work in Chinatown. This will include a wholesale disinfection of | the district, besides the ferreting out of all | suspicious deaths. As an additional 'precaution two men | | wilt be detailed by the Board of Public | Works and one from the Health Depart- | | ment to_erect screens in the Chinatown | sewers, which sewers will be fiushed and | all dead rats gathered up and burned, as | the rodents are carriers of the germs, | The Board of Public Works will be asked to co-operate with the Health RBoard in | securing *he men to act as sanitary In- | spectors and a me=ting for that parpose | will probably be heid to-day. { NEW PASSENGER RATE FOR VALLEY TRAFFIC Southern Pacific Does Away With the | 0ld Twenty-Five-Cent Stock- ton Fare. Yesterday the Southern Pacific Com- pany lssued a circular to its agents con- | talning orders that will do away with the | | discriminating passenger tariff that has | heretofore existed between San Francisco | and points south of Btockton. The old rates were based on a 25 cent rate from Stockton to San isco, made necessary by the steamboat compe- tition. The present rate is the regular commission rate and will do away with complaints from the merchants on the line of road affected by the change. The cir- mol:l:{loufi(;‘d"!: it. limited fi the nst. limited first class rates— with the exception of those to and from Btockton noted below—between S8an Fran- clsco, Stockton and all intermediates on main or branch line, on one hand, and all Ent- in California south of Tracy and throp, inclusive, on the other, and all | rates based thereon, will be withdrawn. Limited rates now in effect between Stockton, Tracy, Bakersfleld, inclusive, and all intermediates on main or branch lines, and all rates based thereon, will re- main In force. These rates will be speci- fled In another circular to be issued im- | mediately. | WENT ON A SPREE AND | COMMITTED SUICIDE Mrs. Victor Beuvelet Mixed Carbolic Acid With Wine and Seltzer and Drank It. Mrs. Victor Beuvelet, a married woman, 21 years old, residing at 515 Kearny streer, committed suicide yesterday morning by swallowing the contents of a vial of car- belic acid. She had been drinking heavily for several days, and had poured the cor- rosfve poison into a glass contalning claret and seltzer water and swallowed tge mix- ture. : Victor Beuvelet, the husband of the da- ceased. told the Coroner's deputies that his wife had taken the poison by accident, but the woman’s assoclates ridiculed tha idea and said that they-had no doubt that it was a case of deliberate suicide. The body was taken to the Morgue and an autopsy held b‘:‘: Morgue Burgeon Dr. | Thomas B, W.

They were at work in the after hold of the ship, and to aid them in their labors they used a lighted candle. Gas generated in the hold and the men worked on without knowing its proximity. Winslow was the first to suffer. He advanced his candle into one of the NED BY recesses of the hold and there was a slight explosion. The flames ignited ‘Winslow’s shirt, and before he could stop their progress he was severely burned on the left arm. This should have been a warning to Anderson and Peterson, but they continued their work, unmindful of their danger. A few hours after the accident to ‘Winslow the explosion was repeated through the same cause, and both men were terribly burned about the head and face, and had to be removed to the Harbor Recelving Hospital for treatment. Dr. Deas worked on the men for over an hour in an effort to rellove their sufferings. After the burns on their hands, face and neck had been dressed and the injured parts bandaged the men were allowed to depart for their home at 708! Davis street. They will not be able to re- turn to their work for some weeks, as thelr injuries are extremely painful. : : : : : 4 : : : : ; : : § 4+ 040404040+ 04040 40404040+ 0 + 0+O040+0+0+ 0+0+0+0+ 040 TROPIC BIAD 5 N PORT WITH IALUABLE CARGE Makes a Quick Trip From Tahiti and Brings Lots of Tidings. S The Tropic Bird sailed into port yester- day laden with 20,000 kilos of copra, 24,200 cocoanuts, one case of mother of pearl shells. sixty-one tins of vanilla, six | cases of beans and one ton of coral. It took the vessel thirty-three days to come from Tahiti. Nothing of incident occurred during the long trip, fair weather being encountered all the way. There is every likelihood that the City of Papeete and the Tropic Bird will be with- | drawn from the South Sea trade, as th French mails, which both vessels carried, have been turned over to the Unioa Steamship Company of New Zealand, and mails from here will be carried by the Oceanic Steamship Company, News from | the islands in the far Pacific will now be | scarce and far between. When the Tropic Bird left Tahiti the bark Coldbear was | in port. Joe Humbel Missing. The parents and the police are searching everywhere for Joe Humbel, a resident of | Los Angeles. Humbel lately returned on one of the transports, on which he was employed as a deckhand. On his arrival in port he announced that he would .eave immediateiy for his home In Los Angeoles. Many days have passed, and his parents are very anxlous to learn his where- abouts. 3 Had a Bad Fall. George Dreamin while at work on the transport Columbia yesterday fell into the hold and broke his arm and was also con- siderably bruised. His injuries were at- | tended to at the Harbor Hospital bx Dr. | Thompson. Dreamin’s escape from death | was miraculous. He fell a distance of eighteen feet and struck on a quantity of iron stored in the hold. Rumor has it that the transport lfl" sourl will mot be used as a hospital ship in future, as too large a sum would have to be outlayed to place her in proper shape, and it is not considered that she is ‘worth the exmdnum. It is believed that the steamer iger, now at Mare Island, will be substituted for the Missauri and will be named Lawton, after the brava general who lost his life in the Philippines, Two well-known ships have been pur- chased by leading -h;&p;:f men of Ham- burg. They are the Forth, a four- masted bark of 3130 tons, commanded by Captain Cooper, and the Cambrian Queen, a bark of 1217 tons. SIMI, Ventura Co., Cal., March 2, 1900. R. 'T.
