12 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, MARCH 30, 1900. TO RETURN A BRIDE Mrs. Fennell Has Gone to Los Angeles to Find Out if Colonel Marceau Will Keep His Promise. L e o o g Honolulu Merchants Com- mence to Realize They Have Been Bunkoed. Specialists From Japan and India Say It Was Typhoid—Herman Levy’s Relatives May Sue Government. A A The Debonair Colonel Says One Thing Over the Telephone and Another When Asked ConcerningHis Inten- tions Regarding the Lady. Private letters recelved in the last mail from Honolulu show that the business men of that city are just awakening to the fact that there has been a large per- centage of bunko game in the black plague phantom that has hung over the islands during the past three months, bringing with it business disaster, de- struction of property and the loss of mil- llons of dollars to the public treasury. A prominent business man of Honolulu now in this city has recetved word that on the eve of the sailing of the last steam- er a call was about to be issued by the Chamber of Commerce for a public in- dignation meeting. It 1s now openly asserted that there never has been a case of bubanic plague in Honolulu. L. E. Pinkham, a well- known railroad man from the Paradise of the Pacific, says that many learned doctors have been studying the alleged cases of plague, and say that not one of le cases that came under the notice of HORSE TRANSPORTS CAUGHT IN A SOUTHWESTER.

The assertion is made that the disease which carried off €0 many of the Chinese, Japanese and Hawaiians was nothing more than a malignant type of typhoid and pneumonia. Recentiy the streets of Honolulu have | been dug up for the laying of a sewerage system. For years, particularly in the Chinese guarter, the soil had been satur- ated with filth. When it was turned up noisome smells came from the disturbed ground, and it was predicted that dis- ease -would follow. A prominent sugar that the plague scare has already cost him $250,000, is in town, and expresses fieal indigination at the state of affairs. an Interview he said: “Sixty deaths from typhold fever and pneumonia in three months’ time would never be considered a very high death rate in Honolulu. The natives die readily from almost any disease that takes a firm hold on them. 1 believe that many of the Chi- nese patients were scared to death. A San Francisco paper recently stated that a Chinese fireman on a transport in this harbor who was merely suffering from lanter, who says beriberi died after ha\'ln% been put through a rigid examination by the quar- antine officials, lasting for an hour. The ship’s surgeon stated openly at the time that he had been frightened to death. If a Chinese makes up his mind that he is a very sick man he will die anyway, even if he had only a toothache. “The Board of Health at Honolulu has pounced upon every case of fever report- ed, and there is no doubt in my mind that their method of handling patients has often proved fatal. Take the case of Her- man Levy, the hotel clerk, for instance. Even to-day the Health Board will not assert that he is suffering from the lague, yet when the board first took up his case they had him removed, at 2 o'clock in the morning, while he was dan- ly ill, from his cottage to the pest. where he still is. His own physi- accompanied him ! cian says that Le suffered a relapse under this treatment, which will likely cost him his life or make him an invalid for the remainder of his days. $ “In any case, 1 understand that Levy's relatives will bring a heavy damage suit against the Hawalian Government, "If the suit comes to trial there will likely be many interesting developments, and" no doubt all available expert testimony will | Dohrmann, | tem of sprinkling the streets. world yesterday by a Liverpool firm coun- termanding two orders for wheat ship- ments from this port to Peru on the ground that bubonic plague existed here. The orders to load and the order coun- termanding the first order came the same day. Eppinger & Co. were the San Fran- cisco parties who received the communi- cations. They were ordered to load 500 tons of wheat to 530 forward by the steamer Hather, and tons to go on the succeeding steamer for Peru. e firm was in doubt concerning the meaning of these conflicting directions until a letter came from Liverpool this week explaining that the shipping orders had been revosed because of the report sent abroad that the bubonic plague had broken out in this city. TO SPRINKLE STREETS AS AN EXPERIMENT Supervisors to Aid the Merchants’ Association in Its Endeavor to Solve Dust Problem. The Supervisors’ joint committes on Streets and Health yesterday decided to recommend that permission be given the Merchants' Assoclation to sprinkle the streets of the city in a scientific manner as an experiment for thirty days. Action ure prohibiting sprinkling of bituminized pavements was deferred until the result of the experiment Inaugurated by the association has been reported to the com- mittee. C. Holbrook and Jeremiah Deasy argued against the repeal of the order on the ground that the sprinkling of bituminized Streets made them dangerous_to life and | limb. They were followed by F. W. Dohr- mann, who stated that the question of getting away with the dust of the city was a big problem which the assoclation was trying to solv’e to the satisfaction of all interested partles. “The problem may be solved,” sald Mr. “if you adopt a sclentific sy: Aning ments will be soon begun by sprinkling two blocks with salt water and two blocks with sweet water, and these might be on the ordinance repealing another meas- | CAUGHT IN A SOUTHWESTER OFF THE COAST Horse Transports Bound for Manila Are Having a Hard Time.

The Supervisors’ Street Committee yes- | terday decided to refer the matter of flx- ing the official grade of Bixth street to Chairman Maguire of the committee and Deputy Donovan, who will confer with the Board of Public Works with a view to establishing a grade that will be satis- factory to the property owners. A num- ber of taxpayers in the surrounding dis- trict addressed the committee regarding the bad condition of the street, Henry B. Russ stated the railroad com- pany recently raised tore up Sixth street and a certain portion of the street above other portions. Business in ighborhood has deteriorated, pedes- trians are deterred from traveling on the street and the proposition needs immedi- ate relief. Messrs. Napthaly and Gudskall made & plea for a uniform grade and said that the praperty owners are willing to raise the sidewalks and buildings to con- form to the grade The committee decided to restrict the decorations for the national Chinese fes- tival in the month of July to the streets of Chinatown. The parade will only be allowed to traverse those streets on the occasion. The Board of Public Works will be in- structed to request the Park Commission- ere to reopen the gates on Stanyan street, near Walier, so a8 to give citizens in the v y an outlet for the district south park untfl such time as funds are ilable to lay sidewalks on Frederick street from First to Second avenue, nich was deeded to the city by the Su- o estate and the Market Street Rallway ompeny. ———————— Civil War Veterans.

The action of the Street Committee of the Board of Supervisors in recommend- ing that the request of Consul General Ho Yow that Market street be decorated for the Feast of the Dragon, to be ob- served in this city during the month of June, be denled, has caused much com- ment among the Chinese. Ho Yow says the celebration will be conducted on a grand scale, and that it will bring thousands of visitors and dol- lars to the city. It will be the first ob- servance of such a feast in the United States and mfch interest will be excited. The Chinese, he claims, have been active in assisting in American celebrations, as shown by their gorgeous display in the last Fourth of July parade, and a refusal to allow them permission ‘o make a dis- glay such as they have requested would e considered a cause of resentment by | them and would discourage any future enthusiasm. The Consul and the Chinese will petition the Bupervisors to ignore the commit- tee's recommendation and permit their celebration to proceed. Died While on His Honeymoon. ‘Word was recelved here late last even- ing of the death of Rodgers Kendrick Hamilton, which occurred March 16, at Biarritz, France. - Mr. Hamilton married Miss Genevieve Green, daughter of Will S. Green of the Colusa Sun, in London, England, December 19, 190. They went on a wedding tour through Enfll,nd and | France. When they reached Biarritz, in the south of France, Mr. Hamilton con- tracted a severe cold, which developed into guick consumption. Deceased was a well-known English barrister and solici tor, and had quite 3 reputation as g liter- ary man. is widow went to Europe about three years ago to study languages and during her travels met Mr. Hamilton. She has contributed many interesting ar- ticles to The Call and had been selected to represent this paper at the Parls Expo- | sition. Time for Jury ‘rials Fixed. United States District Judge de Haven made a new rule yesterday to the effect that trials rxfljur{ will be held in his 1st to the Iith of each month. THE EXCLUSION ACT Chinese Consul General Ho Yow Ex- plains His Object in Conferring ‘With Merchants. Chinese Consul General Ho Yow s in- dignant at the story in a morning paper implicating him in an attempt to secure the repeal of the Chinese exclusion law. The article was based on the appearance of the Consul before the merchants of this city, to whom he appealed for better pro- tection for Chinese merchants, who are obliged to visit China at frequent periods and who have often been denled a landin, upon their return by the Federal authori- ties. The Consul made the following statement In justification of himself: When I met the merchants of this city a few days ago to discuss the provisions of an act which ~ excludes Chinese laborers from the United States I stated that certain hardships had been worked on the Chinese merchants. A morning paper has raised the question as to what wrongs the merchants have suffered, and T will attempt to explain. While the exclusion act only prevents laborers from landing, yet great difficulty has been experienced by the mercantile class in securing admittance to the country, and many have been held prisoners for days and, in some cases, weeks. This discour- ages trade, and I asked the American mer- chants to use thelr influence In rectifying the evil. 1 wish it stated that T am not in favor of an | said to be doing as well. influx of Chinese labor, and will make no effort to accomplish such a thing. —_———— Badly Bitten by Two Dogs. Irving Steffen, a boy 8 years of age, re- siding at 132 Oak street, was badly bitten on the left arm yesterday morning by two dogs. He was playing In front of his father’s house when the dogs commenced to fight. They bumped against the boy and both sprang upon him. A piece of flesh was torn from his arm, exposing the bone. He was taken to the Recer!ng 08- pital by his father and the wounds were cauterized by Dr. Bunnell.

A falr estimate is that the plague scare has cost Hawall $2,500,- 000 and possibly will cost twice that much in _damage to her commercial interests. The charge is made that the Honolulu Board of Health has kept in its employ as guards and inspectors the worst class of men in the community, paying $3 per day to men not capable of earning $20 per month. These men are political roust- abouts. It is charged that they get drunk on native beer and liquor and carouse with the very people they have been de- tailed to guard in quarantine. The quar- antine has been a farce all the way through, but it has cost the taxpayers a fortune. Honolulu people now in town are look- ing forward to a big sensation when the business men awaken and commence to inquire into the plague scare invented by the Board of Health.

His artistic sense is shocked every time he thinks of them in or about Golden Gate pleasure ground. The last blow was the erection of a sign on the wire netting that surrounds the new buffalo paddock at the end of the speed track. A, well-known steel and wire company, primarily out of pure charity, but incidentally with a view to business, donated to the Park Commissioners a wire fence for the new paddock, the condition attached to the gift being the erection of a sign showing the munificence of the donors. This was too harsh a mutilation of the wiry beauty of the fence, and Stanton ordered it to be con- fiscated. In speaking of the matter Mr. Stanton says that while the presentation of the fence was a very nice thing for the wire company to do, at the same time it 18 not so wonderful, and they should not advertise the fact in such an ob- trusive manner. Their sign was altogether too prominent, and was objection- able on that account. Then, again, there is an ordinance which prohibits the placing of signs in the park. The proper thing for them to have done would have been to have the inscription placed on a cornerstone and then buried, with the usual ceremorny, or something small and neat, say about a foot long, bearing an appropriate inscription. This would be the proper spirit to display. “‘As the matter stands,” sald Mr. Stanton, “it looks as though the wire company was looking for the advertisement and not seeking to beautify the park. Suppose Mr. Spreckels, who was kind enough to donate the beautiful music stand, was to have placed thereon a large sign reading, ‘Presented to Golden Gate Park by Claus Spreckels.” This would spoil the artistic effect and make it simply an advertisement. “If the wire works people object to the removal of the sign it shows conclu- sively that the fence was not donated in a spirit of public improvement—they were simply seeking a prominent way to advertise. The park is a pleasure ground, and not an advertising medium. As far as I am concerned they remove their fence.” bbb may |nia a worse one than any of them have met except the disastrous experience of the Siam, and news of how the animals fared is waited with some anxiety. Among seafaring men it is not thought for an instant that any of the vessels named have suffered to any serious ex- tent in the gale, but as to the horses and mules no one will make a guess as to the mortality. Captain Harry Struve of the Hancock thinks that if the three trans- ports hove to during the storm the mor- tality may have been slight. Barneson, superintendent of the transport service, is of the opinion that the loss of ani s will not be beyond the average. Still with the list of losses on the Lennox off Flattery dur‘ln% her former trip and the losses on the Slam In a typhoon on her last voyage the Government officlals are awaiting anxiously news from Ha- wail as to the Siam, Lennox and Port Stevens.
