Physicians were called, |and they could do nothing but pronounce the woman to be dead. The case was re- | ported to the Coroner. While there was no_external evidence of suicide, the cir- cumstances surrounding the death were | such as to raise a doubt as to the cause, | Mrs. Graves was Agnes Kelly when she ! married Fred Graves, about two years (ago. Because of her indulgence in liquor | Graves brought suit for divorce from her i nearly a year ago, but later the action was dismissed. While only 25 years old Mrs. Graves had suffered much from an apparently uncontrollable desire for in- toxicants, and if death were from natural cause it is suspected that heart disease was the trouble. Mrs. Graves had ex- hibited no suicidal terdencies and noth- ing was found in the shape of letters or papers to indicate that she had done away with herself.

Sallors are very scarce | and firemen are almost equally In de- | mand. On the Rush the sallors struck for | an advance of $5 a month, while on the | Alameda the men quit because they had to work while the ship was in quarantine. | On the revenue cutter the men quit be- | cause they could not get the same pay as | their brothers on the coasting vessels; | while on the Alameda the men quit be- | cause they had to work at all. On the revenue cutters the pay has been $35 a month for years for A. B.'s. The men have been glad to get the job at that | figure and hitherto a job on the Bear, McCulloch, Manning, Rush and Thetis has been eagerly sought after. The rea- son was easily found. On the revenue cutters the pay was good and the work easy. On a coaster the pay was the same as on the Government vessel, while the work was as hard again. On the cutter there were the decks to be washed down and the running gear attended to once a day. On the coaster the cargo had to be {dl!chn:fed and the outward stuff loaded on again. This marked difference made the revenue cutters much sought after, and when the strike on the Bear came it came as a great surprise to the officers. The vessel was ready to sail for Bering Sea and she was laid up for three weeks before the necessary permit from Wash- ington to hire men at the advanced wage could be procured. Then came the Manning last Saturday. Her men 3ult because they could not get $40 instead of $35. The Manning is still tied up at Unlon street wharf. The Rush was to have sailed last Fri- day for the Aleutian Islands, but her crew demanded extra pay and the cutter was tied up. Urgent messages were sent to Washington and on Saturday morning permission was received to pay the ad- vance in wages. A crew was secured in forty-five minutes and 10 a. m. the Rush was ready ta go sea, minus a bugler. Captain Cushing was not sure of his men, however, and on Monday he took the cutter for a cruise around the bay. There was fire drill, wreck drill, gunboat drill and every maneuver to which the men are likely to be J:\dt ‘while in the Arc- tic.. Vel in, s off well and the Rush went to se: esterday with a _crew which Captain Cushing classes as Al thelr noses to spite therr fz They got their pound of flesh (overweight) dur- | ing the run to Sydney and home again, but when San Francisqo was reached they asked for “trimmings>’ refused to work unless th coal or “fire.” As the ship was at anchor the only work was to "clean up” and “this was not legitimate work because the could pass according to the strikers. The men were brought up before the captain and | fined each one of them three days' pay. Yesterday there was a lively time while the vessel was being paid off, but the | United States Shipping Commissioner held that the firemen had commitied a gross violation of the law and that the fine must stand. All the firemen and coal passers on the Alameda quit, and on her next trip the mail steamer will go out with a non- union crew. Cleveland Under a Jury Rig. The steamer Cleveland, now being over- hauled and made ready for the Nome trade, had a hard time of it while on her way here from Hawall. Her thrust shaft broke and several minor accidents hap- pened, but nevertheless the stout old craft Weathered them all, made port without assistance, and after an overhauling came on to San Francisco as though nothing had happened. Tugs were sent out from Honolulu to look for the disabled steamer, but Cap- tain Klitgard was not idle in the mean- time. He made sails out of tarpaulins and other material. In this way he sailea is vessel into Hilo while the tugs were vainly searching the ocean for the Cleve. land.” It was a clever plece of work and shows that the old Cleveland in spite of her appearance can sail and steam and keep afloat when many a better looking craft would go down. | Water Front Notes.

PEERISS ST Warrant Issued for Arrest of Secre- tary Eaton — Corporation Will Fight the Case in the Higher Courts. Tax Collector Scott made an official de- | mand yesterday on the Pacific Telephone Company for moneys due the city under an old ordinance imposing a license tax on nickel electrical machines, and also under the order recently passed by the Board of Supervisors providing a license of 50 cents per quarter on all telephone boxes. Secretary F. W. Eaton, who re- ceived service of the notice in the ab- sence of John 1. Sabin, president of the company, who is In Portland, refused peremptorily to pay any license, and as a result of his refusal, at the request of the Tax Collector, District Attorney Byington instructed Wurrant Clerk Y _to pre-| pare warrants for the arrest of Eaton. In accordance with a letter sent to the company last week Deputy Tax Collector Edward J. Casey waited on the officials of | the telephone company yesterday morn- | ing and made three demands on Secretary | Eaton. The first was for the payment of | $2 per quater on each nickel telephone ma. chine operated by - the company sinc January 8, 1900, the date of Scoit's as- sumption of office. The second demand was for an jtemized statement of the number of telephones now and heretofore | maintained by the corporation, and the | third was for the payment of the license | of 50 cents per Guarter due under the new | order passed by the Board of Supervisors | on April 2. To each of the demands Eat- | on, through his attorneys, Pillsbury and | Sutro, entered an emphatic protest, and | the swearing out of the warrant was the | next move made at the instance of Tax Collector Scott. i Eaton. In explaining his refusal to com. | ply with the Tax Collector's demand. said | that it was the intention of the telephone | company to test the legality of the ordi- | nances in the courts. “We contend,” said Eaton, “that the | Board of Supervisors has no'right to im- | 8ose a license on our nickel machines. | ur attorneys are preparing a line of de- fense, and we will follow the case up loi the last court of appeals.” I Tax Collector Scott, however, Intends to | make it warm for Eaton. Scott says that | Eaton’s refusal to comply with the legal demand is clearly a misdemeanor and is punishable by a fine of $100. “Whether Mr. Eaton is convicted or not,” says Scott, “I shall continue to de- mand the payment of the licenses, and should he refuse I shall continue to pro- | cure warrants for his arrest.” U. §.
