Yesterday he was walking along Market street, when he met two affable strangers who volun- teered to show him the sights. After vis- iting several saloons one of the men sug- gested that they call on a friend who was living on Post street, between Powell and Mason. Rodgers at first objected, when told that the “friend” was a recent arrival from the Klondike and had “money to burn” he consented. As they entered the house they were met by a well-dressed individual, who effusively reeted the trio. After a short conversa- tion Rodgers was ushered into a well fur- nished room, in which three men were en- gaged in playing a frienuwy game of draw poker. Rodgers watched the game a while, and finally dazzled by the “phony” greenbacks and checks that littered the table con- sented to take a ‘“‘hand.” You ought to skin these guys,” whis- STRANGER FALLS INTO CLUTCHES 0F A GANG OF CARD SHARPERS Henry Rodgers of Washington Relieved of $530 by Bunko Men in the Manner Peculiar to Their Kind. e but | | “Rodgers pered one of the men who had steered Rodgers to the house. ‘“‘Walit until you get a big ‘hand’ and then soak them.” ers did not have long to wait, for| s, Qealt four kings a ' few minutes after he had taken his seat.

MARKET STREET CABLE BREAKS AND CARS STOP Tie-Up of Several Hours Results From Parting of Great Wire Rope. By the parting of the Market street cable yesterday afternoon the entire sys- tem under the control of the trunk line was brought to a sudden stop. The cable parted about 8:15 o’clock. It requireud sev- eral hours to locate the ends. As soon as they were found and hauled into the splicing shop at Valencia and Market streets the splicing process was started The cars started again about 9 o'cloch and ran till 1. Then a permanent splice in_the cable was begun. ‘The present cable has been in use for a number of years and this is the first time that it has delaved the traffic. A new cable will be one of the necessities of the corporation in the near future. The Market street cable is compelled to do all the hauling for the McAllister, Hayes and Haight street lines, between their junc- tions with the main artery and the ferry and for the Valencia street line entire length. = McAllister and streets have rellef cables from their junc- tions with Market street, but when the trunk fs affected the whole system is nec- assarily tled up. TWO MEN STABBED DURING SALOON ROW Albert Heins, a Marine, Arrested on a Charge of Assault to Murder. Albert Heins, a marine, got mixed in a fight at 443 Bush street early veste day morning, and Is now in the Ci Prison on a charge of assault to murder. Both his eves are swollen and blackened, and he showed other signs of having been severely punished. His recollection of what happened is very hazy, as he ad- mits he was considerably under the influ- ence of liquor. It appears that Heins got into an alter- cation with F. Courser and H. Frazier, and words led to blows. Heins opened his ketknife and succeeded in stabbing 'ourser five times and Frazier once be- fore he was knocked out. Helns was ar- rested and booked on the charge of as- sault to murder. Courser was sent to the Receiving Hospital, where his wounds were stitched and dressed. Swim at the Crystal Baths.
