MR, CHENEY, FROM CHINA, WAS VERY NEATLY BUNKGED ~+|Fell Into the Hands of a Gang and Lost All His Silver Bullion. B ol An Accommodating Friend Agreed to Change the Precious Metal Into Money at the Local Mint. LGl W il Robert Cheney, a recent arrival from China, made the acquaintance of a gang of bunko men Monday and in a very short time parted with $20 in cash and silver bullion of the value of $110 which he car- ried around with him in a bag. Cheney was walking along Market street, when he was approached by a well-dressed young man who pretended to be a stranger in the city on his way to Honolulu. Cheney was induced to go to a lodging-house at 413 O'Farrell street, where he was Introduced to William | Green, alias ‘‘Judge Bates,” and Charles Bates, alias “Willlam Davis,” two of the | best known bunko men in the city. Green | | was represented as the assayer in the | Mint, and Cheney handed him the bag with the silver bulllon which he was to exchange for coin., Cheney’'s voung friend and the other two began a game of poker, and Cheney's friend lost and borrowed $20 from him. He would not part with more coin, as his suspicions became aroused that something | Was Wrong. Sergeant Tobin had seen the bunko man and Cheney go into the O'Farrell-street house and he telephoned to police head- ! quarters. Detectives Ryan and Dillon were sent to the place, and as the bunko men and Cheney left the house they were | | all arrested, with the exception of Che- MRS.

To this circular the boss teamsters are disposed to pay but littie attention just at present. They say the time is too short to make the sought-for concessions, and, further, that the great majority of dray men and teamsters have yearly contracts with merchants and shippers which have | been made under existing conditions. To | change these at such short notice would | be a direct loss to either the merchant or the hauler. Terms and competition are | so close that any figures increasing the rate of hauling would go far to upset the relations existing between merchants and | consumers. The demanded increase of | wages must be borne by some persons if insisted on. It follows that the consum- ers must be called upon to meet the loss, for as it now stands the haulers cannot afford to lose it, as they are down to the lowest margiu of expense.

He says he is fully prepared to register that number of voters with dispatch, and will keep the office open from 8 a. m. until midnight to.do it. A force of fifty clerks will be on hand to take depositions. ‘Walsh bases his estimate on a comparison with the registration of 1898, which was 72,000. The natural increase should raise the figures to 74,00. The total reglistration up to and including last evening is 71,500, leaving 2500 yet to be enrolled. The registration at the City Hall was 60,500, while the precincts returned about 11,000, i L 2 e e Y fruit team- cents; work- nd a half; Campaign.
