The detention shed belongs to the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, which uses it as a storefoom for Chinese immigrants pending the de- termination of their right to be landed and their deportation when denied land- ing by the Collector of the Port. The shed is constructively the steerage of the Pa- |cific Mail Steamship Company and the | company is responsible for the safe keep- ing of the coolies. The company has watchmen and these are assisted by spe- | cial watchmen appotrited by the Collector and paid at the rate of §75 per month. Re- | cently eleven Chinese immigrants escaped from the shed through a back window while one of these specal watchmen was on duty. Collector Stratton announced yesterday that he had come to the conclusion that substitutions were much more frequent than is generally suspected. He belleved {also that the system of hiring speclal | watchmen is not judicious. system,” he added, ““and they are Hable to be dismissed ai any time and other men may be appointed to their places. | Seventy-five dollars per month under such | conditions is not much of an inducement when confronted with a possible bribe of | $500. 1 know that there have been Chinese in that shed, merchants in fact—but tech- | nically not such, hecause they may have | a restaurant or a pawnbroking establish- | ment connected with their business—who | cannot get in and who would gladly pay | $500 or 31000 to be landed.

There was trouble on the Sacramento River steamer Pride of the River yester- day and in consequenca fourteen deck- | hands walked out. The steamer brought down 7000 sackg of potatoes and when she docked all hands thought they were go- | ing to be paid off and the vessel tied up. Instead the agents ordered her out on an- other trip. The crew then refused to | handle the frelght for their pay of $30 a | month, but instead asked for 40 cents an | hour, 'the regular longshoremen's rate. | Their demand was refused and the men uit. the longshoremen were then called In and refused to handle the potatoes for less than 1 cent a sack, which averages nearly 50 cents an hour. The longshoremen were employed and by the time the cargo was out a new crew had been secured and the Pride of the River was ready for another trip to Sacramento. LRRER A Stowaways on America Maru. The Toyo Kisen Kaisha's America Maru brought twelve passengers into port ves- | terday who were not on the lists issued to the public.

All of the twelve are Japanese stowaways., When the vessel was a week out from Yokohama one of them was digcovered, and then every day thereafter until the steamship was near- ing port another was discovered. How so many of them got aboard no one knows, but the officers think they were helped by the members of the Japanese crew. e e Rival Steamships Depart.

Scarcity of Copies of Publication Opens Door to Speculation at Cost of the Pros- pectors. PDEEO NS A There is a great uproar in the State cver the last oil bulletin prepared by Pro- fessor Watt for the State Mining Bureau, and which was printed by the State print- |ing office. It is oply precurable at the | present time upon payment of from $1 50 | to 33 a ccpy. There are about 3000 incor- porated oil companies In the State. Pre- sumably every one of these companies has been a candidate for the possession of at least one copy of the bulletin in question. Prof:ssor Watt put in many months looking cver the State and studying oil indications. He took a camera along, and, the bulletin was illustrated with numer-' ous pictures, showing all about anticlines | and seepages and other things that are a | part of the furniture of the ofl flelds. | Every prospector was led to regard the | bulletin as a sort of ready handbook to oil lore, and the rush for copies when they | arrived in San Francisco was tremendous. | Ofl experts have inquired recently at the | Mining Bureau for copies. Mr. Jacobs, | the clerk who has charge of the literature | of the bureau, has told every one that | there were no more copies for distribu- | tion. Within the last few weelis track of | a few vagrant copies has been Qiscovered. | The second-haud book men are found to have a supply of them. They sold them out at net less than $1 50 a copy to a spec- ulator, and the same coples have been sold subsequently to ofl men for advanced prices. Some of these copies have been procured by Clerk Jacobs and he has Rlaced them in the way of inquirers. Now e wishes that ke had not tried to be so accommodating, for there are some who have nsinuated that he was making money out of the transaction. This he in- dignantly denies, and he is upheld in this | denfal by the State Mineralogist. There were only 3000 copies published. One-half of that number came to San | Francisco; the remainder were distributed in Sacramento. Every member of the Leglslature received copies. The disposi- tion of the other coples in Sacramente is not known here. From the indications many of them uitimately found their way to the second-nand bookstores, and the shrewd book men are reaping a bonanza. This is not a new feature of the Mining Bureau reports. They have been sold for years at a profit in the second-hand book- stores—sometimes at $5 a volume, though they cost the book men nothing. INTO A FOREST OF OIL DERRICKS To-Night’s Big Excursion Will Taks You. | The first popular excursion of the sea- son takes place this evening. It is from |Ban Francisco to Bakersfield, and is | given by the Southern Pacific in response | to the very general desire to see the oil | fields and understand from a practical Polnl of view what all this oil commotion s about. Hundreds of business men in this city who are more or less interested | in ol have never seen a derrick and all they know about oil is the din and babel | of the Oil Exchange. Going right into ths Kern River ofl fleids under ordinary cir- cumstances consumes valuable time anl | is somewhat expensive. This excursion reduces that fact to a minimum by taking no time out of business hours, cutting the transportation expense almost in half and giving a whole day for inspection. The special train, composed of Pullman buffet sleepers and day coaches, leaves at 7 o'clock and returns early Monda morning. Round trip to Bakersfield $10. | berth in sleeper and side trip to McKiti- | rick or Ofl City extra. William H. Men- ton, the well-known excursion agent, wili be on hand. ———e————— | BETHEL AFRICAN CHURCH FAIR MEETS WITH SUCCESS | Handsome Booths in Basement of Powell-Street Church Draw Large Attendance.
