He was at once | taken to the City Prison and charged with | an assault to murder. | Cole will plead self-defense. He claims | that when he accused Fallon of being too friendly with his female consort his rival drew a knife and threatened to make him a subject for the Coroner. Then, Cole | says, he whipped out his revolver and shot Fallon.

Andrew Holden, a plumber, who was re- cently divorced from his wife, got mad Wednesday night as he brooded over his troubles and started to drink. The more | he drank the madder he got, and he deter- mined to visit his divorced wife on Cen- tral avenue and have it out with her for securing the divorce. When he reached the house, after 10 o'clock, he found the door locked. He knocked loudly, but no one answered. He went to the street, picked up a rock and threw it at the house. The rock crashed through a window and struck Miss Lillle Knott, a_young lady who resides in the house, The crash was heard by Police. men Dunn and Mylar, and they arrested Holden on charges of disturbing the peace and malicious mischiéf. The cases were called in Judge Conlan’s court yesterday. but neither the complaf ing witness, Miss Knott, nor the arrestin, officeu appeared. The Judge eon(lnugs the cases till to-day and fixed Holden's bail at $10 on each charge. ¢ Holden told the .Yud{e that he threw the stone at the gate.

Gt LE On November 15, when bids are opened at the Naval Department, Washington, for the construction of battleships, cruls-| ers and other war craft, the great sh!p»' | building concerns of the country will find | themselves confronted with a new and | formidable opponent from the Pacific| Coast. The Risdon Iron Works, the old- est iron manufacturing firm in San Fran- cisco and, with one exception, the largest, has had a force of experts at Washington for some weeks who have been examining the plans of the new ships, and the Ris- don Company proposes to submit bids to secure contracts to construct just as many of the new vessels as it is possible to undertake. The success of the Risdon Company means much to every interést on the ‘coast, especially to the interest of labor. Every aaditional ship secures em- loyment of at least a thousand mechan- cs, as 70 per cent of the cost of a Govern. ment vessel is represented by this amount a bor. P e lgurchnse of the Paclfic Rollin MflYs. with the thirty acres of groun covered - by machine-shops, furnaces, foundries and rolling mills and with a thousand feet of frontage on deep water, the Risdon Company acquired the finest plant for the bullding of warships on this or any other coast. It will make its own steel castings, no matter what dimensions | they may be, and eventually will erect a lant for roifing armor-plates by which t will become independent of Eastern monopolists. The site of a great drydock has already been chosen, and the work of constructing it will soon commence. In a year's time the present establishment of the Risdon Company will be abandoned and the men and works concentrated at the Potrero. The population of that industrial section will be more than doubled. The chances of the Risdon Compan: curing a contract for one or more of the new vessels Is consldered extremely good. If the Pacific Ocean is to become an Amerfcan lake the naval forces of the Government will have to be Increased many times. It is at present totally inad- equate and the necessary increase has to | be drawn from the Atlantic squadrons. For this reason it is understood that the Naval Department is disposed to assist in building up a strong concern whose abun- dant facilities would not only permit a rapid construction of vessels, but at the same time act as a needed competitor to the strong pretensions of the Scotts. The Union Iron Works now employs about 4500 workmen and the Risdon Com- pany about 2000. In the event of the latter’s success in securing Government con- tracts the Potrero can rely upon an imme- ldIate increase to double its present popu- ation.

Since the recent humiliating episode on board the steamship Coptic, when pas- sengers were subjected to the grossest in- decencies, the feeling against the doctor and his brutal methods has been intensi- fied by complaints from merchants whose business has suffered by reason of delays in the mail, attributed directly to Kin- youn. “A repetition of the scenes that were enacted aboard the Coptic must be avoid- ed, and nothing but the removal of Kin- youn will insure reform,” sald a member of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday. “If our committee finds that this man has overstepped his bounds,” he added, “‘then | we shall not hesitate to demand his dis- missal or transfer by the V!fiumnnon horities.

Early yesterday morning the strange call echoed and re-echoed through the wards and corridors of the hos- pital. When the sound of the last note had died away, strange and startling were the scenes From out the various wards issued boys in blue, some on crutches, some on invalid chairs and others being helped The reason for all this strange parade of sick and wounded soldlers was an order issued by Colonel Girard that the patients must content themselves with the amount of hair allowed by army regulations, as the present invalid style of long hair was “unhealthy and unmilitary.” All day long the only sounds that were distinctly audible around the hospital were the ery of * With each clip beautiful curls or wavy locks, that had by careful manipulation been trained to stay “just so” on the brow of a gallant boy in blue, fell to the floo creased the look of apprehension on the face of the barber had given way to Locks of hair that in the world of art are called Titlan, but in army barracks entitle the wearer to the name of “Brick,” soon littered the floor.

The Merchants' Association will also take up the matter and all of these dom- plaints are likely to be strengthened by a sharp letter from the Southern Pacific Company, which has felt to no small ex- tent the ill effects of Kinyounism. According to an official of the company the quarantine officer's methods have had the effect of diverting business to Van- couver. “In addition to this,” sald the official, “mafls have been delayed and local merchants have had to suffer.” —_— e OWNERS THE PERSONS THAT SHOULD BE ARRESTED Real estate agents who were arrested for violating the new “‘cellar” ordinanee, almed chiefly at prohibiting Chinese from sleeping in cellars and basements of houses in Chinatown, appeared before Judge Cabaniss yesterday. They are John Fairchild, J. T. Harmes, H. W. Stowe, L. C. Babin and W. J. Laeza. They were represented by Attorneys J. C. Campbell, G. D, Shadburne and John G. Bennett. The point was raised that the owners and not the agents of the buildings were responsible under the ordinance. It was also urged that the leases had been made out before the passing of the ordinance, which was not retroactive. Attorney Campbell in his argument alleged that the Board of Health was overriding the law in pustlx:‘f such an ordinance. The Judge considered the points weil taken and dismissed the cases, but re- marked that his doing so would not im- r the validity of the ordinance. He BUGLE CALL SUMMONS SIICK SOLDIEI-ZS.
